[EDIT] THIS IS A HOAX [/EDIT]

Wow, i just stumbled upon this today in another forum. I just wanted to hear your thoughts on it.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

QUOTE
This is a very disturbing open E-mail letter to all Filipinos around the world; specially here in North America!, from a man who has the power
to reach million of people. (he's a radio talk host)

Please read on..............

This is an open letter email by Art Bell, a radio talk show host in Nevada(more info in the email itself). Here is yet another person who has taken advantage of his power and privilege to use hateful words and racial stereotypes that breed further ignorance and intolerance in our society.

Art Bell is a talk radio host who has two shows that he broadcasts from his home in Nevada, that is rebroadcast by 400 stations across the country.

He's written 2 books. He lived in Okinawa, Japan for some years and had a radio program on the English station here. And, though it's hard to believe after reading the following letter from him, he actually has been to the Philippines (he's
traveled fairly extensively around the world).

Check out his website listed at the end to get a who's spreading this hateful ignorance. And letter is so degrading, I think it's really important that everybody read this and not attack him, but respond to him in a civilized manner because otherwise his thoughts will be reaffirmed. Understand that not everyone has a viewpoint like we do, and that this is an opinion of someone who hopefully can be changed only by civil actions. - May Munoz

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Filipinos.....*make me puke* (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 "blackthang". "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 his 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 it's 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 some how 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 not 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....

Sincerely,
Art

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

For now, I'm speechless. I didn't even know that people had such ill feelings towards Filipinos. I have grown up in an environment where the only filipino folks I knew was my immediate family. Do people really see us this way?

no roxy, not everyone thinks of filipinos in that way.

he's just trying to downgrade your race, and he's stereotyping filipinos by the things he's noticed from the few filipino-amercans that he's observed.

every race will get their little "stereotypical" bashing. its sad.

don't be too affected by what that guy has to say.

this line is really retarded, a lot of WHITE PEOPLE uses Japanese cars too, why is he attacking filipinos with a reason about CAR??? That just doesn't fit in my opinion. And who cares what race you are in??? There are SO MANY filipinos in this world and he's probably just judging by one or two that he know of! And what's with that "Filipinos have begun to infest the United States like some sort of disease" thing? United States is a multi-culture country and a DISEASE? He seriously need to pick better words... And no, i don't feel anything different about filipinos, he's just a racist with a lot to learn and need to keep an open mind when he's traveling "fairly extensively around the world". If i get this letter in any wrong way, excuse me please. mellow.gif

i was speechless for a minute. but now i'm just MAD. where does he get off saying that shit about filipinos? HE'S NOT EVEN ASIAN. he's basing everything he says on stereotypes. we don't talk about sex all the time. we DO have enormous respect for one another. we get successful like most everyone else does, NOT through prostitution. all guys aren't obsessed with import racing. and he says we're not asian. IF YOU'RE SO SMART THEN WHERE THE HELL ARE WE FROM, DUMB SHIT? and we are NOT trashy. if anything, somebody who trashes and demeans other people's race is trashy.

"Your Identity is Filipino". DAMN RIGHT. and proud of it.

that man deserves to be kicked HARD in the crotch.

well he's a redneck in nevada who is probably dating a japanese woman... and i know this because my mom is japanese and they tend to be very racist against other asian cultures but especially filipino... so I can see where he's coming from but I definetly don't agree. Filipinos ARE asian too (I guess he doesn't know what that term means and he's just judging the words 'asian' by appearence) but I do know many very successful Filipinos and I also know that some of the most beautiful women in the world are Filipino.

That person is so ignorant. It's horrible how these ...people can pass out their hateful messages on air and such.

It's truly disgusting and it saddens me to see that racism/discrimination continues to happen. Sadly, I've also come across racial occurences.

One instance was whilst I was reading this e-mail I got about Vanity Fair article on the Dame Edna section, I decided to investigate to see if that given article was true or not. I went to my local library and searched through some of the Vanity Fair editions and I came across the article. I was...shocked. A person had asked for advice to which language they should take...

QUOTE
Vanity Fair, Vanities page, February 2003, page 116

Dear Dame Edna,

I would very much like to learn a foreign language, preferably French or Italian, but every time I mention this, people tell me to learn Spanish instead. They say, "Everyone is going to be speaking Spanish in 10 years.' George W. Bush speaks Spanish." Could this be true? Are we all going to have to speak Spanish? -- Torn Romantic, Palm Beach


This is the thoughtless response:
QUOTE
Dearn Torn,

Forget Spanish. There's nothing in that language worth reading except Don Quixote, and a quick listen to the CD of Man of La Mancha will take care of that. There was a poet named Garcia Lorca, but I'd leave him on the intellectual back burner if I were you. As for everyone's speaking it, what twaddle! Who speaks it that you are really desperate to talk to? The help? Your leaf blower? Study French or German, where there are at least a few books worth reading, or, if you're American, try English.



^ Saddens me to say that this is true.

Reading the e-mail you just posted up...it's clearly amazing how that Art guy could have lived his life for such a long time behind the curtain of cognitive content.

QUOTE
The only filipinos that can live successfully in Japan are the filipino prostitutes.


What the heck? For someone who has written two books, he sure has the mentality of a 1-year old. He has no knowledge about things whatsoever.

Where does he get the idea where we try to associate ourselves as Japanese or Chinese? I have not yet one person in my life who have thought that. I dunno. I'm just so mad and shocked, that I really don't know what to say...

