through out chines ehistory.
from confucius time, it's always meaning those well educated. you read those history books, starting with simaqian's, illiterates were not counted. when song and ming dynasty, elites totally were dominated by educated rich, poor farmers no chance at all, they used to have one: through military. but this raod no longer avialable as song/ming looked down on armies.
when ming/song emperors wanted to collect more taxes, they faced angry voices" don't take profits away from people!", but here "people" meaned only those in power, the elite class who were landlords, he backbone of chinese feudal society.
1919, 1989, those students again didn't really represent people's voices. even nowadays, even after college students are so massive, goakao still means a lot, just look at recent news about gaokao.
when mid 90's in shunyi a female BJ student was killed, students went out to protest. when the famous sun zhigang case happened, whole society talked about it. government had to react to that.
but what baout cases before that? shunyi was a dangerous place , so many crimes before that! before sun, there're numerous similar cases, but nobody cared, why? because they were not educated elites!
the famous bullet train collision happend almost the same time as one pasenger bus iicdent, similar number of people died, but society only tlaked about the former case. why? i commented here then. only becasue those in the bus were mostly farmers, well bullet train of course usually were taken by middle class and rich people.
when some cities tried to enroll more rural immirant kids to school, city parents went nuts" no, no. no. our schools should only serve city people"!
in the annual march political meetings, there were always voices doubting rural kids going to college "what for? rural ones always belongto countryside".
and chinese protest america's racial discrimination problem? look in hte mirror!
sorry, educated elites,you like to call youself the soul of china, but you don't represnt china, because even as much as china hasdeveloped, it's still a developing nation. its main task is still to make those silent majority richer an dmore importantly, havinga voice in the society.
sorry, educated elites, you opinions don't matter that much.
as china history ilustates, the real deciding factor is always the silent majority, even they have always been overlooked through out hisotry.
until their voices heard, their grievences addressed, then maybe someone can be called he soul of china
