thinking about the variety of Philippine languages and how even in Bisaya, there's a class division. when really in the eyes of the dominant Tagalog culture, we're all considered lower class anyways
I came from Siquijor and Bohol is only a boat-ride away, but the Bisaya I grew up with is different from theirs. Cebuano and Waray also have some resemblance

what's funny is how we're all so close to each other, but hella quick to call each other poor. the fuck is that
using "mga taga bukid"/"from the mountains" as an insult. as if we all gotta live in the city of Manila to be treated as decent
