I’m not very informed on modern China and there’s a ton of sources accusing China of killing and even harvesting organs from Uyghurs and Falun Gong believers.

Is there any truth to those claims or is it all pigpoop ?

      specifically they believe that communism is a satanic plot by ghosts

      When you don’t understand what a metaphor is and you read “a specter is haunting Europe”.

      “Atheism and evolution are deadly ideas. Modern trends destroy what makes us human.” - quote from a Shen Yun performance. I’m half tempted to go to one just to snap a pic of the giant Karl Marx head tsunami wave.

      Wait that makes communism sound cool and metal as fuck.

      Part of me kinda wish we lived in the fantasy world these people say they believe in, where instead of reading theory and attending party meetings, communists are actually mighty wizard-shamans who gain esoteric mystical powers through constantly doing gay orgiastic rituals, and then use it to summon spirits of the ancestral dead in order to perform crazy magical feats like making entire nation-spanning train networks appear out of mid-air or transmuting arid deserts into dense forests.
