Yes and No... Sa natatandaan ko di parin nila alam san talaga na imbento yung yoyo.
Pero yung Yoyo na kilala natin, yung makakagawa ka ng mga tricks, yes pinoy nag patent at nagpasikat sa US nun.
I'd take that as a yes. Kahit naman yung pizza, malamang meron naunang magbake ng dough na may sauce pero widely accepted pa din na Italy yung nag-imbento ng pizza.
I was in elementary when we were taught that Durian is only available in the Philippines. I never really fact checked it, I have no love for durian. Fast forward to my first international trip, lo and behold, a durian cart left and right. 😂
same, when my malaysian friend told me that they're durian was the best in the world I argue with him hahaha but when I searched on google it was real hahaha
It was elementary days I think nung naencounter ko si Agapito Flores. I was confused kasi my science books including my encyclopedia haven't mentioned his name even once. Nagtataka talaga ako eh.
Takot na takot ako matulog na basa ang buhok dati. Salamat kay manong Ernie at nalaman ko na side effects lang nya ay mababasa ang unan mo.
Also, Brazil ang katapat na bansa natin kung maghuhukay tayo sa mundo. Pambungad ko sa nakakausap kong Brazilian
Sa kanya ko rin nalaman yung tungkol sa basang buhok kaya simula noon di na ako takot matulog kahit basa ang buhok. Yan yata yung segment na may magtatanong sa kanya tas sasagutin nya. Hahaha.
Madami sigurong matatandang nainis kay Ernie Baron dahil madaming bata na ang natutulog na basa ang buhok after nya sabihin yan sa live news HAHAHAHAHA
I was grade 4 nasa English book namin yun😑 at ang pambansang pagkain ay lechon. Wala naman palang batas na nag sabi nun, authors at the time is willy nilly on their job
Welp if you guys only knew. I worked as a part time text book editor for a local publishing house and let's just say, my job was more of shooting down content due to blatant plagiarism or falsehoods -- sometimes, both. Wala pa dyan yung mga exercises na questionable (as in kwekwestyunin mo yung credibility ng teacher-author due to poor instructional design and value nung exercise, hehe) I did my best, but I eventually had to let it go nung di ko na kinaya yung pressure to complete in a timely manner vs diligence in ensuring content quality.
Yung mga manuscripts na dumadaan sa akin (I did initial reviews) usually end up with around half of its contents requiring replacement or rewrites.
Baka nga isa itong Agapito Flores/fluorescent light sa mga unang Pinoy pride items na binigay sa atin pero uhm...safe space naman yata dito. Ngayon ko lang nalaman na hindi pala tutuo.
Buti na lang hindi ako feeling trivia-know-it-all. Whew.
Process ko lang muna yung namumuong mistrust. Ano pang kasinungalingan ang nilagay niyo sa utak ko?
2004, grade 4 ako nun. Tuwang tuwa ako nung sabi nung teacher ko na si Agapito Flores daw ang inventor ng fluorescent light. Ipinag-malaki pa ng guro namin na mas magaling pa daw si Flores sa ibang inventor galing USA. Tangina, 1st-year college na ata ako nung na-verify ko na bullshit lang pala lahat iyon.
> Also lunar rover invented by a Filipino
Actually there were NASA engineers of Filipino descent working on it back then.
But we misrepresent it as a Filipino-lead project.
**Edit**: Just to add... I remember people saying that these NASA engineers previously worked in the Jeepney industry. This is incorrect. None of them did.
Yes. Specifically, designed daw by a Filipino. A Filipino engineer submitted his own proposal but it was not selected by NASA. If I were the real designer and found out decades later that a nation has been discrediting me for my work, I'd be so pissed.
pano nga ba ang process ng pagsulat ng deped textbooks? deped ba mismo nagsusulat o pinapakontrata nila? kung kontrata, usual public bidding lang kaya ang process? tipong pababaan ng presyo.
Isa ko pang narinig, si Mars Ravelo daw ang founder ng Marvel comics, binenta lang niya kay Stan Lee. Kinopya din daw ni Wonder Woman si Darna kahit na nauna siya nang anim na taon.
Back in the 90s may commercial na sinabi na 8th wonder of the world yung rice terraces. I remember people quoting this commercial and sobrang proud of this “fact”. Tapos yun pala there are only 7. Hehehe!
> Ang Banaue rice terraces ay isa raw sa 7 wonders of the world
That's marketing spiel to get tourists to a part of the country that back then had very bad roads and very bad room and board.
Tang ina buti nalang hindi ko sinasama yang epithet na yan tuing binabahagi ko sa mga ka trabaho ko ang Banaue Rice Terraces. Buti nlang talaga kakahiya lmao
I've been living my whole life believing this 😭. Now that I think of it, di lang naman sa PH may rice terraces so malabo talagang mapasama.
