@AsiansMatter Like literally looking "Filipino" is an insult to some countries like Korea...so it's good to see these darker-skinned Asians being represented whether mixed or not

[lalachi @lalachi10]

@AsiansMatter Also I see comments saying that these half-Filipino artists such as Olivia are East Asian when they're not? Also I don't see people discuss the discrimination of EA against dark-skinned Asians...

[lalachi @lalachi10]

And what hurts more is that a good chunk of hate are from fellow Filipinos?? like c'mon man respeto naman

[lalachi @lalachi10]

All this unnecessary heat towards Olivia and her Asian-ness. How about we also consider the discrimination SEA receive from EA (not all but it's there) and how EAs do not represent the whole of Asia hm? I'm not a fan of both but the tweets I've been seeing are plain ignorant

[lalachi @lalachi10]

Let's be real here, you don't want Asian representation, you want YOUR Asian representation. I SO wish we have better representation but dragging Olivia Rodrigo who is mixed as you demand justice for Asians is pure HYPOCRISY.

@bang7ansmenu @devilsjm @autumnaffairs As a Filipino (I'm also only half), I feel represented by her. If you actually follow her before she blew up she actually talked about her Fil side often. :)

@autumnaffairs Hello! I'd just like to say that Olivia has been vocal of her Filipino side way back. As someone who knew her from HSMTMTS she actually plays half-Filipino Nini and before that she's also Paige Olivera in Bizaardvark, both Disney. She talks about her Asian side in interviews too!

@rsurtida Genuine question po, since I've noticed na lagi ko po kayong nakikita sa Leni side of Twitter. Si Marcos po ba iboboto niyo? And if yes, bakit po? No malicious intent po. Thank you!
