East Asians

Asian intellect lacks differentiation

The Chinese clearly lack a systematic differentiation, most notably reflected from the likeness of the population: black hair, small eyes, yellowish skin. Arthur Smith describes this in Disregard of Accuracy: "the resemblance between one Chinese and another is the likeness between a pair of peas from the same pod." Einstein made a similar remark.

In Hong Kong, Einstein wrote, "even those reduced to working like horses never give the impression of conscious suffering. A peculiar herd-like nation [ … ] often more like automatons than people."

"I noticed how little difference there is between men and women," he added. "I don't understand what kind of fatal attraction Chinese women possess which enthralls the corresponding men to such an extent that they are incapable of defending themselves against the formidable blessing of offspring."

Chairman Mao would not have come to power if not for the hive mentality of the masses in China. As someone who is partially responsible for one of the most tragic famines in modern history and for communist policies that even the Chinese state media later regarded as mistakes, Mao is still regularly being celebrated in Chinese media. Imagine if this is how the west still views Hitler.

Similarities with Neanderthals

Would it be fair to draw a comparison between Asians and the extinct Homo species, the Neanderthal? Asians do have a larger brain, just like the Neanderthal, but their brain seems to devote more towards motion control, and their mind seems more oriented towards pictorial thinking.

Neanderthals had an average brain size larger than that of modern humans. The shape of a brain with differing emphases on its various functions is also taken as a pointer to mental capacity, for example, Neanderthals are routinely said to have more of the brain devoted to sight and body control, which implies less capacity for social interaction skills and abstract thought.

Farming origin

"The origins of the Han Chinese are primarily from Neolithic Yellow River farmers." (Genetic history of East Asians – Wikipedia) "The ethnic stock to which the Han Chinese originally trace their ancestry were confederations of late Neolithic and early Bronze Age agricultural tribes known as the Huaxia that lived along the Guanzhong and Yellow River basins in Northern China." (Han Chinese – Wikipedia)

There are physical, behavioral, societal characteristics that agree with the farmer origin of East Asians, relatively speaking to Whites.

Physical

resistance to sunburn: an evolutionary advantage for working on the field for long periods of time.
Loud voice with quite a bass, which would help carry the message across over the rice paddy.
- The habit of yelling to enforce command or criticism is ingrained in the Chinese, and appears to be ineradicable. To expostulate with another in an ordinary tone of voice, pausing at times to listen to his opponent's reply, is to a Chinese almost a psychological impossibility (SOCIAL TYPHOONS)
- All scholars in Chinese schools spend their time in shouting out their lessons at the top of their voices, to the great injury of their vocal organs, and to the almost complete destruction of the foreigner (MUTUAL SUSPICION)
Thick and spreading eyebrows that are great for preventing the rain from getting into the eye. In the meantime, thick and sporadic hair helps keep the skull dry quickly once the rain stops.
Bodily functions seem to be more pronounced in the Chinese such as clearing the throat.
higher bone density?
short stature is easier to bend down. Sturdy, stocky body build.

Behavioral

Fear of losing face, as it seems so detrimental to their self-esteem
The emphasis on memorization, repetition versus understanding and synthesis.
hardworking: necessary for the labor-intensive, rather than intellectual, work. As a matter of fact, Arthur Smith has an essay titled Physical Vitality on the Chinese.
Little imagination and little euphemism. Not a prerequisite for farming whatsoever. If anything, daydreaming is a handicap to a productive life.
Little sense of design
Little etiquette. Chinese can even be perceived as rude. It'd not help with crop production.

The expressions, "I'll beat you," "I'll kill you," are understood by a Chinese child of some experience to constitute an ellipsis for "Stop that!" (THE ABSENCE OF SINCERITY)

High spatial intelligence makes them great farmers as it is beneficial to precision. It's also a double-edged sword, as compensation for lack of verbal, arithmetic, and analytical intelligence prevents them from producing the world's most forward thinkers, innovators, theorists, and any other profession of the creative type.
The common people are quite content to tell their time by the altitude of the sun. (Disregard of Time)
English speakers of east Asian ethnicity tend to sound out each individual words more than their white counterparts, as if they were still splitting out individual Chinese characters. Moreover, they also have a tendency to "speak from the diaphragm", resulting in a deep voice.

