After insulting Indonesian protesters who yearn for a better life in the midst of mismanagement by the government, you have the absolute audacity to say that you respect Indonesians making sovereign choices
I guess orientalism never truly dies
INDONESIA
To Indonesian followers who remain trapped in ideology and partisan games:
My task is to analyze foreign meddling and influence while understanding the geopolitical landscape—specifically, Indonesia's position within the contest between a unipolar world under U.S. hegemony and a multipolar order led by China.
Many make the mistake of placing ideology (left vs. right, corruption, personal preferences, internal issues, etc.) above sovereignty. That is a grave error.
SOVEREIGNTY
Sovereignty is the foundation of democracy.
Without sovereignty, there is no self-determination—only a slave-like colonial mindset, where Indonesians remain divided by a foreign master who influences internal politics through USAID, NED, and countless NGOs acting as influence agents.
If decisions are made outside the country—say, in Brussels or Washington—then ideology is meaningless.
I could not care less who leads Indonesia. Ultimately, Indonesians—and only Indonesians—must make that sovereign choice, free from external influence.
I respect Indonesia too much to dictate who should be better for their country.
Self determination is a basic human right at country level same as for an individual > have the freedom to decide one’s own destiny.
