nobody___100 [#3]someone’s gonna be racist in this thread
And it's gonna be me
In my humble opinion the reason is,
4rrowlol [#7]Asian Americans tend to be of more wealth than most other ethnicities in the US and can therefore afford the equipment (good pc, mouse, etc) to perform at their highest capability. Also esports is more socially acceptable and taken more seriously in the sphere than maybe in other cultures idk
not true 😭

Bro he makes so much money fucking streaming it’s not just competing it’s crazy how fast their tune changes once their teenage kids start bringing in cash thru competing and streaming before they’re even old enough to graduate college
as someone from china and large asian friendgroup i find its always the boba loving keshi music producer asians with perms and not the computer science usaco usapho aime asians with spikey hair and glasses. but honestly they dont even make up a large part of the asian community maybe the subgroup youre looking at has some selection bias or something
Selex [#16]It is true. 2 seconds on google will tell you that.
not sure which part ur referring to but from personal experience
Also esports is more socially acceptable and taken more seriously in the sphere than maybe in other cultures idk
this is not true :v

I can confirm, unless you're REALLY good they look down on it

this is not true :v
there’s like 2 distinct types of asians in the US, those with first-gen parents that are studious and stress academics or there are the asian parents thay have like ABG/B offspring and focus more on sports than studies etc

Relative to other cultures it absolutely is bro 😭

do the math
2k subs (a lot) = 60k a year + some from eg and sponsorships, probably 200k a year
now if you go to a top uni for cs and make into big tech for something like ai/ml
ik people making upwards of 5 mil/year

it doesn’t matter the money, my brother works as a cs major focused in graphics at one of if not the largest companies/video game companies in the US and is still looked down upon by the family as he is seen as creating videogames that harm children

Bro said this like 200k isn't insane bread.
ilovefrozenblueberries [#26]depends highly on a persons COL
I mean in Canada it's almost 4x the average wage.

Yea I think that’s more of a family pride problem than a culture problem
4rrowlol [#28]Yea I think that’s more of a family pride problem than a culture problem
it’s definitely a cultural view
4rrowlol [#22]Relative to other cultures it absolutely is bro 😭
It's not. Gaming is still looked down upon by the millennials who are parents now, even more among people who are older.

The first part. The second portion, being more culturally acceptable, might be true but not sure about that. It definitely is at least partially true for Asian Americans of Korean descent.

It's still not true my guy lmfao. How are you talking as if you have some definite stats to prove all of us wrong but you don't. It's so obvious you didn't grow in a common Asian household or were probably an outlier. Go to any Asian community in any social media and ask them what their parents feel about gaming.
Just from Reddit alone there's like a thousand threads if you search up "asian parents gaming" and most of them are about how their parents are not letting them play games. The main reason why most Asians love gaming is exactly because they are not allowed to enjoy it normally thanks to their parents. The more you tell them not to do something, the more of it they will do. It's definitely not because of "omg we support your career no matter what, go do esports!" lmfaooo. Bro really said "supportive" and "asian parents" in one sentence. Erasing our history of getting beaten up.

bro are you even fucking American 😭😭😭😭 idk why ur so mad maybe don’t listen to internet rage stories and talk to people outside? my parents don’t even like video games but they’re still fine with me playing them, same with most other Asian Americans I know. The hard on games stance from parents has been shrinking more and more in America and Asian Americans especially as more millennials become parents and esports/streaming influence continues to grow

When the fuck did I say supportive???? All I said was more accepted relative to other ethnicities in America, ur just putting words on my mouth to fit ur narrative lmfao and ur assuming shit about my life because of an online opinion go fuck yourself

Your individual sample size is more important than the sample size we can see with our eyes? What a fucking clown. Keep waffling buddy. Bro publicly admits that he gets coddled and thinks he's the example lmfaooo

arin2016 [#39]Dude gets defensive and upset after realizing he can't relate with other Asians kkkkkkk
nah second gen asian children are def more accepting of gaming than first gen asian children , especially if both parents were born and raised in NA
arin2016 [#39]Dude gets defensive and upset after realizing he can't relate with other Asians kkkkkkk
It’s pretty obvious that you don’t talk to people and don’t go outside. Your parents aren’t against u playing video games they’re against you being a shut in that only plays video games lmao ur corny as fuck nobody else has gotten this mad until you

As a computer science asian, I disagree. I play valorant every week and post on this brainrotten forum occasionally.

