Kenapa tiba-tiba everyone is licking Gibran's arse... Selama ini most people yang menggaungkan wowo mundur itu anti-progresivitas yang nyaru doang....?
Atau ini termul yang baru keluar dari sarang krn mereka dapet amunisi buat mengkultuskan owi n keturunannya lagi :/
HARI INI, YANG TURUN KE JALAN ADALAH WARGA SIPIL DAN MAMA-MAMA PAPUA YANG MENYUARAKAN ASPIRASI DENGAN SENYUMNYA DAN SECARA DAMAI.
Mereka tidak membawa senjata. Hanya noken, kepalan tangan, dan keberanian untuk menyuarakan hak-hak yang selama ini seolah tak pernah didengar oleh pemerintah pusat.
Jangan biarkan suara saudara-saudara kita di Timur kembali dibungkam. Kawal terus dari Barat hingga Timur. Jangan sampai algoritma mengubur perjuangan dan jeritan mereka!
Papua bukan tanah yang boleh diabaikan. Suara rakyatnya layak didengar.

Hati aku nyesek banget lihat ada brand luar yang nge-white label kelom 80rban, dijual sampai 3 juta. Mereka infoin bahwa para pengrajinnya dapat 10% dari net sales. Di salah satu postingannya, bahkan ada foto yang bikin kesannya seolah-olah mereka juga yang ngedesain..

the amount of hate my Thailand vs Bali comparison got was honestly insane
people telling me to leave, go back to my country, that digital nomads are ruining everything, that we should all get out...
some people also got extremely offended by me saying "Bali is not Indonesia".
obviously, Bali is part of Indonesia. what I meant is that Bali (and i mentioned) is very different from the rest of the country and shouldn't be treated as representative of all Indonesia.
it's like visiting Ibiza and assuming the whole of Spain is just like Ibiza. they're both part of the same country, but the experience is completely different.
i've seen the exact same debate in Spain, where locals blame foreigners from wealthier countries for driving up rent and making life more expensive.
and let's be honest, there are valid concerns. housing prices, gentrification and the impact on local communities are real issues.
but there's another side people conveniently ignore.
foreigners also bring money into the local economy. they rent villas and apartments, eat at local restaurants, go to gyms, hire services, book activities and help create demand for businesses that might not exist otherwise.
many local people make a living from tourism and foreign residents.
and these countries actively offer visas that allow people to come and live there. it's not like we're secretly sneaking in.
i'm not saying everything is perfect, or that digital nomads have no negative impact. i'm saying it's more complicated than just blaming foreigners for everything.
i've lived in Spain, Thailand, Indonesia, UK, Australia, Greece and Palau. i love the opportunity to move around, meet people from different cultures and experience different ways of living.
that's what globalization should be about.
and honestly, i'm glad i never experienced this kind of hostility in person while living in Bali or Thailand. if i had, i probably wouldn't have wanted to come back.
funny how most of this hate seems to come from people hiding behind anonymous accounts on X.
you can disagree with someone without telling them they don't belong somewhere.
