For 49 years of Saigon’s fall, the UK Headquarters of the China Democracy Party supports the Vietnamese people’s anti-communist struggle.
On April 28, 2024, at 12:00 p.m., the UK Headquarters of the China Democracy Party voiced support for the commemoration of the 49th anniversary of Saigon’s fall organized by the New Revolutionary Party of Vietnam and local Vietnamese associations in front of the Vietnamese Embassy.
Despite the drizzling rain, nearly two hundred participants held various banners expressing their political demands. Despite the gloomy weather, the atmosphere was passionate, with participants chanting slogans and organizers delivering enthusiastic speeches.
Led by advisor Huang Hua, members of the UK Headquarters of the China Democracy Party carried banners with slogans like “Let all the enslaved by Marxism unite!” to the site of the 49th anniversary commemoration of Saigon’s fall, expressing support for the Vietnamese people’s anti-communist struggle and conveying strong support and sympathy to the Vietnamese people, who are also victims of communism.
After the event, Junius Tian, the foreign affairs representative of the UK Headquarters of the China Democracy Party, expressed the party’s sincere wishes for the democratic movements in both China and Vietnam to the relevant Vietnamese organizers. He emphasized that in today’s politically complex world, the extreme leftist forces and their moral relativism narratives are gradually undermining the sacredness and universality of concepts such as democracy, freedom, and human rights. However, the China Democracy Party will always uphold these values and believes that every person who believes in these values but lives in a communist country has the right to enjoy them in their future homeland and must, in the future, take them for granted like Western citizens.
Party members Huang Hua, Yu Gang, Liao Liuyan, Yan Lei, Gu Xiaofeng, Lan Ziming, Li Haobo, Junius Tian, and others attended the event.

Sorry, forgive me for not kowtowing to you because I have a colonial mentality
— Written in April 2024, when Hong Kong‘s Basic Law Article 23 was passed
Junius Tian
“Why are they waving that flag? These colonial mentality idiots!” The Marxists, brimming with elitist arrogance, with their champagne-filled goblets as they pointed at the Hong Kong protesters.
Even amidst public controversy, the Basic Law Article 23 of Hong Kong was still ultimately passed through by Beijing’s political puppets. As diaspora Hong Kongers scattered across the globe mourned the fading freedoms of their hometown, those Marxist thinkers of the free world busied themselves with scrutinizing and seizing upon any opportunity to launch their postcolonial criticism upon the pro-democracy Hong Kong people. Finally, they shifted their focus to the dragon and lion flag waved by the Hong Kong protesters, jubilantly proclaiming it as evidence of the so-called colonial mentality of Hong Kong people. Subsequently, those Marxist thinkers deduced such a conclusion: their leftist utopian regime, the People’s Republic of China’s suppression in Hong Kong, is the resistance of marginalized cultures against cultural colonialism.
Marxists always defend tyranny with their cringe-dark humor. They peddle their grand narrative about oppression-resistance within the free world through a fashionable lens of postmodernism, and they consistently disdain to understand the oppressed of autocratic state struggle way from a perspective of empathy and equality. They immerse themselves in a narrow worldview shaped by their snobbish sense of high educational superiority, pretending to be elegant and rational, then judging the right and wrong of resistors through the biased lens of leftist ideology.
From the umbrella movement in 2014 to the anti-extradition movement in 2019, those middle-class taste Q&A platforms like Quora have never lacked Gucci communist elites of both Chinese and white descent, adorned with their class superiority, judging and criticizing Hong Kong protesters. Just as left-wing individuals consistently display an arrogant attitude toward the working class, these individuals, in a superior manner, accuse Hong Kong protesters of a so-called colonial mentality. Meanwhile, the Hong Kong protesters either remain silent or defend themselves with a humble attitude when they face such nauseating arrogance offense as if they did something wrong.
The truth is that the oppressed endure suffering tyranny, and those hypocrites who enjoy their coffee in Western universities overshadow victims’ voices with lengthy critical theory. These left-wing hypocrites are like the ugly leeches on the Statue of Liberty, greedily sucking up the precious freedom that is invaluable to humanity, merciless scorn and ridicule the weakest cries for freedom from those enslaved under tyranny.
