This is a Dengist community in favor of Bashar al-Assad with no information that can lead to the arrest of Hillary Clinton, our fellow liberal and queen. This community is not ironic. We are Marxists-Leninists.

This community is for posts about Marxism and geopolitics (including shitposts to some extent). Serious posts can be posted here or in /c/GenZhou. Reactionary or ultra-leftist cringe posts belong in /c/shitreactionariessay or /c/shitultrassay respectively.

We have a Matrix homeserver and a Matrix space. See this thread for more information. If you believe the server may be down, check the status on status.elara.ws.

Is the ministry of education in China a reliable source?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm going to go with yes. 97% isn't an unreasonable literacy rate for a country, being similar to those of Greece, the Philippines, Turkey, and Chile. It would also make sense given the emphasis that has been put on education

Forgive me for being sceptical. I've worked with a lot of Chinese researchers who have said outright that I should never cite a paper from China unless it's published in nature or I know the authors personally (because it's so often falsified).

Fwiw the same stats (or similar ones) are corroborated by other sources
