Just because a minority is represented doesn't mean it's good representation. Not having any Asians on your show is just as bad as having an Asian who wears thick glasses, talks in an incomprehensible accent, runs a laundromat, drives horribly, and constantly corrects everyone else while essentially bullying their child into Harvard.

MTE, but seeking out things to be pissed off about is a different matter. Say an Asian character does none of those things and the fandom obsessively fixates on that one single time he helped a kid with maths homework as making everything about him a horrible racist stereotype that ruins the whole show forever?

This. Or, similar to the OPs example: An man that's racially Asian, but he's a Truck driver from Texas with a Texan accent.

They've erased his PoCness! He's just a white man with an Asian wrapper! Yes this was a real thing.

Just... Fuck. I mean seriously.
