CULT, TRUE OR A CONSPIRACY?

 


Again, when mentioning something happened in Mindanao. Don’t go with Mindanao first, specified the place. Even in writing addresses, you start with the place you are standing in specifically. But when news came from Mindanao, War in Mindanao, Bombing in Mindanao, Cult in Mindanao. It’s not happening in all of Mindanao, but just a specific place on it. Be careful about that, especially if its a negative issue. It will affect all of us here, eventhough it’s only happening only in an specific place. Just like the thing we are to talk about. When something happened in Batangas, we don’t implicate all of Luzon. When something happened in Cebu, we don’t implicate all of Visayaz. Be fair in newscasting, and spreading rumours. Because I believe, this is just like it.

The jist is, some members of the cult, will knock on your door in the night. And if you somehow open, you will be kidnapped and killed to be an offering. Personally I don’t buy the story. Because no, news outlets are getting it out. Why? Maybe they thought it’s bullshit. Not even a police report. And it’s trending on Tiktok. There is a possibility, that its audio, is a separate thing from the video. And we can’t really verify, if it’s really a cult kidnapping, or a burglar being cornered by the people, who wants to arrest him, or her.

So why is this happenning? If you will type, highest COVID cases in Mindanao. What will pop-out first, is North Mindanao. The place where this is occuring allegedly is somewhere in the Misamis. It is in the North of Mindanao. Are you seeing the connection now?

I don’t want to pinpoint who is behind the spreading of this. But the result is, people are locking themselves up in there homes, with locked doors at night. It might have helped the government, especially the local, in implenting curfew, lockdown with much ease now, at that place.

Is it a good thing? Both yes and no. Yes if it helps to curb down, COVID cases. No because it will put the place in notoriety, and with the way the rumours are being spread, the whole of Mindanao itself. Until their are police reports, and news outlets reporting it, and not vlogs in Youtube and Tiktok. I will not recommend for people to believe in it.

CANCEL CULTURE, EVIL CANCER

 


Remember when our country called for CANCEL KOREA, when Koreans reltaliated racist remarks against an innocent and also ignorant post by Bella Poarch, about her tattoo that has Japanese Imperial Flag. I mean what they’ve done, was not right. But is it that easy to call for cancellation today? Yet if it is, why Probinsyano is still on air?

This will be short. The sum of what I will I rant is these: Not all bad deeds, are forgivable, neither is condemnable. I mean if a person’s deeds crosses the line of being heinous, like of rape, murder, it is right to cancel them. But if it is of little things that are maybe bad, but can be forgiven, is it too petty to cancel a person for that? And can a person not change? Remember that the only constant thing in this world is change. Someone may be an asshole today, but a goodman tomorrow, or in reverse. Cancelling one person pushes him to be an asshole forever, because there is no room for forgiveness.

Another thing is, cancelling a person for what he did in the past. I can understand if it’s maybe a year, months, but decades, that the person doesn’t even remember, and you will apply the rules of now, that’s not acceptable for me. Again depending on the degree of the deed, we should not cancel so easily.

Cancelling has its present repercussions, that can cause damages not only to the person directly involved. But to others, that had nothing to with it. Look at Jisoo’s case, the male actor, not the BLACKPINK member. He was accussed of bullying, and admitted it. Everyone calls for cancellation, and the drama was derailed, had to reshoot and recast for the slot, that Jisoo vacated. I mean, I am not supporting bullying, in anyway. The allegations that he admitted of doing was not light. But why now? Why not then? And why the school, has allowed this to happen to the schoolmates? If you think you have done justice, you’re wrong. The accusers and the cancel people, you have affected other people that has nothing to do, with what he did to you. It is not justice, but revenge, and counter bullying.

Another case, is Donald Trump. The former President, of the United States. Everyone is cancelling him, except the Republican Party. They are not giving him plaform to speak. Twitter, Facebook, every  social media platforms. Their are this article that a video was taken down, by a social networking site, where Donald Trump is speaking about something.

I mean,  I’m scared of this. I am not an American, but If I am , I am a Democrat. I would have voted for Joe Biden, and not Trump. But they are too much, at Trump now. He is defeated already! You are not thinking beyond this. Let me remind you, he could still run, he is not disqualified from public office, because the impeachment failed to get the majority to convict him. And if he somewhat wins. There will be a hell of a payback. Oh its true, its damn true. Kurt Angle reference. He will cancel those who cancel him.

I mean even Sun Tzu, disagree with what they are doing to him. In Art of War Chapter 7 Maneuvering  No.36

36. When you surround an army, leave an outlet free. Do not press a desperate foe too hard.

Why?  Because this is what will happen. In Chapter 11 The Nine Situations No. 23-24

23. Throw your soldiers into positions whence there is no escape, and they will prefer death to flight.  If they will face death, there is nothing they may not achieve. Officers and men alike will put forth their uttermost strength.

24. Soldiers when in desperate straits lose the sense of fear. If there is no place of refuge, they will stand firm. If they are in hostile country, they will show a stubborn front. If there is no help for it, they will fight hard.

They are pressing him too hard, without a way out. Now whats he gonna do? He will run again, and take vengeance. That is why I am fearing for America.

As love begots love, cancellation may also begot cancellation. Not all bad deeds, are condemnable, some of them are forgivable, Let us not be too easy in shouting and advocating cancellation. And if you think, its only for famous people, all of us are affected of this. Let us think first if it can be forgiven, if it is, forgive. Because not forgiving is pushing persons to a corner, and they might take the only path that is available. Its either suicide, or to double down. Both are not good. So let’s cancel, cancel culture, because it is an evil cancer.
