Are there people here who have worked and lived in a developed country for such a long time that you have trouble adjusting to Filipino culture and life again.

Also I saw your comment - https://www.reddit.com/r/Philippines/comments/7axu9u/are_there_people_here_who_have_worked_and_lived/dpeudre/

Which to me shows that you already have some set beliefs.

In the end it's better to go with it because you're not fighting just an ideology but human nature.

It's human nature to want to defend your family, but thanks to the system in place in certain countries, you can't just kill the person who killed your family. The ideology here is that the land is governed by rational law and need for order.

It's human nature to defend the virtue of your sister, and in some systems it's OK to kill her. This happens under certain ideologies. But, thanks to the work of some people in the past, you can't kill your sister if she broke her virtue before marriage.

Positive racism works for me as well, rarely does the police or security act suspicious towards me in the Philippines, some people ask to take pictures with me (if I'm well dressed) despite the fact that I'm a nobody.

The way you dress (the brands you wear) has nothing to do with race. For all I know, you could be dressed in fake designer clothes, or work on a posh accent using YouTube. All of these have nothing to do with race by the way. You are simply taking advantage of certain stereotypes and using a simple one to try to prove your point that you are trying to make about positive discrimination working for you based on clothing.