Whether it’s the Hong Kong protesters fighting for democracy against Marxist regimes, females under Taliban rule, or trembling gay partners under the barrel of Hamas’s guns, they all belong to the group that lacks empowerment by left-wing media but is always arbitrarily judged by left-wing media’s ideological biases. Because the tyranny that oppresses them isn’t Western imperialism but is some certain things shielded from criticism due to political correctness, these oppressed are born as human beings as the Western Marxist but have to carefully and humbly express their pain, cautiously protest against the cruelty and injustices of tyranny. When they express their opinions, they must constantly be wary that they might accidentally shatter the Marxist moral superiority of the ‘anti-colonialism’ and incur relentless slander from the so-called critical thinkers.
But compared to the systemic genocide, oppression, and enslavement imposed on hundreds of millions of people since the birth of Marxist ideology, what fault do the oppressed have? What fault do the protesters in Hong Kong have? They are just waving a dragon and lion flag on their hometown street, just practicing civil rights like those Marxists waving the hammer and sickle flag in the USA. Furthermore, the story behind this flag is neither bloodier than that of Che Guevara nor more cruel than that of the hammer and sickle.
Marxists always say Hong Kong never achieved a 21st-century democratic system under Britain. Yes, indeed, Hong Kong before 1997 never had the luxury of implementing a modern democratic system. However, Hong Kong provided new lifestyle options unprecedented in East Asia mainland. This lifestyle is turning the city’s residents fussy like a Gweilo, who can’t endure the barbaric laws that treat human life as insignificant. This lifestyle is turning the city’s residents racist like a Gweilo, who dare to look at Chinese despots levelly, insulting the Chinese traditional etiquette called kneel three times and kowtow nine times. This lifestyle is turning the city’s residents rebellious like a Gweilo, they assist and shelter revolutionaries fleeing from despotic regimes or Marxist tyranny, preserving the spark of revolution, always ready to burn down the Forbidden City and the commie Emperor’s dragon robe.
If Hong Kong before 1997 was a city shrouded in colonial oppression and darkness as Marxists claim. So what makes a place with 7,450 residents in 1841 become an immigration city with nearly 6.5 million people by 1997? And if Marxists truly the liberators of the oppressed people as they claim, so why did the people liberated by them even risk death to swim across the Shenzhen River, crossing through the Marxist regime’s gunfire and barbed wire to a city shrouded in colonial oppression and darkness when Marxist brought the communist heaven to the Republic of China’s residents in 1949?
The Hong Kongers wave an old flag and struggle for a new ideal in East Asia mainland, while Marxists spout the trendiest bullshit to defend the old-school despotic regime. Marxists construct countless critical theories with a single path dependency and a grand narrative lacking falsifiability, making people reflexively build a bridge between all the world’s suffering and so-called Western imperialism or colonialism legacy.
However, since we have broached the topic of suffering, we must mention the historical suffering endured by the people from the Yellow River Basin to the Bosphorus Strait. It was suffering caused by despotic regimes rooted in local culture, characterized by mass slaughter, enslavement, and genocide. Sadly, such tyranny was so commonplace in most human historical societies that people who endured it even forgot how to define suffering. Therefore, Marxists opportunistically hijack the discourse power of the oppressed in defining their suffering, standing on piles of victimized bones and boasting about the so-called glorious civilization established by the blood-stained hands of those murderers, claiming it to be more humane and progressive than Western modern civilization. Marxists penned the lie of “respecting multiculturalism” with the blood of countless women, children, and slaves, then turned to the trembling oppressed and said, “Look, this is love and peace.” The anti-colonialism and imperialism are so convenient to be an excuse to justify tyranny that even the victims hesitate to oppose the bullshit behind this excuse. Therefore, merely attaching the labels of imperialism or colonialism to anything can make people shun it. So Antonio Gramsci invented the theory of cultural hegemony, inspiring countless arrogant Marxists to appropriate or invent terms like liberal imperialism and turn them into Frankfurt School gibberish.
Even though Marxists manipulate numerous sociological terms with diverse naming characteristics, they only convey their elitist arrogance and a unification core viewpoint to the people ruled by tyranny. Their core belief is that concepts like democracy, liberty, and human rights are also colonial oppression imposed by Western civilization on the world. Those outside Western countries should establish the cultural confidence advocated by comrade Xi Jinping because they are not entitled to enjoy the dignity and freedom that Marxists take for granted in the West.
Still, just like the intense response from the protesters in Hong Kong to Xi Jinping’s notion of cultural confidence, how can that colonial mentality of Asians like me accept a lifestyle of kneeling and kowtowing to tyrants again? How can we willingly accept being humble servants to those left-wing white people who travel to and enjoy privileges in communist countries? The answer is no way.
