Jana the only desi (indigenous) people in the US are the Native Americans aka Red Indians, don't you think?

They are not "desi" as in South Asians. They are called "Indians" because the Spanish thought they landed in India and the Indies. And called them Indians.

She didnt mean Native Americans...

any desi be it from India or Pakistan and BD is not a native American so either you have allegiance to your own native country or to your adopted one in yours and many of ours cases its the former .

so saying We Americans do this and that by a desi is strange

Idk, but I am just going to be the one that's going have my children here, and their children here, and so on and so further. So I see no reason why its strange.

A South Asian would only be desi in South Asia! And the américains de souche (don't know how to say that in English) desi in the Americas.

No, I think Desi was popularized by South Asians that dont live in S. Asia..

I'm not sure what you are trying to prove with those links. they clearly speak of written formats..

Did they go to school or otherwise happen to learn logic or language? That's a nonsensical term. But I agree a short and apolitical one.

Personal anecdote: once at a Gulf airport a presumably Nepalese gentleman said to me "ah I dind't realize you were desi", to which I replied "that's becuse I am not" since I wasn't Arabic. Poor guy had a puzzled look come across his face and he went away. But I swear I wasn't indigenous/native/watani/desi to the Gulf

He just means, your South Asian. Not indigenous to that region. Your getting the terminology wrong.

I was trying to prove that it is not necessary that journalist is always a person who 'writes' articles.
