    I am also Russian, I will not call Philippino people stupid. Some of them are disrepectful on the road (drivers don't give way to pedestrians), some of them when they see a foreigner shout HEY JOE (they think that all foreigners are Americans?), some of them when they when they see a foreigner, say GAGO. But mostly Philippinos are very good, kind, respectful and shy.

      3:20 "I don't like...SOME people is a LITTLE stupid."
      When you say "calling us this way" it implies you take it as if he said "everyone is stupid".
      He said "SOME" meanining "not us".
      Russian used the word "Some" meaning "only SOME of us" is a LITTLE stupid(not FULL stupid).
      Gotta get the details accurate especially when our kababayans have tendencies to exaggerate and overreact.😉
      REAL TALK: lampas 50% pinoy ay "stupid".
      Reason?
      (it's how you differentiate the terms STUPID from IDIOT.)
      STUPID(tanga)
      means you are SMART enough to know what is right from wrong but STILL went ahead to do the wrong thing.
      IDIOT(bobo)
      = low I.Q.; can't discern what is right from wrong.
      DEFINITELY hindi ganyan ang Pinoy.
      We are HIGHLY intelligent. But we often use EMOTIONS (instead of logic) in decision making.
      It ends up in doing stupid acts and reactions.

    Glad to know he mentioned different groups like The Russians in Phuket and the Australians in Bali. Once a certain group likes an area the news spreads and more and more come over to that area. I kind of understand what the Russian was saying, the Philippines has kind of a let live attitude like the French saying laissez-faire and so there's not as much need to plan. They don't care as much maybe that's why they're so happy and easy going.

      You can do whatever you like of course. It’s in the culture though, that if you are hosting that you care or consider the needs of your guests and requests that are denied only because of your personal preference is unreasonable and rude. Of course I don’t understand your situation, just an input. When in Rome, do as the Romans do.

    What he meant is that Filipino is complacent because we have everything we need and not worry about it. There is food like banana we can harvest all the time but in Russia you need to plan it out for 6 months and when the harvest comes you need to have another plan. This is why he said some people are stupid because we Filipino takes things for granted with this much abundance we have.

  • @askherbs
    @askherbs 6 місяців тому +1

    Maybe because English is not his primary language, what he probably means is lazy, not necessarily stupid. He is just saying that since the Philippines only has one season (hot), there is no need for many of us to think far ahead in the future because everything is always grows and is available. Unlike in other countries where there is winter (very cold) like Russia, people tend to think far ahead and save for the lean months or else they will go hungry because nothing grows or is harvested during winter.

  • @BernyAV
    @BernyAV Місяць тому

    My take on when he said "stupid , it's crazy" is that for him coming from a place where harsh winters that last for months is a reality, where people need to think, work and prepare months ahead for the cold, where life is a literal battle for survival; whereas here, it is diametrically opposite to his country, we have the luxury of a more laid back, relaxed life style which is stupid (READ: unthinkable), so crazy (unbelievable) so as much so as to make it "dislike-able" (READ: uncomfortable) for someone alien to our way of life.
    In short, a massive culture shock for him.

But, the Philippines is on another level when it comes to that. One example is, people there would tell me something in stock when I call. It takes me 1-2 hours (traffic jam) to get from Carmona Cavite to Manila. When I get there they tell me it is not in stock. Out of stock problem is a huge issue in the Philippines. Philippines don't have a lot of domestic companies that produce their own brand of stuff. I am in the auto industry. Getting parts in the Philippines takes months sometimes.

With that said, would this be a deal breaker for anyone wanting to get away from the madness of North America and western Europe? Most likely not. The majority of foreigners don't spend their time with other foreigners. To a lot of us, other foreigners in the Philippines are rejects that we would've never ever even looked at in our home countries. Now... Is it possible to have a conversation about the meaning of life or the reasons why locals are onion skinned with Filipinos? Not a chance... Very very emotional population with a hive mentality that keeps them in a hole. The Philippines was once the most prosperous nation in Asia (that's right. Ahead of China). Those days are long gone and it is reflected in the annual global education rankings (among the least performing nations in STEM and reading comprehension). Learn to hear things that go against what you like and believe. It will do you, and your kababayan, a great deal of good.

      Yes it does sound the man left the country,...as oppose going away for vacation and or a trip
      How the hell you know in any way?
      I will add 3
      You are the only one that thought it was a click bait title
      In short 3 times you presumed, assumed wrongly and or expressed your self up side down
      mmmmhhhh....I need to ask you again
      WHERE ARE YOU FROM? Cavite? 😁😁
      Chill out I am just playing around....I know where are you from
      It was not a click bait, the guy I can assure you is an intelligent man (regardless not being politically correct), and he probably ''left'' Russia as his friends told him The Philippines is a blast....haha
      My advantage is that i lived in more than 12 countries, speak 5 languages, multinational, and traveled around the world.....still learning big time....stop presuming
      At the end of the day 1+1=2 even if may look like 11

    Europeans complain a lot and Asians never complain .unlike west Europeans Russians are not politically correct and say what they think when they are in other countries. if they are in Europe this is not a problem. but in countries like Philippines its quite dangerous to complain even if your complaints are genuine.

    I think what he really meant was that many Filipinos don't plan life way in advance and are more carefree ("stupid" was not the correct or most accurate word) because there's no long, cold, winter season to warrant it, unlike in Russia- if you don't plan for the winter, you could be cold, starving, even no longer alive after winter!

    I don't think stupid is the correct term when it is compared to countries with winter. But I get what he's pointing. And yes, because we only have summer and rainy days, we really do not need to prepare for a different season. As in we can wear the same set of clothes throughout the year.

      Let me tell you something about Filipinos, they are very self aware. If you call them stupid, they know it's true. We even call ourselves those things " ungoy, magnanakow, walanghiya, stupid", If you call most of them lazy, they know it's true. Filipinos know all of this and only if they are in a group they will get aggressive,but if they are by themselves they will most likely ignore you unless you get in their face. It's ok.

    He could be a dodging conscription with the ongoing war with Ukraine. Fighting season is here. If so, how much longer is his passport valid.

      @@Livingabroadalex thanks for responding Alex. I think I’ll leave off reposting my original comment. I Don’t want to get banned by UA-cam. Let’s just say that I have an acute dislike for Russians (because of the war in Ukraine) and my post was an extension of those feelings but it was not directed at you. It was directed at the fascist, draft-dodging, cowardly Russian houseplant who appeared in your vlog. Thanks. -Michael