But fortunately, perhaps we can always find a compromise alternative that satisfies everyone. The story of the Macartney Embassy tells us that if Gweilo is dissatisfied with the personal insult caused by the etiquette of kneeling and kowtowing, another Western etiquette called kneeling on one knee can also serve as an alternative for show respect to Oriental despots. But given certain circumstances, as I’m a colonial mentality Asian fake Gweilo, I assess neither traditional Oriental despots nor modern commie tyrants would allow people like me who are without white privileged to receive the same etiquette exemption as Gweilos. Hence, we must adapt the Gweilo’s kneeling on one knee into “kneeling position shooting.” Its most commendable aspect is that few people can receive such a level of kneeling twice in their lifetime.
Finally, I must say that those far-left youth in the free world who are accustomed to consuming freedom but pander to tyrants are no nobler than the young people in Hong Kong who live in cramped housing but love freedom. The Marxist bourgeoisie, filled with a sense of superiority, playing with post-colonial sophistry and Frankfurt School nonsense, are no braver than the dissenters imprisoned by the Commie regime in China. If you want to receive us kneeling, then please receive our kneeling etiquette in future China with those commie tyrants together after their downfall.
And then, the dragon and lion flag will flutter freely without judging, fluttering in the future of free Hong Kong.
And then, the revolutionary capitalist flag will surely wave, waving over the ruins of Marxist regimes.
With my best Love and peace, just like Karl Marx did.
The UK Headquarters of China Democracy Party held a protest demonstration on March 23 against the “23 Articles” imposed on HK.
On March 23, 2024, despite the biting chill of early spring, the UK Headquarters of China Democracy Party held a protest demonstration in London against the “23 articles” imposed on Hong Kong, standing in solidarity with Hong Kong compatriots in their pursuit of democracy and freedom.
At 1:00 PM, in front of the Chinese Embassy in the UK, party members held banners opposing the so-called Basic Law Article 23 imposed by the CCP government in Hong Kong, chanting slogans calling for freedom and democracy, protesting against the CCP’s imposition of iron-fisted politics in Hong Kong under the guise of “democratic governance”.
At 2:30 PM, the members rushed to the front of the UK Foreign Office, joining protesters from various Hong Kong democratic groups in the UK, including the British Hong Kongers Association and HKDC, to expose the hypocritical nature of the Hong Kong SAR government’s pseudo-democracy and true dictatorship, and to show support for Hong Kong compatriots around the world in their efforts and sacrifices to break free from human rights shackles.
Nearly 40 years have passed since the signing of the Sino-British Joint Declaration on the Question of Hong Kong’s Return in 1985. The promises made by the Chinese government to the people of Hong Kong “to let Hong Kong be Hong Kong” still echo in our ears, yet the countdown on the “50-year unchanged” empty promises has begun ticking.
The Hong Kong SAR government’s blatant disregard for public opinion has torn off the mask of the so-called democratically elected government in Hong Kong, adding a new blood debt to the CCP’s shame book of dictatorship. This is the chilling spring of Chinese democracy and Hong Kong democracy, and it is destined to be the spark of a new round of relentless struggle.
On an ordinary Saturday afternoon, a group of China Democracy Party UK Headquarters members, drumming and chanting for democracy and freedom, continue to pour out their passion for overseas democracy movements and write on with their faith. Old members and new comrades alike have expressed that they are fighting for democracy now, for eternal peace in the future. Our party members have a long way to go. The flame of freedom will not die, and the heart of democracy will not perish.
Adhering to the principle of non-violent struggle, the UK Headquarters of China Democracy Party notified the London Police Department of this protest demonstration. Upon receiving the news, the Chinese Embassy in the UK also erected barricades at the entrance. We must ask, what are they afraid of in the face of a group of unarmed, peaceful demonstrators from the China Democracy Party?!
Participants in this event: Li Yalan, Yu Weiliang, Guo Yuxuan, Zeng Fu, Lin Lijun, Jin Xuecen, Wei Chenyu, Wei Yiming, Liu Encheng, Wang Hai, Lin Mingqiang, Li Haobo, Zhao Qiang, Li Jingtang, Andy Chow, Archer, and others.

