Hilariously if you go to the source pdf report they list off the most common description of Asians:
51% intelligent
32% hard working
21% kind
15% awesome
9% motivated
8% ambitious
8% family oriented
And conclusion is "Asian Americans continue to be seen as a “model minority”, which can be harmful to our progress". They're upset that less than 8% of people had anything bad to say about U.S. Asians.
It's a play to get sympathy for being discriminated-against non-white people, but even including Indians and Pakis it's complicated by the fact that it's clearly blacks who are discriminating against Asians:
U.S. Chinese may be a threat? 40% blacks, 20% whites. Asians may get security clearance? 73% blacks, 89% whites. More scrutiny for U.S. Asians? 45% blacks, 27% whites.
In all of the data blacks had the worst view of Asians and whites had the best view, and then there's "where do Asians feel most unsafe?" 29% public transport, highest answer by far - gee which racial group is attacking people on subways /hmm that's a tough one.
