I grew up in Texas where I was in the same exact situation as yourself and had the same exact negative stereotypes placed on me as yourself. Secondly your a cocky jerk who goes off insulting my family when you don't even know us. Yes the fact is most family do go through shit its completely normal for there to be issues in the family. I am not denying that. However it is petty to just use the excuse all your shit in life by using the race card. Lets be real here. My Mom does not talk shit about Asian people and had people be racist towards her mostly by Caucasian people. I know I'm privileged and sometimes I sometimes feel guilty. I am lucky I don't have the same kind of racial issues I had in Texas where people would constantly bombard me about my race. So its not as if I am naive to racism out there and looking back I can see how some people who pretty subtly racist as well. You need to stop playing the victim card. I think I have been much more forth coming and honest than most of the users on this sub. I am very proud of my parents humble origins from my Mom who grew up in poverty in Gwangju(lived through the 5/22 Massacre https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gwangju_Uprising), and my Dad who grew up in a small town in Kansas but went to West Point, attended Ranger School, and went to Yale for business school. So yes my parents had humble origins but I look up at my parents for overcoming great odds. Perhaps I will not be some outliar and I have a complex that I want to meet those expectations. If my parents were able to overcome such obstacles and provide for the privileged upper middle class lifestyle I have then why can't I if I work my butt off? You once again are a privileged guy and I admit I am too but I do recognize the sacrifices my parents have made to make it top this point. Stop making assumptions about me and trying to shit my character. My Mom is a tough person and so am I. Since your the person who started this game of "oppression game" I would respectfully tell you to mind your own business and never post about me or my family again.