Side Notes on the Three Donation Drives for Mr. Zhu Yufu by the UK Headquarters of China Democracy Party
In response to the call of the “China Democracy Party Zhu Yufu Rescue Committee”, the UK headquarters of China Democracy Party held three consecutive fundraising activities on March 3, March 5, and March 10, 2024. The locations are in front of the Chinese Embassy in the UK, at the entrance of Ealing Broadway subway station in west London, and in London’s Chinatown.
Our young party members braved the cold and rainy British weather and came from all areas of London. What moved me the most was party member Li Yalun. Every time, he comes first. Because he had no money to pay the rent, he lived on the street. He carried two backpacks and a sleeping bag on his shoulders and slept rough in a park near the event site and on the streets of Chinatown. All the party members in our party department are helping him and his problem will be solved soon.
On Sunday, March 10th, we planned to have the peak day of donation in Chinatown. However, London encountered a rare continuous moderate rain that lasted the whole day, so the effect was not ideal. Party member Corrine Angel sang Yue Opera live and poured her emotions into it. Mr. Tian, a party member, gave a speech in English every time, exposing how the Chinese Communist dictatorship persecuted the China Democrats, and introduced Mr. Zhu Yufu’s heroic deeds of fighting against dictatorship, fighting for freedom, fighting for human rights, and fighting for democracy in China. Other party members lined up and handed out leaflets to passers-by.
This event attracted great attention from young British people passing by. Some people kept coming forward to ask for leaflets and donations. A young British college student told me that your activities have great spiritual power for patients. I told him that everyone will have a day when they need help, whether it is financial or spiritual.
The main purpose of the UK headquarters of China Democracy Party in organizing this event is to show the world that Mr. Zhu Yufu is not alone. Behind him are generations of young people who will inherit the cause of democracy started by Mr. Zhu Yufu. Even though we are thousands of miles apart and don’t know each other, our common beliefs connect us. Mr. Zhu Yufu lives for his faith and fights for his faith! The spiritual power radiating from him is huge!
The UK headquarters of China Democracy Party’s fund-raising activities for Mr. Zhu Yufu’s medical expenses for advanced gastric cancer will not end. In a week we will go to the Netherlands to distribute leaflets about him.
The party members who participated in these three activities are as follows: Li Yalun, Hu Xiao, Li Haobo, Tomas, Corrine Angel, Chen Bin, Liu Encheng, Yu Liangwei, Wang Yujun, Zhou Huan, Mr. Tian, Yu Gang, Huang Hua and other party members.
今天，伦敦西部阳光明媚，气候温和。募捐现场就在地铁站旁边，人来人往，熙熙攘攘。现场播放英语歌曲： Lean on me. 《依靠我》。这是一首鼓舞病人和病魔战斗的感人歌曲，表达了我们每一个人都会遇到这一天，需要依靠别人帮助自己的情感。有党员不停地用中英文演讲，揭露中共独裁政府是如何迫害中国民主党人的，并介绍朱虞夫先生在中国国内的反独裁，争自由，争人权，争民主的英雄事迹。其他党员一字排开，向路过的过客散发传单。

Mr. Zhu Yufu was imprisoned three times for a total of 16 years. He was summoned and detained numerous times. The most ridiculous one is his “It’s Time!” 》12 lines of poetry and was sentenced to seven years in prison. In November 2023, Mr. Zhu Yufu was diagnosed with advanced gastric cancer. He had a total gastrectomy and relied only on intestinal absorption to maintain his life. After many twists and turns, Mr. Zhu Yufu fled to Japan for treatment on February 2, but he will face high medical expenses.
It’s sunny and mild today in west London. The donation site is right next to the subway station, bustling with people coming and going. English song played live: Lean on me. This is a touching song that encourages patients to fight the disease. It expresses the emotion that each of us will encounter on this day and the need to rely on others to help us. Some party members kept giving speeches in Chinese and English, exposing how the Chinese Communist dictatorship persecuted the China Democrats, and introduced Mr. Zhu Yufu’s heroic deeds of fighting against dictatorship, fighting for freedom, fighting for human rights, and fighting for democracy in China.

Support for Dr. K, Support for Freedom and Democracy
On the afternoon of January 26, 2024, some members of the UK Headquarters of the China Democracy Party gathered at Kings Cross St Pancras train station in London, holding signs to express support for the British pianist Dr. K, support for freedom and democracy, and disdain for dictatorship and tyranny.

