Horeee... kita MENANG...gung malu!

Yes, I admit that I didn't want Indonesia to win. I even didn't want to watch the game. I wished Malaysia would spanked Indonesian squad. BUT... I hate the way Malaysia won. I hate the way of supporters in Malaysia treated our national team like that. No, not because it was sly, but it just made them to have an excuse to whine! Them: - The "Name that shall not be mention" that licking our president boot. - The corrupted officials of our national football association. - The players. Look here, they were delusional trying to think they were the best team. Out of five winning that they achieved so far, they took it in here, GBK. Christian Gonzales is 34, how many years do you think he would be able to continue supporting our team? Do you think just Irfan Bachdim can replace him? I bet two years in the Indonesian league and he will be rotten just like others. Like the selfish Bambang Pamungkas and the imbecile Ridwan. This euphoria is not answering the problem of our nati...

#PrayForIndonesia

I pray that we would have a better election system, so that people like this can never be elected. I pray for the day that I would choose the person that I feel capable. Not some pig that smug some pig money to some pigs that making them in the election list. I pray for a day when my country politicians have balls to keep their words. I pray for the day that will come that a person can be in a position because of his/her capability not because of his/her gender, religion, or any attribute the person have. I pray I have a president that have balls to protect such person. I pray I have a series of governments that reign with a common vision. That would not change curriculum like takin' shit. Sorry, God, for the measle of my vocabulary that infecting this prayer. I pray for forgiveness. I pray for Indonesia, if there is such a thing called Indonesia. I wish I could be called Indonesian, have a right in this country just like others. Not afraid to call Your name in anywhere I go. Doin...

Is there a god?

Do we need a god or a vending machine? The one that would gives us with whatever we want as we chip in our coin into The one that won't have a personality, a perfect doll that we can ditch whenever we feel like doing so. The one that we don't need to be in 24x7. The one that can be betrayed easily. The one that can be claimed whose voices are from. The one that can ensure our supremacy. The one that we can say that our voices belong to. The one that wouldn't mind if we kill one or two. Our raison d'etre is mere a decoration. We never did have it as our pledge. We didn't even walk away with rational mind. We doubt the existance. If god so real why people killing each other? Is god a deceiver? That pretends to be honest and merciful. Yet legitimate the slaughter of people other than believer. That can be easily disturbed by the presence of others and be so afraid to lose his/her/its people. Is he/she/it that afraid to lose? Then, don't you think that god is n...

Am I A Stranger?

Prihatin baca berita minggu ini. Ada peristiwa penurunan patung Buddha di Sumatera Utara. Lalu, ada kesenian wayang yang terancam punah karena dilarang pentas di Jawa. Lalu saya bertanya, apakah esok hari saya akan diseret dari rumah saya? Dengan enaknya seorang dari mayoritas berkata bahwa orang bisa bebas beribadah kalau melanggar hukum. Duh, bagaimana dia bisa mengerti sakitnya hati orang minoritas yang tidak bisa bersuara terhadap keputusan hukum? Ketika UU Pornografi disahkan, kami kaum minoritas banyak menolak. Ya, kami, kaum agama lain, seniman, bahkan sampai Gubernur Bali yang notabene mewakili Bali. Apakah dia tahu bagaimana rasanya sulit mengurus IMB untuk rumah ibadah? Bahkan tempat ibadah yang memakai surat menteri pun bisa diprotes. Dia tidak tahu rasanya bagaimana setiap hari orang harus was-was untuk tidak terpancing emosi. Dia tidak tahu rasanya kalau esok tiba-tiba tidak punya tempat untuk beribadah. Tahukah dia rasanya menjadi minoritas? Tahukah dia bagaimana sakitnya...

The Right Thing

Feels bad of talking other religion. Somehow, Islam is quite a topic, because of the two things: "The HKBP stabbing" and Kun's post . In the "Deciphering The Past", I have encountered two things: Islam as other religions do faces a real problem called modernity. There are two mitigations because of the threat: revolution and fundamentalism. Islam like Christianity, also faces the dilemma of both world. Revolution means to rip apart old values, while fundamentalism is vice versa. Both have their own stand point. Furthermore, both have ashholes called extemists. I found both religious and atheists have those that excercising their belief with ill-mannered way. Both said about their argument being a winner. Until God (Him/Her/It)self(es) showed, no one will ever know the truth. So, meanwhile why don't we just start believing what we believe and respect what other's believe. And stop generalizing people! Every large group may have leechers, faithless, and o...

Sin, Pleasure, Educate, Socialize

Wow, I must say that I can't resist myself to activate this blog again. Several topics that was on my blog here is unlikely forbidden in my UI blog, especially the liberal part and politics. Since that blog are hanging on many planets, not like this one, I kinda restrain my self. But, several friends even a comment from Kun, suggested that I write my thoughts here. Yes, I want my libre mind here. DISCLAIMER: STOP READING FROM ONWARDS IF YOU DON'T HAVE A LIBERAL MIND NOR GETTING SICK EASILY. I am distracted by the way of today's manga, especially in Shonnen. What I mean manga here is a graphic novel (comic for you) written with Japanese style (Manga) or Korean (Manhwa). Those are similar so I called them manga. Shonnen is a genre in manga that segmented its story towards young men (teenager). See wikipedia and google for it yourself for more detail. Anyway, There is a concern about today's manga that I feel like to share with you. There are two things that what in today...
