i am back and here to share filipino superstitions bc the post u reblogged

a lot of filipinos are suprisingly supersitious, even in the city.

- when knocking on a door we say "tao po?" (basically is "someone there?" but in a literal translation it's "is there a human in there?") not just bc we're asking if someone's home but bc we're asking if there's a HUMAN on the otherside of the door, if they don't answer dont open the door. they're probably not human. i think it's the same if you hear someone knock on your door.

- when passing by a tree, or anywhere a spirit might live in we say "tabi-tabi po" (translation: "excuse me." or "move out of the way please.") so that any spirit isn't distrubed and offended. this also includes if you're doing you're business outside. (before toilets were commom)

- when coming froma wake or funeral, you should "pagpag" which is basically like brush off your clothing so that a spirit doesnt follow you home. you shouldn't go home immediately after a funeral or wake either because a spirit might follow you home.

if you noticed a lot of filipino folklore and superstitions involve getting haunted or killed, yeah. idk why we're so facisnated by the dead either. even my family (who's mainly in the city and very catholic is somewhat superstious.)

- chicken liver

Oo !!! I love the tabi-tabi po one. They're kinda lovely, i think, the sort of respect shown for spirits even if you can't see them </3

Narzekają tu, że hindusi udają w swojej telewizji, że hindusi są biali, wtem odzywają się wszyscy niebiali, że u nich to samo xd

Dodają, że w przypadku mężczyzn też tak jest. Po tureckich serialach i zależnościach wśród murzynów stwierdzam, że mężczyźni mają większe prawo być ciemnymi. Jednak latynosi piszą, że u nich nawet od mężczyzn jest wymagany europejski wygląd.

(ps. I Polacy wciąż będą myśleć, że latynosi są biali, bo widzą tylko ich promowaną, europejską wersję xd Amerykanie natomiast widzą ich na żywo, gdyż latynosi to ich tania siła robocza i doskonale sobie zdają sprawę, że to nie są biali ludzie)

A dlaczego uważają, że każdy chce być biały? Bo chcą się zbliżyć do wyglądu wyższej cywilizacji:

To znaczy w społeczeństwie będą wieczne kompleksy w stosunku do tych, którzy ich podbijali. #stare#znamy

Azjatycka duma tak boli, że wciskają kpopkom i animeświrom, że to wybielanie się nie ma nic wspólnego z białymi ludźmi, tylko chcą wyglądać, jak azjatycka arystokracja, która nie pracowała (klasizm). Wasza arystokracja też miała blond włosy albo niebieskie oczy?? 🤡
