No, every student should have three jobs and a mortgage. Anything else proves the economy is in shambles!

Just publish two numbers that includes / excludes students?

It gets even more reasonable if you read the full quote from Fu Linghui, which Reuters decided to omit..

Not sure if you read it already, but you're absolutely right deng-salute

"The college students put their focus on gaining knowledge at campuses while the public holds different opinions on whether we should include these college students in employment analysis before their graduation. Also, we need research to extend the age period of defining 'youths' as the young people are now having longer schooling years," he added.

I hate this bullshit me versus them attitude everybody's bringing over from Reddit.

Did you stop to consider that just because somebody is a member of an instance doesn't necessarily mean they are part of the issues with the instance. I didn't go stalk this users comments or posts but it seems egregious to just see 'hexbear' and assume that user is on par with your concerns.

I'm part of lemmy.zip, which as I understand it, has a lot more trans folks than other instances. Does that make me trans? Yes: by your bullshit preliminary assumption policy. Meanwhile, I'm not.
