They’ve always been high IQ, hardworking, disciplined. Yet they could never compete on the world stage until recently. What was the catalyst?

they have never been able to compete on the world stage and never will, nobody likes a chink, we sent them a whole bunch of money and some got rich though, but literally we just sent them the money, they wouldn't have it otherwise

Because azns suck at liberal arts and we needed to guide them. It’s the exact same thing as Japan and Korea. Unfortunately, liberal arts will be our undoing.

Good question. I think modern agriculture is a big factor. They use to have famines galore over there, and even the people who didn't die were often mentally and physically stunted.

China can modernize faster than you can grow pubes. The Qin Dynasty only lasted 15 years, but it instituted a billion reforms that lasted forever.

Informative poast- just wiki'd Qin Dynasty. Wasn't aware of its importance.

I am not an expert on any of this, but I think the Tang Dynasty is also really fascinating. It's often held out as the "best governmental structure that ever existed" among geeks who are into things like that. The Judge Dee novels are set in Tang courts, and they are easy reads while being very informative.

I also think it's worth knowing what Chinese people learn about their own country before we draw assumptions.

All the smart richmos fled to taiwan during WWII, leaving the illiterate peasants in the mainland

Took awhile to build from scratch

That pales in significance to Mao turning the place into a death cult for decades. Students were literally eating their teachers in a sign of revolutionary purity.
