Strong contrast to certain shitty countries that tie more debt to education instead
Have they fixed their cheating problem?
Pretty sure that’s more like a human problem
if everyone cheats it’s not a problem
Cheating is a sign on ambition and resourcefulness. Sometimes it takes more effort to cheat than studying.
They really don’t need more graduates from the university, so many of them struggle to find any job and end up as delivery drivers https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/ce8nlpy2n1lo
On the other hand, I think the rise of fascism in the US is directly connected to its growing anti-intellectualism and cuts to education. Overall it’s a good thing to have an overeducated population.
Up to a certain point or excluding certain topics I would argue:
If more and more understand the short comings of any current system due to education I would assume there will a growing demand for change to get rid of the shortcomings. And thinking back of how the Hong Kong Situation was handled it looks more like a top-down “My way or no way!” ruling style I don’t see coping well with well educated citizens wanting change.
Might be wrong though. Just a thought before my morning coffee.
I mean, “Let’s not educate people so they’re ignorant to how they’re being exploited, and we don’t want to have to beat them down” is certainly a take. I guess maybe you can see Cypher as the people’s hero if you squint hard enough.
But in my opinion, the more people who understand the shortcomings of a system, the more pressure there will be to fix it, and that’s how progress happens. It’s slow and sometimes bloody, but the alternative is even worse.
The Chinese state seems to frequently chase vacuous milestones to boast to the world about while the actual problems China and its people face go unaddressed. Sure that describes a lot of states, but China in particular stands out to me in how dogged they are to gain face.
The saving/gaining face is deeply rooted in East Asian societies because they are collectivist societies and has strong roots in Confucianism.
Shitibs really will find a way to portray anything China does as negative huh
Fuck off shitcon, nobody is talking to you.
Cope harder lib. How does it feel crying about other countries’ better education just because you can’t get any?
Also what does “shitcon” mean? Misspelled something?
Education isn’t just about job prospects. You need a well educated populace in order to inoculate them from mis- and disinformation. It also further protects democracy, but that isn’t on China’s to-do list, I’m guessing.
Educated people are hard to control. They don’t want that unless the CCP are gonna hand the state back to the people—they wont.
See: American education system
Could be an euphism, strong education as in strong control over education
Or just a heavy focus on technical skills and a carefully controlled narrative on any sort of social studies. Smart people can also fall for propaganda if they are told it’s the truth since childhood
Good point, I’ve heard of STEM institutions of having student populations falling victim of that
What sort of topics?
Oh, so China. Well I guess that’s pretty on brand.
