Buddha was Indian but there are images of him as East Asian.
I can laugh because it was funny joke & I can disagree. I am capable of having 2 different ideas in my head. At least he started a dialogue.
Asians Unite!!!
They can pick many lanes.
But he does have point. If he showed up in a Bollywood movie. Indians would react “What the hell he is doing there?”
We need to stop the East Asian vs South Asian hate! We both came from the same continent. It’s just perspective.

I can be Indian & Asian & American & Desi. If you can support the idea that there are more than 2 genders. We can be multi-racial backed up by facts.
Black people can be African-American & a person of color. And White people can be Caucasian-American & a person of whiteness.
That joke from Ronny was really funny. It was funny because he was saying something that you shouldn’t say. But some of us were thinking about it. I can laugh & respect him as a comedian & disagree.
My counterargument would be: Don’t tell me to pick a Lane!

Depicting Obama as African Muslim. It was in perspective of white Racists seeing Obama that way. That cover caused controversy as well. And the New Yorker said it was satire.

That joke from Trevor of the Prime minister changing his accent was from the perspective of how white Britsh racists think & mocking them for thinking that. You can make the same joke with Obama. Actually the New Yorker magazine cover did the same joke.

As an Indian-American I understand the anger & frustration of @ronnychieng & @Trevornoah comments about Indians. But these guys are comedians.
