Australia has a horrible history of hunting aboriginals for sport as well...they continued the practice longer than most western conquistadors although the Spanish, Dutch and Scottish had bad reputations for much of the same...read B. Traven's March to the Monteria about the Scottish mahoghany logwood slave labor camps in latin America sometime...cutting out their tongues so they wouldn't speak amongst themselves and hanging them in the trees at night so they wouldn't run away....some horrible shit done in the name of spreading western culture....the slaves used drums to communicate when they lost the ability to use speech.

Thousands of years later, mankind is still not as "civilized" as we would like to think

yeah....we basically slaughtered the American bison to conquer and starve out our own native population for the aryan expansion...we have an ugly history when it comes to genocide and land grabbing.

Filipinos are extremely passive aggressive, especially the illocanos.

With the possible, but unlikely, exception of one, the other two Filipinos that I know are as nice as anyone I've ever had the pleasure of knowing.
The Samoan, well, he's been voted one ot the two nicest guys in that 30 member unit. He's tied for first place. The two Filipinos have to be a very very close second place.
In all honest, and I've had experiences with the medical personnel in virtually all departments of the VA hospital, all medical personnel there seem very nice. I'm pretty happy with the VA hospital and I can be pretty picky. When I first started going there in 1969 and while attending with my brother, who was another 100% service connected disabled Veteran starting in 1974, the hospital was a big fat disgrace. The VA health care has gradually improved under every President except one, Trump and I'm going to have to say that it's a bit early to judge Trump on that. The bad part is that Trump tried to end the VA health care system and transition us to public health care. 50 years ago that was a great idea but definitely not now.

Filipinos are generally almost too nice. It actually gets extremely annoying when you are there.

But like I said, behind your back is a different story. Extremely gossipy and always fishing for information
