They used to call people WE call Asians “Orientals”.
People there know they aren’t talking about Japanese people, because their are few Japanese, Chinese, Koreans that live in Britain.
People in the U.S. dont readily include Mexicans as “North Americans”, and we use “Africans for people that live in Libya or Zimbabwe even though they are vastly different people.
Just people looking to be offended by cultural linguistics.
because their are few Japanese, Chinese, Koreans that live in Britain. ...................................... Because they were never colonized, except for Hong Kong drug trade?
