magazine column

2017-07-27 12:09:28 UTC  

same thing

2017-07-27 12:10:12 UTC  

Ye

2017-07-27 12:10:23 UTC  

and this is what's written there

2017-07-27 12:10:24 UTC  

>There is evidence that this might not happen; intelligence testing of Asians shows a relatively small standard deviation, suggesting a smaller right tail of the IQ distribution and a smaller percentage of innovative individuals.

2017-07-27 12:10:37 UTC  

no reference to anything

2017-07-27 12:11:15 UTC  

it looks like a valid reference at first

2017-07-27 12:11:17 UTC  

its not

2017-07-27 12:13:06 UTC  

I wouldn't be surprised if it is

2017-07-27 12:13:24 UTC  

There is an enormous difference in innovation when comparing Asian civilization to Western Civilization

2017-07-27 12:13:36 UTC  

Sorry im back now anything i miss

2017-07-27 12:13:38 UTC  

of course both are notable, but there is definitely a significant difference

2017-07-27 12:13:58 UTC  

I'm going to keep searching for a source regardless

2017-07-27 12:14:36 UTC  

asia is home to a different culture

2017-07-27 12:14:50 UTC  

a taoist would literally laugh at the suggestion that innovation is important

2017-07-27 12:15:16 UTC  

I thought Taoism was mainly popular in China

2017-07-27 12:15:21 UTC  

and Korea

2017-07-27 12:15:24 UTC  

it is

2017-07-27 12:15:38 UTC  

china is where most of the east asians live

2017-07-27 12:15:42 UTC  

and if they're not in china

2017-07-27 12:15:49 UTC  

they're in Japan

2017-07-27 12:15:49 UTC  

then they're in indochina (shitty jungle)

2017-07-27 12:15:52 UTC  

or japan

2017-07-27 12:15:54 UTC  

(shitty island)

2017-07-27 12:15:59 UTC  

also fuedal wars till 1700s or some shit

2017-07-27 12:16:02 UTC  

probably more based than china tbh

2017-07-27 12:16:09 UTC  

nah idm both

2017-07-27 12:16:09 UTC  

japan is infinitely worse than china

2017-07-27 12:16:13 UTC  

except for commies

2017-07-27 12:16:42 UTC  

china has commies

2017-07-27 12:17:53 UTC  

Culture may have held them back in a way

2017-07-27 12:18:17 UTC  

still they should've held sway over europe if they had the iq advantage

2017-07-27 12:18:24 UTC  

yet europe still strode over them significantly

2017-07-27 12:18:28 UTC  

how

2017-07-27 12:18:30 UTC  

if your belief is

2017-07-27 12:18:36 UTC  

make no goals

2017-07-27 12:18:39 UTC  

live in the present moment

2017-07-27 12:18:45 UTC  

do not strive toward anything
