    This is like my dad said about how Xi is sending youth into the countryside to farm like in Mao’s Cultural Revolution (he was talking about how there are incentive for the government to send educated people to do town development)

      send educated people to do town development

      god what an unimaginable dystopian hell. rather than just let their small towns rot alongside the people in them the government is forcing people to go and develop those areas with juicy incentives

      like imagine going and getting an education and then being able to choose to do socially valuable work that the government heavily encourages

      i’m gonna cry
