“Hard work is important. But eating bitterness will make you unhappy.”
Good advice. It says the guy sees no prospect of being able to afford marriage and a family so he’s said fuck it and is just maximizing his happiness in the now.
I see this a lot even here in the US. The big dream is too far out of reach so people are looking for something closer to home that will be okay.

The Party gets rich off the back of the working class. They're the only ones who are truly going to be doing well. For the rest, it is enough if they don't riot.
Anyone have an Archived link?
Thank you
Ah, the obedience they are so proud of.

Living that tiktok dream!
I guess the news is that China is also getting fucked up by the people leading it
More like our propaganda is deflecting. I do have solidarity with fellow Chinese workers tho
We all getting squeezed by the same typa person.
Treating the youth like trash is part of the human tradition. The WW2 generation sacrificed their kids to a pointless meat grinder in Vietnam. Those kids, in turn, decided to cash out the entire western world and leave a decaying husk behind for their kids. And so the world turns.
The worse we treat young people, the worse they will pass on to future generations. China has done some pretty horrible things to young people in the last 3-4 generations. Maybe much worse than anything the west has subjected it’s children to. They are paying it forward, as is the tradition.
The main point of the article is that Mao tortured xi’s dad and sent xi to shovel shit in the country. He is putting todays kids through what he thinks they deserve.
How dare you bring non-propagandized facts in here!
