There's no denying that life for the everyday Chinese citizen is fairly decent. I'm thinking of the unfortunate people in work and re-education camps. I'm no fan of authoritarianism of any kind.
I assume you're talking about Xinjiang? How are you defining 'work camp' or 'education camp'? How would you propose that China put a stop to US-backed terrorism in the region? Would this have been more or less effective than the CPC's response (considering that there is more-or-less no more terrorism in the region and living standards have shot up)?
Could the CPC have alleviated the poverty of 800 million people without exercising class power through state authority?
