You know, that might be racism too.

If we delve into "Asians", that includes people from South Asia who look significantly different and tend to be darker. It also includes people, for example, from India that not only have a different skin tone but look completely different from let's say your average Japanese or Korean person. There's a very obvious obsession with seeming more fair-skinned in most of North Asia, as it equates whiteness with beauty.

Not to mention, you can look more or less the same and still have racism within the same race. I think Jewish people among white people are a good indicator of that. If we look at Japan's history in WWII, they convinced themselves that they were a people descended from a sun god, while Chinese and Koreans and Filipinos (and others)--who are racially almost identical--were subhumans who they could rape and murder en masse without moral compunctions.
