The '''Chinese Communist Party''' (''pinyin'' ''' Gongchandang''') or '''CCP''' is the [[left-wing]] [[single party]] [[socialist]] ruling regime of [[Peoples Republic of China]] (PRC).  The party is infamous for placing no value on human life and its ruthlessness to maintain and exercise power.  According to the authoritative ''Black Book of Communism'', an estimated 65 million Chinese died as a result of the CCP's merciless attempts to create a new “[[socialist]]” China. Anyone who gets in the way is done away with by execution, imprisonment or forced famine.  No single individual of the CCP has ever faced an international tribunal for crimes against humanity.  Conversely, the Chinese Communist Party has been rewarded with admission to the [[World Trade Organization]], the [[General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade]], and was granted Most Favored Nation trade status by the [[United States]] after the [[Tiananmen massacre]] and during the mass arrests and extermination of [[Falun Gong]] practitioners.  This enhanced standing of the CCP among global power brokers and elite has only strengthened the grip of control the Chinese Communist Party has on the lives of the Chinese people who remain without any [[democracy|democratic]] rights in the nation of their birth.

China's current state constitution was written exclusively by Communist Party members and adopted in 1982. The Preamble reads,
 
−
{{quotebox-float|Under the leadership of the Communist Party of China and the guidance of [[Marxism-Leninism]], [[Mao Zedong Thought]], Deng Xiaoping Theory and the Important Thought of the ‘Three Represents,’ the Chinese people of all ethnic groups will continue to adhere to the people’s democratic [[dictatorship]] and the [[socialist]] road, persevere in reform and opening to the outside world, steadily improve socialist institutions, develop the socialist market economy, develop socialist democracy, improve the socialist legal system, work hard and self-reliantly to modernize the country’s industry, agriculture, national defense and science and technology step by step, and promote a coordinated development of material, political and spiritual civilizations to turn China into a socialist country that is prosperous, powerful, democratic, and culturally advanced.}}

The unity within the Chinese Communist Party is shattering as all the three factions (Shanghai, Beijing and Zhenjiang) in the party are embroiled in a feud.  The Shanghai faction is led by Jiang Zemin, Beijing faction is led by Hu Jintao, and Zhenjiang faction is led by President Xi Jinping.  Each one of the three is trying to nullify the influence of the other faction.  The Jiang faction is suspected of plotting a [[coup d'etat]] for several years with the intention of replacing Xi Jinping.<ref>https://www.breakinglatest.news/news/zhou-xiaohui-xi-zhizhi-points-out-the-secret-of-the-attempted-assassination-of-the-political-and-legal-department/</ref>

Since 2012, when Xi Jinping took office political oppression has intensified and it has blanketed China. Press, social media, film, arts, literature and the Internet in China is heavily censored. Many intellectuals, Tibetans, Uighurs, lawyers, university students have been persecuted for voicing their opinions in favor of democracy.

Cracks appeared in Xi Jinping's hold on the Chinese Communist Party over the catastrophic handling of the [[CCP pandemic]].  This opened an opportunity for the Shanghai faction and the Beijing faction.

The Bank of China is owned by the Chinese government and closely connected with the Chinese military and intelligence services.

{{Quotebox-float|"We know that the Trump administration is in a trade war with us, so why can’t we fix the Trump administration? Why did China and the US used to be able to settle all kinds of issues between 1992 and 2016?" he asked. "I’m going to throw out something maybe a little bit explosive here.

On November 28, 2020, Prof. Di Dongsheng, vice dean of the School of International Relations at Renmin University, told students in [[Beijing]] how the [[People's Republic of China]] was able to settle disputes with prior American administrations because they have people at the top of America, specifically on [[Wall Street]].<ref>https://pjmedia.com/news-and-politics/stacey-lennox/2020/12/08/tucker-carlsons-monologue-on-a-chinese-professors-recent-speech-should-terrify-you-n1197202</ref>  But when [[President Trump]] was elected, all that Chinese influence went away.  "Wall Street can't fix Trump," the professor told the students.<ref>https://youtu.be/yB07iLF2ZWw</ref>

As China's economy has expanded since the 1980s, the scale of corruption has grown dramatically. A 2011 report released by China's central bank estimated that from the mid-1990s to 2008, corrupt officials who fled overseas took with them $120 billion in stolen funds.  A 2012 [[Washington, DC]]-based think tank estimated that total illicit financial flows out of China in the decade from 2001 through 2010 amounted to $2.74 trillion, over 20 times as much as the official CCP account in a closely parallel timeframe.<ref>The 2012 Bo Xilai Affair highlighted the degree to which the families of top Party officials were able to parlay access to political power into vast personal wealth. 
 
−
 
 
−
Bo sat on the 25-member Party Politburo and Central Committee, and was Party Secretary of a powerful municipality.  Bo styled himself as a champion of the poor and dispossessed, supporting the state-run economy, lead a crackdown on supposed organized crime bosses, and fanned nostalgia for the violent [[Antifa|Anti-fascist]] Cultural Revolution of the 1960s and 1970s.  Bo’s rhetoric was critical of the [[income gap]] and broken promises to the [[working class]] that accompanied China’s rise to become the world’s second-largest economy. Bo was widely reported as a candidate for promotion to the Politburo Standing Committee.
 
−
 
 
−
Bo’s wife was convicted of [[murder]] of a British businessman in August 2012.  Bo’s vice mayor was convicted of “bending the law for selfish ends, defection, abuse of power and bribe-taking” in September 2012.  Days later, the Party Politburo expelled Bo from the Party’s ranks and announced that it was transferring his case to state judicial authorities. The Party investigation concluded that Bo “bore major responsibility” in the cases of his vice-mayor’s actions and his wife’s involvement in the murder, and alleged that he “took advantage of his office to seek profits for others and received huge bribes personally and through his family.”  [[Social media]] brought the scandal to light, creating problems for existing leadership.</small></ref>  In 2012, the following internal data leaked out: 90 percent of central party committee members had relatives and children who had emigrated to foreign countries; 85 percent of top officials were ready to abandon their positions and escape the country. That's why China doesn't allow any officials above mid-level local positions to hold their own passports.<ref>https://www.theepochtimes.com/the-chinese-communist-party-is-sinking-like-the-titanic-but-officials-have-a-plan_3382776.html</ref>  The problems grew out of socialism's [[single-party control|one-party system]] model with a lack of [[checks and balances]].

With 85 million dues-paying members, just over 6% of China's population of 1.35 billion, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is the largest political party in the world with some 80+ million members (2013 data).  The party exercises extreme control over every aspect of the Chinese people's lives, from what they see on [[social media]] to how many children they can have.  The Chinese Communist party tries to be all-powerful.  The entire structure of the Communist Party, from top to bottom, encourages corruption and abuses.  In this type of system, the party takes all the credit when things go well, but it bears none of the responsibility when things go wrong.
 
−
 
 
−
Since 2011 the Chinese government's Internal Security budget, which is also known as their Stability Maintenance budget, has been larger than their military budget. The Communist Party considers any threat to stability as a threat to their rule.

===Politburo Standing Committee===
 
−
{{See also|Politburo Standing Committee}}
 
−
The 7 member Politburo Standing Committee (PSC) is the most senior leadership body with each member ranked 1 thru 7, not as equals.  Each shoulders primary responsibility for a specific portfolio.  The Paramount Leader, Xi Jinping as of 2020, is ranked No. 1. Past Paramount Leaders have been in order of succession:
 
−
*[[Mao Zedong]] (1949-1976)
 
−
*[[Hua Guofeng]] (1976-1978)
 
−
*[[Deng Xiaoping]] (1978-1989)
 
−
*[[Jiang Zemin]] (1989-2003)
 
−
*[[Hu Jintao]] (2002-2012)
 
−
*[[Xi Jinping]] (2012–present)
 
−
 
 
−
The Paramount Leader usually holds three positions, Party General Secretary, President or [[Head of State]], and Chairman of the Central Military Commission or [[Commander-in-chief]] of the [[People's Liberation Army]].  The Central Military Commission is not under civilian control of the State Council.  In the Chinese Communist party structure, the Central Military Commission is of equal rank as the civilian bureaucracy.
 
−
 
 
−
The second-ranked PSC member serves as Premier of the State Council, which manages the state bureaucracy. He is effectively China's top economic official.
 
−
 
 
−
The third-ranked PSC member serves as Chairman of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress (NPC), China's unicameral legislature.
 
−
 
 
−
The fourth-ranked PSC member serves as chairman of a political advisory body, the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC) National Committee. He is responsible for outreach to non-Communist groups, such as China's eight minor political parties, all of which pledge loyalty to the Communist Party, and state-sanctioned religious associations.
 
−
 
 
−
The fifth-ranked PSC member heads the Party Secretariat, which oversees the Party bureaucracy. He also has responsibility for ideology and propaganda.
 
−
 
 
−
The sixth-ranked PSC member heads the Party's Central Disciplinary Inspection Commission (CDIC), the Party's internal discipline enforcement arm which polices the Party's ranks.
 
