Is it just me or every positive stereotype of X minority is just fearmongering in disguise

Now that I think about xenophobia and racist stereotypes, I think I can see why even positive stereotypes are bad.
the way i see it all stereotypes which are imposed on a people are negative, the only potentially good stereotypes are ones the a people themselves chose to identify with.
Even then, "positive stereotypes" embraced by a community still cause a lot of harm, especially when those stereotypes originate outside the community. Like Asians being "model minorities" or Black men having "BBCs"

I'm starting to think these tropes are white nationalist fearmongering.
Asians being smart, with the implication that we are robots, walking talking calculators, etc.