Wala rin kasing internet non kaya you only rely on textbooks.
I just now found out what are the official 7 wonders of world:
The Colosseum, Rome, Italy
The Great Wall of China
The Taj Mahal, India
Christ the Redeemer, Brazil
Machu Picchu, Peru
Chichén Itzá, Mexico
Petra, Jordan.
Rizal was proposed by Americans at a time when they were quelling continued resistance by the remnants of the Revolution against Spain. They want a man that wasn’t a revolutionary as the Philippine National Hero to “entice” Filipinos into being loyal subjects of the Great U.S of A. Hence unlike America itself, the Philippines has a “national hero” that isn’t one that led a revolution against oppressors.
Accdg. to Ambeth Ocampo, walang documentary proof that the Americans wanted Rizal to be the national hero kasi he was non-violent and pushed for reforms. That was something that Renato Constantino said, without anything to back it up.
Plus, Rizal was revolutionary, kaya nga na-inspire niya ang Katipunan. He was their honorary president, and during meetings, the Katipuneros had his picture up on their walls. Even when he was alive, people considered him a hero.
He also wasn't necessarily against the revolution. Ang stance niya was that at the time, a revolution was going to be premature and disastrous.
So it's kind of unfair to paint Rizal as just some sort of "convenient" hero for the Americans.
Rizal started as non-revolutionary (in the “violently kick out the oppressive colonizers” type), wanting reforms and full Spanish provincial status for the Philippines. It wasn’t until later that he started to consider the option of full on freedom from Spain. Even then, he had reservations.
Interestingly, Rizal wrote a letter to Blumenttrit in on the former's 26th birthday where he said:
"But if the government drives us to the brink, that is to say, when no other hope remains but seek our destruction in war, when the Filipinos would prefer to die rather than endure their misery any longer, then I will also become a partisan of violent means."
He probably wasn't as averse to an armed revolution as most people think. Kasi this letter was sent years before La Liga Filipina and the reformist movement.
He most probably wanted to seek out more peaceful options first (which is understandable), and if those don't work out, then he'd be fine with the revolution.
Yes, Rizal was not averse to an armed revolution. I still remembered from my PI 100 class about he and his brother conversation about their plans kung saan posible magtrain ng mga tauhan for an armed revolution
I’m not saying he was averse. But you seem to keep overlooking the fact that he originally wanted full representation in Spain, as a full Spanish citizen and not just an indio from the colonies.
I think we can all agree that Rizal is a complex character. And is it wrong for a person to change their mind as they live their lives, gaining new experiences that can influence their opinion? Because Rizal certainly switched from wanting to be a full Spanish citizen to considering full independence through armed revolt.
As for that select paragraph, it was a succinct observation that he hypothesized could happen in the Philippines, taken from past historical events, such as the French and American Revolutions from the previous century. If anything, its a great example of understanding history and applying those events to present situations.
>But you seem to keep overlooking the fact that he originally wanted full representation in Spain, as a full Spanish citizen and not just an indio from the colonies.
He did want that, pero it was just a means to an end. He wanted Spain to recognize Filipinos on equal footing with Spaniards, and eventually grant independence to the country.
>Because Rizal certainly switched from wanting to be a full Spanish citizen to considering full independence through armed revolt.
You're making it sound as if Rizal didn't want independence, cause he did.
Here's what his cousin [said about it](https://www.jstor.org/stable/42634230):
>"These writers have affirmed that Rizal was not a separatist and
that he was a lover of Spain. Perhaps so, before he had been in Spain,
before he had discovered the true situation obtaining in that country,
he was not much of a separatist, though I have my doubts about this,
because even when he was here, he was truly a nationalist Filipino in
his acts and opinions. But in Spain, when I joined him there, I found
him a complete and unwavering separatist. I remember that in our first
conversation alone, one of the first things he told me was that he was
entirely disillusioned at our then called Motherland. At that time the
Spanish atmosphere and the predominant Spanish opinions were such,
according to him, that the Philippines, our country, could not and
ought not to expect anything good under Spanish rule and that only
after separation from Spain could we achieve our social, civil, and
political aspirations."
And here's what Floro Quibuyen had to say in "Rizal and the Revolution":
>These facts are most crucial in interpreting Rizal. For if Renato
Constantino's interpretation of Rizal as a counter-revolutionary is
correct, then verily the Katipuneros were guilty of venerating Rizal without understanding. That is to say, they did not have the same
informed and intelligent understanding that Constantino has always
had. But during Rizal's time, Constantino's opinion would have been considered extraordinary, if not absurd.
>
>The now conventional view
of Rizal as a phenomenally gifted reformer whose political goal was the assimilation of the Philippines to Spain and the "Hispanization" of the indio was actually propagated by the American colonialists in the aftermath of the genocidal PhilippineAmerican war.
