Mao always claimed that he wanted to be a teacher, which is no difference to Confucius; only the stuff inside their brains that makes them difference.
At least, this guy, Cecil Ho, admitted unknowingly that he has been fucked-up since his youth, typical to most of the KMT folks.
I grew up from Taiwan and have known a lot of friends who were KMT related sharing a common factor, a fucked-up brain! At a time of peace and abundance, it is completely OK that you have a fucked-up brain，nevertheless, at a time that when the majority of the country were suffered from hungry and injustice, your fucked-up brains would make the situation worse, this was why some of those fucked-up brains were eliminated from earth, simply to save the majority.
In Chinese, we called it "一路哭不如一家哭"!

关于脑残和“一路不如一家哭”
leeliang 书信 2022 年 10 月 26 日
毛总说要当老师，这和孔子没什么区别；只有大脑内部的东西才能使他们不同。
至少，何。塞西尔这个家伙在不知不觉中承认，他从小脑子就被搞砸了，
这是大多数国民党人的典型特征。
我在台湾长大，认识很多与国民党有关的朋友，他们有一个共同点，就是 脑子被搞砸了！
在和平与富足的时候，你有一个搞砸的大脑是完全可以的，
但在这个国家大多数人遭受饥饿和不公正的时候，你搞砸的大脑会让情况变得更糟，
这就是为什么一些该死的大脑被从地球上淘汰，只是为了拯救大多数人。
在中文里，我们称之为“一路哭不如一家哭”！

During my younger years I shared an office with an Indian Guy. He was religious and a vegetarian.What set him apart was that he was a chess Master, and he easily defeated everybody in our geographic region. Politically he was somewhat of a pacifist. He was not of the aristocracy class who would be trained to be assertive from a young age. That is not the culture of India, but only of the rich aristocratic class. A doctor of my wife's was one of that class. The cultural difference is obvious.
My Indian friend was very respectful of Confucius culture. At the time I also was good friends with the fourth best Chinese Go player in the USA. He was very active marching for 釣魚台. We all held very dim views of Mao who was a traitor to our thousands of years of glorious Confucius culture and at the time a sidekick of the Soviets.
Please do not put Mao and our Confucius culture in the same sentence. You know full well Mao wanted to eliminate Confucism!

Many years ago, I received a phone call from an Indian Professor who was teaching sociology at Simon Frazer University, asking me to give a lecture in his University. I agreed. At the time I did not know he was Indian. When I arrived, I found out that he was Indian. Before I arrived, he had already another guest, a professor from Harvard. As soon as I arrived, he asked the Harvard guy to give up the guest room to me and asked him to move to a smaller room. That guy was older than I was. He protested that that he was there earlier and he was older. I said that I could sleep in the smaller room. But the Indian professor insisted that I should sleep in the big room. At the dinner time, the Indian professor bought a big fresh Salman, and cooked for us. We each got some and started eating. After we each finished our food, the Harvard guy asked very timidly that if he could eat the rest in the master plate. The Indian professor said he could have it if Dongping did not want it. The Harvard guy protested that why he always put Dongping ahead of him. The Indian guy said that should be the way. When I found out that the Indian Professor was not teaching about China, I asked him why he invited me to give a lecture in his school. He said that he wanted to find out why China and India, the two ancient civilizations in the world, one produced a Mao Zedong that changed China and the world, the other produced a Gandhi who sucked up to imperialists and refused to fight back violently. One was respected by his people. The other was ignored by his own people, but promoted by the imperialists as a model for others.
We Chinese should always be proud of our culture, because our culture have produced a Chairman Mao. Indians became CEOs for the imperialists because that was what they were: the running dogs of the imperialist. What are CEOs？ In Chinese Culture, 不过是工头或帐房而已。我们中国人有独立的人格，是不屑做别人的帐房和工头的。

""" The Overseas Indians are doing much better than Overseas Chinese in English speaking countries.""" in my experiences, all the indians i interacted here in america, they all seem to look up to chinese. that include the top indian buddhist, and many indian pingpong players often tell me that "u changed my life", after i give them some tips(which most american can understand).
my conclusion is that americans know chinese are better, but since they are told to hate chinese, so, for now, indians would do.
btw, china and india's culture is fengjian. america has no culture.

Who is in charge of the world? An Illustration of the Importance of culture!A friend of mine has forwarded me the following imagined conversation. Biden, Putin and Xi were arguing on who’s in charge of the world? The US , Russia or China? Without any conclusion , they turned to “Narendra Modi”, the Indian Prime Minister and asked him who’s in charge of the world?
Modi replied, “All I know is:
Google CEO is an Indian. Microsoft CEO is an Indian. Adobe CEO is an Indian. Net App CEO is an Indian. MasterCard CEO is an Indian. DBS CEO is an Indian. Novartis CEO is an Indian. Diageo CEO is an Indian. SanDisk CEO is an Indian. Harman CEO is an Indian. Micron CEO is an Indian. Palo Alto Networks CEO is an Indian. Reckitt Benckiser CEO is an Indian. IBM CEO is an Indian. Britain’s Chancellor is an Indian. Britain’s Home Secretary is an Indian. Ireland’s Prime minister is an Indian . And the American Vice President is Indian .
So who’s running the World ?
The above joke is very interesting and is (arguably) based on facts. The Overseas Indians are doing much better than Overseas Chinese in English speaking countries. This I subscribe, is mostly because the educated Indians have acclimatized to or have assimilated the English/American cultures.
Another reason, and I have written this in one of my blogs, is because of different communication style. Communication assertiveness was found to be the factor that enabled more Indianss to be admitted to the executive suites. To a large degree, these ethnic differences in assertiveness can be attributed to culture. “Strongly influenced by Confucianism, East Asian cultures are characterized by humility, conformity, and interpersonal harmony.”
It is precisely for the same reasons that the Chinese have done well in their native China while the overseas Indians are doing well in English speaking western countries.
Both countries were comparable in gdp per capita terms in 1990. In 2021, China is almost 5.4 times richer than India on the nominal and 2.58 times richer as measured in the GDP ppp method.
IMHO, cultural awareness and adoptation is the difference!