−
 
 
−
The seventh-ranked PSC member serves as the top-ranked State Council vice premier and assists the Premier with his duties.
 
−
 
 
−
As of 2021 the Politburo Standing Committee consisted of, ranked one to seven, Xi Jinping (General Secretary), Li Keqiang, Wang Yang, Li Zhanshu, [[Wang Huning]], Zhao Leji, and Han Zheng.
 
−
 
 
−
PSC members also head Party “Leading Small Groups” (LSGs) for their policy areas. LSGs are secretive bodies intended to facilitate cross-agency coordination in implementation of Politburo Standing Committee decisions.  China has no coordinating body analogous to the U.S. [[National Security Council]]. “Leading Small Groups” at the top of the Party and the State seek to bring together representatives from multiple agencies to coordinate and build consensus around policy in specific areas.  The phenomenon is known as “stove-piping,” in which individual ministries and other hierarchies share information up and down the chain of command, but not horizontally with each other.
 
−
 
 
−
===Politburo===
 
−
Behind the Politburo Standing Committee is the 25 member Politburo, sometimes referred to as the Party's Politburo or full Politburo.  Some members of the 25 member Party Politburo hold duel responsibilities, such as provincial governors or high-ranking military.  All 7 Members of the Politburo Standing Committee are also members, as well as two vice chairmen of the Central Military Commission.
 
−
 
 
−
Although the seven members of the Politburo Standing Committee are ranked, from one to seven, regular Politburo members are of equal rank under the principles of Democratic Socialism.  Because of its relatively unwieldy size and the geographic diversity of its members, the full Politburo is not involved in day-to-day decision-making.
 
−
 
 
−
All Party Politburo members, including the 7 member Politburo Standing Committee, are also members of the lower 200+ Central Committee.
 
−
 
 
−
While the head of the Discipline Inspection Commission sits on the 7 member Politburo Standing Committee, the heads of the next three most powerful departments in the Party bureaucracy sit on the regular Politburo. Those departments are:
 
−
* The Organization Department: responsible for the recruitment of Party members and their training, career development, and assignment to jobs across the party and state, the legislatures, state-owned corporations, universities, and other public institutions.  Under the principles of [[Democratic Socialism]], selections are made throughout [[academia]], state enterprises and [[trade union]]s by the Organization Department for entry level positions as delegates to the Party Congress.
 
−
 
 
−
* The Propaganda (or “Publicity”) Department: responsible for the Party's messaging and for control of the media and ideology. In coordination with the Organization Department, the Propaganda Department manages the leaders of the Ministry of Culture; the newly constituted General Administration Press and Publication, Radio, Film, and Television; the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences; ''The People’s Daily''; the Xinhua News Agency; and other media organizations.
 
−
 
 
−
* The Central Commission of Politics and Law: responsible for ensuring Party control over the internal security apparatus. Its full membership is not publicized.  Known members include the President of the Supreme People's Court, the Procurator-General of the Supreme People's Procuratorate (China's chief prosecutor), the Minister of Public Security, the Minister of State Security, and the Minister of Justice.
 
−
 
 
−
===Central Committee===
 
−
:{{See also|Democratic Socialism}}
 
−
The Central Committee of about 200 members and 170 Alternates is elected by the approximately 2,000 delegates of the 5-year Party Congresses and is required to meet at least once a year. Each meeting is known as a ''plenum'' (or plenary session) and approves major personnel decisions.
 
−
 
 
−
According to the Party's constitution, the Politburo Standing Committee and full Politburo derive their power from the Central Committee, whose members “elect” the Politburo, Politburo Standing Committee, and Party General Secretary.  In practice, it's a top-down organization, with [[incumbent]] Politburo and Politburo Standing Committee officials providing a list of nominees for advancement to the Politburo and Politburo Standing Committee which the Central Committee then ratifies.
 
−
 
 
−
According to the party's Constitution, the Party General Secretary must also be a member of the Politburo Standing Committee.
 
−
 
 
−
The Political and Legal Affairs Committee (PLAC) oversees the public security bureau, the procuratorate, and judicial systems. The Political and Legal Affairs Committee has the power to control personnel and resources in the police, Ministry of State Security, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the fields of finance, culture, education, science and technology, and health departments throughout the country.
 
−
 
 
−
====Central Discipline Inspection Commission====
 
−
:{{See also|Central Commission for Discipline Inspection|Gestapo|KGB}}
 
−
The Discipline Inspection Commissions themselves are rife with corruption.  When the Central Discipline Inspection Commission conducts investigations, they are frequently politically motivated, even if they uncover real wrongdoing.  Officials who keep on the right side of their superiors and colleagues may engage in large-scale corruption, while other officials may be investigated for lesser infractions because they have fallen afoul of powerful officials.
 
−
 
 
−
Discipline inspection organizations of the Party consist of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, local Party commissions for discipline inspection at various levels and the grassroots Party commissions for discipline inspection. According to the People's Revolutionary Army (PRA), the Discipline Inspection Commission is tasked with enforcing discipline and handling cases, foster the capability to assist the Party committees to improve the Party's style of work, organize and coordinate the fight against corruption, and do a better job of fighting against corruption and improving the Party's style of work in the army, so as to make new contributions to the army building in an all-round way.
 
−
 
 
−
The Central Commission for Discipline Inspection works under the leadership of the Party Central Committee.
 
−
 
 
−
The local Party commissions for discipline inspection at various levels and the grassroots Party commissions for discipline inspection work under the dual leadership of the Party committee at the same level and Party commission for discipline inspection at the next higher level.
 
−
 
 
−
The term of each Party commission for discipline inspection is the same as that of the Party committee at the same level.
 
−
 
 
−
The plenary session of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection elects its standing committee, secretary and deputy secretaries and reports this to the Party Central Committee for approval.
 
−
 
 
−
The plenary sessions of local Party commissions for discipline inspection at various levels elect the standing committee and secretary and deputy secretaries, and the results are passed by the Party committee at the same level and reported to the Party committee at the next higher level for approval.
 
−
 
 
−
Whether a discipline inspection commission or discipline inspection members for a grassroots Party committee shall be established or put into position is to be decided by a Party organization at the next higher level in light of specific conditions.
 
−
 
 
−
A general Party branch committee and a Party branch committee shall include discipline inspection members.
 
−
 
 
−
The Central Commission for Discipline Inspection may, if needed, accredit a discipline inspection group or discipline inspectors to central Party and state organs.
 
−
 
 
−
Leaders of the discipline inspection group or discipline inspectors may attend, as non-voting members, related conferences organized by Party leaders of the organ concerned.
 
−
 
 
−
Their work must be supported by the Party leaders and organizations of the organ concerned.
 
−
 
 
−
====610 Office====
 
−
The [[610 Office]] is the main organization created to eliminate Falun Gong. It is nominally subordinate to the Political and Legal Affairs Committee. The Political and Legal Affairs Committee purview was expanded after the 610 Office was incorporated into it.
 
−
 
 
−
With a structure extending from top to bottom throughout the Party, government, and [[military]], it has the power to command all police and judicial organs. This organization is akin to the Chinese Communist Party's Central Cultural Revolution Group, and is dedicated to carrying out the systematic eradication of the practice of Falun Gong. It is an ''ad hoc'' agency at the highest levels endowed with extraordinary and extralegal power.
 
−
 
 
−
The 610 Office derives its name from the date of its founding, June 10, 1999.  After that date, almost every Party branch, from the province to the county to the district level, established its own 610 Office. The source of the 610 Office's ability to operate extralegally and with impunity is not drawn from the State. Neither the People's Congress nor the State Council has authorized its actions. Rather, approval and support for its deeds comes from the CCP. Each 610 Office takes orders from the 610 Office one level above it, going up to the Central Committee 610 Office. The local 610 Offices also take orders from the leadership team of the CCP Committee at its same organizational level.<ref>[http://www.europarl.europa.eu/meetdocs/2009_2014/documents/droi/dv/506_yiyangxia_/506_yiyangxia_en.pdf The illegality of China's Falun Gong crackdown—and today's rule of law repercussions], Yiyang Xia. World Organization to Investigate the Persecution of Falun Gong.</ref>
 
−
 
 
−
It later changed its name to the Central Leading Group on Dealing with Heretical Religions or Office of Maintaining Stability.
 
−
 
 
−
Official data of the annual reported expenditures from 13 local 610 Offices in various counties and districts across nine provinces in 2014 and 2015 are available online. The total expenditure for these branches, covering a population of some 14 million, was 8.9 million yuan ($1.37 million). If that ''[[per capita]]'' investment is applied to China's total population of 1.37 billion, the estimated annual budget for all 610 Offices nationwide is 879 million yuan ($135 million).  This represents only one part of the party-state apparatus involved in the suppression of Falun Gong.
 