One point i have to make clear is i never said he should be blamed for it if it's a hoax. But there's still haters against Fillipino and well, that hater probably hate Art Bell as well. And why does a famous person make such a big difference? We are talking about haters and now that Art Bell is not to blame, does this mean that we have to stop this discussion?

the letter is signed in the name of Art Bell. But Art Bell didn't write it. The first post on this thread accuses Art Bell of writing the letter, and everyone is reading the first post and getting enraged. Enraged at who? Not "the author" but Art Bell. Not cool.

I never said anything about you not getting mad at who made the letter, I'm mad that the people here are believing Art Bell did it.

this is kind of off topic, but i would like to know are Filipinos asian or not? as a black person, i have no idea. My friend mark, who is filipino, doesnt say he is asian. he identifies w/ pacific islanders. Also, at my old school in washington( where there were a lot of asians) filipinos joined the pacific islander club w/ samoans and hawaiians etc. The asian club was for chinese, korean, japanese (though i dont think there were any japanese), and the other asian countries.

so are ya'll asian?

this is kind of off topic, but i would like to know are Filipinos asian or not? as a black person, i have no idea. My friend mark, who is filipino, doesnt say he is asian. he identifies w/ pacific islanders. Also, at my old school in washington( where there were a lot of asians) filipinos joined the pacific islander club w/ samoans and hawaiians etc. The asian club was for chinese, korean, japanese (though i dont think there were any japanese), and  the other asian countries.

so are ya'll asian?
curious

rika

I dont know. I dont really consider myself Asian Either. And we have different cultural backgrounds such as Spanish, Chinese, Korean, and Japanese. But I think if youre born there no matter what race you are youre Flip. Same goes to all the countries. Plus I dont care My country is beautiful and Im proud to be in it.

There is no continent called the Pacific Islands. (It's a region) Geographically, Filipinos are official Asians.

He is been the victim of a global smear campaign.
A racist article that has been on the internet for three years has been published by a leading newspaper in the Philippines. Art Bell's wife is half Fillipino.

Bell, who in the article is thought to have bashed the Phillipines way of life, is receiving hundreds of death threats against himself and his family. Art Bell returns to the air Thursday, according to guest host Ian Punting...

um excuse me, but being considered "asian" is referring to a "continent" and "flip" is referring to a "country"..

and i know a lot of filipino people who don't refer to themselves as "flip"

so anyways... you guys ARE asian b/c you come from a country that's located in ASIA. even if you have spanish, norwegish, belgish, martian, neptunian, or WHATEVER in you... you're an ASIAN because the PHILIPPINES is LOCATED in ASIA.

so there. mellow.gif

I am proud of my Asian culture and my Filipino Culture...

But, I once asked my mom what our ansestors were and she told me that they were as I quote " negroes' " or black. Also, I see that our language tagalog or whatever is mostly rooted through the spanish culture. Don't get me wrong I totally hate this dude for saying what he said cus he has no right. But, from where I live a lot or mostly all of the flips here are obsessed with import tuning and gossiping. Not saying that they don't have anything else to do or that they don't respect each other I am just stating the stuff I see here. Our physical characteristics are to obivious that we are a part of the asiain culture. For an example: THE CHINKY EYES....Though they are not as chinky they still have a little squint in them.

We are all apart of each other. If you believe in GOD and the Bible, then you know that Adam and Eve were the first humans and all the humans derived from them. So saying this we are all related in some sort of a way.

This person just needs to realize that his words will just strenthen the whole filipino community. As I read a while ago there is only one race "The human race!"

wow those are some harsh words...there was a place in there that said something and after it was "that's a fact". its really retarded cuz what he said was an opinion. and even if the phillipines is a third world country (don't know if it is) it doesn't mean that the filipinos have to act that way. ohmy.gif

That's just MEAN! None of us white/blacks/whatevers think of filipinos that way. And if Hawaii can be in the U.S.A and Iceland can be in Europe, than the Phillipines can be in Asia!

Here, in suburbian Los Angeles, the people who match "Young Filipino men in America have become obsessed with 'import racing'.", are mostly Vietnamese. But even so, I think Vietnamese are good people. I'm just not noticing the better side of them. Also here in suburbia Los Angeles, Filipinos specificly say, "NOT ASIAN".

Philipinians are cool.

I'm Chinese. People look down to us too. You're not the only one.

That guy is just talking bullsh*t.

A frantic caller calls in saying he worked at Area 51 and he's being chased now, then the connection is lost. Just keep listening after the line is cut.

uuuurrrrrm. Well the FILIPINO culture IS closely related to the spanish culture in some ways. Some of the cities have Spanish names. and the language is has quite a few spanish words in it. and the days and months have spanish words in it too. let's not forget about the numbers.


But other than that...all the other things he said were quite wrong even if it is a hoax.

If the person who wrote that hoax actually think it is true then what a ignorant person. To me PI isn't so much "third world". The filipino people are not to blame for their country's poverty. It was the corrupted government and pres marcos who stole millions from the PI. Also the PI was the number one country in producing rice, but now thailand is. Presently the PI is leading country in the fish market, although china and india are quickly about to dethrone us from that.

A filipino is a filipino. Trying to classify people is stupid. To say filipinos are "mexicans" or "spaniards" is not by any means correct. We are influenced by the spaniards when they came to conquer the PI. Some filipinos have hispanic blood in them, then again some filipinos also have chinese blood in them.

Just to let you all know. _smile.gif

I have nothing against Filipinos or whatever you are. I'm not racist.

But I did laugh when I heard that line... something about a perverted obsession with cars... And I have to agree. Sure, white people drive Japanese cars, but they don't try to 'trick' them out with lights and rims and body kits and blue flames. It's so cheesy. Stop.

Be pissed all you want, but you know it's true. tongue.gif
