This reminded me of the time I was at school and heard some kids talking about my friend and they said “(Name) is Asian right?” “No bro he’s Indian not Asian.”
Mind u my friend is Filipino😭 so not only were they wrong about his ethnicity but also just stupid😭
yeah, there's also a while profile named "community notes violations". its the absolute content seeing how some people get basically annihilated for their stupidity
so, a couple things. the indian subcontinent is not the same as india, the country. the only difference between the indian subcontinent and south asia is the inclusion of afghanistan in the latter. south asians have always considered ourselves to be part of the continent we are from
I agree but they've also gotten pretty bad. On a contentious post from a right wing account it has to be a definite non political fact to get the note to stick. Otherwise all the sycophants just down vote it and it never shows up.
I blame Columbus, who made things all confusing by calling native Americans Indians. Maybe people think she’s part American Indian, making the Asian bit confusing?
Thats true. I was just clarifying for the person i was replying to that not all of russia is in asia so not all russians are asian. Thats the extent of my knowledge & i think breaking down what every russian considers themself is a bit overkill for their question
It's gotten so bad, the fact that posts worthy of an IQ of 3 have an obvious note just makes one want to chug a twelve pack of Drano. At this low level, it's not even an own, it's just... sad.

I'm amazed they're still there because they constantly roast elon and his favorite guys, I know he's had some removed but damn
I feel like they could be useful here but it'd be like wikipedia battles

though some define "asia" as everything east of the danube so Ukraine would be in asia by that definition.

I can't see pending notes on twitter because I refuse to give them a phone number.