−
 
 
−
The ultimate form of financial exploitation has been reported: the killing of Falun Gong detainees and the extraction of their organs to be sold at high prices to Chinese patients and foreign “transplant tourists” as part of a multibillion-dollar industry.<ref>
 
−
https://freedomhouse.org/sites/default/files/FH_2017_BattleForChinasSpirit_Falun_Gong_0.pdf</ref>  Judicial systems sold organs to the transplant centres.

===Party Congress===
 
−
 
 
−
Approximately 2,000 delegates which are held every five years. Congress delegates rubber stamp the Party General Secretary's report to the Congress, which serves as a statement of the Party's positions and an outline of the Party's agenda for the coming five years.  The Politburo's Organization Department: selects nominees throughout [[academia]], state enterprises, [[trade union]]s, the [[military]] and other public institutions based on their commitment to Democratic Socialism ideology . The Party nominates all candidates, usually nominating 20% to 50% more candidates than available positions.  Under this system of rigorous ideological screening and [[single party control]] where dissenters and skeptics of the ''[[status quo]]'' are weeded out, the most manipulative [[sociopath]]s can seize the opportunity and rise to the top.  Provincial-level People's Congresses and the People's Liberation Army then elect deputies from among the nominees. 
 
−
 
 
−
The Congress meets for a 10-day-long annual full session in March and approves whatever nominees, budgets, and programs the Central Committee puts before them.

We, as revolutionary humanitarians, do not want deaths, but if history confronts us with a choice between deaths of Chinese and those of Americans, we’d have to pick the latter, as, for us, it is more important to safeguard the lives of the Chinese people and the life of our Party.|||Chi Haotian, ex-Vice-Chairman of China’s Military Commissionm<ref>https://www.facebook.com/SenatorTedCruz/posts/4099834303462172</ref>}}

−
The People's Liberation Army (PLA), with well over 2 million active personnel and more than 500 million reserves, is not a national army belonging to the state. Rather, it serves as the Party's armed wing. The PLA's Central Military Commission (CMC) is of equivalent rank to the State Council, China's cabinet, meaning it is not under the civilian control of the State Council. The Communist Party's constitution states that “the Party commands the overall situation and coordinates the efforts of all quarters, and the Party must play the role as the core of leadership among all other organizations at corresponding levels.” The Party constitution explicitly states that the Communist Party “persists in its leadership over the People’s Liberation Army and other armed forces of the people.”<ref>http://news.xinhuanet.com/english/special/18cpcnc/2012-11/18/c_131982575.htm.</ref>
 
−
 
 
−
The Party's Central Military Commission exercises unified command over China's armed forces, consisting of the active and reserve forces of China's military, the People's Liberation Army; a paramilitary force, the People's Armed Police Force (PAP); and a militia.  The PLA also has a
 
−
domestic stability mandate, on top of its national defense mandate.  The PLA Reserve Force and a paramilitary force, the People's Armed Police Force play a major role in putting down civil unrest.
 
−
 
 
−
The General Secretary of the Communist Party serves as chairman. The rest is comprised of uniformed officers. They are two vice chairmen (who serve on the Party's Politburo), the State Councilor for military affairs (who serves as Minister of Defense), the directors of the PLA's four general departments, and the commanders of the Navy, the Air Force, and the strategic and conventional missile forces.  Senior military officers also sit on Party “Leading Small Groups” on such issues as foreign affairs, [[national security]], and Taiwan affairs.
 
−
 
 
−
The responsibilities of the PLA's four general departments are:
 
−
*General Staff Department: operations, cyber and electronic warfare, communications/informatization, intelligence, training, force structure, mobilization, and foreign affairs;
 
−
*General Political Department: Communist Party affairs, personnel, military media and cultural troupes, and security;
 
−
*General Logistics Department: financial affairs and audits; housing, food, uniforms, and other supplies; military healthcare; military transportation; and capital construction; and
 
−
*General Armament Department: weapons and equipment needs, research and development, electronics and information infrastructure, and the manned space program.

===General Political Department===

The China Association for International Friendly Contacts (CAIFC) is the public name for the PLA General Political Department's International Liaison Department (GPD/LD).  The department conducts ideological and political work on foreign armies and with the aim of dampening their morale and breaking them up.  [[CAIFC]] was established in 1984 by Deng, and his daughter Rong has been a vice-president of the organization since 1990.<ref>https://qz.com/933971/the-intricate-ties-between-the-woman-who-paid-16-million-for-trumps-condo-and-chinas-power-elite/</ref>  A

According to an investigation by the World Organization to Investigate the Persecution of Falun Gong, over 100 different military hospitals have developed or expanded their organ transplant facilities, with over 2,000 medical personnel involved. These include military general hospitals which belong directly to the Central Military Commission, all military branch general hospitals, general hospitals which belong to the seven regional military commands, hospitals affiliated with military medical universities, military hospitals coded with numbers, and armed police general hospitals. The transplant volume performed by Chinese military hospitals is the largest of any military in the world. They also play a role in resolving core technical issues in organ transplantation and supporting civilian hospitals with living organ supplies and technical assistance.<ref>https://endtransplantabuse.org/an-update-chapter-twelve-a-state-crime/</ref>

===Unrestricted warfare===
 
−
:{{see also|Biological warfare|CCP global pandemic}}
 
−
Since the publication in 1999 of ''Unrestricted Warfare: Two Air Force Senior Colonels on Scenarios for War and the Operational Art in an Era of Globalization'', by  Qiao Liang and Wang Xiangsui, it has been understood that hard-line elements within the Chinese National Security community have been envisioning and positioning themselves for war with the USA.  As the title suggests, this book subverts the strategic thinking and rules of "old-style warfare”, proposes “new types of warfare” and explores military tactics, strategy and organization in the age of globalization.  The “unrestricted” part of “unrestricted warfare” avoids direct military confrontation and seeks instead to conquer through non-kinetic means.
 
−
 
 
−
The authors argued that the notion that “national defense being the country’s main security goal is somewhat outdated, at least rather inadequate."  Under such circumstances, a country, especially a weak one, must go beyond the limits of "traditional war" in order to win when it is faced with an opponent stronger than itself. 
 
−
[[File:CCP Unrestricted Warfare.PNG|right|500px|thumb]]
 
−
"Traditional war" follows certain rules or boundaries, for example, protections for the civilians and civilian facilities, humanitarian treatment to [[POW]]s, banning the use of [[weapons of mass destruction]], etc. These principles were formally established in a series of international agreements.  "Unrestricted warfare" means going beyond the limit, whether it is material, spiritual, ethical or technical; and whether it is called 'range', ‘restriction’, ‘restraint’, ‘boundary’, ‘rules’, ‘law’, ‘limit’, or ‘taboo’ ".  In “unrestricted warfare” there is no distinction between "front and rear", "military and civilian”, country and territory. It is not restrained by moral and ethical limits. Any person and any facility can be considered as a military target.  In order to achieve the goal, you can do whatever you want.
 
−
 
 
−
Unrestricted warfare tactics are divided into three categories, "military, trans-military and non-military.  To operate “unrestricted warfare”, any item in the table of the three categories can be combined with one or more other items as needed to form "combined tactics". The authors specifically pointed out in the note: "The three categories of operations here are real wars, not metaphors or descriptions."
 
−
 
 
−
When all the boundaries of “old-style warfare” are broken, there is only one reality left:  the entire human society is treated as a battlefield.  There is no doubt that the [[United States]] is the simulated enemy against whom the unrestricted warfare was formulated. The reasoning goes that the Peoples Republic of China, being the weaker party compared with the United States in terms of military technology and power justifies [[tactic]]s described in ''Unrestricted Warfare'', since conventional tactics may not ensure victory against the US.<ref>https://jianglinswritings.blogspot.com/2020/05/unrestricted-warfare-rulelessness-is.html</ref>

In 2015, Chinese military scientists discussed how to weaponize SARS coronaviruses to "cause the enemy’s medical system to collapse." In a 263-page document, written by People's Liberation Army scientists and senior Chinese public health officials and obtained by the US State Department during its investigation into the origins of COVID-19, suggests that SARS coronaviruses could herald a "new era of genetic weapons," and noted that they can be "artificially manipulated into an emerging human ­disease virus, then weaponized and unleashed in a way never seen before."<ref>https://www.zerohedge.com/covid-19/chinese-military-discussed-weaponizing-covid-2015-cause-enemys-medical-system-collapse</ref>

===Peoples Armed Police===
 
−
 
 
−
The People Armed Police (PAP) is a paramilitary component of China’s armed forces; its primary mission is internal security. Although the PAP has specialized units for a variety of functions, such as border security and firefighting, most units address internal security. PAP units are organized into contingents for each province, autonomous region, and centrally administered city. There are also a small number of mobile divisions available to deploy anywhere in the country to respond to crises.
 
