I’m sure you’ve read my other long comment. My point was that it seems very difficult to solve since it is partly a cultural issue as well (competition and hard working)

Extremely racist.
Honestly just stay the fuck away from Anglo and western communities (I’m assuming you’re from the East because of your username), don’t try to be “accepted” by these vile demons like minorities in the West do. It’s a total waste of time, and not worth your self respect and dignity to try to
