I don’t care if one group scores higher on intelligence than another, I do mind the inability to even discuss that fact.
Whereas on the other hand, it can be stated as proven fact that I (all caucasians) are inherently racist and therefore I am somehow causing someone else to do poorly. Although I know of nothing I’ve ever done in my life in that regard.
Gee maybe it would be fair not to be able to call innocent people racist? This is how the left molds our debate.
Leftist: Some minority is doing worse than a white male, and because we know there can be no other reason, it is caused by the white male’s racism.
“We Asians are good with numbers, but we are not creative...”
So is a calculator.
FYI to my knowledge all Asian peoples are listed in every minority owned business given an advantage program.
If you read those lists they identify every type of person on earth, except only for a white European male.
So yes, it is assumed a Japanese or whoever suffers discrimination and that only white males do not need help.
They’re probably worse in history.
The inventors of gunpowder and fire-arms can’t be that bad.
Oh, and by the way, for classification purposes “Asians” also include people from the Indian subcontinent. The high incomes are from this group. There are other surveys breaking down income by ethnic origin.
‘Asian Indian’ Americans, ‘Japanese’ Americans and Ashkenazi Jews have consistently occupied the top slots here.
I agree with you; it matters more about culture and the emphasis put on education and achievement. Back when there was real racism in the United States, and before the age of welfare addiction, black families were cohesive and prized educational opportunities. Welfare and pop culture destroyed that, so much that now black comedians openly joke that “a book to a n***** is like Kryptonite to Superman.”
A study was done in the past few years of family consequences for failed academic achievement by race.
Where do white families typically impose discipline on a child for not producing results? When the kid brings home less than a “B.”
For blacks, its if it’s less than a “C” or failing.
Asians punish their kids if there is anything less than straight “As.”
Kids will perform to their expectations.
Dang. Wish I were asian.
Obviously they were anticipating free money from Obama's stash.
“I started to post graphs from the infamous “bell curve” but knew they would be pulled.”

Go ahead.
That seminal, foundational work deserves MUCH more exposure.
Besides, I’ve been watching for the truthful, but politically incorrect Post #9 in this Thread, to be pulled, and it hasn’t been.
So, Green Light.
At a Chinese wedding dinner I attended, the topic of fung shui came up, and I commented that maybe there is some sort of artistic basis to it. I was surprised that someone else at the table put down her entire race, saying: "Chinese artistic? No way."
“The inventors of gunpowder and fire-arms can’t be that bad.”
From what I’ve read the Chinese used gunpowder as a noisemaker and flash for celebrations, then in grenades. Europeans were the first to use it in firearms.
If you look at cultures like Japan, S. korea,Taiwan, China.... education is supreme, working hard is supreme, no sense of entitlement....you get what you work for. Students there rigorously compete for limited slots at elite universities. Only the best of the best get rewarded.
We, on the other hand, have chosen a path of political correctness, embracing diversity, rewarding not for merit, but for the sake of diversity. Nothing wrong with diversity, but how to compete on a global scale, when our competitors reward for motivation , and we reward mediocrity?
In regards to Asians getting special credit....Asians do NOT get affirmative action when it comes to hiring or college admissions. In fact, the University of California is inundated with hard working Asians with stellar grades and test scores, to the point where they ahve to be turned away, in favor of a less-stellar “diverse” student body.
Once again, how can America survive into the future when we discourage being the best, and then settle for the worst, in the name of diversity? Just look at what we got in the white house for that very reason.
We are a color blind society. ANYONE can achieve greatness, unless you condemn yourself to being a victim. Asians, despite relatively few role models in sports and entertainment (how many Asianamerican pop stars can you name) somehow don’t feel victimized by US Culture, while other minorities do.
WHY?
I’ve found it depends on the day
and the mood of the moderators...
sometimes posting something “too true” gets pulled
sometimes not.
I read something on the net afew years ago pertaining to studies that were done back in the 30’s I think it was. These doctors/scientists did research and wrote a journal on the results which if now were put out there in the public realm would cause an uproar but back then was just considered fact. Only it was on Brain power/IQ and they concluded intelligence and even brain structure somewhat differed in the various races. There too, Asians were at top of list and caucasian 2nd....and so on.
I didn’t answer the income question on the census form
No. The Chinese invented the first guns - hand-cannons, centuries before anyone else did. The oldest archaeological evidence for firearms in Europe goes back to the 1300s - Arab designs, basically, in turn borrowed from the Chinese via the Mongols.

At least we were the first to invent spaghetti. ;-)
Heh heh!
Marco Polo’s Chinese host rolls in his grave!
