man. crazy that people are okay with white/western people speaking over asian voices and immediately start calling asians who have learned English all their lives: illiterate and we're the idiots for getting mad "over a little thing"... filipinos need to get way meaner lmfao
I think Westerners need to reflect on their values. They find this discourse stupid when it's at the center of a cultural and economic shift.
Ube is not just any food stuff. It's associated with Filipino celebrations. The "development" of ube recipes is a very Filipino social experience. We all contribute to it because ube is a symbol of our shared celebrations.
Remember the ube cheese pandesal bakers of the pandemic? No one dared to singularly claim to have developed it. They understood the social dimensions of ube.
That is why when someone claims to have "developed" a vegan ube ice cream, we are all up in arms. You obviously do not understand the important place that ube holds in our cultural heritage. You also do not understand the impact of the demand has on local supply of ube.
So, sorry for your "genuine despair" about the "stupidity of this discourse". We are just outraged by your dismissal of the importance of ube in our culture.
I genuinely despise how you ppl are quick to dismiss valid criticisms from Filipinos who created this and just call them stupid simply because yall don't understand the problem that white people time and time again take credit for something that indigenous peoples already made.
I tipped a delivery guy $2 once because I was broke.
Felt awful about it. Apologized like 5 times.
2 years later I’m standing in line at an airport, phone at 1%, and my flight’s boarding.
Guy behind me taps my shoulder.
