On the French flag filter

#Parisattacks

To those who had quickly changed their profile pictures into French colors, I hope you do not stop at that. I hope you explore the backstory of the attacks, how the US and its allies created their own monsters (ISIS and other terrorist groups), and the extent by which these monsters are wreaking havoc in other parts of the globe not just in Paris. I hope you inquire about the possible backlash on migrants and refugees in Europe, and how US and French governments might use the Paris attacks to justify increased military intervention in several countries.

Also, I hope you will also look at the killings of our lumad brothers and sisters with the same grief and compassion. Because you cannot just seek justice for Paris but remain tight-lipped on the injustice in front of you.
