Thanks for saving me the effort of digging up sources. Even the radical right-wing imperialists at AEI admit the truth:

urging him to undertake major reforms to avert a civil war

So Reagan suggested Marcos step down and allow a slightly more moderate elitist government to take his place, rather than allowing the revolution take place which would bring about a truly popular government. That is standard damage control in manipulating 3rd-World countries.

If I were charitable, I'd say you had gullibly not noticed on this tactic. But, it's more likely you knew this. This is just another case of you "lying by omission".
