It is true though, China has lifted 800 million out of poverty.
Why do you like the nationalists that invaded Taiwan, slaughtering local resistance, and installed a military dictatorship after losing a civil war to the popularly supported communist party?
Out of extreme poverty (less than $1.90 per day). It's a good news for sure, but India did the same thing without gulags.
China has never had gulags, the GULAG administration was a part of the early-mid Soviet penal system. Further, India is absolutely not combatting poverty nearly as effectively, purchasing power in 2022 was 25 times higher than 1978 in China. Do you know what the poverty alleviation campaign looked like in practice? The building of mass infrastructure, job creation, and directly building up rural economy.
China has prisons, what's your point? They don't have slave labor nor prison labor. The overwhelming majority of Chinese citizens support their socialist system thanks to the pro-social policies implemented and the real, material gains. Hitler was not economically efficient, he helped Nazi Germany colonize the surrounding regions, and committed the genocide of 10s of millions of people. The People's Republic of China has had steady, incredibly rapid growth consistently since it was founded in 1949. Socialism is good because it works, and works for the working classes. Nazism only benefited the ruling capitalists at the expense of mass repressions. What on Earth is this comparison?
