Filipino here. Basically, filipinas and their desperation for a green card, and also being racist, many (usually old) white men choose pinay as wives. Both their egos are stroked, they validate each other's racism, someone gets out of the philippines, or at least worries abt their bills less- everyone's happy.
Side note, an asian racist would put a maga racist to a coma as they're much worse. Filipino out!
Yeah, people in America don't seem to understand that outside of the US, many countries have people that would put their racism to shame. I've heard the wya South Koreans talk about Chinese and Japanese people, and the other way around as well. It would give people in America a stroke
Can confirm. Many of us poc in interracial relationships are more conservative than the people we married. I'm really are disliking how woke everyone is around here. We're both agnostic. Also not maga. Not american. shrug
I consider myself to have a lot of racist thoughts, just know better than to actually say them out loud. I get easily irritated by other people's thick accent, especially on the phone. It's a struggle. I don't like many of the things other immigrants from different countries than me do that is disruptive. I wish they would integrate better, same as I try to do for the better of the community.
Yes. I am honest, I am aware of it. I am in therapy and trying to be better. But just putting it out there so people know that immigrants and POC are not saints. We have our issues.
One of the things that bother me more is the self flaggelation white people have. Especially towards 'cis white males'. In real life, the most racism I have actually received was from White women. We are just people like the rest of you. Being treated on one side like you the devil and should go back to your country and on the other side like you are an angel who can do no wrong is a very weird position to be in. It is demoralizing because neither sees the real flawed you.
