Recently, veteran self-media figure Cai Shunkun posted on X platform, discussing the governance structure and political situation of county and township governments with a grassroots cadre. The cadre mentioned that many common people believe, “As long as one gets close to the Communist Party, generations will not live in peace.” This has become a basic consensus among many.
The cadre continued, “During the time of agricultural management and rural police for family planning, forcing evictions and relocations, those involved did not end up well. Many families were broken, wives left, children scattered, and there were many instances of infidelity. Now, agricultural management and rural police are once again densely scattered in rural areas, aiming to control farmers, and this will not yield good results.
“The governance at the county and township level is indeed chaotic. Those wanting to live well can only do so by getting close to officials, but once they do so, generations will not find peace!
“Anti-corruption efforts at the grassroots level are vigorous, where party discipline replaces state laws. In one county, four successive county party secretaries were all investigated and removed from office, and a county office director was classified as committing suicide out of fear (in a bizarre incident where the director was found hanging in the office chair). The director’s sister and some relatives protested, the news was completely suppressed, and finally, jobs were arranged for a few family members to settle the matter. In a poverty-stricken county, whenever corruption was discovered, related bureau chiefs or officials in charge would commit suicide.
“The Communist Party is not merely about corruption issues; they are the root cause of the decline of the Chinese nation. Many talk about how minority groups suffer, but in reality, the Han people in rural areas are the most miserable. Unless a family produces a martyr, many families go to great lengths to ensure their children can gain admission to a decent university, even changing their ethnicity before college entrance examinations.”
Media chief editor and founder of a Shenzhen NPO, Ai Shicheng, expressed to Da Ji Yuan that these phenomena are becoming increasingly common in China; it reflects the backlash of unchecked and unrestrained power, with more and more wielders of power and those dependent on it facing retribution.
He pointed out that as a dynasty reaches its end, various contradictions pile up, governance becomes irrelevant, and there is a need to constantly commit evil to strengthen stability control. At such a stage, scapegoats are sought, and those who execute evil deeds, who abet in wrongdoing, are continuously sacrificed.
Ai Shicheng stated that among his classmates and friends, including businessmen and grassroots officials involved in enforcing family planning and strong stability policies, many have faced consequences and been used as scapegoats. Specific details cannot be disclosed.
A key psychological support in the Communist Party’s rule lies in forcing individuals within the system to collectively commit wrongdoings, collective sins, and then collectively taking the blame for the Party’s wrongdoing.
For instance, with the implementation of family planning, the Communist Party has forcibly imposed an unpopular and widely resisted policy for decades, essentially resulting in the slaughter of unborn babies, a crime against humanity.
The excuse used by the Communist Party to link population growth with poverty is a historical absurdity. The Chinese people are inherently hardworking, conservative, and abide by rules, making them the best creators of wealth. Throughout history, periods of prosperity coincided with a flourishing population. In reality, the root cause of widespread poverty among the Chinese is the Communist Party’s planned economy. Once reforms were initiated, the numerous population became a source of China’s wealth.
This ability to execute is also due to the mobilization of party members, party organizations, and the government at grassroots levels, burdening too many individuals with blood debts. Despite this, individuals must bear the burden of this collective blood debt.
A woman from a Korean ethnic minority in Jilin, who served as the women’s director for two years, admitted to a Da Ji Yuan reporter during an interview that during her tenure, she pressured many people into undergoing sterilization and abortion procedures, which she can hardly remember. Pregnant women at seven to eight months old watched as unborn babies were aborted alive; those forcibly sterilized mostly carried postoperative complications, some even lost their ability to work.
She stated that she later saw those tortured souls and unborn lives brutally killed in her nightmares, experiencing unimaginable pain and misery, prompting her to never take up such a role as a women’s director again.
The head of the Overseas Chinese Human Rights Lawyers Alliance, Wu Shaoping, told Da Ji Yuan that many people in Chinese society have been brainwashed by the Communist Party and do not believe in karma or divine retribution. Reflecting on cases he knew of, he genuinely felt that those who committed numerous wrongdoings faced punishment or retribution from a higher power.
