Thanks for sharing. I’m also Asian so hearing your story is therapeutic in a way of simply not feeling alone. But immigrating to the US is a huge trauma and I pray for the downfall of this empire because it’s already the pits for the majority of us.
Thank you for engaging! I have lately been having better experiences slightly north of the border from the US. I don't know if I would feel comfortable with things sliding into total anarchy, but I also hope that there's a major correction in the markets (financial warfare is totally fair play and white collar in today's america).
Hey, thank you for your vulnerability and sharing this to the world. I know that at some points things are going to get worse somehow, at least when it comes to your channel getting haters or spammers but I want to let you know that your perspective help me a lot. I'm not here for an opression olympic or anything, but as an Asian queer person who studying in the US (as an first gen), I also feels a lot of pressure of making some kind of legacy for my family. And we agure alot but at some point I realised that it doesn't make senses-ish. Not that one should not try to improve oneself or one's family but in the end of the day, chance are, you might caught a bunch of genetic disease/condition with deoritating health when you get older or even right now, and you only have yourself to rely on, atleast, financially. I'm taking care of my parents right now but there is a limit to my capacity and if I going to get terribly sick then I should just taking care of myself first. Filial Piety is nice but it was created to justify the ruling clasd of confucian ideology and no matter how much of you try to provide to your parents, you cannot control their lifes nor vice versa. Peace
Hey! Thanks so much for watching my video and also for sharing! Yeah I wish youtube had a way of marking this content as more sensitive and if this channel does ever get more popular I will have to put content behind some kind of membership gate. I'm sorry to hear about the health problems in your family. I relate to what you said a lot and understand what you're going through. A darker feeling I had at the time is this sense of losing time to keep your parents alive, and an intense sense of resentment. When my mom was sick, she felt entitled to care because she'd brought me up, basically seeing me as an insurance policy. I don't think kids should be treated as old life insurance by the old as a condition of being in a family, and I feel that family (domestic/clan) slavery is one of the oldest and least recognized forms of modern bondage. It of course goes both ways and the old can also be abused by the young but abuse can happen to all people in society and often in hard to recognize ways.