The UK Headquarters of the China Democracy Party Hosts Preparatory Meeting for the “National Affairs Conference” in Europe
On January 21, 2024, the China Democracy Movement Overseas Coalition, Voice of Europe, and the UK Headquarters of the China Democracy Party organized a preparatory meeting for the “National Affairs Conference” at the Royal National Hotel Conference Center in London. The event aimed to gather opinions from various parties and discuss future strategies.
In early November 2023, Wei Jingsheng, Wang Dan, and Wang Juntao proposed in San Francisco to hold a “National Affairs Conference” both domestically and overseas. The goal and mission were to discuss plans to end the corrupt and authoritarian rule of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and establish a democratic China. This initiative is positioned as a responsible political force for the future of China and the world, an indispensable part of the international democratic camp.
During the morning session of the meeting on the 21st, speakers including Huang Ciping, Liao Tianqi, Pan Yongzhong, Wang Guanru, Huang Hua, Sonam Chodon, David Hardingham, Liu Hanxiang, Huo Jiazhi, Cai Mingda, Wang Guoxing, Chakra Ip, and Steven Tsang delivered insightful speeches, expressing their views on the Chinese political situation and future plans. In the afternoon, through online connections, Wei Jingsheng, Wang Juntao, Xie Zhiwei, and Yuan Gongyi made online speeches, emphasizing the inevitability and importance of China’s future democratization. The reasons and plans for holding the “National Affairs Conference” were also explained. Leaders of the Chinese democracy movement in Europe put forward their respective visions for future actions. The meeting achieved consensus from all parties and was deemed a complete success.
After the guest speeches, Huang Ciping, Secretary-General of the China Democracy Movement Overseas Coalition, answered questions from guests and members of the democracy party on-site. Democratic Party members who attended the meeting actively expressed their concerns and worries about the future direction of China during the interactive session. They hope that overseas Chinese democracy organizations can explore new horizons and heights, and the organization of the “National Affairs Conference” will contribute to achieving this goal and ultimately promote the democratization of China.

One of the pathetic circumstances in this world is when two individuals of similar age live under the same sky and on the same land: one basks in the adoration of countless people as a star, experiencing abundant glory and favor, while the other endure the vicissitudes of life and the sorrow, and suffering that the former will never notice or imagine.
The Esu Wiki case that occurred in China in 2019 rewrote the lives of 24 teenagers, including nine minors. Chinese authorities publicly tried this case for the crime of infringing on citizen’s personal information. But ironic is that the Chinese government has never shown such concern for citizen’s privacy as in this case in the past. Reports indicate that the real reason for this sudden change in the Chinese government’s consistent stance on citizen’s privacy rights is that the victims of this private information leak are relatives of Xi Jinping.
The individual identified by the authorities as the mastermind, Niu Tengyu, is still detained in Sihui Prison in Guangdong for starting his 14-year-long sentence. Recently, his mother found that Niu Tengyu’s health was abnormal a lot and similar to those caused by poisoning or abuse when she went to visit him in prison. In contemporary China, orchestrating accidental deaths through non-public executions is a method employed against weak public influence political prisoners. However, according to reports from Kyodo News and The Epoch Times, Niu Tengyu played a limited role in the Esu Wiki case, far from being to that extent considered the mastermind. There is even some controversy regarding whether Niu Tengyu can be classified as a political prisoner in traditional meaning because the true leaker of Xi Jinping’s family’s private information is a member of an anti-Chinese government website called Zhina Wiki that is outside the jurisdiction of the Great Fire Wall. Due to some connections that once existed between the Zhina Wiki and Esu Wiki websites, Niu Tengyu, a Website operation member of Esu Wiki who can apprehended within China’s borders, became a convenient scapegoat for Chinese authorities.
According to the creator of the Zhina wiki, Niu Tengyu had once “watched” the anti-extradition law amendment bill protests in Hong Kong together with him, and this might have been a partial reason for the Chinese authorities to perceive him as a dissident and which led him to get further persecution. But in this case, whether Niu Tengyu is a political prisoner or not, the persecution from authorities in the 21st century due to offense or suspicion of offending those in power is truly sickening. What’s important is that we see in countries like China how insignificant an ordinary person is to Communist leaders and their families. The slightest suspicion of offense toward those in power and their families is enough to destroy everything in the life of an ordinary civilian and their families, no matter how trivial.
