800 million lifted out of poverty by CPC based on reports by CPC conducted under the administration of CPC. Commended by CPC.

And confirmed by every single international observer? Do you have any evidence that China's lying besides conspiracy brain? Do you think the hyper capitalist world bank is lying to help China? https://www.worldbank.org/en/news/press-release/2022/04/01/lifting-800-million-people-out-of-poverty-new-report-looks-at-lessons-from-china-s-experience

Give me an explanation for this that isn't racism, please

[–] FourteenEyes@hexbear.net 11 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

The responses show it's just racism

World bank reports use reports by the CCP to report on China. It's a well known fact. They cant conduct independent surveys in China

Absolutely impenetrable Western chauvinism brain. Literally all evidence is to the contrary. You can provide nothing to support your position - it's just an article of faith. You're the flat-earther of geopolitics.

As a nation that suffered profoundly under colonial and imperialist exploitation, I too would like to give up control over my economic narrative to foreign powers and let the World Bank operate freely and risk getting my sovereignty undermined and open venues for capitalist subversion. We all know data is neutral, amirite?

Your answer is a rhetorical device and relies on the belief that nations like the US don't have capacity to prove that China is making up their numbers and wouldnt make it public the moment they'd have proof.

gee, they must also control the world bank, which is... uh it was founded in washington and every president of it has been an american so far and uh

The countries with most voting power are now the United States (15.85%), Japan (6.84%), China (4.42%), Germany (4.00%), the United Kingdom (3.75%), France (3.75%), India (2.91%),[41] Russia (2.77%), Saudi Arabia (2.77%) and Italy (2.64%).

yes, the communists also control this, clearly.

[–] AwkwardBroccolli@lemmy.ml -3 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

Control has nothing to do with this. You cannot go and do a sampling survey in China independently without the permission of CCP. So every report that comes out of a China is a lie or at best mixed with truth.

oh mysterious orient, wont you give up your secrets

Unlike western sources, which have a great track record.

We are gonna find those WMDs in Iraq any day now.

The "4 comments until racism" rule: challenge a liberal, and about 4 comments deep they go mask off racist
