Veteran journalist Ed Lingao hits back to the recent Facebook meme post of Presidential Communications Operations Office Asec. Mocha Uson about the 1986 EDSA People Power Revolution.
According to the FB post of the blogger-turned-public official, she pilloried the said historical event.
“Napaiyak din ba kayo sa mga drama ng mga aktibistang madre sa EDSA? #NeverForget,” Mocha wrote.
The Univeristy of the Philippines alumnus took to his social media account to answer the insensitive and irrelevant accusations of Mocha.
“I will try to understand your inability to comprehend what it was like to use your body to block Marines and their 37-ton Amtraks from advancing to Camp Aguinaldo to quell a military mutiny. I suppose wala ka naman duon,” he wrote.
“What I cannot understand is where you get the nerve to imply that this was all theatrics,” he added.
On a part of his post, Ed turned the ‘theatrical’ allegation to Mocha for posting unconvincing photos of her on her FB page.
“If you want samples of theatrics, there are more appropriate samples out there, like the one on a lady assistant secretary’s blog where she shows herself plinking targets with a rifle, with the caption that says “training kahapon bago pumunta sa Mindanao.” Or one where she is reading law books,” he wrote.