Niu Tengyu grew up in a single-parent family, living with his mother, grandmother, and grandfather. Since the 2019 Esu Wiki case, his grandparents passed away successively due to the unbearable shock. His mother, the only one he relies on, spends her days in tears, enduring the torment of heart disease. She eagerly anticipates an early reunion with her son. On his birthday, she wrote a letter to him in prison, filled with longing and love, although this letter might never reach him due to obstruction by the Chinese authorities:
“Just last night, I dreamt of you again, and you had grown much taller. Tears filled my eyes when I saw you, yet you smiled and said, ‘Mom, you look beautiful when you smile. I always love seeing you smile. Mom, please don’t cry for me!’ As my vision began to blur, I opened my arms to embrace you, but suddenly, I woke up…”
Under the totalitarian grip of Marxist ideology, numerous young individuals like Niu Tengyu and their families suffer the same pain for various reasons. The creator of the anti-Chinese government website Zhina Wiki, Xiao Yanrui, is also from a single-parent family. However, when his mother attempted to travel abroad in 2022 to visit her son studying in Canada, she encountered obstruction from Chinese authorities. The Chinese police, in a mocking tone, asked her, “Would you miss your son?” Xiao Yanrui’s mother retorted, “Would you miss your mom?”
There is also a group of young people in this world who share the same ethnicity as Niu Tengyu but are the primary win-over targets of the Chinese communist united front policy. They are those free-world citizen of Chinese communist family background. Some of them excel in calculation and navigate adeptly between the conflicting identities of free-world citizens and supporters of the Chinese authoritarian regime. They use the guise of political correctness to promote their so-called diversity and inclusivity defined by themselves, which has become their defense of the tyranny’s diversity from tyrants around the world, allowing them to find a fashionable excuse to flatter tyrants like Xi Jinping. They are not entirely ignorant of what is happening in China, nor are they coerced by someone into their doing. Instead, they willingly, as privileged individuals of Chinese descent, come to China, an authoritarian state, to advance their careers, looking down upon the masses with a superior attitude and relishing the flowers and applause arranged for them by the authorities.
They have confirmed a cruel truth that even in the 21st century, freedom, this fundamental human right, is still perceived by many as a privilege and regarded by some as a source of their own sense of superiority. In China, the masses attempting to bypass the Great Firewall using VPNs to access the international internet is considered illegal. However, Eileen Gu, who holds significance for Chinese authority’s united front purposes, enjoys numerous freedoms in China, including unrestricted use of international social media platforms like Instagram and Twitter. Ironically, when someone brought up the Chinese government’s restrictions on people’s internet access to Eileen Gu, she defended the Chinese government by stating that anyone in China can download VPNs from the Google Play Store to connect to the international internet, which reminded me of an ancient Chinese story called Why Not Eat Meat Porridge (A Chinese story with similar ironic to the Let them eat cake).
Eileen Gu’s response to criticism from American netizens once again exhibited a form of elitist arrogance prevalent in the younger generation of the free world. When addressing questions from reporters regarding this criticism, she condescendingly mocked her critics as uneducated individuals who will never become Olympic champions. Eileen Gu is a typical self-serving ethnic minority leftist youth who grew up in a white elite culture education and elite family, playing the racial card based on post-colonial bullshit to gain an unfair competitive advantage. They have never experienced life under the tyranny of their native culture’s political traditions alongside those sharing their ethnicity. Even her grandparents were among the beneficiaries of the totalitarian government that is currently persecuting Niu Tengyu. However, such a group of people ardently play the rhetoric of affirmative action to position themselves as victims, attempting to deconstruct the cornerstone of Western values. Their critique of Western civilization is so sharp because they know that in a society of free speech, their cynical bullshit will only be praised or acquiesced by everyone, unlike what happened to Niu Tengyu, who offended Xi Jinping in China.
What has happened to this world? How can those who oppress others claim themselves as victims? International flights take off and land daily at Beijing International Airport, carrying numerous unsympathetic privileged individuals from so-called minority groups in the free world like Eileen Gu. These youth possess a keen sense of fashion trends and share hippie yet self-righteous short videos on TikTok. Their birthdays always file revelry, music, and whiskey, while their adolescence is always with sunshine, flowers, and pampering from others. But what about the young people who truly live under the tyranny of their native culture’s political traditions? Don’t they deserve to enjoy freedom like Eileen Gu? Don’t they have the right to grow up under the sunshine and flowers, receiving all the goodwill from the world as young Westerners do?
