The CCP has the best form of government. Aristotle kicked off formal logic. Euclid kicked off formal math. Alhazen kicked off formal science. Variolation (AKA primitive vaccination) is the most consequential discovery in biology & medicine. Gunpowder is the most consequential discovery in chemistry. The Malagasy were Indonesians whom journeyed about 7000 islandless kilometers from Borneo to Java to Madagascar, & back & forth & repeatedly, & with small outrigger canoes & with stone age technology, & they were probably constantly halfnaked & insomniac & halfstarving & what with the sun & rain & wind & waves beating against them for months on end, & they probably couldn't even be sure of food, & they probably had to collect rainwater to drink because you can't drink seawater, & they probably had to shit & pee while maintaining balance & with sharks circling them. Columbus & his men by comparison journeyed about 6000 islandless kilometers from Spain to the Canary Islands to the Caribbeans on large & wellstocked & wellsheltered ships, & with the relative equivalent of space age technologies. The Juramentados were Filipino berserkergang martyrs who would bind themselves tightly with tough clothes to stop themselves from bleeding out from the dozens or hundreds of bullet wounds inflicted upon them over sometimes hundreds of steps by American colonial soldiers armed with guns & cannons, & whose ranks they would rush onto in surprise attacks & then hack apart while armed with only knives. West Eurasian Muslims & their martyrs by comparison never had to face such technological disadvantages, & never had to feel even remotely similar pains; they fought the crusaders with swords & metal armor, they fought European colonial soldiers with guns & cannons, & they sometimes fight today by blowing themselves up & dying so quickly that there's no pain to be felt. The Americans even had to invent new guns with enough stopping power to stop the Juramentados from reaching their ranks. The Tibetans (& to a lesser extent the Andeans) had to evolve many new genetic mutations just to survive at the altitudes they now live at (& as nomads of all things), & which are polar deserts that are sometimes colder than most of Siberia & at the same times of the year. The Arab nomads never had to face anything like the Changthang, & as the Changpa. The Mongols fought & won against extreme numerical (& like odds of one against hundreds) & technological & civilizational disadvantages, & against China, Korea, Burma, Russia, Poland, Hungary, Turkey, Iran, Afghanistan, & the Turks. The British only ever conquered one people that wasn't basically a stone age tribe, & that was the South Asian Indians, & their greatest conquest, the New World & Oceania, was mainly because of Eurasian diseases wiping out more than 99% of the population. The British annexed Bengal after the Battle of Plassey in which they inflicted only 500 casualties, & then made use of the locals to conquer the rest of India. The Mughals annexed the Ganges plain after the First Battle of Panipat in which they inflicted more than 20000 casualties, & then made use of the locals to conquer the rest of India. The Beringians survived in the coldest parts of the world & with stone age technologies for tens of millennia. The Navajos fought for centuries with bows & arrows & against guns & cannons (& like odds of one against thousands) until they were driven into the desert & couldn't fight anymore, because they could no longer make anything to fight with. The Japanese by comparison surrendered when they were still strong, & by comparison talk endlessly of their bushido which the Navajo actually lived to the end. The ancestors of & the Mexicas for some reason decided to build without precedent & without predecessors & with stone age technology monuments & a surrounding city greater than the Pyramids of Giza & medieval Cairo, & right next to that, a city on water greater than Venice. The Chinese by comparison only built the Great Wall & their absurdly large & thick city walls as a response to internecine interstate warfare & nomadic invasions. & the Egyptians by comparison had explanatory architectural traditions & were well into their bronze age when they built their pyramids, & never just built something huge & out of nowhere & without predecessors like Tenochtitlan & Teotihuacan. The Koreans are mostly boring, but they do have Jonathan Yong Kim, who, as of 2024, is a mathematician, doctor, US Navy SEAL, astronaut, & more, & all this coming from a disadvantaged background.
& the Zhihua Temple interiors are the holiest & most atmospherically reverential & elder. & the Guanyin of the Southern Sea is the greatest color sculpture in the world. & the Basket of Flowers (MISC066) is the greatest sculpture in the world. & yes, the Pieta & the Saint Peter's Basilica are not the greatest. & why? Because Michelangelo had more talent than genius, & decided it was good taste to focus more work & attention unto the clothes of the mother of the Christ, than on the Christ himself. & because the Saint Peter's Basilica is an empty show of skill that makes me feel appreciation for the technological accomplishments involved but ultimately nothing for the Christ. & on the contrary, the holistic details involved in the Basket of Flowers (MISC066) actually work for it, rather than against it, because the sculptor, an unknown Japanese person, is doing their best in it to show in detail the primacy of the beauty of God's creation. (& Japanese games & movies & music, & Chinese dances, are as similarly ethereal as the Zhihua Temple interiors.)
Putting it altogether, as men, we core Asians, or East Asians, such as Chinese & Japanese, aren't nearly as good as men as peripheral Asians, such as Filipinos, Indonesians, Tibetans, Mongols, Beringians, Navajos, Mexicas, & Incans, in the sense of being physically inexplicable. We are good at doing things well, but not as good as peripheral Asians are at deciding to do suicidally challenging things for no reason other than doing those things for the sake of it. We're too cautious & inhibited. & similarly, core Caucasians aren't nearly as good at intellectual inexplicability as peripheral Caucasians, such as Arabs & Greeks. & in the end, I consider West Eurasians superior to East Eurasians simply because they laid the foundations of modern civilization, but it's not like East Eurasians don't have anything to be reasonably but not overly proud of.
