>Do what your parents say and work hard to get yourself into a good school.
Where'd I ever mention I was still in HS / a minor?
I'm a rising senior in college now. I still live with my parents in a suburban house for the summer, but likely also for the semester since my school is close enough to commute.
I've lived off campus last year and loved it, but my parents forced me to get off the lease I originally had for this year since it was an attic room that though spacious, wasn't a legal bedroom (but the landlord didn't give a fuck at all).
They were up in arms about how "anon the lease says xyz". The lease also says not to party or drink, but people literally do it anyway. And they were bitching so hard about how "in American you must follow the law".
Think the worst part about this might be that I'm a CS bro who shouldn't even be having any of these financial issues since I'm in tech and a major metro area. Like I've had anons tell me to plan a move to a major metro area as if I don't already live and study in one. Yet I'm broke af since jeets took all the internships.
I just feel completely humiliated. Parents are acting all smug like "you'll thank us for this one day!", and think I'm an ungrateful shithead. This has gotten pretty intense, with screaming matches etc.

See my point? I'm ashamed my country's authoritarian. Sure it might've been "great" or "innovative" or whatever, but they've done stuff like killing people for writing down emperors' names, multiple ideological pogroms, female footbinding, and castration. And then when the Communists took over the whole country basically turned into an Orwellian dictatorship that I'd struggle to defend even on my most tankie of days.

It's not over by any long shot BTW. Recently they forced me to break a lease for this coming senior year because they found out living in an attic was technically not legal even though we're all broke college students and no one - even the landlord - gives a shit.
My parents FREAKED THE HELL OUT and refused to pay for it, which led to a multi-day argument. "OMG what if there's a fire?" And when I bravely volunteered to work a menial job this summer (and beyond) to rack up some of my own money so that I could pay for it myself, they even threatened to withdraw money from my bank account.
Had to apologize profusely to the dudes I was gonna room with and even they were like WTF. Ended up finding a replacement in time, which made me relieved, since I did NOT want to get involved in some shitty lawsuit my mom was forcing me into, and screw everyone over. (Even a LAWYER we consulted told mom to let her son screw around.)

I stand out among the Americans for being collectivized, as opposed to being individualized.
I stand out among the Asians for being a B-class autist who can't succeed in this fucked up world, as opposed to being on my way to riches, med school, and/or the next scientific breakthrough.
I stand out among the Americans for being Chinese. I stand out among the Chinese for being American.
It's like I was fucking born to be fucked up / problematic.
(If I were woke, this would be the part where I bitch about "intersectionality", but wokism is literally neo-colonialism masquerading as tolerance, and there's just something about their explanation that doesn't seem quite right.)

Am I a retarded cuck who isn't ready to live on my own? Should I just suck it up and be grateful for the free ride? Or did my parents fuck my life over?
