Those Asian orgs don't even create any buzz though. I read mma sites and barely see any talk of their events or even rising Asian stars. Not fair to compare them to Pride since it was the biggest organization in the world during its time, but it had stars that even American fans knew about. It sucks to see fighters that were some of the biggest stars in their day (yamamoto, gomi) get washed by unknown ufc fighters.

Exactly. There are none.
India is considered Asian, yes.
Although Asia itself doesn't really exist. That's for another thread though.
I'll give you Jeong but I don't think Huang is really a household name. Then again, neither of them probably are.
Interesting you mention this. Black and Asian solidarity was common up until recently. Check it out:

Ken Jeong has become a stereotype himself
People see him more as Leslie Chow than a doctor or a teacher from community

Hold up hold up.
I don't think it's just NT.
Not to derail but I try to be careful using certain words on NT because I know how people react but I mean Mexicans not all Latinos.
WHAAAAT!?
Really?
So ya'll rep by the continent not country, I'm confused.
Canadians are from North America but they still Canadians.
So Indians consider themselves Asian?

I don't understand what you're saying. Indian people are from Asia, so they are Asian, just like Chinese, Japanese, etc. people are. No one from Asia introduces themselves as "I'm Asian" but they all fall under the same broad category, except for Russians who are obviously Europeans that happen to be in Asia. Again I don't understand why general Americans find this to be a difficult concept when the entire world understands it, and in fact the American government and every questionnaire I'ven filled out does too. On every form I've filled out, there is a box that says "Asian (Vietnamese, Chinese, Asian Indian,etc)" Indians look different but the culture and values are for the most part very typical of Asian countries

Are we not supposed to identify where people are from by continent anymore?

Chinese, Korean, Vietnamese, Japanese, Indians, anyone from the Asian continent is considered Asian.
South African, Ethiopian, Somalian, Egyptian, anyone from the African continent is considered African.
Different cultures, but from the same continent that's all it is.
Problem is that people group different cultures as being the same, when it's really not.
The census is just a product of that.

I think more descriptive terms would be southeast Asian to refer to Chinese Japanese etc and south Asian to refer to Indian, Pakistan etc would be more appropriate

Most of Fox News' viewers are ignorant whites. Many of them are blatant bigots and racist. They eat this kind of stuff up.

I know that. If most people can't even tell the different Asian backgrounds, it will breed into what we just saw Fox News did in stereotyping.So all Asians look Chinese right?

At least KingKoopa is more progressive in what he sees as the main image of Asians.
Far too often I hear Asians being compared to a Leslie Chow or an Asian nerd.

One of my favorite chicks I just found out is a conservative. And Chinese coincidentally. I found out cuz they had fox news on. My bay area liberalness would've gave a **** in the past. But the older I get thew more I realize they are ALL full of ****. Liberals included. Case by case.

And Iike KingKoopa, I wouldn't have a bad image of whatever race they seem to represent.
My questions were not to talk down on him, it's rather to get a different perspective on what he sees as the average Asian.
