@ellonico He was objectively the best Pope that there ever was and probably ever will be, as there will never be another Jesuit allowed to become Pope.

🟡 NEW: Around 100 Maoist guerrillas from the New People’s Army engaged in gun battles with Philippine government forces in Bukidnon. One FA-50 fighter jet from the military went missing. The conflict escalates ahead of the NPA’s 56th anniversary celebrations later this month.
A Communist must never be opinionated or domineering, thinking that he is good in everything while others are good in nothing; he must never shut himself up in his little room, or brag and boast and lord it over others.
Remembering Filipino revolutionary Jose Maria Sison on His Birthday 🇵🇭
Jose Maria Sison was a revolutionary, poet, and the founder of the Communist Party of the Philippines (CPP). He was also a supporter of the Tamil Eelam struggle.
Sison joined the Lavaite Partido Komunista ng Pilipinas in December 1962 and became a member of its executive committee in early 1963. He also served as Vice Chairman of the Lapiang Manggagawa, which later evolved into the Socialist Party, and was the General Secretary of the Movement for the Advancement of Nationalism (MAN).
His early activism focused on organizing youth movements against the Vietnam War, the dictatorship of Ferdinand Marcos, imperialism, bureaucrat capitalism, and feudalism. He played a key role in introducing and promoting the study of Maoism as an essential part of the struggle for national liberation.
On December 26, 1968, Sison founded and led the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Philippines (CPP), an organization based on Marxism–Leninism–Mao Zedong Thought. His political ideology and leadership were shaped by his experiences as a youth leader, labor activist, and advocate for land reform.
During the dictatorship of Ferdinand Marcos, Sison was imprisoned for nearly nine years, most of which he spent in solitary confinement. Despite this, he continued his intellectual work, writing prolifically while incarcerated. One of his most influential works, Basic Principles of Marxism-Leninism: A Primer, was smuggled out of prison in 1982 by his wife, Julie de Lima.
Sison saw deep parallels between the Filipino struggle for national liberation and the Tamil Eelam movement. As he famously said:
“The struggles of Filipinos and Tamils are similar—both are fighting for national liberation.”
His Most Famous Poem: “The Guerilla is Like a Poet”
The guerrilla is like a poet
Keen to the rustle of leaves,
The break of twigs,
The ripples of the river,
The smell of fire,
And the ashes of departure.
The guerrilla is like a poet.
He has merged with the trees,
The bushes, and the rocks—
Ambiguous but precise,
Well-versed in the law of motion,
And master of myriad images.
The guerrilla is like a poet.
Enrhymed with nature,
The subtle rhythm of the greenery,
The inner silence, the outer innocence,
The steel tensile in grace
That ensnares the enemy.
The guerrilla is like a poet.
He moves with the green-brown multitude,
In a bush burning with red flowers
That crown and hearten all,
Swarming the terrain like a flood,
Marching at last against the stronghold.
An endless movement of strength—
Behold the protracted theme:
The people’s epic, the people’s war.
“Here’s the resistance, unbroken.”—These were among the first words of the freed leader of the Marxist Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), Mohammed Ghali. He was released from Israeli prison under the ceasefire, having served more than two decades behind bars.