−
 
 
−
In 2017, authorities announced that the PAP would be commanded by the Central Military Commission (CMC), removing the State Council from the chain of command and removing the PAP from the direct control of provincial authorities.<ref>https://www.scmp.com/news/china/policies-politics/article/2126039/reason-why-chinas-armed-police-will-now-only-take</ref>  Moreover, the changes removed all troops not involved in domestic security duties from the PAP. Following the changes, the PAP has become a force exclusively focused on domestic security that operates under the command of the CMC. Other types of PAP troops, such as firefighting and border defense, have been transferred to other central ministries.  Authorities also revised PAP funding to strengthen central control. Mirroring the organizational and administrative changes, the central government began to almost exclusively fund the PAP, thereby removing local and provincial funding streams.  Stronger central control of the PAP removes these troops from possible misuse by local power holders, deters potential challengers to Beijing’s authority, and enables the central government to deploy the forces to carry out its own strategic plans, such as consolidation of political control over the western provinces. However, the militarization of the PAP raises the prospect that domestic security concerns will be considered in military terms, further weakening what little remains of the rights of Chinese citizens, especially in the ethnic-minority dominated provinces featuring a heavy PAP presence.

:{{see also|People's Republic of China}}
 
−
The Party entrusts implementation of its policies and day-to-day administration of the country to the institution of the State, headed by the civilian State Council or Cabinet, which does not include the Central Military Commission. The State Council, also known as the Central People's
 
−
Government, includes the State's ministries and commissions and layers of “people’s governments” below the national level. The top State officials at every level of administration usually concurrently hold senior Party posts, to ensure Party control.  While the Foreign Ministry is a mere ministry under the State Council, the Central Military Commission of the People's Liberation is not. In the Chinese Communist Party hierarchy, the Central Military Commission is of equal rank to the civilian bureaucracy of the State Council that manages domestic and foreign affairs.
 
−
 
 
−
The State President serves as China's [[head of state]]. Since 1993, every Communist Party General Secretary has served concurrently as
 
−
State President, but the position is largely ceremonial and involves few duties other than meeting with foreign heads of state.  The State President and State Vice President rank below the Central Military Commission.  The Minister of Defense is actually the third most senior uniformed member of the Central Military Commission and is outside the operational chain of command of the People's Liberation Army.
 
−
 
 
−
To understand the political system of the People's Republic of China, there are two constitutions, a Party constitution and a state constitution.  Both constitutions make it clear that the Party exercises leadership of the political system, the economy, and society at large,
 
−
 
 
−
Party committees are embedded in the State Council, ministries under the State Council, the legislature, the courts, prosecutors’ offices, state-owned enterprises, and all other public institutions, such as universities and hospitals, as well as in most private companies and many non-governmental organizations.
 
−
 
 
−
At the sub-national level, provinces, counties, and townships all have a Party committee and a parallel people's government, with the Party Secretary of the Party committee serving as the geographic unit's top leader.

The Ministry of Health (MOH) and later the National Health and Family Planning Commission (NPFPC) led the health care system in the transplantation of organs.  Since organ transplantation has been made a high priority in the CCP's national strategy and heavily emphasized as a future emerging industry, a large number of organ transplant projects have been funded under major national programs. The Ministry of Health, the Ministry of Science and Technology, the Ministry of Education, other departments, and the military have invested heavily in research, development, and personnel training in transplantation technology to meet the needs of this rapidly-growing industry. New capabilities and techniques have emerged and been extensively spreading, allowing live organ transplantation in China to grow into a large, industrialized operation in less than two decades.

The MSS is the country’s main civilian intelligence and [[counterintelligence]] agency. Its missions include protecting China’s national security, securing political and social stability, conducting counterintelligence, and implementing the State Security Law and related laws.42 The provincial and municipal departments of the MSS are responsible for carrying out surveillance and domestic intelligence work. Some of the departments also carry out foreign intelligence work.

Chinese leaders rely on the MPS and the MSS as the primary forces for ensuring public order and controlling threats in the country. The MPS is responsible for domestic law enforcement, as well as overall maintenance of “social order,” riot control, and antiterror duties. Unlike the PAP

{{quotebox|"Since attaining power in 1949, the CCP has devoted the nation’s resources to destroying China’s traditional culture. This ill intention did not come from the CCP’s zeal for industrialization, nor from simple foolishness in worshipping [[Western civilization]]. Rather, it came from the CCP’s inherent ideological opposition to traditional Chinese culture. Thus, the CCP’s destruction of Chinese culture has been planned, well organized, and systematic, supported by the state’s use of violence. Since its establishment, the CCP has never stopped “revolutionizing” Chinese culture in the attempt to destroy its spirit completely.... the CCP’s destruction of traditional Chinese culture is a direct attack against Chinese [[morality]] and undermines the basis for peace and harmony in society.

The “philosophy” of the Communist Party completely contradicts the authentic traditional Chinese culture....Both Buddhism and Taoism are forms of theism, and believe in .... the karmic causality of good and evil. The Communist Party, on the contrary, not only believes in atheism, but also runs wild in defying the Tao.... Confucianism values family, but the ''[[Communist Manifesto]]'' clearly promulgates abolition of the family. ...Confucian culture promotes kindness to others, but the Communist Party encourages [[class struggle]]....

To gain and maintain power in China, the Communist Party first had to plant its [[immoral]] thoughts on Chinese soil. Mao Zedong claimed, “If we want to overthrow an authority, we must first make propaganda, and do work in the area of ideology.” The CCP realized that the violent communist theory, which is sustained with arms, is the refuse of Western thoughts and could not stand up to China’s profound 5,000-year cultural history. ...The CCP then completely destroyed traditional Chinese culture, so that [[Marxism]] and [[Lenin]]ism could take China’s political stage.<ref>http://www.ninecommentaries.com/english-6</ref>}}

In 1950, the CCP instructed its local governments to ban all unofficial religious faiths and secret societies.  The CCP stated that those “feudalistic” underground groups were mere tools in the hands of landlords, rich farmers, reactionaries, and special agents of the Kuomintang (KMT). In the nationwide crackdown, the government mobilized the classes they trusted to identify and persecute members of religious groups.

−
Governments at various levels were directly involved in disbanding such “superstitious groups,” such as communities of Christians, [[Catholic]]s, Taoists, and [[Buddhist]]s. They ordered all members of these churches, temples, and religious societies to register with government agencies and to repent for their involvement. Failure to do so would mean severe punishment.
 
−
 
 
−
In 1951, the government formally promulgated regulations stating that those who continued their activities in unofficial religious groups would face a life sentence or the [[death penalty]].
 
−
 
 
−
This movement persecuted a large number of kind-hearted and law-abiding believers in [[God]]. Incomplete statistics indicate that in the 1950s, the CCP persecuted at least 3 million religious believers and underground group members, some of whom were killed. The CCP searched almost every household across the nation and interrogated its members. The executions reinforced the CCP's message that communist ideology was the only legitimate ideology and the only legitimate faith.
 
−
 
 
−
The concept of “patriotic believers” soon emerged, and the state constitution protected only patriotic believers. The reality was that, whatever [[religion]] you believed in, there were only these criteria: You had to follow the CCP's instructions, and you had to acknowledge that the CCP was above all religions. If you were a Christian, the CCP was the God of the Christian God. If you were a Buddhist, the CCP was the Master Buddha of the Master Buddha. Among Muslims, the CCP was the Allah of the [[Allah]]. When it came to the Living Buddha in Tibetan Buddhism, the CCP would intervene, and itself choose who the Living Buddha would be.
 
−
 
 
−
The CCP left you no choice but to say and do what the CCP demanded you to say and do. All believers were forced to carry out the CCP's objectives while upholding their respective faiths in name only. Failing to do so would make you the target of the CCP's persecution and dictatorship.

===Sino-U.S. strategic relations===
 
−
Jin Canrong, a professor and associate dean of the School of International Studies at Beijing's Renmin University of China,<ref>https://archive.is/z5RMg</ref>  laid out a multi-pronged strategy involving a range of malign actions to subvert the United States while strengthening the Chinese regime.<ref>https://www.theepochtimes.com/mkt_breakingnews/xi-jinpings-adviser-outlines-plan-for-ccp-to-defeat-us-including-manipulating-elections_3748196.html</ref>  They include:
 
−
*interfering in U.S. elections,
 
−
*controlling the American market,
 
−
*cultivating global enemies to challenge the United States,
 
−
*stealing American technology,
 
−
*expanding Chinese territory, and
 
−
*influencing international organizations.
 
−
 
 
−
====Interfering in U.S. elections====
 
−
Jin Canrong suggested that the CCP should interfere in U.S. elections to bring pro-Beijing candidates to power. He singled out races for seats in the U.S. House of Representatives as an easy target.  “The Chinese government wants to arrange Chinese investments in every single congressional district to control thousands of voters in each district,” Jin said.
 
−
 
 
−
He noted with a population (at the time) of about 312 million and 435 congressional districts, roughly 750,000 residents live in each district.
 
−
“The voting rate in the United States is about 30 percent, which means around 200,000 residents in each congressional district vote for the representative in that district,” Jin said. “Normally the difference of votes between two candidates is 10,000 or less. If China has thousands of votes on hand, China will be the boss of the candidates.”  Jin said China's ambition is to control at least the U.S. House.  “The best scenario is China can buy the United States, and change the U.S. House of Representatives into the second Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress,” he said, referring to the committee that oversees the CCP's rubber-stamp legislature.
 
