Did the 1986 EDSA Revolution really happen? Given the state of current affairs in the Philippines, those of us who marched during those historic times, are flabbergasted and disgusted all these years later.
Conjugal Dictators - Imelda & Ferdinand Marcos |
What did we take to the streets for? Risking life and limb? Fighting so hard - for what? To elect another Marcos pawn as our current president? Where is that fabulous people power when we need it?
An inept government led by a bumbling bully is made even more glaringly wrong in these difficult times that challenge even the best of the best.
These terrible examples of patriarchy do what they want, when they want, how they want, and all others and expect us to support and promote their entitlements. It's a sick world they live in, made more dangerous by their blind ignorance.
In the meantime, a nation is brought to its knees and pounded into the pavement while being insulted and ridiculed by the folks elected into office who definitely do not deserve nor do their jobs.
Cruel and corrupt officials that we all curse with every breath drawn. This is the legacy the conjugal dictatorship of Imelda and Ferdinand Marcos has mired the Philippines and its people in.
Remember that always and especially this 35th Anniversary of our people power. The fight is still ongoing.
