Most Pinoys in the US don't even consider themselves Asian. Why do people think they have anything to do with Asia when they're clearly Pacific Islanders.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philippine_Spanish >Since the capture and occupation of the Philippines by the United States following the Spanish–American War, the dialect has lost most of its speakers and it might be now close to disappearing.
Most people there speak American English.
Nicholas Parker
lol its funny how the US made the Philippines go from Spic to Anglo, when the US is going from Anglo to Spic.
Maybe we'll reintroduce Spanish influence there too.
Daniel Peterson
>You don't think 300 years of Spanish rule and 50 years of American rule changed the genetics of the islands? Not even slightly?
Filipinos literally look like Malays and Indonesians.
John Martin
>>culturally Anglo via US colonization >>values are more Western than Asian
Filipinos in the US are the furthest thing from Latin American acting. They tend to be just darker skinned white people. Especially when it comes to family values.
Samuel Moore
>genetically related to Polynesians like Hawaiians and the Chamorro on Guam like almost everybody on this map?
You can be Asia. We're more like the Samoan and Tongan warriors. Not rich, but at least warrior like.
Noah Allen
Not genetically mutts since we are apparently too ugly for Spain (few Spaniards bothered moving to a barely profitable remote colony) and the Yankees were a bunch anti-miscegenation autists.
Nathan Jackson
No, only us Japanese are considered HONORARY and WARRIOR. Wage war against world's major powers, if you want to claim.
Real question: how do Filipinos feel that American tourists largely avoid visiting your country? Do you feel weird that you're irrelevant on the world stage, like your life really doesn't matter?
Luis Campbell
you are brazilian of asia
Leo Cook
>of asia
The Philippines isn't Asia
John Garcia
>how do Filipinos feel that American tourists largely avoid visiting your country? I actually never noticed that but then again I live in Metro Manila, where there are now more expats than ever before. >Do you feel weird that you're irrelevant on the world stage, like your life really doesn't matter? So like the rest of ASEAN and most of the world, I fail to see how flying under the radar and not being bothered isn't a good thing.
Parker Howard
>I fail to see how flying under the radar and not being bothered isn't a good thing.
Well what use is outside approval, too much just leads to warped views. It doesn't turn into concrete progress.
Anthony Phillips
Filipinos don't sound like that.
Elijah Barnes
I live in California. I've even dated filipinos. They all self identify as Asians and like anime bullshit
Daniel Miller
>NOOO I DOSONT SONDU LIKU DATU
John Myers
>They all self identify as Asians and like anime bullshit
That's funny - in college admissions they're in their own category.
Michael Thomas
Poland is culturally l Latin America xd
Christopher Moore
>have literal black peoples >have BIG forest >christian is also big religion >also have tribal forest tribes. >also love to burn the forests
Fucking Philippines they are annoying, those greentext above and regular text below absolutely unrelated.
Nathan Sullivan
>in college admissions they're in their own category they're not
Ryder Green
because the people who live there look like asians.
Robert Gray
So Hawaii and much of San Francisco is Asia now?
Hudson Adams
>Everyone there speaks perfect English. lol not even fucking close.
Chase Murphy
>the US is going from Anglo to Spic. there's no real hispanic influence outside of the southwest USA, which has always had huge goblino populations given we literally took all that land from mexico in the first place only ~170 years ago.
Caleb Howard
Is Hawaii in Southeast Asia? Is the continental USA? Flips are unmistakably Asian and always have been. Being culturally Western is not the same thing as being of Western descent.
Samuel Baker
>Is Hawaii in Southeast Asia?
Just as much as the Philippines is. It's literally not attached to the Asian continent, neither is it culturally Asian at all.
Jason Gray
no we are the most powerful race on earth.
Connor Rogers
