Three most common “Victimhood mentality of Filipinos”
Life continues to be difficult for many Filipinos. Government dissatisfaction continues regardless of who sits in Malacañang. Meantime, ‘leftist communist groups’ recruit young minds. Another former ‘scholar ng bayan’ cum UP activist turned NPA was killed in a military encounter in Polillo in 2022.
Thousands of young people like him have died senselessly. Naturally, young people attracted to their cause blame the government. In truth, the NPA is a communist and atheist socialist organization.
Instead of blaming the past, the red and yellow, the rich or the poor, take personal responsibility and eliminate useless Filipino ideologies that enslave us.
EXAMPLES OF SUBMISSION TO AUTHORITY IN THE BIBLE.
Three most common “victimhood mentality of Filipinos”
1. “Pala-sisi, puro sat-sat, pero kulang sa gawa“
It’s easy to blame others but not be part of the solution. Instead of faultfinding, consider how our capitalist Asian neighbors rose from ashes. They focused on skills, education, and hard work to help their country.
HARD WORK: Korea, Vietnam, and Singapore had far worse condition during the 1960s. They had dictators too. Even China has corruption, but they managed to pull their economy through hard work. It’s easy to blame Marcos in the 70s, the Aquinos after, Estrada, Arroyo, or Duterte at present. The blaming never stops.
WHAT HAPPENED TO THE PHILIPPINES?
2. “Talangka mentality”
“Talangka” mentality remains in our culture. Filipinos can be so vindictive that government officials are mocked relentlessly on the internet, even if they’ve accomplished something good.
3. “Nagmamagaling”
More students are turning to a far-left ideology rooted in atheism. They think they know better. We must learn from past mistakes, but we must fix our eyes on the future.
Our leaders may fail us, but God placed them for a reason. (Daniel 2:21)
Satan wouldn’t want a victorious government. If our leaders fail, our society falters. If you believe God is in control, pray for your leaders.
If you believe God is in control, pray for your leaders
SHOULD WE SUBMIT TO A BAD LEADER?
Are you a millennial? One of Satan’s strategy is “victimhood,” he wants you to “hate” and believe that the victim is you. He uses “collectivism” and deceptive “Marxist ideology” to influence the mind. If you are a student, your first job is to obey your parents and study well. Doing so is being a responsible family member, and ultimately a good Filipino citizen. “Makinig sa magulang.”
