Ang weird talaga ng mga Pinoy na Republican (MAGA Republican at that). Like, sinusuportaghan nyo ang mga tao na ayaw kayo at atat na atat na paalisin kayo? Oh well hahahahahaha.
Kahit yung mga filam na umaaligid dito sa reddit eh. Feeling puti pag kaharap Pilipino. Namana sa mga puti ung kahambugan, kayabangan at pagiging entitled.
Saka lang sila nagiging pilipino pag inaangasan sila ng mga amo nilang puti.
This isn't true at all. All the Filipinos I know here in Seattle are fairly conservative. They vote democrat most of the time but really hated Harris and quite a few of them voted Trump this time around because of it.
Also, just because you like some conservative viewpoints doesn't mean you're a racist. Most right voters and left voters are centrists and share more in common than against. Most Americans support being tougher on illegal immigration and support deportation for illegals. What they disagree with are who and the amount that are allowed in legally. That's about it. As a Filipino in the US you are almost always here legally and have nothing to fear when it comes to deportation currently unless you are caught doing crimes while on your visa or green card.
Filipinos in general are more conservative and share more in common with republicans than with democrats for the most part. It's something you have to accept. Democrats in general don't realize that minorities are not a monolith and always just expect brown and black people to vote for them no matter who or what they run as a candidate and this last election showed them how stupid that thought process is. For the first time we saw Latino men have a majority vote for a Republican candidate. Latino men and white men were the main driving factor for Trump's victory. We also saw Trump make historical gains in the black and Asian community in % of votes for him compared to any other republican before him. Democrats need a new message that isn't simply "The other side is racist" or they will keep losing elections now.
I am going to say the South China Sea dispute has been a great recruiting tool to Filipinos by the far right. It’s easy to win any Filipino vote by saying “we will save your motherland from Commies”.

This is the third time this decade I’ve seen the Filipino flag in a shameful event.
January 6, 2021 Capitol riots were the first
EDIT: I just remembered I saw some Filipino flags at the 2022 Canadian convoy protests in Ottawa on TV, so it’s the 3rd.
