egot is slang for igorot the term used to describe the collective indigenous people's of the mountanous cordillera region. It is derogatory because just as latinos/hispanics use the term indio to describe a very dark individual, it includes the connotation that indigenous/ darker/ non-european features are ugly and inferior.
