    The handful of comments trying to defend this are really reaching, for example:

    If those kids’ parents are at home, then the “teacher” doesn’t have to visit their house to teach them. No matter how poor and low-educated a village is, never will a teacher be sent to teach kids to brush teeth. I’m talking about a normal Han race village.

    I remember how, as a kid, the dentist would have to reiterate to me how to brush my teeth, despite my parents having already taught me, because kids are dumb and sometimes it takes more than one try (and person) to get things through their heads.

    I'm glad my mind has been opened up to the fact I was experiencing colonialism.

      Growing up, Colgate used to run these ads (Propaganda?!1?!) with a song that said when you should brush your teeth with Colgate. It stuck to me, I sing the fucking song almost everytime I have to brush my teeth. Am I a victim of brainwashing?
