May standards na pala tayong sinusunod? May checklist? Kase sure akong pag nagtanong tayo sa masa hindi sila nag iimpose ng kung ano lang ang tamang form ng pakikiisa sa kanila.
I get that we’d want them to use their platform. But I think we’re also forgetting that socmed is not the only platform. And inasmuch as it provides a quick and broad reach, it is also very loose and vulnerable. I think we all know how they have experienced the ugliest version of
that vulnerability. Of course, I celebrated when they did use it, for various reasons. But I won’t impose that they do it for every issue. I won’t demand. Gusto kong ibigay sa kanila yung choice na gawin yun kung kailan handa sila at kaya nila panindigan yung sasabihin nila. Gaya
ng kung paano sila nanindigan nung pinaglaban nila ang abs at mga empleyado nito. It takes serious commitment, one that’s beyond words spoken or written, to actually go to the streets and fight alongside the people. Especially at a time when the govt is so despotic.
I just want to remind everyone na walang isang hulma ang pagiging progresibo. Tatanggapin ng masa kung ano ang kaya at handa mong ibigay. Hindi porket hindi masyadong gumagamit ng socmed eh less na ang inaambag mo. Tandaan din natin na wala sa social media ang totoong labanan.
Siguro nga nakaka raise tayo ng awareness tungkol sa issues dito but again, socmed is very loose. Nothing beats personal and smaller but more in-depth discourse para mas maipaintindi ang issues at para ma-raise ang level of commitment natin to do our part.
I understand yung desperation for people of influence to speak up and use their platform. But, at best, they can only amplify our calls. Alam niyo kung ano ang pinaka effective para maintindihan ng mga tao ang problema at mahimok silang kumilos? SOCIAL REALITIES.