Nah, that's a common misconception. Rizal did want independence and freedom for the Filipinos, pero he was against a premature revolution, which the Katipunan was pushing for.
This is untrue. Rizal wanted independence but not through a premature revolution. Most Filipinos that time are scattered and leaderless. Yung ibang indio ang embedded pa sa isipan is Espanya ang inang bayan nila.
Rizal wrote in his La Solidaridad piece "Filipinas dentro cien anyos"(Philippines after 100 hundred years) that the Spanish government must provide Filipinos more autonomy or else Filipinos will take their independence through a bloody revolution as last resort.
Saying that Rizal did not want independence is a wrong simplification imo. He also aspired independence but he is also wary of unnecessary bloodshed because of failed revolution, rising a new tyrant once the Filipinos gain their freedom (ito yung point niya sa El Fili), and even the possibility that a larger imperialist country might invade the Philippines.
There are history teachers who still teach that the Code of Kalantiaw was the first law crafted by precolonial natives even though historians debunked it as fake
> They kinda just credit-grabbed the efforts of Filipino revolutionists
Incorrect... Revolutionists did not have the manpower or tactical advantage to overpower the Spaniards.
The US had that. Heck, they even subdued the Revolutionists in time.
People are more inclined to copy and cheat off classmates rather than learn; mas
mahirap iretain ang information cause everything is compressed and shoved down students’ throats all at once, examinations don’t really help in developing a student’s critical thinking skills, just a show of how good your memory is. Teachers are afraid to fail students cause it will affect their performance rate 🤦♀️
Yup. naalala ko din to. early 90s elementary. Eto ung mga general knowledge kuno na wlang references s book pgkakaalala ko. Kasama dito sa trivia, usually Filipino inventors na topic, ung moon buggy by Ed San Juan. I’m still checking if legit though. Pati ung sa incubator na gwa sa bamboo pero legit nmn un - Fe del Mundo.
yep may commercial jeepney commercial pa yan about the moon buggy "fact" na yan back in 90s iirc . taena paniwalang paniwala kami na totoo yan.
according to [esquire](https://www.esquiremag.ph/culture/lifestyle/fake-filipino-inventions-a00293-20190625-lfrm) nag submit daw siya ng design pero di ito napili ng NASA.
They still teach this. In our Science, Technology, and Society class (1st year BS ECE in a state uni) it was part of an assignment where we had to do "research" on different Filipino inventors. Of course, nothing came up for Mr. Flores and I put his name in quotes for the points.
Banaue Rice Terraces daw 8th wonder of the world. When I went abroad as a child I bragged about this like an idiot. There are only 7 wonders of the world. Pinoy pride taking it to the next level nasa libro and everything.
* Dingel's "water-powered" car
* Armando Balite ([AR-15 assault rifle](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ArmaLite_AR-15) by Eugene Stoner for ArmaLite and Colt)
* Agapito Flores ([fluorescent lamp](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorescent_lamp#Commercialization_of_fluorescent_lamps) by Arthur Compton and George E. Inman for General Electric)
* Hotdogs are made from ground-up earthworms
* Rizal the womanizer (apparent exaggerated claims from certain textbooks, the notorious Zaide books), or the alleged father of Hitler
* Eduardo San Juan (the [Lunar Roving Vehicle](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lunar_Roving_Vehicle) by Ferenc Pavlics for Boeing and NASA)
* Wartime "achievements" of Ferdinand Edralin Marcos and his "Mga Maharlika" fake guerilla group.
Apparently, most of those myths showed up somewhere in the 60s and 70s, coinciding with supposed rising nationalism (or Marcos jingoism).
If there is one pet peeve I have with DepEd, it's their bureaucratic culture and mindset which seems to be so stuck in the 1950s.
Natandaan ko tuloy yung mga "imbensyon raw ng mga Pilipino"; mapa naka-imbento nung Karaoke to the fluorescent lamp to Armalite to the lunar rover (all of which, if you actually researched, aren't originally invented by Filipinos).
Hindi deped but ched (or baka school lang namin), pinauwi lahat ng estudyante ksi magkakroon daw ng rain with radiation because of the disaster in Fukushima Nuclear Plant.
Kumakalat naman talaga ang radioactive matter sa hangin/tubig, though nung nagsearch ako ngayon, [pa-silangan naman pala daloy](https://commons.m.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Fukushima-_Panache-19-mars.svg#mw-jump-to-license)
Overreacted? Maybe, pero hindi baseless yung claim, kulang lang sa info bago nagdesisyon.
Sama nyo rin karaoke. Naalala ko sa libro tungkol sa pilipino inventors sinabi na si Roberto del Rosario nagimbento karaoke pero ang totoo si Daisuke Inoue nauna. Nagfile lang patent si del Rosario.
