They are just being obtuse. Everyone knows when you talk about an Asian, you aren't talking about some Arabian, Israeli, Indian, Russians, or whatever. Just like when you say someone is American, they are from the United States of America. Yeah, there's Canada, Mexico, all the places in South America, etc. Someone from Brazil is Brazilian, someone from the USA is American.
EU governments use "asian" as a way to hide criminal identities and obfuscate crime stats, to make it harder for White people to identify who is hurting us. The U.S. government does the same thing by grouping Hispanic people in with "White" in crime stats.
Hispanic is as worthless a descriptive term as Asian is, in the context mentioned in this thread. Hispanics can be of German, Italian, Portuguese or Spanish descent from countries like Chile or Argentina, as white as snowflakes. Or, can be the Indians of the area, the tribal Mongoloids/ "Asians" who wandered around before the coming of Europeans. Or, they can be the mixed super dark Africans that plague places like Brazil.
The most modern genetic clustering research seems to break out australoids (Australian aborigines and Papua New Guineans) into their own group as well as whatever you call the group of native Americans/first nations/etc.
But interestingly, sub Saharan Africans are more distinct from all other human populations than all of the other populations are from each other.

Out of curiosity, would you happen to know the genetic distance of Neanderthals and Denisovans? Why did they get the separate species treatment?
