The question isn’t why they protest 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘸𝘢𝘺 — 𝗶𝘁’𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝘆 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝗵𝗮𝗱 𝘁𝗼.
So, maybe, instead of condemning the manner the protest was held, focus on actually addressing their concerns so that next time there won't have to be any protest in the first place.
The picture on the left is from 1986, when Filipinos stormed Malacañang Palace. The picture on the right is from today, September 2025, when Filipinos stormed St. Gerrard Construction General Contractor and Development Corporation.
History repeats itself when the conditions that created it never changed.
✨ “We should move beyond the memorization of dates.”
Project Gunita co-founder Atty. Josiah David Quising spoke with Bombo Radyo - Dagupan on the meaning of Ninoy Aquino Day and why remembering goes beyond the calendar.

Ang mag-ama, sa halip na ilang dekada ang pagitan, ay nangunguna pa rin sa pandarambong ng hanap-buhay at mismong paninirahan ang komunidad ng Laguna de Bay.
Mula 1966 hanggang ngayon, panganib pa rin ang dulot ng kaunlaran sa Laguna de Bay dahil sa kasalukuyang isinasagawang Laguna Lake Roadshare Network (LLRN) na pinangunguhanan ng Administrasyong Marcos Jr. at Laguna Lake Development Authority (LLDA) na legasiya ng Diktadurang Marcos Sr.
Mula Unang Marcos hanggang Pangalawang Marcos: Para kanino ang pag-unlad?
Iisa pa rin ang problema ng mga komunidad ng Laguna de Bay — ang kawalan ng hanapbuhay sa harap ng kaunlaran sa ngalan ng tubo, hindi ng tao.
Noon hanggang ngayon: Walang libreng kalayaan. Ito ay pinagbabayaran. Ito ay ipinaglalaban.

RAM Partylist is the political descendant of Reform the Armed Forces Movement, a group created by Marcos Sr military men who staged multiple coup d'états against former President Cory Aquino in attempt to sieze power.
IRONY? 🤔
A few days ago, senatorial candidate Paolo Benigno "Bam" Aguirre Aquino IV, nephew of former President Corazon Aquino, was endorsed by Rebolusyonaryong Alyansang Makabansa (RAM) Partylist. The former Senator endorsed RAM Partylist in return.
Mula noon, hanggang ngayon, ang sama-samang kagitingan ng mamamayang Pilipino ang nagpapalaya sa ating bayan mula sa mga yumuyurak dito.
Matuto sa kasaysayan. 🇵🇭

Pilipinas kong minumutya,
Pugad ng luha ko't dalita.
Aming adhika—
MAKITA KANG SAKDAL LAYA!
Hindi makatarungang ikumpara si Digong kay Ninoy. Ito ay simpleng pagnanakaw sa alala, aral, at simbolo ng paglaban sa diktadurang Marcos. Dapat nating tutulan ang ganitong pambabaluktot ng kasaysayan.
#DefendHistoricalTruth
#NotOurNinoy
Ipinakulong si Ninoy sa Fort Bonifacio dahil kalaban siya ni Marcos Sr. Ipinakulong naman ng mga Pilipino si Duterte sa The Hague upang managot siya sa libo-libong buhay na kinitil niya.
Matapang na lumaban si Ninoy para sa karapatan at kalayaan, samantalang ilang beses niyurakan ni Digong ang karapatan ng mamamayan. Isa ay pinaslang dahil sa paninindigan para sa demokrasya; ang isa, pinaslang ang demokrasya mismo.
Samantala, walang banta sa buhay ni Duterte at gusto lang nilang pauwiin si Digong para baluktutin ang katotohanan at makatakas sa pananagutan.
Pinaslang si Ninoy. Si Duterte ang pumaslang ng higit 27,000 Pilipino.
Kaya bayani si Ninoy Aquino, at hindi kailanman magiging Ninoy Aquino si Rodrigo Duterte.
Umuwi si Ninoy—kahit sa harap ng banta na patayin siya—para ipaglaban ang kalayaan.
Hindi naging bayani si Ninoy dahil pinaslang siya; pinaslang siya dahil isa siyang bayani. Isa siya sa mga lumaban para sa kalayaan, demokrasya, hustisya, at dangal ng bayan. Laban na sumingil sa sarili niyang buhay.
Just over a little year before, on September 20, 1985, the Escalante Massacre claimed the lives of 20 protesters demanding justice under Marcos’ dictatorship.

On January 22, 1987, the Mendiola Massacre saw the brutal killing of 13 farmers marching for genuine land reform under Cory Aquino’s administration.
LOOK: Farmer, senatorial candidate, and Mendiola Massacre survivor Danilo Ramos, holds a piece of history much like his own: an original 1985 issue of Mr&Ms magazine featuring the Escalante Massacre.
