Innovation is actively punished by the Chinese, and has been for thousands of years… the idea of 'rocking the boat' is absolute anathema to them, and five thousand plus years of killing anyone that had an original idea, while promoting those who are smart but unimaginative, would certainly have an evolutionary effect.

Almost every innovation they have had in the last thousand years has been produced or stolen from westerners… and if the west ceases to exist, their civilization will collapse back into the decadent stagnancy from which we rescued them.

This has GOT to be hard on the chinese psyche… that and their childlike stature is causing a near-universal inferiority complex… a global form of 'little man's syndrome', that must be terribly difficult for their culture to handle.

Ironically, in history, Foreigners or people of foreign blood, were treated very well INDEED in the United states… far better, in fact, than most native whites of the lower class.

The trick here is, that they were unusual… They came, joined the native culture, and succeeded at our own game. We had enormous respect for someone that could beat us at our own game, despite the handicap of not having been born or bred here.

Our disgust today is based on the fact that they are not beating us at our own game… they are not becoming more american than we are, they are not the best and brightest coming in small numbers and assimalating better than our own lower class… They are BECOMING our lower class, and bitching ceaselessly about being treated exactly the same way we have always treated those who cannot succeed on their own merits.

the immigrants of today are LOSERS, and when they are treated like the losers they are, instead of taking it as a cue to get successful, it is a cue that 'we are unfair'. We joke about 'tornado magnets', and 'white trash', ceaselessly, but if we dare imply that similar foreign shitholes exist in our country, we are being 'racist'.

screw 'em. Detroit is hell, and the incredibly stupid american blacks made it that way. There are successful American blacks, but guess what? they don't live in Detroit, they live in the Hamptons with the rest of the success stories.

It's not our fault that there aren't very many of them.

Very true. In my experience they reserve a particular dislike for Africans and Indians.
