Filipino Culture Thread

You think so ? I think it's the former. A lot of our moreno brethens identify with discrimination just because of skin tone. What do I know, I'm light skin filipino with dark skin filipino tendencies. I would like the opinion of someone black about this.

I agree with identifying with discrimination but not equally to a point where BLM becomes an appropriate theme for a fashion show.

The organizers should focus their efforts on EDUCATING Filipinos in the Philippines about Black Lives Matter instead.

also, a fashion show during a pandemic?

If it were here in the US then yeah it would probably be the first one, but the theres a lot of ignorance/racism in the Philippines. I would doubt their knowledge of international race relations.

edit: especially in the context of fashion...they're taking advantage of the situation

They're criticizing Berkeley ? Unless they went to Stanford, I don't think they can talk trash like that.

I was at dope family get together this past Sat where my cousins came down from Chino Hills, LA, and OC.My cousin who was hosting at his house had one of his friends who is a Navy retired guy and his wife are huge MAGA supporters. Night was going good drinking san mig lite, red horse, other stuff like rum & whiskey while eating home made pampanga style sisig and karee kuyre.

Around 10pm his guest brings up politics and starts saying how the election is rigged and the courts will decide this for Trump.I let him ramble on for a good 15 minutes before I asked him about how Trump wouldn’t denounce white supremacy during the first debate. Old Pinoy retired Navy dude says “Oh its all media driven and controlled”. I got up and said good night and bounced my cousins house.

Same thing here bruh. **** is starting to trickle down to the kick its. Love how the MAGA folks are quick to say "Stick to XX (sports, etc.)", but want to spew that **** every second of the day.

I used to think I dont get these racists MAGA Filipinos. Then I think back that dam, naw im over thinking this. Filipinos worship wypipo.

Would be dope if they made an actual movie. I know Pixar would make a good one. A immigration theme or the contrast of different generations.
