Indonesia is being silenced by fascist regime

Indonesia is in the middle of a crisis right now. The fascist regime is silencing the people as they continue to commit brutal violence against innocent civilians. They’ve banned posts on Instagram and TikTok, preventing my people from sharing the news to the world. 

Main events:

Monday, 25/8/25: Protest for outrageous amount of hike in lawmaker’s pay in the middle of an economic crisis.

Thursday, 28/8/25: A motorcycle taxi driver named Affan Kurniawan (21) was run over by a police armored vehicle during protest. (TW: distressing content)

Friday, 29/8/25: Widespread rage across Indonesia. Civilians destroy and burn down police stations in Jakarta, Bandung, Makassar, and many other cities, demanding justice for Kurniawan. 

Saturday, 30/8/25: - People ransacked MP Ahmad Sahroni’s house amid unrest. - In Central Jakarta, around 8-9 PM, the government disabled TikTok live feature, cut off electricity in those areas, and start mass shooting on protestors on the streets. (TW: distressing content) 

Things to note:

Current president Prabowo Subianto is a former military general who was responsible for the "enforced disappearance" of activists in 1997-98 under dictator Soeharto's New Order regime.

There are calculated efforts of certain parties to hijack the moment with provocation, trying to turn civilians against each other, telling them to target minorities, encourage looting and destroy public transport facilities - which will provide a pretext for the government to legitimize brutal violence against the civilians. 

During all this chaos, many MPs are hiding abroad. MP Sahroni is in Singapore. Some other MPs are on a “business trip” in Australia. 

News coverage in English:

Al-Jazeera reported that the president has issued “an apology.” — this is not entirely true. He did issue a statement, but he did not say a word of apology in it. Other than that, no misleading information on Al-Jazeera’s coverage so far. You can keep up with them on instagram @aljazeeraenglish or their website.

Andor not getting any acting nominations for the Emmys is a hate crime.

Dedra's downfall is really fascinating to me, because it perfectly encapsulates how an oppressive regime will implement oppressive systems within itself. Dedra is an ambitious woman within a fascist and sexist system. Despite her work ethic, she is still up against that systemic sexism that her male coworkers don't face.

Her line about having to scavenge is a direct callout of how much more work she has to do to prove herself, but it still isn't enough. She still falls. Fascism still consumes her because that's what it does: it eats up anyone who doesn't perfectly conform to its systems and spits out whatever is left.

This is what the show is telling us through Dedra: that it is a failure to believe that success can be achieved through allying yourself to the current regime. No matter what you do, it will come for you. Dedra's ambition fails her and lands her in a Narkina-like prison, where she becomes one of the same detention numbers that she was praised for keeping so high in season 1.

There is no graceful fall for someone like Dedra. It is a sharp decline to ruin and obscurity.

one of the hundred things I love about Andor is that in the end, all the villains were destroyed not in an epic showdown with the rebels or whoever but by the machine that they worked for. syril was a faceless casualty of the genocide he helped create. dedra was done in for putting ambition over conformity to the machine, and she took down partagaz, who essentially created her, along with her. even heert was quite literally killed by his own droid and his own men. all of them were crushed by the wheel they dedicated their lives to keep turning. it's just so deeply deeply satisfying.

Andor 2.10 - Make It Stop

[thedirtiwalkoniswet]

Andor ended with such a bang, and one particular thing I like to point out is that every imperial who actually spent time thinking about what they are doing for the empire, the ones with an independent thought process, they are punished for it, it doesn't matter how much they have done for the empire, their minds aren't wanted. They ones that do survive are the ones who follow protocol to a tea, the ones who don't take risks.

They don't want intelligent people, because they are capable of seeing if they are doing something wrong, stupid people aren't always able to. Yes, these intelligent people are cruel nontheless, Partagaz and Dedra didn't back down, they didn't betray the empire, but just the thought in the back of their head is enough of a risk for the empire
