Comment on Idolizing Jose Rizal by Jommel Jaucian

pinatay siya dahil galit sa kanya ang mga prayle… if I recall it right, parang half-hearted ang colonial government na i-prosecute siya. pinayagan pa nga sana siyang pumunta sa Cuba kung hindi lamang siya inaresto ulit at in-execute (kasi nangibabaw ang kapangyarihan ng simbahan, at bago ang governor-general nung panahon na iyon).

gusto nya ang mamumuno ng revolution ay yung mga nasa middle class (tulad nya, yung mga landed elite na nakapag-aral sa iba’t-ibang lugar). basahin mo ulit ang 2 novels niya at naroon ang message. sa el fili pa nga, yung revolution na ginawa ni Simoun (protagonist/antagonist ng nobela) ay nasawi nang sinimulan niya ang rebellion.

I’m an Imperial as well. Unfortunately, I don’t know anything about my grandfather’s family somewhere in Bicol (he’s an Imperial). He went to Palawan and married a local. He never went to Bicol again despite my father asking him to. Now, maybe I’ll never be able to know about our family in Bicol because he already past away. His name is Domingo Imperial.

Wait, if the general was made by the Spanish officers as one of their own, does it not make him a collaborator? As you said, he was responsible for churning out big tax collections–collections that probably left many poor Filipinos hungry and impoverished at that time. As Mr. Carizo has raised, I am curious if there is a Chinese word for “makapili.” Of course, he did this to survive–which makes me doubt the wisdom of building a monument in his honor.

@Enrique Morris never remarried and he was not even a billionaire. He married a Rufino. Just getting the facts straight. Good luck with the rest of the history.
