I’m not sure Asians are high IQ. Having a few friends that are Asian. Many are the book smart type. Can repeat what they’re told and follow directions. Often needed to be told twice. When they say they understand, they have a pajeet type mentality where they’ll say they understand but really don’t. Then fuck shit up. They’re not as dishonest as pajeets. But I also think they don’t possessed (generally) the skills necessary for critical thinking. To question what they’re told escapes them.

>they have a pajeet type mentality where they’ll say they understand but really don’t.

I spent some time in SE Asia and I noticed this as well. I asked a local and he explained it to me, it's similar to what we'd call "saving face". Rather than admit they don't know something they will PRETEND to know when in fact they have no idea. i asked for directions from 3 different ppl for what i thought was a well know tourist attraction and got 3 opposite answers. i thought there's no way ppl can be this dumb and/or this passive aggressive. it comes from shame and how they look at it in their culture.

it's like the opposite of how they call fat ppl fat because it's a matter of fact, while we pretend (as a whole) that we don't really notice it.

Yeah I can see that. I work for a semi conductor company so that means I work with majority of H1B types. I’m mainly for helping troubleshoot. And to help. I need answered questions of a situation. So you can imagine how frustrating it is when I ask. Did you try this? And they say yeah yeah. Then ghost me while I make other troubleshooting plans. To come back and they say it’s fixed. They fixed it…. Then after have to get how it was fixed, from another team member. And it was one of the first suggestions I’ve given. Fkn posses me off sometimes. Another White dude would just say. They didn’t check. Then tell me yup that was it. And problem is fixed less than a day in some cases.

when you apply that style of thinking you can understand the difference in output of the ppl.

how could you get anything done with a top down system of essentially white lies throughout? half you're day would be trying to just grasp the reality of the situation without the bs.

This is kinda how they as a whole operate. Spent a whole bunch of time in China, Japan, Thailand.

"That person is fat...there is nothing wrong with saying that because it is objectively true."

"No no no, we don't allow negroes here. Negroes are criminals. Don't argue with me that I am stereotyping, enough of them are criminals that it is not worth my trouble to business with any of them."

"You have failed at your work/school/whatever endeavor. It is not mean of me to say as such, because it objectively true. You should be ashamed and be ridiculed until you have recovered, not told it will be ok. I am embarrassed by you and will not associate with you until you give me a reason to."

It's a very matter of fact culture.

Yes, and even then it will differ amongst different kind of Asians. The closest ones to us would be Philippinos. They were mixed with Spaniards hundreds of years ago have not really been fully Asian since. They are mostly Catholic, their alphabet (while lacking some of our letters like "f" and "v', but they are so influenced by America and American culture, it is not uncommon to hear their natives be able to pronounce those letters while speaking English at a quite high level. They're mostly nice to be around and generally happy people.

Contrast that with chinks. They have thousands of characters to learn how to write their language. That takes a lot of commitment to learn how to even read their language. The parents are very strict in order to beat this information in the heads of their kids. As a result, they dont really get much of a childhood or learn how to do things like make friends and just like people.

I could get more into this, but my wife is nagging me to go to bed. I bet Asian men have the same complaints about women that we do.

Yes, but I think IQ and language also has a lot to do with it. For instance the many claims of Asians saying they did not have an internal monologue until they learned English.

The smarter ones probably do have a distinct different way of reasoning, but I couldn't say how.

[–] • 1 pt 6d

Do you think it is important to have an internal monologue?

[–] • 1 pt 6d

Absolutely. If you don’t, are you actually conscious? I encounter NPCs all the time, if you don’t have an internal monologue you can’t plan for the future, because you’re unable to think at a high level. It takes a special ability to run through possible scenarios when problem solving. If you can’t imagine language, how can you imagine cause and effect and visualize the intended outcome?

It is just... If you have two or more voices inside your head, you are considered insane, and rightfully so.

But for some reason, having one voice inside your head is considered optimal, the pinnacle of sanity.

It really doesn't make sense to me.

language shape the way you think

english has lots of overloaded words and is pretty much tolerant on spelling

After the subject of IQ comes up, we move to "look what monuments/advancements they have created."

I have found that asians lack ingenuity. Their math skills are based on remembering tricks not deductive reasoning. When you see a youtube trick of adding columns etc etc it has to do with the trick. If you simply learn the carry the one you can get any answer easily and can replicate it (figure it out) Without the tricks they are helpless. Ingenuity is a uniquely white trait. It takes the right combination of IQ, common sense, compassion and desire to succeed. Asians have a desire to win as do jews which clouds their minds and their solutions rarely involve compassion or a win-win solution. Also... most smart asians are either here or inside china subjugating others. Most are dumb as fuck which is why they are so cucked by their government.

I would agree, but the Japanese kind of confound this logic. Every time I watch an anime, I am absolutely astounded by their creativity.

Of course they do. They are Confucian/ Bhuddist, as opposed to Christian. Their worldview is different. Phillipinos were given religion by the Spanish, and education by the Americans, so their worldview is different still.
