Okay, so where's your proof of this? Reports? Graphs? Photos?
Of course you don't have any because you're just asserting an absolutely, totally ridiculous narrative. The growth rate was frighteningly low?? It was the fastest rate of economic growth in human history! The people became poorer??? China is basically the only place in the world that lifted anyone out of poverty in the last thirty years! Without China, global poverty reduction is a net negative. 800 million people joined the middle class! These are not achievements you can have "in name only". Like, you can't fake the fact that China produced ONE BILLION TONS of steel last year, or that it installed four times as much green energy as the entire G7 combined. These facts require an enormous, highly advanced industrial base, which requires an enormous, highly skilled body of workers.
So what, exactly, is your personal experience of China that contradicts these provable facts then?

Calculated by the total industrial and agricultural output value, the average annual growth rate from 1966 to 1978 was 8.5%, far exceeding the 6.7% growth rate from 1979 to 1981 after the reform and opening up. There are many economic indicators, such as coal, oil, steel, power generation, machine tools, etc. The growth rate of production is even higher than after the reform. The national fiscal revenue has an average annual growth of 6.9%, far exceeding the average annual negative growth rate of 1.7% from 1979 to 1981. If the economy was "on the verge of collapse" during the "Cultural Revolution", then wouldn't the economy from 1979 to 1981 after the reform be even more "on the verge of collapse"! —— Jiang Weigang "Objectively Look at my country's Economic Development during the Cultural Revolution"
