Under Mao, life expectancy in China jumped from 40 to 62
(lemmygrad.ml)
A reminder of the unparalleled advances in public health made by communist states. Even if every absurd fabrication that the anti-communist propagandists like to parrot about the millions supposedly killed by Stalin, Mao, etc. was true, those numbers would pale in comparison to the number of lives they saved, the hundreds of millions of life spans extended by entire decades. And if you want the perfect control sample of what it looks like when you start with nearly identical conditions but don't have communist central planning, look at India.
Okay now overlay China's line on top of that. Better yet, take China out of the global average and then compare. Because China actually is single-handedly responsible for a good portion of that average increase.
My point was that life expectancy generally increased throughout the world while this post makes it seem Mao′s regime did a one of a kind miracle. Here are 3 countries with even more impressive change.
You realize two of those countries are also socialist right?
Also include the declines in life expectancy in Bosnia+Herzogovinia and Albania after the collapse of socialism and reintroduction of capitalism.
First of all, as one noted, Bosnia and Albania were part of Eastern socialist Block, Bahrain got its development through being a gulf oil-based state
Second, in making the more accurate comparison, how the fuck does India screw up more compare to China? You didn't answer my shit for that. India was left more untouched and preserved, compared to China's initial ruined state pre-Mao
Also, When did I say it was unparalleled?

Here is some random analysis if it bothers you that much.
Reply where I said ″unparalleled″ was against original post and poster′s later comment, no idea how did you conclude I quoted you.
Ok thanks for the response, glad we're on same terms

I can't take back my unwarranted rudeness, I just felt like you were one of those typical Lemmy libs that come here to do a one liner to 'own' us... So I said that impulsivelyBut it seems I was wrong