−
 
 
−
====Controlling the U.S. market====
 
−
Ramping up Chinese investments in the United States is another way to exert influence in the country's political system, Jin Canrong said, noting that this tactic has the added benefit of enriching Chinese business people and the CCP.  “The investment opportunities in the United States are relatively good,” he said. “The U.S. market is open—more open than the Japanese and European ones,” he continued, adding that its benefits include its size, transparency, and stability.
 
−
 
 
−
He said the Chinese regime wants Chinese business people to control the U.S. market, and also for them to develop their businesses in the country. To reach this goal, the Chinese regime had tried to negotiate with Washington for the U.S.-China Bilateral Investment Treaty (BIT). The agreement was actively negotiated for the decade prior to 2017, but fell off the agenda during President Donald Trump's administration.  Some U.S. companies wishing to enter the Chinese market, and the U.S.-China Business Council have advocated for the signing of a BIT.
 
−
 
 
−
====Fostering enemies of the U.S.====
 
−
Jin Canrong said the Chinese regime was at a strategic advantage due to the United States’ role as global enforcer: whenever there is a crisis in the world, the United States would have to intervene to maintain global stability, which in turn drains U.S. resources and diverts its attention away from China.  As examples, he cited the [[Afghan War|Afghanistan]] and [[Iraq war]]s, which he described as “completely not strategically valuable” endeavors that cost the United States “$6 trillion and 10,000 soldiers’ lives.”  The result was that the United States “wasted ten years [without being aware of China’s development], and let China grow big,” Jin said.
 
−
 
 
−
Jin said the CCP's “strategic task” was to make sure the United States has not less than four enemies.  Four enemies are needed to stretch the United States’ resources while bogging the government down in domestic debates over which threat to prioritize, Jin said.
 
−
 
 
−
Jin concluded that the United States only has three adversaries: “Terrorism is definitely an enemy of the United States. Russia looks like another one … Definitely, the United States treats us as a competitor … It’s not enough.”
 
−
 
 
−
The professor said that in the past few years, the CCP had tried to develop [[Brazil]] into an adversary of the United States, but was unsuccessful because Brazil “didn’t want to be improved.”  He said the CCP had pumped a lot of investment into Brazil in the bid to get its support on global issues, including taking stances against the United States. Xi had visited Brazil in 2014 and agreed to invest in [[infrastructure]] in the country's western region, as well as a [[railway]] to link ports in Brazil and [[Peru]].
 
−
 
 
−
Jin said the Chinese regime has given up on this approach and is trying to find a candidate to develop into a U.S. adversary.
 
−
 
 
−
Engaging in drawn-out negotiations with the United States is also an effective strategy to bog down the United States, while giving the regime the time to focus on developing itself, according to Jin. During such negotiations, the United States wouldn't take punitive actions against the CCP such as sanctions, and instead focus its energy on preparing and carrying out the talks. Meanwhile, the Chinese regime, which has no intention of negotiating in [[good faith]], would use the breathing space given to it over the course of the negotiations to solidify its power both inside and outside of China.
 
−
 
 
−
Xi's global strategy to bolster the regime's global power has two pillars, according to Jin. One is the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), the other is the Free Trade Area of the Asia-Pacific (FTAAP).
 
−
 
 
−
BRI, previously known as One Belt One Road, is a massive global investment strategy launched by the CCP in 2013 aimed at bolstering its economic and political influence across Asia, Europe, Africa, and South America. The project involves investments in infrastructure and natural resource projects in countries. It has been criticized by the United States and other countries as an example of “debt trap” diplomacy, that saddles developing countries with unsustainable debt burdens while allowing the communist regime to export its technology and governance abroad.  The professor also believed that Chinese-backed development banks, the New Development Bank and the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank, would work to Beijing's advantage, as countries that received loans from the banks would then be beholden to the regime, Jin said.  "We will be more powerful than the United States with more friends,” he said. “Then we can tell the United States that we are the only representative of the world.”
 
−
 
 
−
====Stealing American technology====
 
−
The professor admitted that the CCP has depended on stolen American technology to fuel its growth.  “China’s industry has a large output, but lacks certain technology,”Jin Canrong said. “In the past 30 years, we bought technology, 46 percent of which were from [[Germany]]. But the United States has the best technology, but it doesn’t sell to us.”  He added, “Americans think that Chinese [[hacker]]s steal a lot of their things. This may very well be true.” Jin said key technology for China's J-20 fighter jet and DF-41 intercontinental ballistic missile was stolen from the United States.
 
−
 
 
−
The regime is also eager to get its hands on American space technology.
 
−
 
 
−
In June 2016, China's Long March 7 rocket sent an orbital debris clean-up satellite Aolong-1 to space. Beijing claimed that Aolong-1 only brought space debris back to earth, but Jin suggested the satellite had another mission.  “The U.S. said that [Aolong-1] was collecting American satellites [from the space], and bringing them back to China,” Jin said. “We can disassemble [the American] satellites and reassemble them into Chinese ones.”
 
−
 
 
−
====Expanding regime territory====
 
−
Jin Canrong believed that the Chinese regime would occupy the whole of the South China Sea and Taiwan in the near future.

The CCP lays claim to almost all of the South China Sea bordered by the [[Philippines]], [[Vietnam]], [[Malaysia]], [[Brunei]], and Taiwan.  Beijing has sought to bolster its claims in the strategic waterways by building artificial islands in the area and building military outposts on them.  “In one and half years [in 2013 and 2014 under Xi’s administration], China has created more than 3,200 acres of territory. The other four claimant states have created only 100 acres in 45 years,” Jin said. Jin boasted about the regime's success in wresting control of the Scarborough Shoal from the Philippines in 2012 with the help of Chinese fishing boats and coast guard vessels.
 
−
 
 
−
“Even if the Philippines wants the United States to take over the reefs [in the South China Sea], the United States can’t guard them,” Jin said. “If the United States stations an [[aircraft carrier]] there, China can simply send 2,000 fishing boats and surround the carrier. Then the carrier doesn’t dare to fire at the fishing boats.”
 
−
 
 
−
In relation to Taiwan, the CCP has more ways to bring the democratic island under its control, Jin said. The regime views the self-ruled island as part of its territory and has vowed to bring Taiwan under its fold with force if necessary. For instance, the regime could bribe Taiwanese politicians, ban trade and tourism from China, convince the few remaining countries that recognize Taiwan diplomatically to switch to China, blocking Taiwan's participation in international organizations and meetings, and [[assassination|assassinating]] some Taiwanese to instill fear among the population.

====Influencing international organizations====
 
−
Jin Canrong also explained the CCP's plan to exert greater influence over global bodies such as the United Nations, the [[World Trade Organization]], the World Health Organization, [[Interpol]], the [[International Monetary Fund]], the International Olympic Committee, and the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD).
 
−
 
 
−
The Chinese regime's goal is for “all these international organizations to be controlled by China. We can appoint someone who speaks Chinese [who represents China] to be its leaders,” Jin said.
 
−
 
 
−
During his speech, Jin emphasized that Xi was unlike his predecessors in his ambitions. Previous CCP leaders, such as Deng Xiaoping, Jiang Zemin, and Hu Jintao worked hard to develop the regime's power but didn't dare to use it, he said.  “No matter how much power you have, it’s nothing if you don’t dare to use it,” Jin said. “Chairman Xi dares to use it. [Xi’s authorities] have the power, dare to use that power, and all of its attacks make the other party bleed.”
 
−
 
 
−
Xi's ambitions, however, cannot be revealed to the outside world, the professor said.  When Xi took power in 2012, he urged the country to realize the “Chinese dream.” This meant becoming a “moderately well-off” country by 2021, and then a “strong, democratic, civilized, harmonious, and modern socialist country” by 2049.
 
−
 
 
−
Jin explained that Xi's target is actually to replace the United States as the world's only superpower by 2049.  “[Chinese] Ministry of Foreign Affairs keeps on saying [at press briefings] that China loves peace. But no reporters at the press briefings believe this,” Jin said.

===Xi Jinping Thought===
 
−
In October 2017 an amendment including Xi's name was added to the CCP's party constitution, marking the first time a living leader's name was added since Mao Zedong, reflecting Xi's standing within the Communist Party.  The amendment was approved by all 2,300 delegates attending the party congress, is called "Xi Jinping Thought for the New Era of Socialism With Chinese Special Characteristics."
 
−
 
 
−
The move placed Xi on the same level as Mao and Deng Xiaoping, whose names also appear in the party constitution in articles reflecting their principles. The political principles of Jiang Zemin and Hu Jintao, Xi's predecessors, were added to the party constitution, but their names were not.
 
