    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.

                A sound argument is better than a reasonable one. Don’t use terms you don’t understand.

                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.

                Non sequitor, that’s also false and not supported by anything. Didn’t you just get done making the point that you can’t compare countries with very different conditions? You’re contradicting your own claims. How did you put it? “Which dicks do we measure and do we start at the balls or just the shaft?”

                How did I move the goalposts? Justify the accusation or take it back, otherwise you’re just full of shit. Don’t just try to move on after getting called out for the fact that you have nothing to back it up.

                Btw, the original criticism was over China having billionaires. Now you’re saying it should be more like Taiwan, which… also has billionaires. This demonstrates that the criticism that China is bad because it has billionaires is unfounded.
