    Hi.

    In the beginning of that facebook movie Mark Zuckenberg says that "there are more geniuses in China than there are people in the US". Is this correct? Or was it intended to be a joke and not correct at all?
    >> Anonymous 03/01/11(Tue)11:14 No.2625065
    Yes, it's correct.

    Americans are sub-humans for believing in capitalism. He is correct.

    If Asians are so smart, why do they go to Britain and American universities?

    Why not build it themselves if they're so good?

    >implying the Chinese higher education system isn't a complete joke.

    Chinks are stupid, as are all Asians. They're even stupider than an average American. Terrible education, bad earnings and double digit IQ at best.

    I don't know about "genius", but it's definitely true in regards to their understanding of scholarly material.

    Which is basically the only thing that matters.

    It's just a numbers game anyway. They have so many goddamn people though the bottom 50% of like mentally retarded farmers.

    china population=1338 million
    usa population=308 miilion
    308/1338=23%
    top 23 %= around 111 IQ with sd=15

    So not quite true, but he has a point.

    Then why do Japan and South Korea have the same problem? Both have them have very high achieving schoolchildren but their universities contribute little to scientific research.

    If China was that filled with geniuses then they wouldn't be living in one of the most oppressive and failure prone political systems on Earth.

    The hell you talking about.

    "Despite its world-class universities, laboratories and Nobel prize winners, Japan's share of the world's research production slipped to 6.75 percent in 2009 from 9.45 percent in 2000.

    The same was seen in the United States, whose share fell to 28.5 percent in 2009 from 33.5 percent in 2000, while Britain's share fell to 7.68 percent from 9.43 percent within the same period."

    American universities are just superior to everything else. But Japan's pretty competitive in research.

    Not to mention Japan's focus is more so towards consumer and corporate research rather than academic research.

    Given that Japan is twice the size of Britain and has a superior secondary education system, that's a pretty poor showing.

    I'm also confused by the claim about "world-class universities, laboratories and Nobel prize winners". I don't know about labs, but Japan doesn't have any universities ranked in the global top ten and has fewer Nobel prize winners that most much smaller Western European countries, even if one only looks at the past 30 or so years.

    The truth is that IQ doesn't measure creativity.

    East Asians simply do not have the same Western capacity to engage in creative, abstract thought. Their intelligence is entirely geared towards rote memorisation and recall of facts, or mechanical number operations.

    Where's the great music and art of the East? Where are their Picassos, Warhols, Mozarts, Boschs, Da Vincis? Where are their brilliant inventors?

    Statistically, if we could boil the proclivity for human achievement down to IQ, then statistically China would be pumping out brilliant art and music all over the fucking place, because it is worth A FUCK TON OF MONEY, but all they have is a nation of autistics that are effectively one step removed from the Borg.

    China will never be as great as the West. Never.

    it's not a matter of intelligence, it's a matter of culture.
    Asians have crazy work ethic so they study harder and get better results.
    they are also taught they are never good enough and to strive to be the best.

    in america you can get an F and be praised about how original you are and how you are simply having difficulties beacuse you are special.

    the entitlement culture in america is really fucking bad.

    that said it promotes free thinking and individuality making a genius in america more prone to invent something that is actually innovative.

    Asians on the other hand are very conformist and have a dogmatic mind state making it harder to think outside of the box.

    america needs to change it's entitlement culture or it will keep going down the fucking drain.

    china will eventually need to stop pressuring it's kids or they will have a nation full of engineers and no scientists.

    i'm sure they exist, but art does not move easily from one culture to a very different one, so you and i don't know about them.

    china was once technologically more advanced than the west, so i'm sure they have a great deal of genius level inventors and scholars too.

    btw, for now this is unsourced so don't believe me just yet but I remember reading that around the time the East was having its Golden Age with its palaces and silk, the west was still living in huts and wearing bearskins.
