5 Times China Detained Foreign Citizens (for No Good Reason)
During the whole CCP-detains-two-Canadians incident last week, we decided to look into all the other foreigners detained in China for no good reason (except politics, which some authorities think is the only reason). Here are just 5 interesting cases out of dozens.

So technically, when visiting mainland China, you can just be detained if they want to make a statement, don't like your loud mouth, or if your country does something displeases the "communist" party... make me feel really comfortable about going back.
Chris, why didn't you tell us that you had an acting role in the movie Mortal Engines? 😆
You guys were in Taiwan and chatting about "here in China (mainland's ) practices. I think most of your followers should know that. BTW: TPE airline luggage tag to the "pink backpack" there too! hehe
I have a question; A local university stopped and rejected the funding for the Confucius Institute because the government says. "There is across-the-board agreement that these institutes do not serve freedom of expression and freedom of inquiry." Is this true? If how deep does this go and who are they?
The Confucius Institute is a branch of the CCP's External Propaganda Department. It's aim is to spread communist and pro-Beijing propaganda under the guise of teaching Chinese language and "culture". In addition to spreading propaganda, the Confucius Institute also establishes surveillance of Chinese students and ethnic Chinese in Western academia, as well as conducting espionage on various other countries' intellectual properties, advanced learning, technology and archived records.
The Chinese Communist Party make Trump and his cronies look like the Keystone Cops. It amazing that such crooks believe that the way to international superiority is to steal the intellectual property of more free and creative countries, place poorer countries in debt, swamp the US with cheap illicit drugs, and bully everyone not following the party's dictates for the gain of a few gangsters & their families. How "superior" does that make them? Who shoots down their own unarmed students? The Chinese Communist Party does. While at Kent State 2 were killed and 12 wounded (certainly horrific), at Tiananmen Square, troops with automatic rifles and tanks killed between 180 to 10,454 unarmed civilians. What kind of society breeds soldiers lacking simple compassion that they could fire on unarmed students? What could possibly allow them to justify their actions? When will we all agree on a more humane system and throw people responsible for such atrocities and graft in prison.

Why are people leaving Patreon? I only saw that one white supremacist was removed from Patreon and Youtube.
