That's completely absurd. This is the dumbest thing anyone's said this conversation.

The sample size isn't "n=1" it's n=800,000,000. It's clearly visible from the graph that I posted that the reduction in poverty began immediately after the reforms, and then continued extremely consistently on an extremely large scale.

In case you need a refresher on what the data looks like:

You're just so committed to shitting on every single thing that China does that you're willing to throw out all reason and logic, completely ignore obvious facts, and throw out any means of evaluating any policy just to avoid the conclusion that China may have done a single thing right.

What other possible explanation even is there? You're just very objectively wrong.

Wtf are you even talking about? My first comment was about this, and that's all I've been saying this entire conversation. The goalpost has always been exactly where it's at.

It is entirely you and others who have tried to move the goalposts from "This one policy was successful" to "China is the best country in the world," which was never my position, because it's easier for you to argue against that.

You're completely full of shit. You've just defaulted to random accusations and insults based on nothing because you know you can't argue with the facts.

Again you move the goalpost. Sad that you spend so much effort just to boot lick. I hope you get paid at least 🙏

I've made very well reasoned arguments backed by data and sources, you just randomly scream that I'm "moving the goalposts" somehow with absolutely zero explanation for how I'm supposedly doing it and just repeat that and throw insults at me. It's obvious that you're just a troll.

Where do you think the goalposts are supposed to be? What did I say that set the goalposts there? You have nothing, you're just slinging shit against the wall and hoping something sticks.

You didn't even make a sound argument let alone a reasonable one.

Relaity is China got out of poverty in spite of CCP not because of it. If they had democracy like Taiwan they'd be more rich AND more free.
