What is it?

A mistake

In China
>Hey guys, Confucianism is getting too fucking mystical and religious with gods and shit. Confucius' didn't talk about the nature of religion. Let's go back to focusing on its Social Philosophy aspects, g?
But when it came to Japan and Korea:
>LUUUUL CLASS FREEZE! KEKEKEKE EVERYONE! REMAIN IN YOUR SOCIAL CLASS.

Huh?but confucianism was always about hierarchy and levels of submission, no? Everything has a place. Everyone has role so to speak, some being small, but others being larger.

>>3078453
Basically Confucianism without the religious aspects.

>Confucianism.
>Class freeze.
Oh yes, this is why Confucianism valued education so that niggers who are able can enter government service, which consequently formed a Scholar-Bureaucrat Aristocracy in later dynasties. Yes, class freeze.

No. Confucianism was big about respecting heirarchies, sure: son to father, subject to ruler, man to heaven.

But it wasn't autismal about "this class belongs to here and stays put below this other class." No. As far as Confucianism is concerned the peasant, soldier, merchant, and minister are all fucking subjects.

It became Class Freeze in Korea largely because the Koreans already had Nobility and a sort of strict native caste system in place, which Neo-Confucianism strengthened. While the Japanese class freeze was due to the predominance of the Warrior Class, which again Neo-Confucianism strengthened.

In China, meanwhile, the nobility died long ago, while the Scholar-Bureaucrat Aristocracy isn't closed off and extremely porous: anyone can enter.
