GURLLLLL corruption itself is violence, why are we still arguing whether violence on a protest is necessary when literally we are fighting the rich, the powerful, and the armed forces who never listens on peaceful protests?
kaya ang masasabi ko lang ay deserve nilang mabato
i don't think the first instinct from progressives should be to other the rioters – taumbayan rin yan, hindi yan ibang tao. galit ang lahat, pero hindi lahat ay organisado. doesn't mean we can just say "ah hindi kami yun" and call it a day.
their anger is also ours.
i hope the media stops romanticizing protests as if they’re just colorful gatherings. show the truth—may dugo sa kalsada. people are risking their lives, not just raising their voices. if you’ll cover rallies, cover them fully. don’t sanitize the struggle, expose the violence too
