how much of the "wild west", train lines, towns, cultural hotspots and more were built by asians and then whitewashed into being a frontier "conquered" by "mostly white cowboys".

Accurate. I’ve got news for them: America is made up of immigrants. These “true Americans” of all people should know that.

I wonder which is worse. The WASPs who think a few extra generations between them and their immigrant ancestors makes them special, or the children of immigrants who immediately turn around and say that immigrants are ruining the country.