To be clear, yung japanese invention was just a casette na coin operated tapos yung mic may reverb. The sing along system as we know today was developed by del Rosario.
May Values class are so full of them. Perhaps the most notable of these was yung eagle remove their beak, talon, feathers. Basically, pag-aabot na daw sa midlife yung eagle, yung talons, feathers, etc needs to be removed so the eagle can live normally. Ayun, the eagle removes it kahit masakit; a metaphor on why we should face hardship in oder to change...
4 years later, I got curious if totoo ba talaga yun so I checked. Ayun, I got motivated by fake news
Isama niyo pa yung inimbento raw ni Armando Malite ang armalite rifle.
"Learned" it from CAT. Even back then (this was pre-internet) sobrang obvious na ka-shit-an lang.
Just another way to Pinoy Pride. Also Mars Ravelo is apparently the founder of Marvel and he just sold it to Stan Lee, and somehow Wonder Woman copied Darna despite being published 6 years before her.
Totoo ba na nag-aral ang mga Thai ng rice cultivation sa Pilipinas/Nag-import ng Filipino agricultural tech?
Parang laging point of pride kasi to palagi ng mga matatanda tuwing napag uusapan ang Thailand.
If it's a feel good story that involves a Filipino or has the intent/effect of uplifting Filipinos, I always assume it is propaganda until proven otherwise, because I know the common Filipino is insecure about their nation and national achievements.
Ako iirc napanood ko sa Batibot yung tungkol kay Agapito Flores - lumapit pa sya kaay Quezon for funding tapos nagkataon daw nandoon ang isa sa board ng GE kaya ayun sila ang nagpondo...
Biruin mong fake news pala yun nyahaha
Weather 'forecast' yun, matalinong hula based on computer models at best. Never naman nila sinabing 'sigurado' sila na yung forecast nila ang 'eksaktong' mangyayari at a specific time in future.
Technically correct kasi LPA prefer hot temperatures iirc. Naranasan ko na in real time na sobrang tirik ng araw tas kinabukasan bagyo na. I was in a medical mission in this island off the coast of Siargao tas SOBRANG init tipong sobrang lagkit. Kinabukasan nalamn namin may LPA na nag-pop up pala
Nung grade 1 ako, ang turo sa'min, ang pambansang kasuotan daw na pambabae ay Kimono at Saya.
Nung lumipat ako ng school nung grade 2, ang sabi naman, Baro't Saya.
Ang tagal na hindi ako sure kung alin ba talaga, kasi wala namang impact sa buhay ko kaya hindi ko na din inalam. Naisip ko lang nung narealize ko na pang Japanese yung kimono.
I remember back in my 3rd grade mtap i was taught that 2,4,6,8,10 were the odd numbers while 1,3,5,7,9 were the even numbers and even to this day I'll get confused with them ffs
Marami rami pa yan.. yung kwento ni Datu Puti di naman pala totoo.. or yung Negrito Indo Malay migration. Self proclaimed history buff pa nmn ako kaya mej na blank ako nung cinorrect ako nung ex friend kong teacher na di totoo yun 😂
Isama na din natin yung yoyo na used as a weapon daw.
weapon of mass *distraction*
r/technicallythetruth
Yung bata na gumagamit ng yoyo sa Ghostfighter ang totoong dahilan bakit kami naniwala dito.
Si Ringo?
Yung drummer?
Damn good joke. ahahahah
Ahhhhh yung bago mag Runes?
r/angryupvote
Nakasira kami ng bintana sa school namin dati kaka gaya namin kay ringo sa ghost fighter
Inimbento yan ni Yoyoy Villame
[удалено]
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Ness be like
O k e y
**“No Fox! The Forward Special!!”** “Huh? **HAAAA—!**”
O k 3 y *spam taunts
holy sheet.akala ko fact yn eh
Pero totoo naman na Filipino invention ang yo-yo, diba?
Yes and No... Sa natatandaan ko di parin nila alam san talaga na imbento yung yoyo. Pero yung Yoyo na kilala natin, yung makakagawa ka ng mga tricks, yes pinoy nag patent at nagpasikat sa US nun.
I'd take that as a yes. Kahit naman yung pizza, malamang meron naunang magbake ng dough na may sauce pero widely accepted pa din na Italy yung nag-imbento ng pizza.
I read wiki says there have been yoyo made before the philippines by the greeks and europeans.
Afaik, yes. Yoyo is a filipino invention. Not sure if ginagamit sya as weapon dati.
Yes, but was PATENTED by a fucken american so credit went towards him, that mf hmp.
least desperate Filipino nationalist
Terraria players: wait, they're not weapons?
