Oh I was just wondering if Asian people were really the highest IQ people, and if so why? And do you think the Elite want everyone to become black so we can live everywhere on earth without dying from skin cancer? The elite may have created black people using forgotten genetic technology long ago in an ancient civilization, and Europeans and Asians may have mixed with other hominids unexpectedly, now the elite want to make everyone the same again. I guess I didn't explain my question well enough at first.
Well, as a group, Asians do have higher IQs. Why? I don't know. It could be cultural because they place a heavy emphasis on education. But I really don't know the answer.
Yes you may be right, I believe a strong encouragement to succeed and learn allows them to be much smarter as a whole. They probably have lower rates of drug and alcohol abuse and crime, as well as stronger family ties. Ashkenazi Jews are said to be the highest IQ group, and I always thought it was for similar reasons, strong emphasis on education, work, math, family.
Not all asians, Japan and Korea have the highest I believe. There's actually a lot of genetic differences between the asian nationalities. But Korea and Japan are among the most similar and the brightest. Vietnam, China, Phillipines, etc. all score pretty average for the most part
Hong Kong has the highest at 105. I think I read that the average for ashkenazi Jews is like 120. Anyhow Japanese people have paternal haplogroups similar to Koreans, but also have D, which is shared with tibetans and admanese people. Very fascinating. D was connected to mine, E, which is the main African one, so you can see that some Japanese have curly hair and darker features compared to other asians. Main group is Ainu people or Jomon.
Right, I heard China artificially inflates test scores and stuff like that because they want to look good. That's why I was asking if they're really that smart.
Well, considering your own confirmation bias implicitly means you aren't interested in having this question answered, and rather just want to pontificate your ideas about race (do, by all means) I know you may not be particularly interested in my answer, but here it is.
Look at the culture in a place like, Japan. They are a collectivist culture that values the individual's contribution to society higher than the individual's self-interest. Because of this, you have things like the salary man; people who basically pledge their lives to corporations when they're still in school. Because there is this value placed on collectivist work, there is value placed in collectivist education. It's not much different in China.
So the answer is: because they are a very highly-organized society that values collectivism over individualism, they developed a very rigid and successful public education system that pretty much puts everyone on some kind of job track at a very young age, thus sort of cementing their intelligence and life path, in a weird and strange way.
So that's the actual like, sociologic, political answer.
You may be interested in another answer hypothesized from some evolutionary biologists that suggests asians (all East Asians, Mongolians, Pacific Islanders, etc) actually evolved from a separate primate ancestor when Homo sapiens migrated to the Asian continent, so while they aren't Homo sapiens sapiens, they are some other offshoot of homo sapien. I'm too lazy to google it--that's your job now, OP. But basically something something different bone structures, different heights and metabolisms, different pore and hair follicles, tons of stuff.
Personally I don't choose to believe in any evolutionary theories one way or another, but I know we'll figure it out eventually.
Hey thanks for the response! I'm not being racist, I'm just curious if Asians are legitimately smarter, and if so why? I also mentioned what you referenced about Asians having mixed with Denisovans. Conversely Europeans and Asians may be mixed with other hominids, but just like their ancestors, they may die out due to a more adapted competitor Homo sapiens ( since African people haven't mixed as much with other hominids).
Asians are better at the game of life. They don't commit as much crime, they work hard, make better grades, score higher on tests, etc. Values is the biggest reason. Where do these values come from? It can all be boiled down to two-parent homes. If you research single parent home statistics by country/ethnicity, you'll see other important life statistics following suit (crime, poverty, IQ, etc.). And it isn't likely to change anytime soon.
Yes I figure that is the reason, same goes for Ashkenazi Jews. Honestly Europeans were doing excellent until recently, seems we've forgotten our traditions and values.

You start off about IQ, then you finish with the elites created black people. ???

Hello friend, how are you doing today?

I'm okay. But I'm a wondering about you. This post doesn't make sense to me.

As far as the other part - I don't think so.

Yes, I think a stable and loving family play a big part lower drug and alcohol rates.

Koreans are much smarter than the Japanese...maybe comparable to the Jews.

1 LyleMillar 2017-08-24
Yes I realize this, as they have excellent verbal intelligence iirc. Yet as a nation Hong Kong and china have around 105 average.
1 SauceOrSass 2017-08-24
Here is a list of the average IQs for the top ranking nations.
Remember that is highest average for each nation's population
and is an indication of how many are educated more than how high each nation's say,
top IQs would rank and I would put India on the list of people I know personally with very high IQs..
1 LyleMillar 2017-08-24
Thanks, this is slightly different from the one I saw earlier but still shows Hong Kong as 1.
1 SauceOrSass 2017-08-24
And those averages are more representative of how well a nation educates its citizens than how high individual IQs are.
Sad to see the U.S. way down at nbr 19

Define "Asians". SE Asian countries score 10 points lower than the baseline (100). Japanese/Korean/Chinese 3 to 6 points higher than the baseline.
