Pagod Ngunit Patuloy na Lalaban

Bakit ba tayo umaasa na gagawin ng self-serving politicians at government officials kung ano ang nakakabuti sa masang Pilipino? Lahat sila trapo. Lahat sila tuta. Lahat sila pansariling interes ang priority at hindi ang mga Pilipino na siyang tunay na dapat pagsilbihan nila.

Patuloy tayong ginagago, at patuloy din tayo umu-oo't nagpapagago. Wala tayong ginagawa kasi "ganyan talaga eh, ano pa bang maaasahan mo?" No. Break free from that way of thinking. Let's not stay complacent. Let's practice the culture of demanding accountability and competence from the politicians we put in those positions to serve us.

Why should we tiptoe around them? Why should we be afraid to offend them? They should be ashamed for disappointing us, for letting this evil proliferate, for turning a blind eye on extra-judicial abuses and killings, for being anti-poor, for letting one man dissolve the separation of powers, for allowing a dictator to terrorize the masses, for letting our sovereignty be threatened by foreign bullies. Walang hustisya sa bansang 'to. Walang accountability. Let's not keep it that way.

Let's stop tolerating incompetence, injustice, and bullshit from the government. Let's use our voices to speak up for ourselves and our country -- and especially for the unheard. Let's speak up so that all politicians and government officials know we're fed up. We're angry. We're watching. And there will be a reckoning.
