People's Reactions in Social Media regarding the Martial Law Extension


In class, we were tasked to read out the people’s comments and reactions in regarding to the articles posted which were about the extension of Martial Law here in Mindanao. As can widely be seen, it has indeed become a norm for people especially in social media to insult people when they express their own thoughts and opinions. Most people who commented and reacted were from Luzon and were not affected by the implemented Martial Law. That being said, the people from Mindanao felt ridiculed because they are the ones being affected and not the people of Luzon.  

One of the striking comments that I’ve read there is that the term Martial Law has a bad image because of what has happened in the past because of Marcos. While the Martial Law of Pres. Digong is far different than that but since it carries the term of Martial Law, people would automatically associate it with the Marcos’ Martial Law.

Most people of Luzon claimed that they disliked the extension of Martial Law because it showed prevalent violence instead of welfare while most people of Mindanao liked Martial Law because it gives them the assurance of security and leading to less violence, such as killing, kidnapping, etc.

Instead of learning from the opinions of others and listening to them genuinely, most people with different thoughts would automatically contradict them and they would express their opinions as well and they make sure about that by insulting the person rather than truly making a point.

“Design’s fundamental role is problem solver.”

Design Thinking: How Designers Solve Problems According to Emilie Johnston from CloudApp, Designers have a unique way of seeing the world and that perspective can add some major value to the business. But a traditional task-oriented design mindset won't get you there. Here are some of the ways great designers innovate their way to the top. Make problem-solving the priority The colors, the creativity, the endless possibilities for how to make a product better, easier, sexier. Hands down, the BEST thing about design, is that it's fun. Really fun. The problem with it being fun, is that you could literally spend hours obsessing over fonts, and never solve a single problem for your users. Great designers relish the details, but never lose sight of the bigger picture.
