Hukou is a record keeping system for Chinese households. Its a civil register.
Every time the Indians project onto China, we can uncover horrors you didnt realize about the Caste system if you read between the lines.

The caste system in China is real though. Nong literally have lesser legal rights in cities than Shi do, under the Hukou system.

@jokieliu @andivperedpowr2 说实话,你们说的“社会信用分”我们还真挺想要一个真的,在中国碰见不讲道理的人,警察只能沟通调解,不会动用暴力,导致警察走后这些低素质人还会骚扰你,所以要真有这个,社会环境还能好点

I understand it’s funny that Indians are inventing the whole weird shi nong gong shang Chinese caste system thing, but some of y’all are laughing at Indians while believing in the social credit system. It’s a good time to reflect and realize most of the anti-China stuff is actually the same level of crap.

Putting aside that imperial China’s social stratification was different from India’s, are you guys, like, forgetting 1949? The old social order was pretty publicly & violently destroyed by the CPC 75 years ago. Did India not get that memo?

@59Tankie @BattlementLK 对,毛主席将西藏从超级加强版种姓印度,解放成了人人平等,旧西藏十分野蛮,用人皮作鼓,用人血作画,甚至还会杀婴儿,所以现在西藏人称呼毛主席为“文殊菩萨转世”,解放军是“金珠玛米”意思是打碎枷锁的兵

I'm actually in awe at Indians managing to mass psychosis themselves into creating and believing in an entirely fake caste system for China. Pretending that it matters in China. Making tweets in Chinese talking about it and pretending to be Chinese people.

The obliviously coordinated propaganda that says the current-day China has an Indian-style caste system is so unreal that most Chinese don’t even understand what it is trying to say. Similar to a social credit system. The first time I heard about it from a French family who was simply curious about China, I thought they were asking about how credit cards worked in China.
The so-called high caste Shi means officials in the ancient China and feudal society. They were the ones that passed the imperial civil servant exams to enter the public sector. And the viral picture with Chinese words that is supposed to show how informed some posts are perfectly revealing that these propaganda pieces are manipulating the public with unrelated visuals: The slide literally says traditional Chinese social hierarchy. Thanks to the contemporary revolutions in China, feudal slavery and lawlessness is no longer the case in China.
Moreover, for the ancient feudal system, even academically, the pyramid is also an oversimplification because even though the business owners and traders were not valued much by Confucian thoughts, they were still very influential because of their impact on the market and people’s daily life. That won’t place Shang at the bottom of the pyramid. Moreover, the emperor is also held accountable by and should be placed under a higher power called the heavenly rule, which is aligned with the well-being of the ordinary people (Baixing, hundred surnames). Tianzi itself means the son of the heaven, and they were overthrown or replaced very often. That’s why dynasties after dynasties appeared as the previous ones caused enough pain for its people and some revolted. The emperor’s legitimacy can be compromised because of ineffective governance.
Again, it is shocking to see so many similar lies based on one identical erroneous narrative. It is completely coordinated.

@Sorsacerba 写在中国宪法里面的,“以工农联盟为基础”,所以中国革命是“工”“农”两个种姓联合起来推翻了“士”,至于“商”因为种姓太低被排除在外,所以现在应该是工农士商。对上了✅

Some Indian netizens calling China’s ancient “Four Occupations” system “China’s caste system,” and believing that calling a Chinese person a “merchant” is insulting, has become a trending topic on Chinese social media. Many Chinese netizens are playfully making fun of the mistake, finding the comparison quite ridiculous.
For context, the “Four Occupations (士农工商)” was China’s traditional ranking of professions: scholars/officials at the top (valued for governance and learning), followed by farmers (seen as the foundation of society), artisans, and merchants at the bottom (viewed as less productive since they traded rather than created).
In reality, China’s Four Occupations and India’s caste system are quite different. India’s caste system was deeply rooted in religious texts and seen as a divine, lifelong order determined by birth. It often restricted marriage, dining, and social interactions between groups, with very limited possibilities for changing one’s status.
China’s Four Occupations, by contrast, was primarily a social ranking of different professions rather than a rigid, hereditary system. There were no religious rules treating it as unchangeable by blood, and no strict laws banning intermarriage or shared community life between groups.
A key difference was social mobility. Through the imperial examination system, talented individuals from farming or merchant families could study, pass the exams, and rise to become respected scholars and officials. Many famous figures, such as Fan Zhongyan and Ouyang Xiu, came from modest backgrounds and achieved high positions. The old saying “In the morning a farmer’s son, in the evening a guest in the emperor’s hall” reflected this real possibility of upward movement.
Even merchants, who were ranked lower in theory because their work was seen as less foundational, could improve their family’s standing. It was common for successful merchant families to educate their children and transition into scholarly circles over time.
Today, China’s traditional occupational ranking no longer exists as an institution — it effectively ended with the abolition of the imperial exams in 1905. Modern society emphasizes equality and values professions based on skills and contributions. While caste continues to influence aspects of life like marriage and social customs in parts of India, the Chinese system was far more flexible and has long since evolved.
In short:
Caste represented a birth-based destiny that was very difficult to change. China’s Four Occupations was a practical ranking of occupations that allowed movement between roles. The two are fundamentally distinct, much like comparing traffic regulations to a system of permanent segregation.
