In cultural studies, there's this idea of Rice culture vs wheat culture. And it argues that: Cultures historically built on wheat cultures tend to produce more individualism, originality, innovation because wheat doesn't need intense group activity in order to grow and this has a massive social implications that will effect a culture for centuries. Example of countries built on wheat culture, Germany, America, UK. Rice cultures are the opposite, less individualism, less originality, less creativity and therefore lack of innovation. The reason for this is that rice farms needs intense cooperation with your neighbor. The unfortunate side effect is that it will create a shame culture which will effect an individual person's ability to be more individualistic and creative. the fear of being shamed for being too unique and not part of the strict social norm will affect a person's, individuality, confidence and inventiveness, and this will envitably trickle down to future generations. China is a hyper industrialized nation, they have no excuse for their lack of originality, creativity and innovation. The culture is the problem. The lasting cultural effects of building the foundation of your civilization on rice crops will rob future generations of their own individuality and creativity.
😅It seems that you know history very well, so do you know how Germany, Japan and even the United States did before they became industrial powers? It doesn't matter if it is a white cat or a black cat, as long as it can catch mice, it is a good cat. Your grandfather did this, your father did it, and then you tell others that the Chinese cannot do it now because you are not capable enough to compete. Oh, the staple food in northern China is wheat, and in the south is rice, because the Chinese climate is fuck like that. Stupid, do you know geography? Or do you know China? I can draw a map of the world from memory without bragging that I know the whole world. who do you think You Are?
@Fanboy Insta I'm not saying that Asian countries can't innovate. What I'm saying is that Asian countries are slower in terms of progress and innovation compared to the west. Why do you think that europeans won the Technological race and colonized the world despite the fact that Asian civilizations were created earlier than European civilizations?
@@user-us4mc7ej3c I disagree and agree. I disagree at the statement that the lack of individualism in certain countries is solely caused by authoritarian governments. Like I said, the starting crops of a society will have a profound domino effect on a culture. And I agree that authoritarian government will cause a great reduction in individualism.

Good point, however I would argue that a totalitarian communist government is the root cause for this lack of individualism