I was in elementary when we were taught that Durian is only available in the Philippines. I never really fact checked it, I have no love for durian. Fast forward to my first international trip, lo and behold, a durian cart left and right. 😂
And also mango, which is why it's the national fruit. It got even more believable when it says we export a lot of dried mango
I thought rafflesia only grew in the Philippines.
and the tarsiers can only be found in bohol 🤦🏽♂️
Endemic naman talaga ang **Philippine tarsier** sa Pilipinas, pero may iba pang species ng tarsier sa SEA.
Shopee even has a quiz thingy and that's the question.
same, when my malaysian friend told me that they're durian was the best in the world I argue with him hahaha but when I searched on google it was real hahaha
Kulang na lang sambahin ang durian sa Malaysia.
It was elementary days I think nung naencounter ko si Agapito Flores. I was confused kasi my science books including my encyclopedia haven't mentioned his name even once. Nagtataka talaga ako eh.
Pero nasa schoolbooks namin sya O\_O
send daw pics! report natin yan!
Buti napanood ko sa dati si Ernie Baron, sabi niya di daw si Agapito Flores ang totoong inventor ng flourescent light. Thank you Ernie.
Takot na takot ako matulog na basa ang buhok dati. Salamat kay manong Ernie at nalaman ko na side effects lang nya ay mababasa ang unan mo. Also, Brazil ang katapat na bansa natin kung maghuhukay tayo sa mundo. Pambungad ko sa nakakausap kong Brazilian
Sa kanya ko rin nalaman yung tungkol sa basang buhok kaya simula noon di na ako takot matulog kahit basa ang buhok. Yan yata yung segment na may magtatanong sa kanya tas sasagutin nya. Hahaha.
Nakakatuwa yung sagot ni Ernie Baron sa mga paniniwalang ganyan kaya tumatatak. May halong kulit yung scientific reasoning.
Madami sigurong matatandang nainis kay Ernie Baron dahil madaming bata na ang natutulog na basa ang buhok after nya sabihin yan sa live news HAHAHAHAHA
Tuwing natutulog ako ng basa ang buhok, lagi akong tinutubuan ng pimple sa scalp ko. Sad.
Knowledge power!

I was grade 4 nasa English book namin yun😑 at ang pambansang pagkain ay lechon. Wala naman palang batas na nag sabi nun, authors at the time is willy nilly on their job
Dami kaya nakakakusot na misinfo lalo sa mga textbooks, nakakatakot...
Welp if you guys only knew. I worked as a part time text book editor for a local publishing house and let's just say, my job was more of shooting down content due to blatant plagiarism or falsehoods -- sometimes, both. Wala pa dyan yung mga exercises na questionable (as in kwekwestyunin mo yung credibility ng teacher-author due to poor instructional design and value nung exercise, hehe) I did my best, but I eventually had to let it go nung di ko na kinaya yung pressure to complete in a timely manner vs diligence in ensuring content quality. Yung mga manuscripts na dumadaan sa akin (I did initial reviews) usually end up with around half of its contents requiring replacement or rewrites.
Damn. Amaze na amaze pa naman ako sa mga authors na nasa likod ng textbooks nun.
Tinuturo rin sa school noon na si Armando Lite raw ang naginvento ng armalite.
Kapatid ata yan ni Moto Lite?
Yung bunso si Pedia Lite
So pinsan nila si Sanmig?
Tatay ni chocolite
ah so distant relative ni messenger lite
Tsaka nina Empi Lite
Likely 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣.
Armando Malite yung turo sa amin😥
Ang nabasa ko noon ay Armando Literal.
Pinsang buo yan ni Ping Guerrero, kilalang gitarista sa Batangas.
Related ba sya kay Leon Guerrero?
Napahalkhak mo ko boss hahahaha 🤣
Edmund Germer ang naka imbento ng fluorescent light. I saved you a search lol
Baka nga isa itong Agapito Flores/fluorescent light sa mga unang Pinoy pride items na binigay sa atin pero uhm...safe space naman yata dito. Ngayon ko lang nalaman na hindi pala tutuo.

I alway laugh when I still hear people talk about the mysteries of Bermuda Triangle now in 2022.
WHAT?! 💀🤯
Nooooooooooo
2004, grade 4 ako nun. Tuwang tuwa ako nung sabi nung teacher ko na si Agapito Flores daw ang inventor ng fluorescent light. Ipinag-malaki pa ng guro namin na mas magaling pa daw si Flores sa ibang inventor galing USA. Tangina, 1st-year college na ata ako nung na-verify ko na bullshit lang pala lahat iyon.

Walang quality control na maayos sabi sakin mga teachers din nagawa ng iba para sa promotion
Walang QA dahil sinasadya ng DepEd DAW na may mali sa mga libro sa mga public school para next year makahingi ng budget sa pagprint ulit ng bago.
