Are asian countries (Korea, China, Japan) getting better because of Confucianism ? This philosophy emphasizes greatly on hierarchy and how we have to respect it. As a consequence, asian countries are way more organized than the rest. They value education and respect their teachers. The downside is that asian seem less critical about their government than we are.

No it's a shit philosophy that hampers innovation.

>they actuall fell for the Confucianism meme

What is confucianism?
>>58068779
Yea innovation, that's what life is all about. Japan has synthetic tit balls, underskirt umbrellas and other nip wonders.
>>
it's the only thing that kept east asians from being only a little bit better than niggers. look at the asian countries where Confucianism didn't take hold, like in the Philippines. absolute shit holes. genetically asians are dog shit inferior, Confucianism at least elevated their culture to be somewhat respectable and unique to Westerners

The elders tend to get cocky in these societies and make you live by their regressive standards.

India and Japan's suicide rates should be enough to prove that this culture is fucked.

Respect people for who they are, not for how old they are.

Asians are very critical of their government. You're just so self-centered you can't see it

Well Koreans from the north certainly aren't.

I might be biased, since I mostly spoke with Japanese. Bu I felt they barely talked about politics at all. In France, we do it all the time. And when they do talk about it, they say very consensual stuff, like "ou government really isn't good, but there is a huge crisis" or "I understand freedom of speech, but sometimes it's better not to hurt other people".
Let's face it, education in Asia doesn't encourage critical thinking.

Confucianism hinders development. That's why China totally abolished it and it disappeared gradually in Japan and Korea.

Your post is Orientalist and Eurocentric.
>>
>>58069458
Just because they fear persecution doesn't mean they are not critical about CCP.
>>
no, it's a super shitty and archaic system

My university teacher isn't superior to me and there's no reason I should respect him for being a teacher. I should just respect him because he's a fellow human being and that is it.
>>
>>58069482
North Koreans can't be critical not aren't critical.
>>
>>58069667
This.
You can respect him as a human being or on his merits such as being smart and a good teacher.
But Confucianism forces you to "respect" (obey) people because of their titles or age not their merits.

Confucius was a faggot and Confucianism was a mistake. It is maybe as destructive to a country's development as communism.
>>
>>58069211
What do you know about confucianism? Indians all seem to be into cowism or pooism.
>>
>>58069667
>My university teacher isn't superior to me
I can't agree with that. When you're in class, your teacher deserves respect because he's the one who has the knowledge and it's his job to teach you stuff, whether or not you think it's retarded. When I see how students are in France, I wish we were more strict on these matters.

>>58070185
I've never met people like that. I've known teacher who stopped giving a fuck due to how retarded their students were and the parents were a bunch of assholes. But even though they didn't give a fuck, they were still doing their jobs. If we respected teacher a bit moe in the first place, they might be able to do a better job too.
>>
>>58069860
Indeed, and I can respect a good teacher if he's also a good person and cares about whether the students learn or not.

But a teacher that yells and bitches and treats his students like shit just because he thinks the title "teacher" grants him free passage should not be respected.

the obvious answer is a balance. "liberal" Confucianism if you will.

Confucianism delayed morden development of Korea and China.
Japan succeeded in Modernization because Confucianism had little influence on Japanese culture and Politics in the 19th.
Moral isn't confucianism nor christianity.
Moral is subordination and Mutual surveillance.

>>58068779
this. It's great for developping countries because it helps develop institutions and organize the country.
But once the country is developed the anti-"change/innovation" mindset get in the way.

The less developed your country is the more prevalent those fainéants are. You haven't seen any of them because you live in France. In shitty developing Asian countries these types get away with their laziness and incompetence with Confucianism.

Also French students don't respect their teachers because they can go to any university for free no matter how shitty their grades are. It does not stem from cultural differences.

Honestly it really doesn't fucking matter because if a society is doing "bad" something will be blamed by others to explain it then when it's doing good that very said thing will be used to explain why it's good conversely.


All the shit people say that's good about America is 9/10 the same shit people criticize about it on using the exact same wording.

Confucianism was a mistake imo. This stupid rhetoric of "respect him for he is older and wiser than you!" is bullshit.

No, I will only respect you if you have admirable traits, and show respect to me too.

The Joseon dynasty promoted neo-confucianism, destroying Buddhist influences before becoming the ultimate cucks by "tacitly" supporting the spread of Christianity in the 19th century. Inner court faction bickering over neo-confucianism stunted socio-economic growth. Compare this with Japan, where Buddhism and syncretic faiths were allowed to prosper and spread.

Its ideals of filial piety are good tho imo

That is why you must abuse your parents if they fail to conform to the high standards expected of elders. This happens very often nowadays.

I want the "Confucianism is responsible for X" meme to die. East Asian countries are only prosperous because of capitalism and American-led investment plans.
