An abandoned community for the Philippines and all things Filipino! ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ญ


Started out as a Reddit alternative during the blackout from Jun 12-21, 2023 with over 1k members in just a few days. Fizzled faster than the "I Didn't Do It" kid after a month until it became the internet's Centralia in less than a year.

I do, because I believe I'm more than any preconceived stereotypes people have regarding Filipinos.

That's truly sad to hear. Hopefully it will improve as Filipino culture becomes better known worldwide.

My wife is Filipino who has been in America 6 years or so and she is quite proud of it.

I had a few Filipino co-workers who were also very proud of their heritage, they showed me a lot of their cooking.

Yes, let them cook!

Homecooked Filipino meals are so good.

Not really. I tend to operate on a "don't ask, don't tell" basis when it comes to my origins.

it is less of shame and more of an opsec thing.

I've never heard a single negative stereotype about Filipinos and I live in a pretty racist country: USA
