Asian Americans

There’s a subset of Asian Americans who I swear have something against their immigrant predecessors. I kinda get it because I sensed some of that repulsion against my own Chinese family myself when I was a teenager living in America. In high school, I was made fun of a lot for being an immigrant by the Americanized Asians. It’s just an interesting phenomenon. There’s something about westernizing an Asian that makes you sort of turn on your ancestry and anyone associated with it.

Because of this, I felt like I was unfairly bullied in my youth–sort of like my friends and my bullies are one-and-the-same because I guess Asians don’t really get egregiously offensive (i.e. violent) with each other. At the end of the day, Asians I think tend to stick together in this necessary, I-love-you-but-hate-you-at-the-same-time kind of way. Let’s be honest, Asians tend to be quite studious and many are pretty darn smart. The competition is fierce.
