Some bloggers (I think that includes Manolo Quezon) wishes or recommends other bloggers to stop commenting against Chip Tsao's latest tirade against Filipinos. If you're still not familiar with this, check out what this chap wrote online. He wrote a disparaging article about Filipinos, in the context of our recent Archiepelagic Baselines Bill, which includes a part of the Spratlys Group of islands. What he said shows his racial bias.
I do understand where Manolo is coming from. Since Chip Tsao is not a popular columnist writer to begin with, he does not deserve our attention. The more we write about him, the more popular he becomes. Chip Tsao is a known instigator, a "shock jock", as what my friend and fellow blogger Ding Gagelonia said. What he did is what is called "pathological trap". He wants the issue discussed.
I know where they're coming from, although, I would probably say that our selectiveness in our attacks comes from our inate cultural biases. It's quite surprising that we threw brimstones and all against Pangandaman etal (that includes the recent social climber who made a Duty Free employee kneel down before him) who are all Filipinos, yet we are wont to attack this Cheap Chow? Are we now saying that only Filipinos are fair game online, not racist pigs such as this one? Do we now have double standards in justice?
Let us not discuss about the bill; just discuss the racial slur this lowly and pitiful writer of cheap stuff did.
