“At some point, when we realize all the wrongs we did, and
are doing over the years, we feel the wars within ourselves. We
learn to silence our conscience but one’s conscience doesn’t die.
The guilt simply gets buried. Until such a time that we cannot
take it anymore,” Victor said.
As Victor narrated (see Chapter 7), many cadres face the
difficulty of reconciling their revolution against providing
for the needs of their families. Because of the flow of monetary
funds, for example, they see many are tempted to accept money
direct from politicians and other people they get revolutionary
taxes from. This becomes a potential source of corruption for
many.
“It’s easy for those who hold resources to access them
when they need to. But when other units request for funds, the
response is slow. The party is no different from the government.
There are people who steal money in the millions. These people
are usually killed. I personally know three who were killed
because they stole CPP funds,” Victor said.
