#MarcosNotAHero's Martial Law, a thread about #MLMythsBusted #StopHistoricalRevisionism
1. PH's economy was good at the start but didn't last.

@lourddv @Xiao_Chua @jcpunongbayan @ToniSpeakEasy @indayevarona @erintanada @indiohistorian @supernegatrona

FALSE CLAIM: The peso-dollar exchange rate during the administration of #MarcosNOTAHero was at P1.50 to P2 per dollar. (1965 forex rate - P3.91 per dollar; 1986 forex rate - one dollar was equivalent to P20.46) @rapplerdotcom #MarcosSinungaling

FALSE CLAIM: PH was the “richest country in Asia” during #MarcosIsADictator's regime or was as rich as Singapore. (1965 PH GDP - 3rd highest in Asia; 1986 - 5th place trailing behind Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, & Indonesia) #MarcosSinungaling

THIS IS AN UNDENIABLE FACT: Filipinos still bear P6.2-T #MarcosMagnanakaw debt burden #BataanNuclearPowerPlantIsABurden @akatsukichan2x @hotmanila @momblogger @erintanada @TheGodfatherXXI @Jimparedes @BKwago @MaamSyj @MiaMagdalena @cesdrilon @rryyyaaaannnn

2. #MarcosNotAHero's regime is NOT THE GOLDEN AGE OF INFRASTRUCTURE. It's THE GOLDEN AGE OF DEBT. #MarcosKawatan @oj_arbolario @VButchoy @banana_feelings @TrillanesSonny @IdentikitThom @raissawriter @raffymagno @YellowPadawan @mikenavallo @jcpunongbayan

In #TheKingmaker by @lgreen66 on @iwanttfc, it showed that @USAID wasn't properly used at that time but was plundered by #MarcosMagnanakaw to finance their lavish lifestyle. #ImeldaCriminal #ImeldaGanib #MarcosNotAHero

3. #ImeldaCriminal's #EdificeComplex is her way to perpetuate her love for beautiful things including the arts. Hence, @ccp_gov complex was built. #MarcosNotAHero

#ImeldaCriminal's #EdificeComplex is the reason for #HauntedManilaFilmCenter. The project was rushed to satisfy her capricious demand, burying people who died when it collapsed. #ManilaBayWhiteSand was Meldy's original idea after all. @Xiao_Chua

4. #MarcosNotAHero's Martial Law declaration basis was lawlessness/communist insurgency is A FICTITIOUS CLAIM, a product of his greed. #MarcosSinungaling #MartialLawIsNotAboutDiscipline

5. #MarcosNotAHero's regime cultivates the #CultureOfImpunity #ExtraJudicialKillings #EnforcedDisappearance & #PhysicalPsychologicalTortures. #MarcosIsADictator didn't like dissenters/critics. He kills democracy & ushers in tyranny. #StopTheKillings

When #MarcosNotAHero died in Hawaii, #ImeldaCriminal played the victim card saying that the late #CoryAquino's gov't was cruel/inhumane for not allowing the PH return of his remains. @HawaiiNewsNow
#ManilaBayChallenge: Ibaon sa dolomite si #MarcosKawatan

6. We lost #TheLeaderWeNeed generation because #MarcosNotAHero's regime killed most of them that's why we have #PoliticalDynasties. #MarcosIsCorrupt #StopMarcosApologists

Gone too soon: 7 #YouthLeaders killed under #MarcosNotAHero's Martial Law. #NeverAgain #NeverForget #MagparehistroKa #YouthVote #MasMaramiTayo #40MStrong @WeTheYouthVote

7. #MarcosMagnanakaw #AngkanNgKawatan has continued to deny looting the gov't coffers despite incriminating evidences against them. #MarcosSinungaling talaga!

@bongbongmarcos has remained unapologetic of #MarcosKawatan's excesses under #MarcosNotAHero's Martial Law. #NeverForget #NeverAgain @ABSCBNNews @juLiusbabao @iamkarendavila @cesdrilon

@SenImeeMarcos said that during Ramos' admin, #MarcosAngkanNgKawatan agreed not to bury #MarcosNotAHero in LNMB that time because it was contentious. She added that #InutilNaPagong wanted it since it was a political question. #DuterteMarcosApologist

#MarcosNotAHero's burial in LNMB is THE WORST INSULT TO REAL HEROES/STATESMEN/FILIPINOS. #YouthVote, #NeverForget Duterte made it happen. #MasMaramiTayo
@WeTheYouthVote @KarlBauuu @RiaAtayde @macoydubs1 @JULESguiang @tonetjadaone

Ending this w/ excerpts of the song derived from #AndresBonifacio's poem & the movie #HeneralLuna's infamous heated exchange. We call on #YouthVote again, #MagparehistroKa #MasMaramiTayo #40MStrong @WeTheYouthVote @TBAStudiosPH