Yes bro I’m really coddled because my parents don’t beat me for playing video games I’m sorry I have a life and don’t spend my days shut in my room doing fuck all but getting mad at fake Reddit stories and online opinions on vlr.gg
Like bro having parental trauma doesn’t give u an excuse to be a pathetic piece of shit lmao

ur an actual idiot, you combine on average asian americans having more money as well as the popularity of gaming in todays society as well as the competitive drive of many asian americans and children of first-generation immigrants 100% results in a higher demographic of asian americans

Ah, the classic "I'm not mad, it's you!" I am the top 5 highest my whole school. I have a bright career ahead. Unlike you who's probably going to spend his parent's money trying to become an eSports pro or a Shanks v2 but 10x less funny.
It's as Kendrick said, "they not like us" you're not like us buddy. You got an easy life boy
ilovefrozenblueberries [#29]it’s definitely a cultural view
Culture 110% does have an effect but they also got a serious power trip problem on top of that, if someone is happy, stable, and successful and they still find a way to be disappointed because they think video games harms children they’re really out of touch I feel for ur brother man hope he’s doing well

And none of them stats prove that Asian households are more accepting of eSports as a career. You're saying that since most AAPI household have higher income, they let their kids do whatever? lmao found another one

Who is us bro? U realize nobody is taking ur side. Ur continuously playing the victim card and using ur own experience + fucking Reddit stories to try and invalidate my opinions 💀💀💀💀. You haven’t even responded to a single point and just resorted to calling me spoiled and coddled because my parents aren’t fucking retards lmfao

So you admit that you are coddled. Every Asian has shared parental trauma and has been beaten up by their parents. Good job outing yourself spoiled boy. You lost your Asian card. Giving a bad rep to the AAPI what a shame tsk tsk

Because most AAPIs have money their children have more fucking opportunities to pursue their dreams, yk the whole idea of the “American Dream”? holy shit I’ve seen doorknobs with more reading comprehension than you

Zero respects for your parents. Calling them derogatory terms. Wow you really showed the person you are. You're parents didn't spoil you so much so you can go around calling your parents that. Valorant has rotted your brain.
ilovefrozenblueberries [#50]my brother doesnt enjoy his work at all 😭😭😭
Oh shit 😭 it sounded like he was doing well for himself my fault for assuming hope he finds his passion

And AAPIs don't want their children to follow their dreams literally everyone knows that. Bro literally forgot about the whole "respectful career" debate.

Top 5 among the whole year is only "semi-decent" to you? Cope harder bum. We know you sucked at school. Good job announcing it to the whole world.

The only explanation other than rage bait is he’s not American and has a different culture in Japan or wherever in Asia he’s from, which in this case nothing he’s said applies because he knows fuck all about current Asian American culture

if u want to talk about academics then unluckily for you i go to a top college in the US. And yes top 5 is semi decent as top 1 would be because of grade inflation I like everyone else had a 4.0

If the top college isn't MIT, Yale or Harvard (willius mentioned) then it doesn't matter. Unlucky buddy. You don't have to be jealous of my distinguished accolades.

nah i fully believe it’s rage bait or someone that just wants to flex their academics or something or find a justification for the trauma that their parents put them through

when i say a top college i mean it :)
ilovefrozenblueberries [#74]when i say a top college i mean it :)
So not MIT, Yale or Harvard (willius mentioned)? Yeah it's over buddy. Whatever top college you are in, I can easily get into with my accolades because it's not one of the top 3. Again man, you don;t have to be jealous of my accolades. It happens, not everyone has a good school life. At least you got a second chance and you're wasting it by being consumed by envy and jealousy.

did i not just say it is one of those 3. 💀💀💀 come join me on campus lil bro
ilovefrozenblueberries [#76]did i not just say it is one of those 3. 💀💀💀 come join me on campus lil bro
No you didn't say that. You're being ambiguous on purpose because you're probably lying. You probably go to a local community college. This is not a good look buddy...

wow i wonder why i wouldnt want to reveal where i go to someone anonymous online. anyways if you get into one of them dm me and if i go to the same as you we can meetup
ilovefrozenblueberries [#79]wow i wonder why i wouldnt want to reveal where i go to someone anonymous online. anyways if you get into one of them dm me and if i go to the same as you we can meetup
So you're lying. Great. Like I said man, you don't have to be jealous. And those top 3 are too low for my standards so I'll never get into any of them. Tsinghua University is where I will go and seeing your flag, you should've aimed for that too but they don't accept underachievers so tough luck buddy.

And good luck in your endeavors too. Envy is good but too much envy that turns into jealousy is not. I'm flattered that you think highly of my accolades to the point of jealousy but it's self-harming. Hopefully you get out of community college and land a half-decent job 👍🏻
