I didn’t call it nonsense. The truth of the statement isn’t in question just by calling it propaganda. I’m criticizing it because cherry-picking economic successes to celebrate an oppressive regime is a concerning behaviour.
Raising 800 million people out of poverty in the span of 70 years is not “cherry picking,” it’s the “greatest such achievement in history” by the UN’s own reckoning. How do you square the circle of China being an “oppressive regime” and raising 800 million people out of poverty? I’m sure you’ve been fed virtually the same fire hose of cold war propaganda your whole life as I have.
