I find it weird that you've singled out Asia and Africa. Yes, it's true that, say in Japan, white people experience discrimination there, but they don't experience because they're white specifically, but because they're foreigners. And most of the white people living there are living there by choice.
I think a good example of a white population experiencing racial discrimination are the Romani population in Europe.

Seriously, white people don't HAVE to go live in Asia or Africa. Go back to Europe.

"Seriously, brown people don't HAVE to go live in Europe. Go back to Pakistan."

Do you not realize how dumb you sound.

I thought it was satire, tbh.

Maybe, but Poe's Law and all that.

I didn't add them because according to certain types of tumblr people, Rromani people aren't "really white" because white people can't be discriminated against therefor anyone that's "white" but is discriminated against isn't "really white".

"And most of the white people living there are living there by choice."

This is such a fucking weird statement. Don't most immigrants wherever technically have some "choice" in where they go? And even if you chose to, say, accept a job in a foreign country, does that mean you can't complain when you're treated poorly because of your race?

And with Japan, no, it is NOT only the fact that white people are "foreign". Yes, white people almost definitely have it better than any other race in Japan, but there are negative stereotypes associated with white people, even making fun of physical racial characteristics. When you can walk into the Japanese equivalent of Wal-mart and buy a "white person" costume that consists of a giant fake nose and a blonde wig, it's not the fact that you're foreign that is the butt of the joke here.

Shit, any foreigner will experience discrimination in Japan. I know a girl who was born in Japan but her parents are Korean, and she still had to carry her passport around to prove that she belonged there.

Koreans get it especially bad over there.
