diasporoid 

A member of a religious, ethnic, racial, or national group that has migrated to a different country, usually the West, or a child of immigrants. They proceed to sellout their cultural and religious values, are mentally colonized by the host culture, and back project their new values on their original homeland. Often touted by white liberals as token minorities. Not all immigrants are diasporoids, only the obnoxious ones.
I’m tired of these brown diasporoids completely selling out and espousing ideals completely antithetical to the people they claim to represent.
