Yeah, it wasn’t a thing until just lately.
Now we have Asian American Pacific Islander as a contraction for a new group of people that are somehow poorly served by the Country…..
I would bet that it had never been widely used in Mainstream Media until just a week or so ago. Probably didn’t exist for long, until the group became a useful tool for the Democrats.
I wonder if the Pacific Islanders and the “Asian Americans” (hint: the Japanese dislike the Chinese, who look down on the Koreans and the Viernamese and who think the Indonesians are cattle) appreciate all being lumped into one group?
I suppose to the Democrats they are all the same, but they aren’t.
Oh, and don’t forget to add that they are now ‘white adjacent’ for purposes…