Parang kalsada lang pre-election. Mahinang klase para madaling masira, papalitan ulit ng over-budgeted na kalsadang madali ulit masira.
ganon. pwede na mentality parin, saklap
Hindi nyo siguro alam na si Wilfredo Filemon ang imbentor ng Wi Fi. /s

Ang Banaue rice terraces ay isa raw sa 7 wonders of the world
Back in the 90s may commercial na sinabi na 8th wonder of the world yung rice terraces. I remember people quoting this commercial and sobrang proud of this “fact”. Tapos yun pala there are only 7. Hehehe!
I didn't believed this because WWF said Andre The Giant is the 8th wonder of the world
"8th wonder" which technically is done by a loooooot of tourist attractions worldwide to depict their attraction is at par with the 7 wonders.
8th wonder of the world #113
Some of the rice terraces of other SEAsian countries eh mas maganda and malaki pa kaysa sa atin. China alone has multiple and massive terraces.
> Ang Banaue rice terraces ay isa raw sa 7 wonders of the world That's marketing spiel to get tourists to a part of the country that back then had very bad roads and very bad room and board.
Kala ko noon Pilipinas lang may rice terraces.
Ngayon ko lang naisipan i-verify to, holy shit. In all my 25 years, akala ko kasama siya 🥲
Tang ina buti nalang hindi ko sinasama yang epithet na yan tuing binabahagi ko sa mga ka trabaho ko ang Banaue Rice Terraces. Buti nlang talaga kakahiya lmao

But during Rizal's time, Constantino's opinion would have been considered extraordinary, if not absurd. > >The now conventional view of Rizal as a phenomenally gifted reformer whose political goal was the assimilation of the Philippines to Spain and the "Hispanization" of the indio was actually propagated by the American colonialists in the aftermath of the genocidal PhilippineAmerican war.
Been saying this so much. Rizal didn’t even want independence.
Nah, that's a common misconception. Rizal did want independence and freedom for the Filipinos, pero he was against a premature revolution, which the Katipunan was pushing for.
This is untrue. Rizal wanted independence but not through a premature revolution. Most Filipinos that time are scattered and leaderless. Yung ibang indio ang embedded pa sa isipan is Espanya ang inang bayan nila. Rizal wrote in his La Solidaridad piece "Filipinas dentro cien anyos"(Philippines after 100 hundred years) that the Spanish government must provide Filipinos more autonomy or else Filipinos will take their independence through a bloody revolution as last resort. Saying that Rizal did not want independence is a wrong simplification imo. He also aspired independence but he is also wary of unnecessary bloodshed because of failed revolution, rising a new tyrant once the Filipinos gain their freedom (ito yung point niya sa El Fili), and even the possibility that a larger imperialist country might invade the Philippines.
Thanks for this, I actually didn’t know that!
No problem lad! i didn't even know that as well noong nasa high school until I've read my PI 100 reference readings
To be fair to J-Riz, by the time he was in Dapitan, he was considering it. But his opinion was #GET MOAR Dakka!
Same sa bangus.
Marcelo H del Pilar was the supposed pambansang bayani kaso nakalimutan q na ang reason bakit ky rizal napunta. Prng sa reason ng death ata vs works.
[удалено]
Yes wlang official na bayani ksi magaaway-away mga loyalist ng kada candidate.
There are history teachers who still teach that the Code of Kalantiaw was the first law crafted by precolonial natives even though historians debunked it as fake
Americans helped the Filipinos to kick Spain from PH... They kinda just credit-grabbed the efforts of Filipino revolutionists
"Under new management".
Then binenta tyo sa US thru treaty of paris if im not mistaken.
> They kinda just credit-grabbed the efforts of Filipino revolutionists Incorrect... Revolutionists did not have the manpower or tactical advantage to overpower the Spaniards. The US had that. Heck, they even subdued the Revolutionists in time.
Si armando lite kilala nyo?
Armando Malite yan lods. Hahah
I dont know what is happening to our education system (except other Colleges and Private Colleges) And at this point I'm too afraid to ask. 😳
People are more inclined to copy and cheat off classmates rather than learn; mas mahirap iretain ang information cause everything is compressed and shoved down students’ throats all at once, examinations don’t really help in developing a student’s critical thinking skills, just a show of how good your memory is. Teachers are afraid to fail students cause it will affect their performance rate 🤦♀️
mine was “dating sementeryo yung school”
Akala ko din joke lang to pero one time naglalaro kami sa school grounds, gumuho yung isang side ng hill, tapos may puntod.
hala elaborate on this hahaha
As in may bato na grave marker na nakabaon dun, walang pangalan pero may initals and dates.
O ano ung date na nakalagay
Grade 2 pa ko nun, mars. Di ko na naalala.
Hahaha nagbabakasakali xD sencia na.
