I thought the asian characters were streretyoped as the techincal nerds?
Good point, but that’s if there’s no black characters.
Whites + asian dude = asian guy will be jotting down calculus for fun, while all the girls laugh at and deride him.
Add a black guy into the mix, and the asian bro is permitted to be a “real person” —maybe he snowboards or something a bit brainless. And then the black guy is...a nuclear scientist, or a bioPhysicist, or something.
