Asian ppl bought it on themselves not confronting these sexpats.

The problem is some people are bleeding heart safe spacers who have trouble with introspection and being brutally honest with themselves. Before you can try to improve on a situation, you need to truly know what is actually going on. You need to know the truth even if its ugly and uncomfortable, because you will need to tackle those problems in order to effectuate improvements that leads to betterment and a positive outcome for yourself. Safe spacers need to stay at home.

The naked truth is, Western civilizations built better nations. It's true. And not just when you compare the West to most Asian countries either (except Japan who's cities are frankly better than many in the West actually). It's true compared to pretty much every other continent or third world country that exists today whether that be in the Middle East, South America or Africa. In fact, can you even name one third world Western nation? Something is definitely working with Western culture and something is definitely off with everybody else who couldn't keep up.

Oh, but some might say, hey middle easterners are caucasoid (i.e. caucasian) just like most Norwegians are caucasoid, but that region is third world. So it can't be all genetics. Sure. Who knows how much genes and genetic differences play into this. But culture certainly play a huge role too.

The entire African continent is third world, except South Africa. Wonder why. The British took over the fishing village of Hong Kong and turned it into a financial hub at a time when the rest of China and Asia was dirt poor. All of North America with the exception of Mexico is developed, hmm. All of Europe is developed. Oh, Dubai is a nice city, but who were the engineers who built that entire city? (hint: Western engineering contractors paid for with oil wealth). Conveniently, isolated Pacific islands of Australia and New Zealand are first world nations, while you can take your pick of Asian islands in the Pacific and look at their level of development. The trend here is obvious. The West is doing something right. They are good at nation building.

Oh sure, every civilization that got owned by the British Empire were respectable cultures, blah blah. But guess what, the British Empire was superior. They had weapons that required creativity, engineering and industrial prowess to mass produce. Meanwhile their adversaries were throwing rocks and shooting arrows. In fact, they also built the ship and used the navigation maps they developed to land in your country to colonize you, that was how far advanced they were. But you can't say the conquered were inferior, oh no, because it's demeaning and insulting. Well its the truth, lets start with that. The goal with being honest is to learn what happened and know what needs to be done to improve going forward.

With respect to social heirachy, it starts with facts on the ground. White people are seen as superior because the fact is, as a collective their societies and their nations are better built and better governed. Meanwhile Asian countries are poor and weak. It's the truth. You can't just hope for this social heirachy to level itself when one society is still massively superior to the other. People will always see these realities and this thus develops the perception of superiority of one over the other in their minds. So that effort to level the playing field starts at home. Asian countries need to do better for themselves in order to eliminate the gap between the social heirachy that exists. Its so all humans of all stripes can stand as equals.
