So how many of our Asian friends...

... truthfully find Bucky's term of "South Asia" derogatory and offensive??

Only the Indians do because the others are inferior to them

So it's unanimous then, except for Buck's vote?

I'm going out for some South Asian food.

Enjoy, but don't go getting all superior on us, please.

That's why I didn't say 'Indian'.

Regionist.

I was thinking on this latest fracas overnight, skulls, and have decided that whilst you are not racist, you are exceptionally stupidist.

Aye, I am very allergic to stoopid people. But it's good for the post count. JD will be grinning, sort of.

Not many votes Bucks, and you "most offensive" thread suggestion was a complete dud, much like your logic.

For some strange reason for USA, South Asia really means India and Pakistan and a nuclear flashpoint. China is considered something of a separate entity. These US politicians.....

when questioned about terrorism, Pakistani politicians always make it a point to name drop 'South Asia' at least once.

when that country is again questioned on Afghanistan, the pakistani politicians will name drop 'South Asia' as a troubled region. When they are the ones who are stirring all the trouble.

Again a few US experts like Stephen Cohen will name drop 'South Asia' as a nookular hotspot when it is just a single country that is busy hotting its spot.

thought the above are now old hat and everyone sees through the media psy-ops pretty well, but they are now maligned terms used by Western and Pakistani media mostly to malign or drag India's name into their agenda.

Lastly strictly technically 'South Asia' is an amorphous region from Afghanistan to Canton, China. India, Bangladesh, Myanmar, Thailand, Vietnam, Malaysia, Southern China are all South Asia.

I reiterate Bucks, you were the first forummer to use the term. If you don't want a term used on this forum, then be a nice chap and have the brains not to put that term in writing.

You do realise how silly you look in introducing the term then bleating for 24 hours about other posters using exactly the same term?

You are such a crazy boy.