−
 
 
−
''[[The New York Times]]'' Chris Buckley notes that Xi's authority "is not directly comparable to the almost godlike influence Mao commanded," but, at the same time, "the Chinese economy, state and military are much more powerful now than they were under Mao, or even under Deng, which gives Mr. Xi far more global influence than his predecessors."<ref>https://www.businessinsider.com/china-xi-jinping-and-chinese-economy-2017-10</ref>
 
−
 
 
−
Xi Jinping Thought is an effort to avoid the demise of Communist party power such as happened in the [[Soviet Union]] as the result of ''[[Perestroika]]'' and ''[[Glasnost]]'' reform movements instituted by Soviet General Secretary [[Mikhail Gorbachev]].

===Three warfares doctrine===
 
−
The Three Warfares Doctrine consists of psychological warfare ([[psyops]]), media warfare ([[propaganda]] and [[fake news]]), and legal warfare ([[lawfare]]).
 
−
 
 
−
The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) uses propaganda and influence operations as a means of projecting its power and weakening its enemies. Chief amongst the targets for these kinds of operations is the United States. These operations are coordinated and directed by the CCP's [[United Front Work Department]] (UFWD).<ref>https://www.uscc.gov/sites/default/files/Research/China's%20Overseas%20United%20Front%20Work%20-%20Background%20and%20Implications%20for%20US_final_0.pdf</ref>
 
−
 
 
−
The CCP's United Front system mobilizes the party's “friends” to strike the party's enemies. The system was greatly energized and expanded by Xi Jinping. It operates inside foreign political parties, diaspora communities, colleges and corporations, all with the goal of promoting the party's interests. The express goals of the United Front system include undermining social cohesion, exacerbating racial tension, and influencing politics.<ref>https://www.aspi.org.au/report/party-speaks-you</ref>

−
# '''Promoting Western Constitutional Democracy:''' An attempt to undermine the current leadership and the "[[socialism with Chinese characteristics]]" system of governance.  Including ''the [[separation of powers]], the multi-party system, [[general election]]s, and independent judiciaries''.
 
−
# '''Promoting “universal values” in an attempt to weaken the theoretical foundations of the Party's leadership.'''  That ''“the West’s values are the prevailing norm for all human civilization”'', that ''“only when China accepts Western values will it have a future”''.
 
−
# '''Promoting civil society in an attempt to dismantle the ruling party's social foundation,'''  i.e. that ''[[individual rights]] are paramount and ought to be immune to obstruction by the state''.
 
−
# '''Promoting [[Neoliberalism]], attempting to change China's Basic Economic System,''' i.e. ''unrestrained economic liberalization, complete [[privatization]], and total marketization''.
 
−
# '''Promoting [[the West]]’s idea of [[journalism]],''' challenging China’s principle that the [[media]] and publishing system should be subject to Party discipline.
 
−
# '''Promoting historical [[nihilism]], trying to undermine the history of the CCP and of New China.'''  For example ''to deny the [[scientific]] and guiding value of [[Mao Zedong thought]]''.
 
−
# '''Questioning Reform and Opening and the socialist nature of socialism with Chinese characteristics.'''  For example, saying ''“We have deviated from our Socialist orientation”'' such as occurred after ''Glasnost'' or "openness" eased censorship restrictions in the Soviet Union.

Since the Tiannanmen massacre the party is obsessed with stability, deploying a vast internal security apparatus to head off protests or, once they erupt, to prevent them from spreading. The government is constantly talking about 'stability maintenance' which is coded language for ensuring the party's rule.  The domestic security apparatus includes an 800,000-strong police force under the Ministry of Public Security and a 1.5 million-strong paramilitary force, the People's Armed Police, which reports to both the Party's Central Military Commission and, through the Ministry of Public Security, to the State Council.  Other agencies involved in internal security include the Party's Propaganda Department, which plays an important role in censoring the media to prevent discussion of subjects that might feed movements for change; the Ministry of State Security, which focuses on internal security threats as well as conducting intelligence-gathering abroad; and the Ministry of Justice, which operates China's [[gulag]]s and forced labor system.  Many of China's gulags operate factories to produce [[consumer goods]] for [[export]] to the [[United States]] and the rest of the world.

China's network of penal forced labor facilities, established in the early years of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) government to hold both criminals and political dissidents, remains in operation today.<ref>It is also known as the “laogai” system.  It's [[Russia]]n equivalent is '' Glavnoe Upravlenie Lagerei'' or ''gulag''.</ref>  U.S. law prohibits the importation of goods produced “wholly or in part in any foreign country by convict labor or/and forced labor or/and indentured labor under penal sanctions.”<ref>Tariff Act of 1930, 19 U.S. Code 19 § 1307.</ref>  Artificial flowers, Christmas lights, shoes, garments, umbrellas as well as coal, cotton, electronics, fireworks, footwear, nails, and toys have been identified as produced in Chinese prison factories for export.  There have been several instances of letters and notes from prisoners describing their confinement, working conditions and mistreatment discovered in products purchased by consumers outside China; at [[Christmas]] in 2019 a six-year-old girl in [[London]], in a box of newly purchased Christmas cards, found one that had a message in English saying,

In a 2011 story published by ''[[The Guardian]]'' a former prisoner claimed he was sentenced to three years at a Reeducation Through Labor (RTL) camp for “illegally petitioning” central government officials about corruption in his local area. In addition to performing work digging in open-trench coal mines, carving chopsticks, and assembling automotive seat covers for export, he described a system in which prisoners were forced to spend 12-hour shifts in the evenings playing online video games to build up virtual credits that were then sold online by camp officials.<ref>https://www.theguardian.com/world/2011/may/25/china-prisoners-internet-gaming-scam?CMP=twt_gu</ref>  Prison officials made approximately $785–$940 per day from the “gold farming” services performed by prisoners, which made the work more profitable than the prison's more traditional manufacturing enterprises.  Gold farming (also termed “powerleveling”) is a practice associated with many online role-playing games, in which a player pays someone else to play their character for them – thereby building up points that make their characters more powerful or acquiring possessions (e.g., wealth, weapons) that similarly make them stronger. Online vendors may also offer for sale existing characters whose power and wealth have already been built up through extended periods of game play, or virtual goods that can be transferred to other characters.<ref>http://www.infodev.org/infodev-files/resource/InfodevDocuments_1076.pdf</ref>  Websites acting as brokers for such

No compensation was provided to the prisoners themselves.  Prisoners who failed to earn the required numbers of virtual credits would be beaten by prison guards: “If I couldn't complete my work quota, they would punish me physically. They would make me stand with my hands raised in the air and after I returned to my dormitory they would beat me with plastic pipes. We kept playing until we could barely see things.”

Along with virtual goods generated by prisoners offered for sale online, prisoners are also used for spamming, “cherry blossoming,”* and “click fraud.”<ref>https://www.theregister.co.uk/2011/02/17/android_trojan_click_fraud_scam/</ref>  ‘Cherry blossoming’ is a term used to refer to small marketing related digital tasks, such as ‘liking’ a brand's [[Facebook]] page against a small pay. It involves using a large numbers of workers to complete small tasks for a business client.  Cherry blossoming can also be used to increase the number of hits on a company or product webpage, thereby raising its Internet profile and seeming popularity with consumers.

Click fraud is believed to be a widespread practice in China. Anchor Intelligence digital marketing identified a click fraud ring involving 200,000 different IP addresses and racked up more than $3 million worth of fraudulent clicks across 2,000 advertisers in a two-week period run out of technical universities such as the Shanghai Technology Institute.<ref>https://techcrunch.com/2009/10/08/the-evolution-of-click-fraud-massive-chinese-operation-dormring1-uncovered/</ref>  ''PC Magazine Online'' defines click fraud as the practice of “[c]licking ad banners without any intention of purchasing the product. Click fraud is done to make an ad campaign appear more effective. Paying a few cents per hour to workers in a third-world country to sit at a computer all day and do nothing but click banners makes an ad campaign appear very successful. If ads are based on click-throughs (pay-per-click), the Web site publishing the ads and clicking the ads countless times can make a dishonest profit.”<ref>https://www.pcmag.com/encyclopedia/term/click-fraud</ref>

According to some reports, the CCP has begun to move large numbers of Uyghurs, including many former detainees, into textile, apparel, and other labor-intensive industries in Xinjiang and other PRC provinces. Uyghurs who refuse to accept such employment may be threatened with detention. They continue to be heavily monitored outside of work, and are required to attend political study classes at night. A study by the Australian Strategic Policy Institute identified nearly 120 Chinese and foreign companies, including global brands, that the institute alleges directly or indirectly benefit from Uyghur labor in potentially abusive circumstances.<ref>https://crsreports.congress.gov/product/pdf/IF/IF10281</ref>

In China there were more than 600 hospitals and over 1,700 doctors engaged in organ transplant surgeries in 2007.  The statistics published by the Tianjin Oriental Organ Transplant Center and the No. 2 Hospital of the Second Military Medical University (also known as Shanghai Changzheng Hospital), two hospitals that have close ties to the Chinese military, provide a glimpse into the rapid growth of China's organ transplant market.  The ''China Southern Weekend'' reported, "The Oriental Organ Transplant Center's rapid growth has brought about huge revenue and profits. According to previous media reports, liver transplants alone bring the Center an annual income of 100 million yuan".  According to a ''Phoenix Weekly'' 2006 report, "In 2004, the fee for a liver transplant at the Oriental Organ Transplant Center was $32,000 (approximately 250,000 yuan). In 2005, it was over $40,000 (approximately 330,000 yuan). Some intermediary agencies charged a brokering fee as high as USD $13,000."

