Alright I've been thinking about this all day.

I think there's an argument for an element of othering when it comes to Chang. He's creepy, weird and slimy. But I think if anything, it's othering of mentally unhealthy people, not Asians. Chang isn't creepy because he's Asian, he's creepy because he has no self-awareness. He's creepy because he's willing to climb through vents in his underwear to fight a monkey, which is really not an Asian stereotype. So, I don't know, if you're saying he's dehumanized to a degree, I agree with that, and it's more than anyone else in the cast gets, even more than the Dean. He is like a cartoon character kind of shoved in a cast of real people. But . . yeah none of his otherness comes from being Asian, imo.

IDK, I guess the way they portray him reminds me of how other Asians have been portrayed by the American media, whether it's an "official" Asian stereotype or not. Sixteen Candles or American Pie for a couple.
