It might have worked in that regard but at what cost? An authoritarian state that commits genocide inside it's own borders, so yes it clearly failed in the regard that it does not treat everyone equally, a core principle of real communism.

Your genocide assertion I won't touch because it's untouchable on lemmy.world.

Look man, whether its a genocide or not doesn't matter. The human rights abuse is well documented and agreed upon by many independent parties. The point is, there is no equality there. So it can't be actual communism, despite them claiming that it is.

Who cares what the exact number is? Of course China says they're just trying to help people, why would they say anything else? But you don't need watchtowers to help people get educated right?

And that AMA thing... It's an information war. Even the US wouldn't be stupid enough to use the real name of someone for that. I feel like it's more likely someone was trying to discredit the genocide claims with that.. Just throwing the name into aechive.org is too easy.

It's certainly difficult to tell what's really going on from here. But usually there is more abuse going on than one would like to think, no matter where you look.

Hold it!

Do you have evidence to support this testimony?

It doesn't matter whether it actually fits the definition of genocide. Human rights get abused there, which is well documented and agreed upon by several sources. That means there is no equality and thus no communism in China.
