Why would you want to go to university with a bunch of completely uncreative people who only sit around and study? Studying (for actual classes) is only part of what university is about. Most Asians are so bland that they could easily be replaced by some sort of advanced work/study-robots and we wouldn't know the difference.

Of course, since universities have been turned into factories, robots are perfectly adapted to that environment.

This is one of the most incredibly racist things I've ever read. I beg you to reconsider - look at the incredibly rich cultural traditions of China (India could also fit into this mold), and then talk to me about creativity.

This is obviously a subjective matter, but I would say that the sum of the culture of the West is far richer than that of any other culture, even though ancient China and India are impressive in many ways.

But it really doesn't matter what China was like 2000 years ago. What matters is what Asians are like _today_.

Okay - look at the Beijing 2008 Olympics. The bird's nest, the water cube, the opening and closing ceremonies.

Now let's compare it to the London Olympics in 2012. Then you can tell me which culture is more creative!

So is your contention that most asians are uncreative and most westerners are creative folks?

[theoden]

It is my observation that Asians, on average, are more uncreative/conformist/careerist/bland than Westerners. But hey, that's OK -- I just wouldn't want to got to a university with too many Asians.

I see. An interesting generalization for sure :)