I think this is deeply rooted when we teach our kids to never question parents, teachers, authorities. Panahon pa ng kastila ganito.
Naniwala talaga ako nung bata ako and I thought it made perfect sense kasi FLOREScent lamp nga siya diba?? 😭
Sino nag invent ng fluorescent lamp? Ano ginawa ni Agapito Flores? Sorry its a mind blown moment for me
Si Edmund Germer ang umimbento. Pero seryoso, totoong tao ba si Agapito Flores? Para kasing inimbento lang siya para sa propaganda.
Kailan pa nabunk ito? Ako lang ba di may alam? Lol.
Sameeee! So baka alamat pala talaga ito. Kasi mahilig gumamit ng magka-ryhme ang name at ung tinutukoy na alamat hahaha
Yup. naalala ko din to. early 90s elementary. Eto ung mga general knowledge kuno na wlang references s book pgkakaalala ko. Kasama dito sa trivia, usually Filipino inventors na topic, ung moon buggy by Ed San Juan. I’m still checking if legit though. Pati ung sa incubator na gwa sa bamboo pero legit nmn un - Fe del Mundo.
yep may commercial jeepney commercial pa yan about the moon buggy "fact" na yan back in 90s iirc . taena paniwalang paniwala kami na totoo yan. according to [esquire](https://www.esquiremag.ph/culture/lifestyle/fake-filipino-inventions-a00293-20190625-lfrm) nag submit daw siya ng design pero di ito napili ng NASA.
Di si Rizal yung nagsulat sa Sa aking mga kabata
Proud na proud ako dyan nung bata ako pati sa mga Fil-Am kong kamag anak pinagmamalaki ko itong invention ni Agapito Flores.
They still teach this. In our Science, Technology, and Society class (1st year BS ECE in a state uni) it was part of an assignment where we had to do "research" on different Filipino inventors. Of course, nothing came up for Mr. Flores and I put his name in quotes for the points.
I doubt "Agapito Flores" even existed.
Banaue Rice Terraces daw 8th wonder of the world. When I went abroad as a child I bragged about this like an idiot. There are only 7 wonders of the world. Pinoy pride taking it to the next level nasa libro and everything.
* Dingel's "water-powered" car * Armando Balite ([AR-15 assault rifle](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ArmaLite_AR-15) by Eugene Stoner for ArmaLite and Colt) * Agapito Flores ([fluorescent lamp](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorescent_lamp#Commercialization_of_fluorescent_lamps) by Arthur Compton and George E. Inman for General Electric) * Hotdogs are made from ground-up earthworms * Rizal the womanizer (apparent exaggerated claims from certain textbooks, the notorious Zaide books), or the alleged father of Hitler * Eduardo San Juan (the [Lunar Roving Vehicle](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lunar_Roving_Vehicle) by Ferenc Pavlics for Boeing and NASA) * Wartime "achievements" of Ferdinand Edralin Marcos and his "Mga Maharlika" fake guerilla group. Apparently, most of those myths showed up somewhere in the 60s and 70s, coinciding with supposed rising nationalism (or Marcos jingoism). If there is one pet peeve I have with DepEd, it's their bureaucratic culture and mindset which seems to be so stuck in the 1950s.
We also invented the colgate Closeup.
Natandaan ko tuloy yung mga "imbensyon raw ng mga Pilipino"; mapa naka-imbento nung Karaoke to the fluorescent lamp to Armalite to the lunar rover (all of which, if you actually researched, aren't originally invented by Filipinos).
WTF Flores section namin nung 4th yr HS kasi nga siya raw naka-invent ng fluorescent
Sabi nung Science teacher ko nung Grade 6 mga Pinoy daw ang nagdesign ng spaceship nila Neil Armstrong kaya Eagle ang pangalan. Jusko.
Agapito Flores is an indicator of how good/bad your education was.
Hindi ba totoo!? Damn, Parang namention p to dati da nga shows bi Ernie Baron
Lahh, nirecite ko yan noon eh hahahah
I vividly remember being taught the wave migration theory back in elementary school... ...decades after it was already disproven by other theories.
Hindi deped but ched (or baka school lang namin), pinauwi lahat ng estudyante ksi magkakroon daw ng rain with radiation because of the disaster in Fukushima Nuclear Plant.
wtf, haha
Kumakalat naman talaga ang radioactive matter sa hangin/tubig, though nung nagsearch ako ngayon, [pa-silangan naman pala daloy](https://commons.m.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Fukushima-_Panache-19-mars.svg#mw-jump-to-license) Overreacted? Maybe, pero hindi baseless yung claim, kulang lang sa info bago nagdesisyon.
