WHY India will never be like China

■ Indian society rewards hot air talking.

■ Chinese society rewards non-creative hard working AND creative hard working.

Not everyone can be really creative in the dazzling meaning of the word *creative* but everyone can make a real effort, which is already quite honorable.

Consequently, the Chinese Confucian society rewards the aristocratic men (capable of playful exploration, creativity, inventivity and discovery) and the timocratic men (capable of upholding justice) BUT ALSO rewards the fake timocratic men (only interested by an appearance of justice but capable of social sophistication), the plutocratic men (motivated by profit-seeking and commanding a good intellect) and the democratic men (motivated by hedonism, lex talionis, tribal affinities and by the senses-perception) inasmuch that they are AWARE of their real places and contribute earnestly with what they can.

There is no shame if one cannot be at once a timocratic man or an aristocratic man. The epistemological Journey is a lifelong process.

The comparative results are obvious after 45 years.

THE CHINESE RULERS HAVE PREPARED THE CHINESE POPULATION FROM THE 1950s BY INCREASING THEIR EPISTEMOLOGICAL LEVELS ACROSS THE WHOLE SOCIETY HENCE CHINA WAS ABLE TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF BECOMING A MANUFACTURING CENTER (as a first step) HAVING STARTED IN THE 1980s.

Apart from their respective populations sizes of about the same order of magnitude, *there is nothing in common between China and India* Except when this delusional rapprochement is spinned by some perfidious Western presstitute.

I also believe that the Indians in general and the Indian upper class in particular are very receptive to the utter bs spinned by the Westerners. It’s not the case as long as the Chinese (from all walks of life) are concerned.
