I suppose Asian person turns out to be massive racist shouldn't come as to much of a shock,
but it's still pretty disappointing.
I realise not all Asians are racists, but after living in Asia for a decade, I would say the vast majority are.

I will add to your sweeping generalisation by adding my own anecdote. The most openly racist man I ever met was Indian...he didn't have a good word to say about any fellow Asian.

Very much so.
In India predjudice about skin darkness Is apparently common as is the use of skin lighteners.

You know how rabid Scots Nationalists hate English people
even though we're all basically the same fucking nation and have been for centuries?
It's merely a case of picking an arbitrary level in the hierarchy of groups-that-people belong to and being a dick to them. Some people in Cornwall hate people from Devon, when to my mind it's all the fucking west country.
