Predominately country mostly has a small percentage of Asians even though it is predominately white where China is 100% homogenous population. I was asking Gideon. Regardless China is not 100% homogenous. 55 (give or take) ethnic minority groups in China. There are also non "Asian" minority groups in China whose desecendents are Russian. Indians I'm not 100% certain so I wont say. (Interesting to note. There are also Chinese ethnic descendent minority group in India (I actually know someone who is). ) This post has been edited by Henry123: Apr 13 2011, 05:09 PM |

Would you say the same thing for Asians living in predominatly white countries??? Well as Micc said you will find wayy more asians in any white country compared to blacks in China. Anyways lets ignore that. My comment was stated because she moved there because she loved the culture. Almost every person I know who loves a culture, lets say a guy loving korean culture through exposure to kpop will always want to date the women. So her stating she loves the culture yet is unwilling to date the men is so strange to me. So I would not say the same thing for Asians living in a white country because they didn't move there because they "love the culture". Asians who move to white countries move to achieve a better life because opportunities are easier to find/achieve. But lets ignore what I've said again and say that an asian person moved to sweden cuz she liked the culture. If she didn't want to date the men, yes I would say the same thing.

Only a moron can't understand this has nothing to do with interracial dating but racist preferences. Did a black girl break your heart or something. So sad for you. You obviously have no understanding of women or dating preferences. Just because she doesn't prefer Chinese in China doesn't mean she's racist. Why don't you enlighten me with your brilliance if you're so smart. |

I was asking Gideon. Regardless China is not 100% homogenous. 55 (give or take) ethnic minority groups in China. He means racially, there is no racial difference between Han, Manchu and Zhuang just as there is no racial difference between English and Scottish people. In fact China is also ethnically homogenous, with about 90% Han, in many European nations the main ethnic group is below 90%, and that is after two world wars, millions dead and numerous ethnic cleansing programs(the last was in the Balkans in the 1990s.) |

As I also said there are also descendents of white Russians in China. There also may be Indian decendents as well. This post has been edited by Henry123: Apr 14 2011, 09:05 AM |

So I would not say the same thing for Asians living in a white country because they didn't move there because they "love the culture". Asians who move to white countries move to achieve a better life because opportunities are easier to find/achieve. There are a number of wealthy families from HK who moved to Canada where I am. What about non Asians moving to China for better life and opportunities? Or Chinese populations in Indonesia and Malaysia who dont want to assimilate into the cultures there? Your thoughts?

Even Japan is not 100% Japanese, there are Ainus who are maybe white and Okinawas, but Japan will never allow mass immigration.
Canada, the US and Australia are lands of immigrants, they look at immigration differently because the land didn't belong to them (white people) in the first place. But you can see that in Europe there is heavy opposition to immigration from non EU countries. QUOTE What about non Asians moving to China for better life and opportunities? Just because there is 50 million German descendents in the US Germany should allow that anybody can come to Germany? Of course not, they are closed for most immigrants and that is why their population will fall to 70 million by 2050, but they already know that is better than having even more Turks in their country. The British will became a minority in their land by 2060s, and the polls show that the majority of white British oppose immigration and they don't want to became minority in their land, but according to your retarded logic it is OK to have millions of Muslims and Indians there because there are already English, Scottish, Welsh and Irish native ethnic groups there so a few new ethnic groups does not matter. Countries can not function properly if there is not one dominant ethnic group, and the more homogeneous the country is the better it is functioning. In the US 95% of black people voted for Barrack Obama while most whites voted for Mccain(other minorities such as Hispanics also voted for Obama, I am sure when there will be some Hispanic candidate that 95% of Hispanics will vote for him/her. That is why multiracial/too diverse countries without one dominant ethnic group don't function and sometimes fall apart. Here is the US election votes in 2008 by race:http://edition.cnn.com/ELECTION/2008/resul...ls/#val=USP00p1 Just shows how multiculturalism works This post has been edited by bear11: Apr 15 2011, 06:24 AM |

Multiculturalism worked. 57% of white the white population voted for McCain. That left 43% that voted for Obama. The rest were minority votes for Obama and he won. The white guy lost the election. Is it really hard to grasp that sometimes people vote based on the person themselves? And with regards to other comments in the room about her being racist. How many Asians love hip hop but don't want to date a black woman? I guess that means all those Asians are racist too, right? |

Or Chinese populations in Indonesia and Malaysia who dont want to assimilate into the cultures there? Your thoughts? First of all, China is crowded and the housing price is skyrocketing, so it is pointless to allow immigrants in adding more oil to the fire right? What are you talking about? Multiculturalism worked. 57% of white the white population voted for McCain. That left 43% that voted for Obama. The rest were minority votes for Obama and he won. The white guy lost the election.

How many Asians love hip hop but don't want to date a black woman? I guess that means all those Asians are racist too, right? I had this discussion on Chinadaily forum, you can go read it over there.

just look at TIMSS, PISA and SAT scores by race. Only Asians and Whites have good results there, it is pretty obvious that the US is over, it is to became the next Brazil or it is going to fall apart. |

The thing is, nations such as Australia, Canada, and the US are not "origin countries". They were lands stolen from the natives, hence the very core foundation of these nations are of multi racialism. Other places are not founded as a multinational country. China is a country for Chinese, Korea is a country for Koreans, and so on. Yes, one would argue that "wait, but don't these countries have minority groups as well?" Well, most of the people there are already close genetically or appearance wise. What's more is that the concept of a nation is a relatively new concept history-wise. If a group wasn't there before the founding of a nation, they would always be outsiders. Imagine if China starts having white or black politicians within its government. The idea is simply inconceivable. They are raised with a different viewpoint. Furthermore, race would always influence you no matter how you were raised. If China starts becoming multi national, then it would no longer be China for the Chinese but China for every race under the sun.

Only Asians and Whites have good results there, it is pretty obvious that the US is over, it is to became the next Brazil or it is going to fall apart. Brazil has smart people! One of the smartest girls in my geography class back in primary school came from Brazil, an A-student with dark skin from Rio de Janeiro. I met a really bright professor (unfortunately working as a tour guide to make ends meet) when I visited the Amazon too--very dark skin and he kept joking about how he'd vanish into the shadows if we took a photo of him. My tourguide in Rio was also a professor who looked very Portugese. Also if you had been there and seen the megaengineering they do, you might think differently about their latent abillities. I was seriously impressed by their ingenuity..blasting tunnels through granite mountains, building huge roundabouts to slow down cars as they went down steep mountains.... coming up with all kinds of unusual medical and consumer applications for forest products from the amazon. You know they use cheap ethanol for their boats right? You could be sailing down a river and there's a floating barge selling diesel or ethanol--ethanol is cheaper but it doesn't last as long, and so you have an interesting choice.... They're some of the more clever, inegenious, and "creative" people I've met. They find ways to do new things with very little money and crumbling infrastructure--just imagine what they could do if they had the right tools. I think you have a misconception about Brazilians.

But Asians' prominent presence at http://www.societyforscience.org/STS and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Science_Olympiad is unbelievable! |

Have you guys ever question why countries like Australia, Canada, Brazil, US are going for multiculturalism?
They're doing this to weaken land/title claims from natives, and to hide their past atrocities made to natives as well. Within this century, Australia, Brazil, Canada and U.S will completely become multicultural and virtually no natives will be able to claim their lands/culture/history back. |
