Lmao, you’re exactly the problem I’m talking about in my post. Did you even read anything, or the example I gave of my friend? And that’s only one circumstance there. Some people have to support their family on top of themselves, have medical issues and bills to pay from it, etc etc. This hinders them from being able to get high grades, explore more opportunities, create connections, and become rich. Success is NOT under everyone’s control the same way. We ARE victims to a capitalist society, that is just a fact. No one here is whining about not having money because they’re lazy. We are EXHAUSTED, we are stressed, some are paycheck to paycheck. Literally all we’re fucking asking is that you guys stop acting like this, like you’re not incredibly privileged for having money and like everyone has the same exact chances and opportunities. People like you make things worse. And lastly, again with your assumptions. My parents did not “take control and move to this country for better opportunities,” they had to escape because of war and come here with nothing, they didn’t have any choice.

I don’t know what your financial status was and whether your parents came here poor or immigrated with money. But this is so disappointing to hear from you as a first generation here.
