The Communist Party of the Philippines said all of the victims of President Rodrigo Duterte’s “political persecution, armed oppression and bloody campaign of mass murder” are bound to unite in their common quest for justice “and to resist and frustrate his plans to prop himself up as a fascist dictator.”

In a Monday (September 18) posting on its website, Philippine Revolution Web Central (PRWC), the CPP Information Bureau pointed out the possibility that “they can come together in mass demonstrations on September 21 to mark the 45th year of the declaration of martial law, recall the fascist crimes of the US-Marcos dictatorship and hold Duterte accountable for the crimes perpetrated in the three wars of his fascist regime.”

In the course of the next few weeks and months, said CPP, “more and more local assemblies, indoor rallies and street demonstrations can be mounted to reach out and mobilize the biggest number of people in their communities and towns.

“Barangay centers, auditoriums, ampitheaters and coliseums can serve as venues to try Duterte for his crimes, hear the grievances of his victims and galvanize them to action … against Duterte’s bureaucrat capitalist rule, puppetry to US imperialism especially military intervention in Marawi and elsewhere, imposition of new taxes, surrender of territory to China in exchange for onerous and burdernsome loans, demolition of homes, land grabbing for plantations and infrastructure projects and other anti-people policies and programs.”

No amount of propaganda, Duterte bravado, political and legal maneuvers will stop the groundswell of protest actions demanding an end to his regime of death and destruction, said CPP.
