Uh, NO.

This from Time.com:

In the week since Wang Yue, the two-year-old girl better known as Yue Yue, was hit by not one but two vans, then ignored by 18 people before finally being rescued by a scrap picker, the Chinese public has agonized over how such a thing could happen, how the suffering of a helpless innocent could be ignored by so many. Several explanations have emerged, ranging from fears of legal liability to a belief that economic reforms have led to a decline in the sort of selfless behavior promoted in under Mao.

This is exactly why I have a fear of getting hurt, sick or attacked in China. People won't help you; actually they might mug you while you're down. Maoism did not result in any selfless behavior for such a thing to be in decline. Maoism made people scramble for themselves, lest they end up with ... scraps.

Me: Hey shut up! Like sustainability, medicine and science.

Nothing!

Nothing gives me a worse first impression of someone than: lots of makeup

And that's the thing, she concludes.

And that's the thing, she concludes. Just because things happen slow doesn't mean you'll be ready for them. If they happened fast, you'd be alert for all kinds of suddenness, aware that speed was trump. "Slow" worked on an altogether different principle, on the deceptive impression that there's plenty of time to prepare, which conceals the central fact, that no matter how slow things go, you'll always be slower.
