  1. That is just western racism. China leads the world in 37 of the 44 critical technological fields of the future. The dismissive oh they just worked harder Is like saying well Kobe just stayed longer and worked harder in the gym. So let's give the job to another guy

  2. I don't think you understand the people making a dollar a day wages on the factory floor 50 years ago. Are the same middle class folks you complain about buying up your homes these days in the USA

  3. America hasn’t naturally replaced itself since 1972 And is facing a demographic nightmare The only thing saving the USA is immigrants from Asian countries these days

  4. @tianzi49 There is a 7 volume 27 book, series on what the Chinese invented called Science and Civilization. That says we stole much of what was invented from them China at one point, for a millennia traded places with India for number 1 economy in the world. By the 1430s it was the worlds technological and economic leader But their emperor at the time started the process of closing the country in on itself. Which lead to the gradual decline of the country for 400 years until it’s eventual semi colonization in the 1830s that period lasted for another 100 years until WWII came along and Japan just pushed the rest of the colonizers out of a China . From their you had their civil war, Korean war, Great Leap Forward and Cultural Revolution where they went rafter the intellectuals Right up to the 1970s where the west went once again to Try and get China to open up These days the Chinese lead in 37 of 44 critical technologies of the future. Meaning they will have a strangle hold on future technology Has their Belt & Road partner Countries to trade with While most western countries saddled with debt, low population replacement numbers. Elect right wing Governments to close off their countries

  5. Hidden tigers: why do Chinese children do so well at school? Children of Chinese origin, whether rich or poor, do incredibly well in school – but hardly any studies have been done to find out why * This showed not only that British Chinese youngsters are the highest performing ethnic group in England at GCSE, which has been known for years. It also showed that this group seemed to be singularly successful in achieving that goal of educational policy-makers everywhere: a narrow performance gap between those from the poorest homes, and the rest. * The domestic statistics show that, at GCSE, children of Chinese ethnicity – classed simply as "Chinese" in the data – who are eligible for free school meals (FSM) perform better than the national average for all pupils, rich and poor. Not only that, but FSM Chinese pupils do better than those of most other ethnic backgrounds, even when compared with children from better-off homes (those not eligible for free school meals). A detailed look at the figures makes this clearer. Some 71% of Chinese FSM pupils achieved five good GCSEs, including English and maths, in 2009. For non-FSM Chinese pupils, the figure was 72%. Every other ethnic group had a gap of at least 10 percentage points between children who do not count as eligible for free meals, and those who do. The gap for white pupils stood at 32 percentage points. THEGUARDIAN

  7. Reading this thread will tell you It is filled with too much opinion and not much fact First there is a 7 volume 27 book series called Science and Civilization in China that says we stole what the Chinese invented first And these days China lead the world in 37 of 44 critical technologies of the future 👇 'Wake-Up Call': China Leads in 37 Out of 44 Critical Technology Sectors, Says Report. The Australian Strategic Policy Institute has pointed out that only seven of the 44 technologies analysed by its report are currently led by a democratic country, 'and that country in all instances is the US.

  8. 50 years ago they were making a dollar a day on a factory floor in China. 88% of them lived in abject poverty with a famine ever other year. Now they are in the USA pushing folks like you out of house and home You know who gets it Black folk in Africa these days. As they enrich themselves with the Chinese engagement in Africa. So while their lives get better Black Americans will go the other direction 👇 Chinese buyers expand their reach in the US housing market as the middle class gets in on the act Chinese buyers have been the top foreign buyers in both units and dollar volume of residential housing for six years straight, according to the National Association of Realtors, and now they expanding to new, lower price tiers.

  10. Where are you getting your fake news First there is a 7 volume 27 book series called Science and Civilization in China that says we stole what the Chinese invented first And these days China lead Ms the world in 37 of 44 critical technologies of the future If you are asking what happened to China? They are a harbinger for you Americans Long story short they were the technological and economic power in the 1430s. But they started the long process of closing in on themselves closing off their borders leading to 400 years of decline and their eventual semi-colonization in the 1830, for another 100 years until WWII And they never ran up the Sovereign debt you Americans have run up 👇 'Wake-Up Call': China Leads in 37 Out of 44 Critical Technology Sectors, Says Report. The Australian Strategic Policy Institute has pointed out that only seven of the 44 technologies analysed by its report are currently led by a democratic country, 'and that country in all instances is the US.

  12. You are making my argument for me It’s racist to say Kobe was only good because he worked harder than anyone else black people spend notre time on the basketball court so let’s give the ball to someone else Even though Asians have the highest household income in the USA There is still a bamboo ceiling for them It’s already been documented they don’t like Asians as their boss Their only good at their job because they work harder than others

  13. It’s the if only attitude if only we worked as hard They just work harder It’s a good and bad a way to bring up people Or a way to bring down people A good stereotype or a bad stereotype at the same time
