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.

    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?

    Do you put words in people’s mouths, like you put your dick in your mother’s?

      How the fuck does India screw up more compare to China?

      Here is some random analysis if it bothers you that much.

      India’s less favorable health profile compared to China is largely attributable to its higher rates of mortality from communicable diseases and maternal and perinatal conditions. Further health gains can be achieved by reducing social inequality, greater investments in human development and health services, and by prevention and control of chronic-disease risks such as hypertension, smoking, obesity, and physical inactivity.

      Also, When did I say it was unparalleled?

      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

        spoiler

        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 impulsively

        But it seems I was wrong
