it's a stereotype

And reinforces the stereotype that blacks, Hispanics and native Americans are bad at math.

Yeah. So? People are finally realizing racist doesn't inherently mean negative. Races are different. Accept it.

And we're all racist to some degree or another. It's ok to be racist.

Hey now. I take pride in my Algabraic skills.

All joking aside, Asians are extremely family-oriented and stress education. This idea that they’re intellectually superior always cracks me up. Put the work in, and you will succeed.......this is something that libs and SJW’s don’t understand too well.

I think that had more to do with the fact that most native cultures had no concept for ownership of land. In their religions, the land owned them, not the other way around. So, them selling land to the anglos was like me selling you the Brooklyn Bridge. They were selling something they didn't believe they owned and that no one could own.

Turns out, you own what you can defend and the natives couldn't defend shite but the anglos could.

Climate change is settled science.

This is fake science

IQ from wikipedia


Asians are smarter than all of us, it is just facts. Evolution is a real thing and under our control. White and Black IQs can match Asians if we breed our races the same way and focus on intelligence.

I've wondered why the natives (in America at least) were apparently not overly intelligent compared to their contemporaries if their ancestors were Asians.

If only this were the case...


There is a thread talking about how "racism is dead" and people are arguing about how "not racist" we all are these days. The truth is that "anti-racism" is a left wing, egalitarian/equalitarian talking point that has now been so firmly rooted in the psyche of the west that even otherwise normal, intelligent men can say with a straight face that there is "no racism" (the belief that all members of each race possess characteristics or abilities specific to that race, especially so as to distinguish it as inferior or superior to another race or races) in America.

It's actually one of the more ridiculous aspects of western society. Humans are naturally "racist", and their "racist" instincts actually serve them well as science and social studies have told us time and time again. That of course, doesn't have anything to do with immoral behaviors, like initiating violence, theft, or fraud on someone because of their race. That's something other than racism called "criminality".

I don't know if Asians are "naturally" good at math or not, but I do know that they are, in fact, good at math.

However they do it, kudos to Asians.

For fun, average women are smarter than you. It appears they hit some IQ glass ceiling though.

I wonder what is considered "white" in those studies. Also are those Asian IQs taken from Asians in the US or Asians in Asia. That's a big difference.

Not all Asians are equally prone to high IQ scores, which might have something to do with early population splits/environment. My guess is that the "indians" faced different developmental challenges and as a result are less intelligent, in general, than north east asians.

Also it's interesting that the natives that made it down to Mexico and SA seemed to be much more advanced than the natives in the US.
