Giving an objective opinion about China's strengths and faults is "gushing?"

You're a troll. Trolls lie.

Communist countries do not have strong, growing economies, moonbat. That's a literal impossibility.

China's government is authoritarian.

China's government is violent.

China's government is repressive.

China's government is a threat to its neighbors.

A lying troll would call that "gushing."

But thanks to greater economic freedom, China's government is slowly being pushed in the direction of greater political freedom, especially at the local level.

And thanks to greater economic freedom, not only is the average Chinese citizen not starving as they did under relatively pure Socialism, they're becoming much more prosperous.
