X eleventyNever ever ever visiting china
Disturbingly sounds like what some people are advocating for in the USThe takeaway is that the government is in control of everything, absolving anyone of any responsibility. They also don't want initiative, and initiative plus responsibility ensures that people take care of the world around them
I watched this video some time ago:
Several others from those two also bring the culture differences into a clear focus, and they make it understandable from a western perspective.
The takeaway is that the government is in control of everything, absolving anyone of any responsibility. They also don't want initiative, and initiative plus responsibility ensures that people take care of the world around them. If a Chinese man sees a child dying on the side of the road, he man will not take the child to the hospital because then he has to pay. The lack of personal responsibility is also why the idea of a product warranty is a foreign concept; it implies that you have responsibility after the product leave your control.
That said, the folks cooking the toxic mush have no concern for anyone else, and it's a perfectly normal attitude to have. Just accept it and move on.
What an incredibly fresh way to do a video! Fantastic. The message really hits home though.
I was actually looking for another specific video by these guys, a bit longer though, where they talked about a light bulb in an elevator that never got replaced. Everyone complained about the bulb, but nobody felt inclined to take the initiative to do it themselves. It was always someone else's job.
You can already see this already at large political events. Conservative leaning events clean up after themselves, and at worst, all the trash is all brought to overflowing cans. At left leaning events trash is everywhere. And that's an understatement!
It's not fake. Here is a vid from someone who actually lived in China until recently. Apparently only a problem on some street side eateries.
