Kinda sucks that this stuff still hasn't been addressed.

I've personally known people that have been told that they are "too old" for things like jobs or uni admissions in China. I've seen the job postings that recruiters put on apps like wechat as well and some of them will even say things like "female wanted" or "female European only."

The vid also mentions 996, which is technically illegal but it happens all the time. Know a few ppl who used to work this schedule.

I think in terms of things like infrastructure (e.g. high speed rail, etc.) China is doing pretty well. But when it comes to things like ageism, racism, sexism, and other forms of discrimination they still have quite a way to go.

to be fair, a lot of things are better than sliced bread, including China