People with financial means are willing to buy organs at a high cost, and the huge profit pushes the hospitals to pursue new sources of organs by all means necessary to increase their profit margins. Given China's political and legal environment, certain groups of people become especially susceptible targets. Namely, Falun Gong practitioners.<ref>http://www.stoporganharvesting.org/business-of-organ-harvesting/</ref>

In March 2020 the China Tribunal, an independent people's tribunal, released its full judgment on Chinese forced organ harvesting.<ref>https://chinatribunal.com/</ref>  The panel was chaired by Sir Geoffrey Nice who previously led the [[prosecution]] of former [[Yugoslavia]] [[Prime Minister]] [[Slobodan Milosevic]] for [[war crimes]] at the International Criminal Tribunal and included other experts in law, transplant surgery, international politics, Chinese history and business.  The experts concluded that the grisly practice has continued unabated. In June 2019 the tribunal delivered its findings in [[London]], concluding beyond a reasonable doubt that state sanctioned forced organ harvesting from prisoners of conscience has taken place for years in China on a significant scale and is still taking place.  The main organ supply came from imprisoned practitioners of the persecuted spiritual group Falun Gong.<ref>https://en.minghui.org/html/articles/2019/4/15/176497.html</ref>

Many people have died indescribable hideous deaths for no reason, that more may suffer in similar ways, and that all of us live on a planet where extreme wickedness may be found in the power of those, who for the time being, are running a country that is one of the oldest civilizations known to modern man.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2gfN2_uOvTM</ref>

===Hong Kong===

The [[Hong Kong]] branch of the Chinese Communist Party was founded in 1947 as the Xinhua News Agency Hong Kong Branch. Although the party has ruled Hong Kong since 1997, it remains technically illegal, or "underground." This status, unique among the world's ruling parties, allows the CCP to evade local laws that require political parties to disclose financing and to provide a membership list. In 2000, the name of the branch was changed to "Liaison Office of the Central People's Government." It is headquartered in a tower in the city's Sai Ying Pun district. In 2003, the office was reorganized as a "second government" parallel and equal in status to the "local government" in Admiralty. Since 2012, Sai Ying Pun has been the dominant partner in the Hong Kong government. The Liaison Office is headed by a director, currently Luo Huining. Luo is a member of the national party's central committee. The office has extensive and undisclosed property holdings through Newman Investment, a subsidiary. The office reports to the Hong Kong and Macau Affairs Office, an agency of the Beijing government. This agency is currently headed by Xia Baolong, also a central committee member.

The Sino-British Joint Declaration of 1984 provides that Hong Kong will enjoy a "high degree of autonomy except for foreign and defence affairs" under a "one country, two systems" approach. This approach was to last for fifty years, from 1997 to 2047. China promised that it would hold a direct election for chief executive by 2017. In August 2014, the Chinese parliament announced that Hong Kong voters would choose a chief executive from two or three candidates nominated by a committee. This announcement triggered mass pro-democracy protests in Hong Kong in the form of the Umbrella Movement. The protests failed to the stop the selection of Carrie Lam as chief executive in 2017. In 2017, a spokesman for the Chinese Foreign Ministry announced that the joint declaration was no longer valid.

In 2019 the Hong Kong government proposed a bill to [[extradite]] suspects who were wanted on the mainland. Unlike Hong Kong courts, mainland courts do not provide suspects with due process or other legal protections. A series of the enormous protests were held in Hong Kong and the bill was withdrawn on October 23, 2019. Parties that supported the pro-democracy protesters swept the District Council elections that were held in November.<ref>Loh, Christine, "[https://hkupress.hku.hk/pro/con/1724.pdf Underground Front: The Chinese Communist Party in Hong Kong]" Second Edition.</ref>

−
{{quotebox|Expressions of anti-black sentiment by Chinese students have caught the world's attention periodically since the end of the 1970s. Demonstrations against African students in Nanjing and other cities between late 1988 and early 1989 received wide press coverage. Because the African population in China is small and transient, some observers saw these events as a manifestation of a vestigial xenophobia, not as part of a developing trend of thought within a key segment of Chinese society. Placed next to the brutal ethnic conflicts that plague much of the world, the episodic, non-lethal incidents in China seemed evanescent, with only fleeting implications for China's foreign policy.<ref>[https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/china-quarterly/article/anti-black-racism-in-post-mao-china/862AF22CB97347DD0EF289792919640B Anti-Black Racism in Post-Mao China] by Barry Sautman, ''Cambridge University Press''</ref>}}

One of the biggest ways the outbreak of the CCP coronavirus has damaged China's international reputation is by exposing the country's racist attitude toward Africans. Despite the fact that the virus originated in China itself, local governments and people in different parts of the country have been treating Africans like they were the ones responsible for triggering the COVID-19 pandemic. Such an attitude obviously has angered millions of Africans back home.<ref>https://www.visiontimes.com/2020/05/05/africans-enraged-at-chinas-racist-attitude.html</ref>

On April 13, 2020, the U.S. consulate had to issue an alert warning [[African-American]]s to avoid the [[Guangzhou]] region since they could be racially targeted.

====Uyghurs and Muslims====
 
−
According to various estimates, the Chinese Communist authorities have placed anywhere from 1-3 million Turkic Muslims, mostly ethnic [[Uyghur]]s, and [[Kazakh]]s, in Concentration Camps without formal charges, trials or hearings, and with no timetable for release. Many detainees have little or no contact with their families and, in some cases, young children. Some CCP officials describe the Xinjiang camps as “vocational education institutions” in which “trainees” learn the Chinese language, legal knowledge, and job skills, and undergo “de-extremization.” Other CCP authorities state that detainees are “infected with religious extremism and violent terrorist ideology.” According to some reports, many prisoners had engaged in activities that authorities may now deem “extremist,” including participating in religious services outside of officially sanctioned places of
 
−
worship; [[home-schooling]] one's children; spending time abroad or having relatives living abroad; and expressing religious sentiments.
 
−
 
 
−
Many detainees reportedly are compelled to express or chant their love of the Communist Party and President Xi Jinping, sing patriotic songs, renounce or reject many of their religious beliefs and customs, including their avoidance of pork, alcohol, and smoking, and undergo ideological indoctrination and self-criticisms. According to former detainees, treatment and conditions in the camps include beatings, food deprivation, and crowded and unsanitary conditions. Some reeducation centers reportedly contain factories where detainees are forced to work, in some cases producing goods for export.

−
Recent security measures include the following:
 
−
*Police Presence and Surveillance: Thousands of “convenience” police stations, furnished with antiriot and high-tech [[surveillance]] equipment, have been installed.
 
−
*Biometric data collection: Authorities have systematically collected and cataloged [[DNA]] samples, [[blood type]]s, and fingerprints and performed eye scans of Uyghurs for identification purposes as part of its social stability campaign, often under the guise of “health physicals.”
 
−
*Internet and Social Media Controls: Uyghurs in some areas of the XUAR are required to install an application on their [[mobile phone]]s that enables authorities to monitor their online activities.
 
−
*Home stays: The government has sent an estimated one million officials and state workers from outside the XUAR, mostly ethnic Han, to live temporarily in the homes of Uyghurs to assess their hosts’ loyalty to the Communist Party.<ref>https://www.justice.gov/eoir/page/file/1148671/download</ref>

On January 24, 2020, one day after the world was first alerted to the outbreak, a doctor circumventing [[liberal censorship|leftist censorship]] in Wuhan reported 90,000 infected cases.<ref><small>Dear friends, elders,
 
−
I ’m still in the epidemic area of ​​Hankou, Wuhan, and I ’d like to report to you the current epidemic situation in Hubei and even the whole country.
 
−
There are now more than 90,000 person-times (Note: Infected person-times or incidents?)
 
−
What is the chance of this virus being transmitted? After a person is infected, if he is not effectively isolated,
 
−
Or if effective treatment is performed, he will infect 14 people around him, so this level is very large.
 
−
Now it’s the time of the Chinese New Year family and friends, relatives, children, and children are all going to the house to reunite the family together for a reunion dinner
 
−
The situation is special now. I hope you don’t go out.
 
−
Every year in the Spring Festival, as long as people are safe, everyone can be together anytime, anywhere
 
−
Let me introduce you to the situation of medical supplies in Hubei Province
 
−
At present, the entire medical system in Wuhan, which integrates the entire medical system in Hubei Province, has passed through our superiors. The health and health committee (Note: these three words are uncertain)
 
−
And various administrative departments
 
−
 
−
The municipal government and the provincial government are initiating donations to the society through major media. This material is medical material. For example, the goggles I wear
 
−
Wear disposable masks, wear disposable gloves, wear this gown, or even isolation pants.
 
