    They could be talking about cultural effects either.

    Like you can rightly say that Londoners have no empathy compared to sheffielders. But you probably couldn’t find a rigorous study on it.

      I mean if you live in England and want to say stuff like that go ahead. You probably know your country better than me. These people most likely have never been to China and know nothing of the language and culture and are just citing a shitty study to justify their preconceived bias.

        Tbh i think you’re right. They are probably just bigots. But it’s now interesting to keep playing devil’s advocate…

        Do you not know some places where the culture is now empathetic then other places? London versus Sheffield us just a very well known example. In general the cultures in different cities have different levels of empathy.

        And IMO if the typical Londoner lived in Sheffield for a few years, he would start being more empathetic, and vice versa.

          yeah no, don’t play devil’s advocate for racists. It does literally no good, and just wastes everyone’s time.
