I try to understand them but doing so it like attempting to solve a complex mathematical problem that a great scientist is struggling with. I wonder sometimes whether they are from an alien galaxy and have landed here in order to study human beings or to extract our labor to provide resources to their home planet. When I see the accomplishments of east asians and europeans compared to the paltry contributions of the other nations on earth it makes me believe we are seeing the divergence between two species.
Think about it for a second. Native Americans lived in teepees and did rain dances while these two groups have created nuclear weapons and put man on the moon. Africans haven't even developed the ability to consistently create fires. How insane is the difference.
That's not to say I'd want to be a part of these groups. They work too hard and I prefer the easy and free life as a hunter gatherer. I refuse to be a part of a nation that creates a draft, prisons, and worships women but I still admire their work and wonder how they developed so differently from the other tribes on this planet.
