ninoy?

last monday was the death anniversary of ninoy aquino.
and he was all over the news.
and i kept telling myself.
"why the hell do we celebrate this idiot's death anniversary?!"
"what has he accomplished that makes him so special?!
"DEMOCRACY!?" - really? is that really such a big deal when NOW you look around and you see people starving.
and then i thought of Marcos.
and i just told myself.
"Marcos being kicked out of power was such a mistake, such a loss to the Philippines."
and people keep saying he's bad.

of the presidents starting from Marcos to arroyo, i think and i believe that Marcos was the one (the only one) who really cared for his country.

and so i had to ask people who has experienced the Marcos regime.
i asked my mom and dad.
"was marcos bad?"
they both said
"NO!" (and yes with exclamation point)
and of course i believe them.

i was never a fan of ninoy aquino.
but i am definitely a fan of Marcos.

i've always thought that the aquino administration was the start of the downfall of the Philippines.
i always thought of cory aquino as one of the most useless Philippine presidents ever.
i've always thought that fidel ramos was the most evil of them all.
and now i believe that gloria macapagal arroyo is the most shameless of all Philippine presidents.

the 1986 people power revolution.
for freedom.
for democracy.
i say it was all craziness and stupidity.
sorry but i just don't get it.
my parents did not have problems with the Marcos regime. and they were very simple people, so i don't get why all this people were making such a fuss about human rights violations.
frankly i don't give a shit for this people who say their rights were violated, they surely must have done things wrongly and so they had to be punished.

democracy my ass if in exchange we get such incompetent leaders like cory aquino.
and look were this country is now.

we are nowhere.

has the lives of common Filipinos improved after we finally had what we call democracy?
