response to lila shahanis post on the bonifacio movie jan 1, 2015 Hello, Lila!I have not seen the movie because its not yet showing here in baguio. Meanwhile I cannot open your share because of weak wifi connection. Tomorrow Ill go to where the connection is stronger. We have a huge FB group here, mainly UP and PUP based within which the issues raised by the movie is being very hotly discussed and debated. Since obviously you have not read my four books on the history of the Revolution, especially the last two titled ANDRES BONIFACIO: MATAKOT SA KASAYSAYAN; OR HOW THE ILUSTRADO YOUTH OF THE 1880S AND 1890S BETRAYED THE REVOLUTION AND THE FILIPINO PEOPLE, and AGUINALDOS COUNTERREVOLUTION AND THE LETTERS OF ANDRES BONIFACIO AND GREGORIA DE JESUS TO EMILIO JACINTO, I am glad to inform you, Vince Rafael, Jenny Llaguno, and Lav Entine about their existence. These history books are, as far as I know the ONLY documented historiographic works in this country. All the others, from Apolinario Mabini to Epifanio delos Santos to TM Kalaw to Agoncillo to Quirino to Zaide, to Constantino, to Ileto, Quibuyen, Abraham Sarmiento, Corpuz,,,,which by the way are in main agreement about the abovementioned questions and are then mainstream and traditional, are hearsay, confabulation, kwento-kwento,tsismis, undemonstrated and unargued. In these books, upon which I have been working for some 30 years now, I have actually completely REWRITTEN the history of the Revolution which in the traditional, mainstream rendering is composed not merely of a string of lies but of blatant inversions and even of inverted projections:--for instance, especially in the works of Agoncillo and the Cavitenos, all the criminal, petty, pigly, thievish, murderous, treasonous motives and deeds of Aguinaldo are regularly attributed to Bonifacio; the fundamental reason why the Revolution did not have arms and funds after four years of archipelagic propagation by Bonifacio and company was because Rizal was immensely successful in pulling away the colonial middle-class from, and setting it against, the Revolution, through his and Del Pilars and Jaenas COUNTERREVOLUTIONARY assimilationist the Philippines as a Province of Spain, anti-independence Propaganda Movement; this of course means that Rizal, just like Del Pilar, Jaena, and the entire ilustrado caboodle were dyed-in-the-marrows anti-revolutionary and anti-independence and were thus propagandizing for an eternity of colonialism; which explains why never in any work by Rizal, not even in any of his extant letters was there a mention of revolution without execrating it; this also was the truculent reason why Andres Bonifacio was indefatigable in trying to convince Rizal not merely to join the Revolution but to lead it--for he knew that Rizal held the key to the recruitment of the entire colonial middle-class to the Revolution together with their money and other resources (he even resorted to using his name and his pictures without his knowledge--an importunate temerity for which in the December 15, 1896 Manifesto Rizal cursed and excoriated Andres Bonifacio and Jacinto as backstabbing savages who ruined his reputation and shamed him to his Spanish friends, etc.). Now all the historians, so-called, before me, have perpetrated the following inversions and inverted projections, and, since they cannot cite any credible document to bear out these lies, invented stories or gave total credence to the crude lies of one singular utterly perjured source, the traitor Pio Valenzuela who was a TAONG BAYONG of the Spaniards (i have written a great deal on the treasonous malignity of this doctor Valenzuela). Hence, according to ALL of them, Rizal was actually very revolutionary but that he did not want to join the Revolution because the latter did not have arms and funds; hence, Rizal did not want to join the Revolution because it did not have arms and funds because he did not want to join it:--the idiots failed to register in their scanty braincells that the main reason the Revolution did not have arms and funds was because Rizal did not join it and did not want to join it and had convinced all the rich Filipinos NOT to join it and to join instead his ANTIREVOLUTIONARY assimilationist province of Spain eternal colonialism anti-independence propaganda movement!; and this because against everything Rizal wrote and did not write and did and did not do, and therefore against the gargantuan fact that Rizal abhorred and abominated and was in mortal terror of the Revolution, these porcorn-brained liars felt compelled to advance the claim that Rizal was not against the Revolution and/or that he was in fact very much for it EXCEPT THAT...etc., etc. The upshot of all this is of course that neither Rizal nor Aguinaldo nor any of the ilustrados except for one or two, were heroes; instead, they with their corresponding cohorts were unspeakable traitors and were in fact the massmurderers of their own countrymen:--think of this:--had not Rizal and Aguinaldo and their respective colonial middle class cohorts been such perverted traitors, we could have liberated ourselves from the Spaniards years before the declaration of the Spanish-American War, so that the Americans would not have had that perfect alibi of subjugating and annexing us because we were then still part of the Spanish empire. Meanwhile, in thus subjugating us, the Americans murdered some 2 million of our ancestors! As much as the Americans, these two exorbitant traitors were the murderers of those 2 million Filpinos. And were thus as much the inflicter of another colonialism...And why are we now the most corrupt country in the world? Because the empowered bearer, cultivator, propagator and enforcer of this world famous culture of corruption across these last 400 plus years were these same colonially collaborating middleclass who finally became, once more, this countrys ruling class; now this ruling class is in this unique in all the world in that of all the former colonial middleclasses in the colonial world, it is the only one that never knew the purifying, exalting, ennobling, dis-corrupting fire of revolution; hence, unlike all the other former colonies the culture of corruption which of course was brought to all the colonies by colonialism, was not subjected to a truncation or deep mitigation by revolution; instead of undergoing a purification or purgation or attenuation, the corruption of our colonial middleclass underwent a galloping exacerbation by their becoming anti-revolutionary traitors instead. And because Rizal and Aguinaldo and their cohorts betrayed the revolution, the same class went on to betray it and the motherland to the Americans, and then to the Japanese:--the Philippine ruling class is thus in this unique in that it is guilty of betraying the country three times and is thus the most corrupt ruling class in the world. Hence, the reason we are the most corrupt country in the world is because we have the most corrupt ruling class in the world and all THAT was because of Jose Rizal--and Aguinaldo.
