Napahamak ang Miss Philippines-Earth 2016 na si Imelda Bautista Schweighart dahil sa kanyang Facebook Live video kung saan tinanong niya ang Miss Earth Austria 2016 na si Kimberly Budinsky kung galing si Adolf Hitler sa Austria.
“Okay, that’s a bad question because we normally don’t really talk about Hitler, but yes he is,” sagot ni Kimberly.
“Oh my God, our President is doing Hitler stuff here in the Philippines,” say ni Imelda which caught the collective ire of netizen kaya naman nag-apologize siya.
“Because all my life I was always teased by fellow Filipinos as ‘Hitler’ because they are not well-informed that Hitler was not German. In fact, Hitler was Austrian. So when I saw my fellow delegate, I made a soft joke about it out of my excitement,” ani Imelda.
“I am an extremist so forgive me my fellow Filipinos and Duterte supporters if you didn’t understand how I am. I got that idea wherein i said, ‘Duterte is doing Hitler stuff’ from online news, newspapers with headlines saying he is Hitler-like but for the good.
“I was just not able to explain what I really meant further in Facebook live because my mind was occupied with the other delegates i want to capture on my Facebook Live cover.”
