HATE AND ANGER AS HINDRANCES TO Human EVOLUTION
Or Economic Progress,if you may. Also political, social
Ferdinand Marcos was toppled from power in the so-called Edsa People Power Revolution. That was more than 30 years ago. They wanted to change the socio-economic political conditions with the mind-sets that did not go beyond hate and anger. Obsessed with what happened in the past--atrocities, human rights abuses, perceived murders of those who fought the "dictatorship"(their), and other grievances, they miserably failed because they could not shake off the old habits that overwhelmed them--greed, betrayals, revenge.
They could not shake off the hate and anger that dominated them.
Meantime, did they and this generation ask why Mr. Marcos proclaimed martial law in 1972? What was the situation in the Philippines and the world at that time?
For the young people, especially those students from exclusive colleges and universities, mostly in Metro Manila, why don't they ask questions and make their research and read history during the period?
Why did Marcos proclaim martial law? Was it to extend his term/power as elected president?
Who is Jose Maria Sison? Was the "hero" Ninoy Aquino a communist? Who killed him? Why was he killed?
Did the CIA had a hand in the ouster of Mr. Marcos? Did the CIA kill Aquino? If it did, why?
And many more questions that need answers and explanations.
Dagiti Sansanuong iti Aringgawisda
Wenno Agar-arimasa a Gura ken Pungtotda:
"Ukinam Marcos. Lastogka Marcos."
Such expressions in the streets in Metro Manila can only come from infantile and decadent minds that invalidate whatever cause they are fighting for.
Ay, anian a bunga dagiti baribar a pampanunot.
Ay, ania ket ngatan a lagtolagto dagitoy nga Ilokano
kontra kadaydi Marcos.
