5 Ways the CCP’s Persecution of Falun Gong Changed China
In July 1999, the CCP officially banned Falun Gong. We've talked about this spiritual practice on the show before.
Well, it turns out, this persecution has deeply affected many aspects of Chinese society—even for people who don't know or care what it is.
Remember to leave QUESTIONS for me to answer on the show. Leave them as replies below.

One of the best videos out there on the topic!
Chris & Shelly, I have enjoyed you both very much, but I am observing a sad problem in your coverage: you are anti communist about China, but pro communist about the USA. Unfortunately, I need to stop supporting you through Patreon and find another use for my funds.
Huh? Please elaborate, Heidi, which video do we need to watch a second time, because I must have missed something.
When the representative of an international tribunal reads his statement publicly condemning the CCP for forced human organ harvesting .... on his Apple computer made in China, am I the only one that finds this horrifying, ironic and discouraging? How can those of us in the international community support change in China effectively?
If it is an easier and more secure tool to use in the fight against oppression, shouldn't the irony be enjoyed instead, as it plays a role in changing the future for the better? The Apple - Foxconn team seems to be moving production out of mainland China anyway, for the reasons you rightly point out. I treasured my iphone4 for 7 years, leaving the company for the reasons, again, you rightly address, but am considering returning now. They have learned many lessons in the last decade, I think..
You say that the people of Hong Kong is the bedst hope, and they do know how to protest. I just fear that at some point the ccp will have had enough and end it with force. That way main land chinese won't get any "dangerous" ideas, or do you think the ccp will let them have their freedom as it would be more truble then it is worth?
Xi looks at the great leap forward and goes hold my beer.
Excellent journalism.
