>>98768101I'm an australian born half flip with both parents being australian citizens at birth.
Maybe I can speak for the flips as I've been a few times and actually lived there for about a year.
Flips ride the coattails of america since they basically worship General McArthur because of how he liberated the phillipines from the japanese.
It's a monkey see, monkey do type thing.
If they see americans do shit, they'll dial it up even more.
Now with social media, they've got american mannerisms on tap.
There used to be a filter of american bad behavior that was the non widespread internet use and the catholic church to sieve out unwanted american bullshit, but now, it's a complete overdose.
