She never said that to me. I was speaking in a more general context bc a lot of Filipino moms say this to their kids

Yeah, my Lola was the one telling me that I had to not get dark and use papaya soap so my skin could lighten up. That’s colonialism for you.
-
Also, this is no slight on my Lola - I just wanted to point out that the effects of colonialism and beauty standards are often conflated.

Her mom didn’t actually say that. Most ppl won’t even watch the video before they draw a conclusion based off this tweet

-
Even when you watch the video, that isn't clear. She later had to clarify that she was generalizing.
-
Unfortunately I don’t control the way my words are edited
-
I wasn't putting it on you. It's just the way it played out. There was a misunderstanding, you clarified. That's it.
-
No, I get it! My mom is reading all the comments and feels really bad at the assumptions being made, so that's why I wanted to clarify.
