ngelihat clip gitabumi choir di hari yang sama dengan terjadinya unjuk rasa, rasanya sakit bgt ya... it's always about i really love this country, but never the system. negara secantik ini, tapi para pemangku kebijakan ngancurin yang ada di dalamnya :(
ditengah kekacauan gini, gapapa bgt kok kalo emg tetep kerja, family time, main game, telfonan sm temen/pacar kalian talking abt happy things, jajan makan enak, jalan2 keluar (even we cant barely get some fresh air bcs of the tear gasses, wear ur mask) to stay sane.
yg penting gak tone deaf dan ngata2in yg lagi merjuangin indonesia fomo, berisik, bikin macet, sok tau, caper dsb nya ya. ini semua juga buat elu.
You know how brilliant their idea to choose Bundaran HI sebagai tempat "aksi" mereka adalah? It’s because they know Bundaran HI adalah pusat titik keramaian Jakarta.
Choosing Bundaran HI means maximum exposure. Akses ke semua lapisan masyarakat itu potensial banget buat attract publik. From the corporate slaves stepping out of their Sudirman offices, people commuting, to the general public—everyone is literally there. It is the ultimate hub to get eyes on your movement.
Plus di Bundaran HI, segala jenis transportasi umum ada. It’s the literal heart of Jakarta's transit. So obviously, the traffic will be disrupted. But honestly? In modern activism, that disruption is a feature, not a bug. When the traffic gets a bit chaotic, people are forced to look. It creates that instant "Wait, what’s happening over there?" effect.
As someone who used to organize actions and protests too, let’s be real for a second: pemilihan Bundaran HI ini bukan lagi buat "protes" langsung ke pihak yang diprotes.
Why? Karena ya udah pasti gak bakal didengar. Pointing fingers directly at the institutions just ends up making you tired, drained, and honestly, males banget. It’s a dead end.
Makanya mereka pilih Bundaran HI. It’s no longer about yelling at a brick wall; it’s about controling the narrative and winning the public's attention. If the authorities won't listen, you make the entire city talk about it instead. And there’s no better stage for that than Bundaran HI.
Jangan nyinyir sama pendemo.
THR, upah minimum, hak lembur, sampai Reformasi 1998 yang membuka jalan demokrasi hari ini. Semuanya lahir dari orang-orang yang berani bersuara dan turun ke jalan.
Jadi sebenere boleh kritik government ga ini?
Soale tiap kritik dicounter, seolah2 yg kritik tu “ga nasionalis” bahkan dijawab “nyenyenyenye”
Ditanya “trus solusimu apa!”
Banyak juga yg udah kasi solusi. Ttp aja dibales dengan narasi offensive.
aku sedihh liat ini… karena aku tau kalo from the very beginning WE NEVER HATED INDONESIA. not even a bit. yang kita benci tuh korupsinya, nepotisme, keserakahan oligarki, dan orang yg dzalim. we love this country so much, and that’s why it hurts to see it getting ruined by them
