Confucianism is Feudalism

In the late Bronze age, all the cultures started to write down their tales, aka religions, the East Asians are writing down their Rites, which if you read much about it, it is just plain feudalism and classism.  And Confucius was resurrecting the Rites of Zhou.

If you are from a class that read and write, you are supposed to follow the social order as layout in the ancient text, because only by obeying your lord, and stay in your station, the society will have order.  And if you cannot read and write, you are a savage anyway.

And after thousand of years of promoting being subservient, and casting out those who don't, you wonder why East Asians are so... subdued.
