re: Mostly white arrogance

Indians and East Asians naturally are high IQ like Western Europeans.

Any high IQ person is capable of advanced problem solving and innovation. Whether they can do it largely depends on experience and an education that develops such skills. So the quote in OP probably was true at one point, but as time goes on and that demographic is submerged in technology and attends universities in their home country that now focus on developing those skills, they go from “intelligent grunt employees” to now being problem solvers and innovators because they’ve spent years applying themselves.

If you naturally have a high IQ you can be capable of anything. However groups with sub 100 IQs will never be more than worker bees because their brain cannot be developed to a stage where they can innovate and problem solve
