Have we lost it?

Well, a lot of brouhaha going on about how Teri Hatcher's character "belittled" Filipino doctors ad how is radio commentator Mr. Art Bell seems to be going on an anti Filipino tirade.

I say, let go of the first one. It was a script that had a pun. There are so many ethnic jokes out there! I say, thank the heavens we're finally in it! Teri Hatcher just read a script. Let it go. There's such a thing called humor. Get one.

Filipinos.....*make me garden* (Art Bell)

As we've all come to notice, in the past few decades, Filipinos have begun to infest the United States like some sort of disease. Their extensive involvement in the U.S. Armed Forces is proof of the trashy kind of qualities all filipinos tend to exhibit on a regular basis. You can see this clearly by studying the attitudes and cultural Icons of most Filipino Americans.

Origins of Pinoys/Pinays:

Are they really asian? Well we've come to accept the fact the filipinos come from a part of the world known as South East Asia. But the term 'Asia' is used in the wrong way. You may notice that contemporary Filipino Americans try very hard to associate themselves with groups that we know as Asian. I cannot count the number of times I have seen a 'Third World' Filipino try to connect themselves to the chinese or Japanese people. There is no connection and here's why. The Philippines is a Third World country. Nothing respectable has EVER been created by Filipino people during our entire human history. Young filipino men in America have become obsessed with 'import racing'. They have an enormously perverted affection for Japanese cars. It's a common phenomenon. In their minds, these Filipinos somehow believe that they are asian and that it somehow connects them to Japanese people and japanese cars. They often take credit for the ingenuity of Japanese people and say how it's an ' Asian thing'. This term...'Asian thing' derived directly from African American slang 'black thang'. 'It's a black thang.' 'It's an asian thang.'

You can see the connection. It's even funnier that, in Japan, Filipinos are heavily discriminated against. The only filipinos that can live successfully in Japan are the filipino prostitutes. But that's the case for most Filipino people no matter where they live in the world. Now we've come down to this fact...and it is a fact.

Nothing in Filipino Culture can be seen as Asian.

They have no architectural, artistic, or cultural influence which is in ANY way, asian. Thinking of the great countries in Asia such as Japan, Korea, and China there is no way you can possibly connect the Philippine Islands. This assault by filipino americans to connect themselves with the great peoples of North East Asia is foul and disgusting. Try visiting a young filipino's web site too.

You'll see something called the 'Asian IRC Ring'. It has to do with the chatrooms. The most horrible thing about this is that these TRASHY people are trying to associate themselves with Asia again!! People in Asia don't act like this at all. What we are seeing here is the natural Filipino in its element with full access to technology and this is how they act! You will consistently see this behavior over and over again.

Another interesting thing is that these 'thirdworld' people also frequent RC chatrooms such as #chinese #japan and #asian. They must believe that they are somehow related racially or culturally to North Asians. But it's completely WRONG! There might have been some distant contact With China and even less with Japan during World War II, but these people are actually more closely related to african americans and Mexican americans.

Do the parents of these young filipinos know what's going on? Would they accept this? I believe that they would and do. This is the natural 'Trash' element in filipinos manifesting itself. Nothing good has ever come from Philippines and I don't believe anything good ever will.

Recognizing your Roots (A Message to Filipinos). To all filipino people:
Please recognize your ROOTS! You come from the Third World! You country is a disgusting and filthy place. Most people there live in poverty! Your culture has MUCH MORE SPANISH influence than chinese, and absolutely no JAPANESE influence whatsoever. People in Japan and China, do not act like you. They do not constantly talk about sex and they have a MUCH HIGHER level of RESPECT for each other. There is NO WAY that you can connect yourself to Asia other than location.

Your culture and technological advancement does no! t even come CLOSE to What Chinese, people have done in the past and what Japanese and Korean people are doing now! Everything you do is distinctly filipino. You cannot take credit for Japanese cars, video games, or Hentai! It's not an 'asian thing' it's an 'American thing'. You have no concept of culture...no concept of asian ideas or asian philosophy! Can you demonstrate how you use Confucianism or Taoism in you everyday life?? You can't. And you will NEVER be able to.

I understand that you are trying to create an identity for yourselves as young people... but it is NOT related to Asia. Your Identity is Filipino.
That's all you are. Just Filipino. Think about what that means....

Art Bell on the other hand is simply an idiot with a mouth. His supposed anti Filipino remarks are proof to his idiocy.

Mr. Bell, the Philippines is part of Asia, that's why we are classified as Asians. You also spell Japanese, Chinese and Asians this way. Unless they're teaching you white folks something else that we're not aware of. But who am I to say you're wrong? I mean, 68% of your teenagers can't even find your country in a globe. (see Ms. South Carolina below)



We are not Japanese, you are correct to assume. We have been, however, been colonized by the Japanese as we have been by the Americans, British, (shortly by) the Dutch and (briefly) by the French. We've been part of the trade routes of the Arabs and Chinese, long before Magellan even discovered the Philippines. These cultures have been infused with our own, making them unique as a permutation and not as a mutation. There is a difference.

We act differently than our Asian counterparts because we are different from them, Mr. Bell. We have our own culture that reflects our personalities. In the US, we have teenagers who get pregnant at 14, kill for drugs at 16 and get convicted for life by the time they are 18. We don't let our grandparents live their last days in an old folks home. We fight for our rights without having to spill blood. How many revolutions did you have that weren't bloody Mr. Bell?

We never say "It's an Asian thang." For starters, we know that it's "thing" never "thang". Our education and inbred common sense states that. We say "Proud to be Pinoy" because we are.

Look at Filipinos all over the world! We have Lea Salonga, Bata Reyes, Manny Pacquiao, Roberto del Rosario (karaoke inventor), Fe del Mundo (incubator and jaundice reverser machine inventor), Daniel Dingel (water powered car inventor), Eduardo San Juan (moon buggy creator), Agapito Flores (fluorescent lamp inventor), Gregorio Zara (videophone technology that we are all enjoying today), the makers of the iloveyou.bug, Dr. Aberlardo Aguilar (discovered erythromycin), the jeep, adobo, Apl de Ap, etc, etc, etc.

You, Mr. Bell are an idiot. I'll see you in the US when I get there. I'll let you see the business end of another Filipino staple, the icepick.

Whoops! That's a hoax! If I remember correctly, The Philippine Daily Inquirer (PDI) published an email similar to this (or maybe this was it) that was supposed to have come from Mr. Art Bell. PDI then learned it was a hoax, so they had to apologize for it. Mr. Bell has always been vocal about his admiration for the Filipino people. In fact, he married a pinay.

I hope you'd correct this particular journal entry.
