The west like the preach enlightenment ideas like critical thinking but never actually uphold it. Anyone with a brain (like me) would have realised that the claim that western countries are enlightend is a scam because they never given liberty and freedom to their colonies aswell as the working class despite plently of enlightenment philosophers opposing colonialism (Voltaire is not one of them). Chinese people who argued that westernization would lead to modernization are to be frank, completly retarded. They forget that during the Industrial revolution the common man lived no different or arguably worse than a Qing dynasty commoner because of horrible working conditions and no workers rights (Remember the British government did nothing about child labour) and that only changed when the workers started to fight back.
