Reply to comment by suppordel in TIL that in Chinese Folk Religion, a mortal human being could ascend into godhood not through the decisions of a clergy/church, but by the sheer number of people who believe that their extraordinary achievements led to apotheosis, which forced Confucian/Taoists clerics to canonize a person as a God. by Khysamgathys
Then of course you don't worship. I was talking about communists only.

Truth, brother. Kids on Reddit are so sheltered that they don't know what life is like in the poorer countries. They never do backbreaking farming without machinery so they just don't understand. They should go talk to immigrants in the Western world to see how much they prefer capitalist factory jobs over the traditional agricultural jobs.

Reply to comment by TheNightIsLost in TIL: Zhu Youcheng is the only emperor in Chinese history, to be married to one wife and remain faithful to her, having no concubines.

It's a southern dynasty, so of course they would be run by incompetents and assholes who put themselves above all else.
