EVERY OPPRESSOR HAS MEDICINE — AND SOME LESSONS STAY FOR LIFE

VDM shared a powerful personal story from his secondary school days — not for laughs, but to explain something deeper about power, bullying, and intimidation.

Back then, there was a boy named Daniel. Feared. Intimidating. Protected by area boys outside the school.

Anything students brought to school — food, money, radios, MP3 players — Daniel would collect it. Sometimes he returned them. Sometimes he didn’t. Most people stayed quiet because they were scared.

One day during break time at an uncompleted building where students gathered, VDM challenged Daniel publicly during a joking insult game known as “yabbing yabbing.”

At first, it was laughs on both sides. Then the crowd started laughing more at Daniel. Daniel got frustrated — and crossed the line.

He insulted VDM’s mother.

The atmosphere changed instantly. No laughter. Just silence.

VDM stayed quiet, knowing that if he spoke in that moment, emotion would take over. But the lesson didn’t end there.

Days later, VDM returned — not with fists, not with violence — but with strategy. Using ridicule instead of fear, he flipped the power dynamic in front of the entire school.

That moment broke Daniel’s intimidation forever.

From that day on, Daniel stopped bullying people.

And here’s the lesson VDM shared:

👉 Every oppressor has medicine.
👉 No matter how powerful you think you are, someone exists who will stop you.
👉 Never insult someone’s mother — pain cuts deep and destroys permanently.

VDM explained that this same principle guides his work today. Bullies, scammers, fraudsters, oppressors — they all operate until someone exposes the one thing that ends their confidence.

“Not literal mama pants,” he said — but that one truth, that one exposure, that one accountability that stops the nonsense.

This is why the internet matters: Not for cruelty. Not for noise. But for balance.

If you oppress people quietly — someone will eventually speak loudly.

And when that happens, the learning is always the hard way. 😂
