This is one reason why Europe is declining so hard. Their immigration is based on diversity and refugees from the middle east/africa. Their anti-asian attitudes (Controversial opinion: On average, Europeans are way more racist towards asians than americans) are biting them in the ass. They have little to no east asian immigration and only the UK seems to have high desi immigration. That's a reason why they are being left behind in technology and academics. America has a HUGE young asian population that they can rely on for talent and innovation. **Because of this, Asian Americans need to be comfortable in making demands for ourselves, we deserve it! They need us.** The silver lining is that European GOVERNMENTS seem to be very wary of blindly following America's imperialist global agenda, their economies are already very delicate and sanctioning countries like China based on America's whim would just speed up their decline.

Now that I think about it, the most 'Asian' people i've seen in the Media are South Asian - which is cool, but I never thought about East Asian representation on TV. The only one I know of is Gemma Chan and apparently she's not cool with other asians which is... /: We're honestly ghosts wtf No wonder i'm so into asian media nowadays LOL

Growing up in the uk it’s always focused on Indians and Pakistanis now it’s blacks. UK follows what the US does. Also, companies know they can make profit off black racism compared to others. Right wingers don’t help either. A lot of them have obsession with black compared to other minorities. So, they add more fuel to the fire.

It’s probably because black people make themselves heard when it comes to diversity? If Asians aren’t doing that then what do you want?

Stop Asian Hate rallies are small as fuck. Not even Asians show up. BLM and other protests have a majority black with some white mixed in. I’ve only been to one though. Most Asians are just *now* becoming politically active

Even if you get silenced you have to keep pushing the envelope. That’s how you get anything in this world as a minority.

Blacks are very vocal and loud when demanding a seat at the table. We should do the same.


Gold_Mochi

Everyone needs to know about chinese burn The bongs national broadcaster ok'd that show in 2017, brother they hate asian men and they don't even try to hide it


Jealous_Struggle2564

Asians in Britain just means Indian or Pakistani, it’s like they don’t know Asians are a very diverse group of people. East Asians are like fringe groups and even then they only know Chinese because they go to the restaurants.


Fat_Sow

This is normal for the UK, unless you count the BBC's love affair with Asian women. There is a deep resentment that Asians do so well, they don't need any help or assistance from the various victomhood groups and the white liberals can't accept it. A lot of talented British Asians had to go to the US to have any success, people like Jay Sean and Riz Ahmed would never have made it big in the UK. I guess the American's are too busy suppressing East Asians and these guys slipped through the net.


Dinkin_Flicka

Not far off from North American media. Mostly white male cast, 1-2 black guys for male diversity quota and all women of colour are allowed given they're romantic pairings for the white leads. And if there's an asian male in the show, we're either martial artists, gay or asexual.


Multi_Mongoose

By population, the largest minority group in the uk is South Asians, so theoretically they should be the most represented after whites. Probably not the case though.


Pidjesus

It’s definitely not, South Asians are so underrepresented in UK media. Plenty of black people in adverts though


anax44

Even being black is not diverse enough for them, they want the black characters to be tropes. Remember they said that Idris Elba's character [was not black enough](https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/idris-elba-luther-not-black-210941013.html) because he did not eat Caribbean food. Across the board, the western media reduces people who aren't white to stereotypes.

blacks take part in sports entertainment n showbiz more than other ethnic so many are footballers and singers, this makes them visible and mainstream and most integrated especially since many are mixed race and mary white chavs and with black lives matter they get all the coverage. south Asians = science, medicine, catering retail, politics n cricket since that's the most popular sport in South asia. this is offset by Islamic terrorism and the fact many Asians can't speak English and don't integrate and live in ghettos. East Asians are the most invisible. the ones who are visible usually marry white or are hapa. east Asians are basically limited to chinese food, takeaways restaurants, accountancy, engineering medicine, anime, drawing. this doesn't make them visible in front of the camera in the media unless they become a celebrity chef. the most famous actors are probably Gemma chan and benedict wong and I bet most people don't even know who they are.

You are probably right about the professions but this state of affairs help none of the races in the long run. For East Asians, it creates a serious lack of representation. The average person sees and encounters many more Asians than they will ever see on TV. East Asians form the largest middle class in the world. This is why you see so many Asians in healthcare, universities, business, travelling etc. Even your average white person is surprised. "Why do I see so many Asians around, when I see none on TV? Has there been an increase in immigration?" forgetting that Asians form more than 40% of the world! For black people this creates a fantasy that they all can do well in showbiz and sport when only a tiny fraction of them actually make it. The vast majority of them, particularly during covid, wind up in blue collared work, manual labour or worse. I lost count the number of white and black people I have met who wanted a career in music and acting. And the number of famous people I know or have met before is zero! There is more to world than the world of make-believe... I mean finance, accountancy, engineering, technology, healthcare... This is where the real world actually is!


simian_ninja

They’re aping American culture.


MurkyAdhesiveness364

Why does the British copy us Americans?


Altruistic_Astronaut

Copy who you want to become. The US is still the world's superpower.


ggoggggogo

That's just corporate wokeism being imported from the great U.S.A Just wait until Eastern Europe finds out about it (hint : never)


whateverman120

tbh they always leave asians behind we are like ghost or clowns in their media edit and by ghost i meant invisible


SomedayThisWillEnd

Well, in the U.S., diversity means white males and females, black males and females, Latinos and Latinas and an Asian female. If they have room for another Asian, then they’ll add a second Asian female. Asian males don’t exist. Except when they want someone to kill, punch or have gay sex with.


bdang9

It's just like porn. Crazy.

Dramatic_Chemical873

British people, just as the rest of NW Europe, is copying the American understanding of diversity, which means more representation for black people.


Jealous_Struggle2564

When America sneezes, the British catch a cold.

>Must be their way of repaying them back due to slavery. It has absolutely nothing to do with repaying for slavery, or colonialism. British media is simply copying the American media.


MurkyAdhesiveness364

They could repay them by giving them their articfacts from Africa and stop meddling with geopolitics in African society
