Immigrants leave their friends, families, cultures, past lives...everything familiar to come to a country, usually with nothing in their pocket, so they can succeed. Sorry if those pesky Asians didn't prioritize building bridges with some weird underachieving, multi-generational American furry that would rather make 100,000 posts a year about how crackers are the cause of her getting a $7.25/hr job at a Walgreens than do anything at all to improve her life. They probably have other things on their mind. So "problematic" that they're thinking about succeeding.
Intersectionality should just be understood as a mom putting her hand on her child's shoulder and saying, "You see how that person turned out? Do you want to turn out like them? Then go study."