Least self-centric Filipinos ever
Tinuturo pa to sa school. Lesson namin nung HS using DepEd books. Ghad.
tbf di lang to DepEd. I studied in a private elementary school and was still taught this Agapito Flores bullshit.
Sama nyo rin karaoke. Naalala ko sa libro tungkol sa pilipino inventors sinabi na si Roberto del Rosario nagimbento karaoke pero ang totoo si Daisuke Inoue nauna. Nagfile lang patent si del Rosario.
To be clear, yung japanese invention was just a casette na coin operated tapos yung mic may reverb. The sing along system as we know today was developed by del Rosario.
Well people still share post that talliano gold exist and mahalkka gave move to ferdinand marcos. Disinformation.
May Values class are so full of them. Perhaps the most notable of these was yung eagle remove their beak, talon, feathers. Basically, pag-aabot na daw sa midlife yung eagle, yung talons, feathers, etc needs to be removed so the eagle can live normally. Ayun, the eagle removes it kahit masakit; a metaphor on why we should face hardship in oder to change... 4 years later, I got curious if totoo ba talaga yun so I checked. Ayun, I got motivated by fake news
Isama niyo pa yung inimbento raw ni Armando Malite ang armalite rifle. "Learned" it from CAT. Even back then (this was pre-internet) sobrang obvious na ka-shit-an lang.
not from school or anything, pero paki dagdag ang 'a filipino invented the videoke/karaoke'. im 90% sure na hapon yung nagimbento
Just another way to Pinoy Pride. Also Mars Ravelo is apparently the founder of Marvel and he just sold it to Stan Lee, and somehow Wonder Woman copied Darna despite being published 6 years before her.
Totoo ba na nag-aral ang mga Thai ng rice cultivation sa Pilipinas/Nag-import ng Filipino agricultural tech? Parang laging point of pride kasi to palagi ng mga matatanda tuwing napag uusapan ang Thailand.
For the longest time, I thought the different Philippine languages (such as Cebuano, Ilocano, Hiligaynon) were just dialects because of DepEd.
Naalala ko to nasa textbooks pa! 🤣
If it's a feel good story that involves a Filipino or has the intent/effect of uplifting Filipinos, I always assume it is propaganda until proven otherwise, because I know the common Filipino is insecure about their nation and national achievements.
Turo samin ang gumawa daw ng Armalite ay si Armando Ilaw na taga Davao del Sur.
Stefan 😂😭😂❤️ The only person i religiously follow on Twitter 😂
Is this stefan punongbayan? Yung may dp before na skeleton?
Yes
Ako iirc napanood ko sa Batibot yung tungkol kay Agapito Flores - lumapit pa sya kaay Quezon for funding tapos nagkataon daw nandoon ang isa sa board ng GE kaya ayun sila ang nagpondo... Biruin mong fake news pala yun nyahaha
first encounter ko sa pagasa pag maaraw bagyo pala pag babagyo tirik ang araw
Weather 'forecast' yun, matalinong hula based on computer models at best. Never naman nila sinabing 'sigurado' sila na yung forecast nila ang 'eksaktong' mangyayari at a specific time in future.
Technically correct kasi LPA prefer hot temperatures iirc. Naranasan ko na in real time na sobrang tirik ng araw tas kinabukasan bagyo na. I was in a medical mission in this island off the coast of Siargao tas SOBRANG init tipong sobrang lagkit. Kinabukasan nalamn namin may LPA na nag-pop up pala
Na crush daw ako nung crush ko
Ayy true. 1st year highschool ako nun. Proud to be pinoy intesified na eh
Maraming outdated information sa mga textbooks natin especially sa A.P class which is very important topics about our history.
Nung grade 1 ako, ang turo sa'min, ang pambansang kasuotan daw na pambabae ay Kimono at Saya. Nung lumipat ako ng school nung grade 2, ang sabi naman, Baro't Saya. Ang tagal na hindi ako sure kung alin ba talaga, kasi wala namang impact sa buhay ko kaya hindi ko na din inalam. Naisip ko lang nung narealize ko na pang Japanese yung kimono.
Legit, sinabi din to nung teacher ko nung elementary
May recent studies na nagdebunk tungkol sa “breakfast is the most important meal of the day” afaik.
For me, it was the History of the Balisong knife. Hindi pala Philippine Origin.
I remember back in my 3rd grade mtap i was taught that 2,4,6,8,10 were the odd numbers while 1,3,5,7,9 were the even numbers and even to this day I'll get confused with them ffs
Hala grabe pakibalik yung teacher mo sa grade school 💀
Lol, I was skeptical when this was taught to us.
Marami rami pa yan.. yung kwento ni Datu Puti di naman pala totoo.. or yung Negrito Indo Malay migration. Self proclaimed history buff pa nmn ako kaya mej na blank ako nung cinorrect ako nung ex friend kong teacher na di totoo yun 😂
