I have no idea where you're working at but if you've ever looked at Google's public diversity report (one of the largest companies in the valley), you'd see that your Silicon Valley career does not reflect what the majority of people in this very large company experience. https://diversity.google/annual-report/ https://diversity.google/annual-report/

By this report Google is 56.6% white. My experience is that white male Americans are roughly 25% of the Silicon Valley workforce, but if you bundle in white immigrants and women you might reach 40-50%. As I remember the TV show, the main characters are 80% white, and the Indian guy is the whitest one I've seen. Small sample, I know, and I'm not offended. Just a little bored...

      So a guy who was born and raised in Pakistan and has a Pakistani accent is culturally white? What exactly does that mean? Does it mean that he’s educated and wealthy?

        I think he means, that guy is more culturally white than the Indians who he finds in the SV.
