Dr. Jose Rizal

[QarQing]

I honestly wonder why too many people think he is a hero. He doesn't deserve to be. Firstly, he refused to contribute in war even though he caused it to happen. Secondly he was a bit of a traitor, he was a traitor on both sides spain and austronesian island, thats why he was killed by native austronesians along the firing range, when the traitor was killed, he commited treason. This site explains about it: https://www.academia.edu/71672028/_Was_Rizal_a_traitor_to_the_country_and_the_Katipunan_by_Rea_Ella_Luzano#:~:text=Jose%20Rizal%2C%20our%20very%20own,he%20was%20sentenced%20to%20death. Anyways! That's enough of my rant

He is the Philippines' national hero. Personally, I think he was chosen by the philippine government at that time because he was passive (only wrote books instead of fighting). If the filipino people were to emulate him as their hero, then the citizens would be more compliant, passive and easier to control by the government.

I'd rather have Andres Bonifacio as the philippines' national hero instead of Jose Rizal.

Exactly! Jose Rizal is too overrated! I don't understand why! Finally someone agrees

Don't know anything about him so I looked him up

Apparently he was pushed as being the more passive national hero.
I guess this would be like having some Quaker instead of George Washington as the real founding father of the US...
