Bilang panlaban sa manipesto ng mga tamad mag-isip (paumanhin, pero hindi ko bibigyan iyon ng importansya, mabuting hanapin ninyo ito sa tulong ng Google), basahin ang opinyon ni Atty. Raul Pangalangan. Pakibasa nang mabuti, para inyong mapagtanto ang ating katamaran:

We treat revolutions and coup attempts as if we had absolutely nothing to do with them. We externalize political events as something wholly distinct from our private lives and choices. Sad to say, that is so incorrect. If we are truly a democracy, rebellions should win only with our support or be doomed to lose without it. But now we prefer to be mere spectators, a democracy of onlookers who sit on the sidelines waiting for the smoke to clear … and to cheer on the victor. Faced with a historical moment, we hedged our bets, and chose to wager not on the basis of who’s right and who’s wrong, but rather on the basis of whose side has more guns and tanks.
