 The newly crowned Miss Universe is Filipino American however some other contestants are saying that she won due to favoritism from the Asian sponsor. Yeah this is going viral not really amongst 30 or 20 year olds Andrew but amongst the older generation that's like man I can't stand to see another American institution get corrupted by foreign interest so we gotta break down the incident and get us some larger takeaways make sure you like subscribe turn your notifications Andrew let's just get into the beef of it Andrew what is going on on Miss Universe because like I guess some of the white contestants from Miss USA were basically saying our Bonnie Gabriel who's Filipino American her dad's Filipino her mom's white basically cheated her way to the top yeah I mean there's like this whole little uh TikTok investigation that's going on from Heather Lee O'Keeffe Miss Montana who's actually not from Montana she's from Florida by the way um but yeah anyways I think that I guess it raises questions and a lot of people are kind of saying things like everything from oh well all pageants are rigged anyways to well that kind of makes sense there's always been reasons why people won in the background that we never knew about and I guess we're just starting to see it with Asian faces now so people are extra mad yeah I feel like she's playing dumb because previous years they always had people influencing to various levels which way the winner was gonna lean this is capitalism this is not like a real meritocracy thing if even people accuse the Olympics of cheating Andrew why wouldn't there be cheating in something as trivial and non-consequential as beauty pageants guys you can you can some I mean some people have accused boxers of cheating and boxing matches of being rigged so if you can rig sports you can definitely rig beauty and I can see why she said to be fair and by the way I'm supporting our Bonnie Gabriel I think she could have won regardless I think she was the most well smoking she designed her own dresses the other contestants can't do that however I will say this of course the owner right now that just bought Miss Universe is a Thai lady and then the also the sponsor was Asian too so she didn't mention that though she didn't mention the Asian aspect but I know that she wanted to and so did all the other contestants wanting to say like man these Asians cheated they had it all they ran it up but you know what it is and the whole idea of Asians cheating it just goes along with the narrative that they want to see it but I actually think that if our Bonnie was didn't play up her Filipino side as much like what if her mom was Filipino and dad was why she didn't rep that as hard I feel like they wouldn't even care as much no there's some aspects of that and the fact that she won for Miss USA and not Miss Philippines right I would accept it if she won for Miss Philippines but now I gotta have a nepotism Asian this associated she's saying she's so USA but how come she got connections to Asia but listen guys Priyanka Chopra won in the year 2000 guess who the major sponsor was that year Andrew Z TV that's the biggest TV station in India Venezuela used to win apparently there was a lot of sponsorship money in the 90s from Venezuela so this whole thing Andrew has always been heavily money influenced for a very long time by the way I don't really know like the reality of the truth I don't know anything about pageants and the mechanisms behind it but basically I think it's interesting that they feel so open publicly criticizing the Asian winner just like Carmelo felt so openly open about criticizing Jay Lin's first contract in Houston so how come there's been corruption throughout pageant history but people feel so comfortable launching these internet investigation movements against the Asians yeah yeah yeah I mean I think that's you guys let us know in the comments down below what you think about that yeah I think that you know a lot of people are just gonna have to deal with Asian faces representing a country that was not previously viewed as Asian right for example there's a disproportionate amount of Asian-American athletes in the winter Olympics Andrew the math competitions for the last 20 years wait wait wait wait wait how come Heather O'Keefe's not coming out talking about the math team the American Matthew why why is there so many Asian nepotism yeah for the math yeah they're cheating the Asians are cheating their way into the the the math leads yeah why don't you complain about that well you know what it brings us to our last point and my point is that in a way to the old people who are complaining you could see it this way like look at how great of a country America is this is the true land of opportunity that a Filipino immigrant can move to America marry a white woman and produce a kid who wins miss USA and then miss universe it's great this is this is why you built America this is why everybody wants to come to America this is why you tout America on your chest be like America America is the best country ever look at us look at what people can do in this country you can work your way up to doing anything and it's kind of true right but that's just your perspective because you're a minority I unlocked it when the people were immigrating over running shops doing services being post office workers infrastructure people but not miss USA man I even heard people in the comments be like man why she got to call herself Filipino American what what's wrong with just being American she's American she's representing American you know and I'm just like well yeah I mean I think these are all conversations that the older generation is going to be having with themselves or with other people because to be honest I can empathize with them to the level that if they've been watching the miss universe and miss USA pageant for 30 straight years that they have seen some changes now a Thai trans business woman now owns miss universe I can see that as a jarring image in your mind right take me now I can't take the changes it's been such a push and pull strike me down hey man this is the globalized economy this is capitalism you guys built this don't build this a lot of the major soccer teams are owned by Arab money in Europe right and now of course Ronaldo is going to play for Saudi Arabia I mean there's a lot of Chinese companies that own like AMC for example like I don't know I guess Andrew is it do you empathize or you just like saying it is what it is right yeah I wish that there was like some panel discussion or some type of like roundtable discussion you could have with old people you know like these old grumpy people who are mad and I get it they saw the world change extremely quickly before their eyes and maybe they feel like it doesn't fully benefit why do I have to watch squid game it's not a calamari game it's just like we don't even eat squid how come when I when I turn on Netflix there's all these Korean shows man I mean they're quite well made you know I admit they're pretty good and some of the actor of her I mean Bong Joon-ho can sure tell a story yeah but but it's not it's not what I wanted to see listen I wish that there was more conversations about this I really think so right and hopefully you said there should be a program to ease people who have been consuming content throughout the 50s 60s 70s into the 80s to prepare them for like 2023 and beyond okay here's the pitch guys to those rich foreign money or the rich Asian money right uh let's put a little money aside to start a little youtube channel or a network that's about explaining and having these talks with the older generation because there is totally a generational shift so maybe there needs to be something done about that and I don't know if they're going to watch this video but hopefully if you are hopefully you're hearing what we're saying yeah and by the way I'm not saying that everybody who didn't like this situation or supported Miss Montana's campaign against Miss Texas is racist or anything like that I could totally see them just being like I just don't like that being wide as feels outlawed yeah yeah I can see it I can see it you know listen guys but the changes are here how are we going to deal with them let us know what you think of this whole incident in the comment section below plus the larger implications and takeaways until next time we the hot pot boys we out peace
