White people claim that they are racially and culturally superior to Asians. Do you agree, and if so, what is the cause for it?

Asians lack creativity

Asia had geographical disadvantages

Asia had a warfare problem

Doesn't sound familiar; maybe something got lost in translation?

Maybe what was infact said was 'taller'?

If you ask Americans they will tell you that Asians can't drive but are good at maths and in the UK if a dog goes missing someone might suggest it has been cooked up in one of the Chinese restaurants.

I realise that not all Asians are Chinese, only most Asians are Chinese but I'm fairly certain it is accurate to say that the Chinese are eye wateringly racist.

So although that wasn't an opinion that I had coming into this thread it does appear that 'white people' might literally be racially and culturally superior, aslong as just being taller slightly less racist is enough to qualify?

That's weird, I didn't i would find myself agreeing with a racist but he does appear to be correct.

Not sure many people say that. Still from a historic point of view Asia didn't go as far as Europe because their geography was not as divided, allowing one group to control nearly all of them far more reliably.

This in turn reduced the competitive drive to innovate, and control corruption.

As such while Europe had many empires they didn't last as long or as reliably united as China's because European geography is more divided. The result was Europeans states had more time to be held accountable in competition.

I've literally never heard a white person say that.

You're not in history class often then

[LazerBean]

If that's what you have to tell yourself.

I've never heard anyone say that (although I have heard a few people say the opposite).

If anyone is saying that, it's a fringe view.

Never heard a white person say this. I've heard white liberals claim this.

[Astarlessnightsky]

I disagree with the claim, racist people think that way.

[slatyb]

Which white people are those? I don't know any of them. There are racists of every ethnicity.

[OddBeMe]

Not applicable. You think race or nationality has anything to do with intelligence or “class” and it doesn’t.

Countries and governments can have affect culturally. And we can criticize them.

I grew up in a school that was 80% white. Nobody said that in fact most know there never going to get as good of grades.

[CantMissIt]

I don't know any people that claim this.

[BarryLiverstone]

No I don’t think people say that in good faith

[Snakeyes7]

I don't agree with that.