Wu Shaoping mentioned a father of a primary school classmate who was a family planning cadre in a township. During that time, family planning enforcement was severe, involving house searches and confiscating valuable possessions. Many families were left destitute, hiding their children until they were born before daring to reveal them, fearing being caught upon return to their hometowns, resulting in dire situations.
He explained that such occurrences are considered crimes against humanity worldwide. Yet, at that time, those individuals enjoyed privileges and held significant power in their villages. The classmate’s father, at around fifty years old, succumbed to cancer, prompting thoughts of it being retribution.
The entire communist movement is akin to a plague, spreading envy, hatred, division, and discontent wherever it goes, bringing not prosperity and longevity but poverty, disease, and misfortune.
Chinese people believe in “good deeds bring blessings, bad deeds bring calamity,” and that those who commit the worst deeds face dire consequences. Although modern concepts may not fully understand this, historical facts confirm the principle.
Descendants of hardworking, honest gentry, and businessmen who had their properties confiscated during public-private partnerships and land reforms, mostly regained wealth after the reform and opening up. This information is readily available through research and conversations with elderly individuals.
Conversely, those deemed as ringleaders of the communist movement all met with unfortunate fates.
The seven children of Karl Marx, the ideological “mentor” of communism, suffered four untimely deaths, two suicides, and one death from illness. Vladimir Lenin, the organizer of Bolshevik rule, contracted syphilis and became infertile. Joseph Stalin, responsible for the Great Purge and the Ukrainian Famine, saw both his sons meet tragic ends, with one committing suicide, the other dying from alcoholism, while his daughter fled to the United States and changed her last name. Mao Zedong, instigator of the Great Leap Forward and the Cultural Revolution, had his eldest son killed on a Korean battlefield, leaving his sole surviving son unable to care for himself. Those who followed these “comrades” in the revolution were continuously purged by the Party under various pretexts.
In the various movements since the establishment of the Communist Party, most fervent executors of the party line did not meet favorable outcomes.
A citizen from mainland China explained, “Under Communist Party leadership, the common people have no opportunity for advancement. Treacherous cases abound under the Communist Party, with numerous examples that are endless.”
Ai Shicheng emphasized that the Communist Party’s destruction of traditional Chinese ethics and morality, as well as the overall deterioration of Chinese society, has reached the level of national destruction. He stated that in the past, royal authority still valued moderation and compassion, but the Communist Party only values party loyalty, with party interests taking precedence over everything, willing to destroy anything for power.
Wu Shaoping explained that for the Communist Party to control the country and society, it relies on specific party members, party organizations, and government levels to operate. The system’s evil lies in turning every official into a callous screw, devoid of any humanity. Will such an organizational setup care for society? Will it genuinely look after the nation? No. Of course, there are a few good individuals, but many are not kind-hearted. Because those with a kind heart cannot carry out the Party’s assigned tasks.
He mentioned that the rural grassroots people in contact with the Communist Party are the unhappiest, often fleeing to big cities to escape the rigid social hierarchy of counties and townships. Before Xi Jinping’s leadership, there was a period of relative relaxation in big cities, where party branches were not involved in every enterprise, and the economy was flourishing. However, once Xi Jinping came to power, party branches infiltrated every enterprise, including their law firm in Shanghai.
He continued, with Xi Jinping’s promotion of party control over everything, big cities have become closer to the Communist Party, resulting in today’s scenario of economic decline, factory closures, and a surge in unemployment.
He added that wherever the Communist Party extends its reach, problems arise. Party branches enter regions, and those involved are usually unfamiliar with technology and unable to create wealth; they intend to exploit resources instead.
Wu Shaoping asserted that the Communist Party’s ruling model essentially deserts the Chinese people, turning society into individual grains of sand in a desert, exposed to desolation. Contrasting this to Taiwan, where people are friendly and trustworthy among strangers without needing to be cautious, Chinese society is filled with complex psychological fears, interacting with strangers, such as making phone calls, often harboring fear and distrust.
“Therefore, staying away from the Chinese Communist Party has its advantages,” he concluded.
