    When exactly did Hu Jintao say that it’s not true that 800 million Chinese have been uplifted from poverty?

    Civil war, you mean the Chinese civil war that happened over 70 years ago when China was a peasant kingdom instead of the #1 industrial producer in the world that it is nowadays? You seriously believe that the conditions in China haven’t gotten 2000% better over the past 70 years? For fuck’s sake, life expectancy in China before Mao was less than 30 years of age.