Societal

Top-down, order-oriented, hieratical social structure, which is most notably reflected by its omnipresent government. This is in contrast to the democratic, contract-based, law-based, rule-based, flat societies of the west, where a statement as personal and private as the marriage vow is a form of contract. In a sense, this difference reflects the lack of initiative on part of the Chinese, who need to be ordered, and the free agency of the white man.
Asian society tends to be honor-based, where they receive respect because of their position, wealth, intelligence and so on. It is in Asia where that kind of mentality is greater than in the West. It's a mentality where the order comes from the top, who can never be wrong.
East Asia has the hardware companies: the auto companies, the electronics companies, while western countries have the soft power: movies, video games, books, and software. Despite the rather huge success of those Asian companies, they certainly lack the cultural impact the west has. Those hardware companies are rather labor-intensive, just like farming.

The white race and the western society

Imagination and creativity

The white people have invented the world's most practical devices: the light bulb by Edison, the airplane by Wright Brothers, and the alternate current by Tesla. In the meantime, they have also come up with products that only exist in our mind. Sure, those can be printed on books, be played on the screen, but ultimately, the medium of consumption is not as relevant as the words, the concepts, and the ideas. As a matter of fact, they can exist in many different forms to the extent that they are evasive and penetrative. Those figments of imagination are one or more products of abstraction, logic, creativity, originality and imagination.

In that sense, white people have in them the most elaborate, and most deceitful liars; the kind that completely escapes the hand of the justice system. As a matter of fact, not only do those crazy storytellers not need to suffer the consequences of lying, they are celebrated. Would it be possible for a man, upon being bit by a spider, to acquire superhuman powers such as wall climbing, and insurmountable strength? How about a boy, by the name of Harry Potter, who would grow up to have magical powers and go on to attend a school of wizardry, if such a school could ever exist in the first place?

Perhaps, whites realize the most important realm in life is not the physical one and that it is the one of the mind. The physical world is merely a realization of what's happened in the mind, and although execution of ideas is important, realization is inexpensive. This probably is why many of them, although very smart with money, treat physical assets quite lightly, as they are a tool for the pleasure of the mind. That's probably why whites invest so much in education, in libraries and in entertainment.

The high-trust western society

Western societies are high-trust and straightforward, where newcomers are welcomed as if they were family. It's not uncommon for total strangers to exchange pleasantries on the street in many midsized cities. Arthur Smith describes in this passage that reflects the different levels of trust in the two societies.

The lofty walls which enclose all premises in Chinese, as in other Oriental cities and towns, are another exemplification of the same traits of suspicion. If it is embarrassing for a foreigner to know how to speak to a Chinese of such places as London or New York, without unintentionally conveying the notion that they are "walled cities," it is not less difficult to make Chinese who may be interested in Western lands understand how it can be that in those countries people often have about their premises no enclosures whatever. The immediate, although unwarranted, inference on the part of the Chinese is that in such countries there must be no bad characters of any kind.

White characteristics

Many east Asians that have little experience with other races regard whites as barbaric, because of their large physique and their hairiness, but oftentimes whites are actually gentle beasts. Many have an almost baby-like voice that's clear, and their behavior is cordial and graceful.

Those innate, intrinsic advantages in appearance make whites suitable for public-facing roles: actors, TV anchors, orators, politicians, models. Additionally, their advantage in verbal skills makes them great writers, broadcasters, singers.

Who is a genius? A genius is considered so probably because he can tackle seemingly difficult tasks with relative ease. Such tasks just seem natural to them. While geniuses can occur in all sorts of domains, we are only concerned here with the intellectual domain. The lack of geniuses in Asia can be seen through this popular mentality, which translates to: work hard, endure the bitterness. Indeed, geniuses tend to enjoy what they do; in fact, there's no other vocation that they would rather take than the one that they seem to have been born to work on. They actually seem to take everything with a greater deal of ease. From dummies to geniuses, they "take it easy", as the saying goes.
