There is no #PeoplePower if people are only in #SocialMedia.

1. Learn from the 1986 People Power in the #Philippines which forced the dictator and martial law President Ferdinand Marcos, Sr., to flee to Hawaii.

2. Learn from the People Power in South Korea when they ended #MartialLaw, not once but twice!

Get out there on the streets. Fight for your rights and freedom from dictatorship and tyranny. That's only when People Power truly becomes a force that can change your beloved country.

Today is the 39th anniversary of the EDSA #PeoplePower Revolution which forced the #MartialLaw dictator and then President, Ferdinand Marcos, Sr., out of the #Philippines. They fled to the #USA.

1986 February 25th

South Korea's suspended President Yoon Suk Yeol will not attend the first hearing of his impeachment trial this week because of safety concerns, his lawyer said. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/01/12/asia-pacific/politics/yoon-impeachment-hearing/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #asiapacific #politics #southkorea #yoonsukyeol #impeachment #martiallaw

An unpopular president’s martial law was no match for a people with an inner strength born of repelling despots and invaders. #SouthKorea #MartialLaw #politics

Timothy Snyder thinks there are lessons Americans might learn from what just happened in South Korea, if we're so inclined.

Like Trump, Yoon Suk Yeol won a very narrow victory in his election. He blathers about "fake news" and his "enemies," and sought to impose martial law – "as will Trump if he decides to invoke the Insurrection Act…."

So, #MartialLaw is a #KPop group?

Woke up today and still do not understand what President Yoon tried to do yesterday. I think that he must resign after yesterday's show, he damaged the image of the country. #Korea #Yoon #martiallaw #MartialLawSouthKorea

South Korea is in crisis. Their president declared martial law, their parliament called that off, what happens next remains to be seen.

Violence is never a good answer. And while it is _an_ answer, I hope for peaceful solutions to prevail, both there and in every country, including ours.
