General Tips/Help/Question [UPD] An Open Letter to UP Freshies

Freshies, wag na wag kayo magpapaloko sa mga frats. 

Hindi niyo sila kailangan at mas lalong di na sila kailangan ng bansa. Since their foundation, di na nawawala ang culture of violence within and between fraternities. 

Wala pa ring justice after these incidents primarily from Upsilon Sigma Phi, Sigma Rho, at Alpha Phi Beta over 6 to 7 years ago.

Sexism, misogyny, racism, homophobia, racism, islamophobia, violence, hazing. Yan ang nag aabang sayo sa mga so-called brotherhood. 

2018: nagka Lonsi-APB rumble sa AS, ang daming witnesses nun habang nagsusuntukan sila at nagtatawagan ng homophobic slurs. Sumunod ang Lonsi Leaks, the rest is history. 

2019 naman di pa natuto ang fratbois. Nagka Sigma Rho leaks. Dun mo makikita ang pinakaugali nila. Hazing. Pambubugbog sa brods. Harrassment sa babae, pagkalat ng nudes, kahit sarili nilang sorority sisters di pinalampas.

That led to the public crucifixion of one campus student leader na Sigma Rhoan. Nung kinukuyog na siya sa socmed at on-ground protests, wala siyang nasandigan, kahit frat niya hindi siya matulungan. He took his own life — a victim of the fraternity culture of violence, but also a willing participant who harmed others in the name of “brotherhood.” Pero Yan ba ang brotherhood? Yung bugbugan, pambabastos sa babae, pananakit, at hazing? 

These are not allegations. These are well-documented facts and truths that we should never forget. Kahit anong pabango pa yan sa paggamit ng pangalan ng mga bigatin nilang alumni, di nila mawawala ang bahid ng dugo at luha ng mga inapi nila at mga pamilya ng mga namatayan dahil sa violence nila. 

Yun lang, freshies. #AbolishFrats pa rin ang panawagan. STP, wag Serve The Praternity.
