It is election season here in the Philippines, and violence reigns over. As of today, there are 57 bodies found in Maguindanao, Mindanao, Philippines. The decapitated, slaughtered bodies of women and journalists joining the gubernatorial slate of Vice Mayor Mangudadatu. It's not just about political dynasties waging war on each other, it affects everyone, every Filipino. This is an attack on our freedom, we are now bound with fear. Fuck you, GMA, you have forgotten about Mindanao and this land is now terrorized by warlords and their private armies.
"It is perversion so systematic it carries with it its own violent logic: the vote is meaningless, the public’s will is the warlord’s will, life is puny."
