Notes:
Besides the gaokao prep starting from middle school, and taking at least 12-14 hours a hour to prep for it each day and it being mentally strenuous and seemingly decisive to your career,
the narrator talks about how the Gaokao varies per province and apparently
depending on how high your city/province’s GDP is, it may be easier compared to other provinces
Other than that, though, he talks more about societal issues rather than political ones, so I think he’s at worst, a good-faith Chinese lib, even considering his reddit account, which has little political activity…
Also, I’ve heard there are other comparable hard exams which are not necessarily hard as the Gaokao, in the comments, such as Brazil and India, thoughts on that as well
To any libs around here:
If you lemmy libs want to wander on here, I’ll politely tell you which instance you’re in and tell you to go back your mother’s skirts…
As long as they can support a family on a wage without a college education, this is fine.
