China’s education system also suppresses innovation while rewarding imitation. Although some Chinese schools conduct innovative experimental education, they remain few and have little impact.From childhood to adulthood, Chinese students are subjected to rote learning—memorizing and obeying rather than questioning or thinking independently. Thus, while Chinese students and researchers excel at replication and refinement of existing work, they are poor at true creativity.

"The reason is that the Nobel committee is racist and Eurocentric."

"The reason is that Europe is the center of all civilization and ~~racially~~ culturally superior."

They really think they're being so clever when they swap "race" and "culture" and act like that makes the same arguments acceptable and not at all racist.
