VDM stood right in front of the army and police blocking the Ministry of Defence and told them the truth they didn’t want to hear.
He said:
“After 35 years of service, there will be nothing to show for it. You have a gvn that you cannot use to protect your own family but you are using it to protect this terrible government. They travel by flight but you travel by road because you cannot afford it.”
He wasn’t talking to the enemy. He was speaking directly to the soldiers and officers themselves.
That’s what makes this different. He didn’t just confront the system... he reminded the men holding the gvns that they too are victims of the same system they are protecting.
The real problem is not the men in uniform. It’s the system that puts gvns in their hands and turns them against their own people.
To the men in uniform, there is still time to wake up. Because one day the uniform will be gone, the salary will stop, and you will return to your villages to face the same poverty, the same bandits, and the same insecurity you were used to shield others from.
That day, you will remember this moment and ask why you didn’t do the right thing while you had the chance.

@ekehanthony1@VictorManjul@Clinton207O Inside your own country you're begging for peace and dodging like a slave and you think you're living?
You don't know that running from danger is only prolonging your capture, one day you won't have where to run to and you won't have strength left to fight back.
What then?
Unity is the answer. The truth is, most of us want the same things. To be loved. To take care of our families. To live with peace and dignity. To matter.
Understand that the division of yourself and from others has been forced upon you. We have more in common than we have ever been told.
@DemonFramed No, you don't brute force these things.
Killing yourself will only result in your death.
You shouldn't strive to be Elon musk; with/without the backing of the state
The only effective solution against bad and violent people are good people more skilled in violence.