−
This material is extremely accurate. Our current medical staff must come back to the front line when they come down from the clinic.
 
−
I am now equivalent to recording this video with everyone on the FireWire, in order to make everyone accurate.
 
−
I stress again that during the Spring Festival holiday, don’t go out and stay in your own house, otherwise I ’m desperately ahead
 
−
Not just to keep my dad, my loved ones, healthy
 
−
I hope everyone can understand, I also know that some relatives are not in the group, please see the news of me, call each other and inform
 
−
It must be done. I hope everyone can raise awareness. This is a political task.
 
−
And I ’m reporting very bad news. This new type of coronavirus has undergone the second generation mutation
 
−
In other words, in the first generation of mutation, we can treat it symptomatically.
 
−
Then when the second-generation mutation occurs, this is terrible, and its chance of infection is not one person to one person, one person has the disease and infects 14 people around him.
 
−
Then it is pour burst (note: these five characters are uncertain)
 
−
I hope everyone remembers, do n’t go out, do n’t go out, do n’t meet, do n’t have dinner

−
Because coronavirus is a "noval" virus, meaning "new" or "unknown", technicians lack the training to identify infections.  People are going to multiple hospitals daily, attempting to be tested or treated.  There are a limited number of test kits available, so hospitals have to choose who will be tested.  That is one more reason why the true extent of the virus was underreported.
 
−
 
 
−
The first week 213 deaths were reported worldwide with over 9,800 confirmed infections.  The leftist Chinese regime was suspected of suppressing the real extent of the epidemic.  By the end of the second week 813 were reported dead with more than 37,300 confirmed infected.  193,000 were under observation.  400 million people were on lockdown nationwide.<ref>https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/more-400-million-people-lockdown-guangzhou-joins-quarantine</ref>

Near the end of the third week 1,666 were reported dead with 69,000 plus infected.  There was near universal skepticism - inside and outside China - on the Chinese socialist government's reporting on the epidemic.
 
−
 
 
−
2363 deaths were reported with 78,000 infections near the end of the fourth week.  CCP officials admitted to changing their methodology of reported infections, lowering the rate of reported numbers.  [[South Korea]] was reporting a complete doubling every day for the past four days.  [[Iran]] was experiencing a serious outbreak.  Reported numbers in the United States were puzzling.

The sixth week - after the virus spread globally and the first death was reported in the United States, NTD reported that the Communists ordered all data on the coronavirus to be destroyed in a province close to Beijing, in a deceitful attempt to suppress the true extent of the virus' spread in China.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MRagZsnEc2Q</ref>

CCP authorities cracked down hard on people trying to break through the veil of government secrecy, as [[discrediting attack|they call it "rumormongering"]], according to the state-run Xinhua news agency.  All persons who spread "fake news" (i.e. the truth about the real extent of the epidemic, its spread and its consequences), and thus disturbs social order, will face up to three years in prison detention or disciplinary action under China's [[social credit system]].  Offenders who cause serious consequences will be given three to seven-year prison terms.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zLROgqAjDhQ</ref>

Despite the threat of prison, many people still went online to blame the government, both high and low ranking officials.  Some residents of Wuhan posted videos calling for international help.  Viral videos showed dead bodies on the floor in hospitals as patients sat near by.  Videos of massively crowded hospitals were posted causing local authorities to build a giant new containment facility in a week.  However, video footage of the project came from Chinese state media.  It was released it to [[the West|Western]] [[media]] as a [[propaganda]] effort to demonstrate how "great" the [[authoritarian]] approach to problem solving is.  The structures are not really hospitals at all.  The structures are large quarantine camps where people are monitored and receive no treatment at all.<ref>https://twitter.com/owishemwe/status/1225758761370910720</ref><ref>[[BuzzFeed]] reported that video of one such "hospital" was actually an apartment building being constructed on the other side of the country.<br>https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/janelytvynenko/china-state-media-false-coronavirus-hospital-image</ref>

It insists that the island state be denied observer status in the World Health Assembly, the deliberative body for the UN's health watchdog, the World Health Organisation.

{{quotebox|what's behind China's perceived "Wolf Warrior" style diplomacy is the changing strengths of China and [[the West]].

Some claim that China is abandoning its principle of "hiding its ability and biding its time" which it stuck to over the past 30 years. The "Wolf Warrior" style of diplomacy doesn't contradict this principle, it's just less subtle. The reasoning behind this principle was to dilute ideological conflicts and concentrate on development, and China's national policy has always prioritized economic development. China embraces [[globalization]] and multilateral cooperation. The growing influence of China worldwide can be largely attributed to internationalization and the force of markets.<ref>https://www.globaltimes.cn/content/1185776.shtml</ref>}}

On April 3, 2020, a Chinese coast-guard ship intentionally rammed and sank a [[Vietnam]]ese fishing vessel. The two countries are in conflict over jurisdiction of the Paracel Islands and fishing rights in the waters around the archipelago. On April 18, China unilaterally announced the establishment of the Nansha and Xisha administrative districts in the Paracels and the [[Spratly Islands]], drawing a protest from the [[Philippines]], which has a presence of its own on at least nine Spratly islands and islets, including Fiery Cross Reef. The Asia Maritime Transparency Initiative, which monitors territorial conflicts, says Fiery Cross has been transformed into a Chinese missile base. In an earlier move, in mid-February 2020, a Chinese naval ship locked its radar on a Philippines naval vessel near the Commodore Reef in the Spratlys, signaling a strike as an act of intimidation. China in recent months has also provoked conflicts with [[Malaysia]], [[Brunei]], and Taiwan.  ''[[The National Review]]'' reports:

But just as China’s failure to stop a local epidemic from becoming a global catastrophe has brought it precisely the bad PR it was hoping to avoid, its South China Sea bullying has resulted in intensified anti-Chinese reactions in Southeast Asia and around the world.

China’s illegal assertiveness in the South China Sea — its wolf-warrior diplomacy — is damaging the state’s and Chinese people’s reputations.

...Economic growth had faltered before the onset of the coronavirus, but now the country faces food shortages, unemployment, inflation, a debt crisis, and, given the inflexibility of centralized and often corrupt management, even the specter of financial collapse. The CCP has relied merely on two factors to legitimize its rule in China despite its notorious record of human-rights violations and corruption: economic performance and nationalism. As the economy suffers, nationalism intensifies.

Decoupling refers to restricting and terminating certain trade relationships with the Chinese Communist Party. Decoupling however, is not limited merely to commerce. It will affect student exchange programs as students from China are hand selected by the Chinese Communist Party and expected to serve the party upon graduation without becoming infected with ideas such as [[democracy]], [[justice]], and [[religion]] while in the United States.  American students studying in China likewise are targeted for compromise, blackmail, and ideological subversion.

The communist bureaucracy tries to issue death certificates, including the cause of death, within thirty minutes.  Transporting corpses to crematoriums for disposal is the most time-consuming task in the process.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-KFxCqV1fPQ</ref>  Typically, Wuhan funeral homes handled about 220 deaths per day. Funeral workers were brought in to Wuhan from all over China to operate the city's crematoriums 24/7 with  capacity of cremations of over 1,500 per day for two and half months.<ref>https://www.theepochtimes.com/funeral-home-worker-in-wuhan-epicenter-of-coronavirus-we-are-working-24-7-to-cremate-bodies_3227432.html</ref>

The ''[[Voice of America]]'' reported an estimate of the 84 cremation furnaces in the city have a capacity of 1560 cremations in a 24-hour period, assuming one cremation takes one hour, results in an estimated 46,800 deaths.  A source close to the provincial civil affairs bureau said Wuhan saw 28,000 cremations in the space of a single month, suggesting that online estimates over a two-and-a-half month period weren't excessive.

Founded in 1921, was the Asian branch of the [[Comintern]], controlled by [[Joseph Stalin]] from Moscow. Mao Zedong was present at the founding <ref>Dick Wilson, ''The People's Emperor Mao: A Biography of Mao Tse-tung'', New York 1979, pg. 60.</ref> and became the dominant party leader in 1935 during the [[Long March]], whose survivors controlled the party into the 1990s. Mao and his CCP were the bitter enemies of the [[Kuomintang]] party ('''KMT''') under [[Chiang Kai-shek]], which ruled China until defeated by the CCP in 1949. Chiang and his army retreated to the nearby island of Taiwan, which still operates a separate regime.  By 1956 U.S. Ambassador Joseph C. Grew commented,

It is not an easy task to introduce a foreign and evil specter such as the Communist Party—one that is totally incompatible with the Chinese tradition—to China, a country with a history of 5,000 years of civilization.  With a long monarchial and feudal past, traditional Chinese had no word equivalent to the [[Western]] concept of "political party". Hence the CCP adopted a word associated with "criminal gang" as part of its official name.<ref>http://www.ninecommentaries.com/english-2</ref>  The CCP deceived the populace, and the patriotic intellectuals who wanted to serve the country, with the promise of the “communist utopia.”
 
−
 
 
−
It further distorted the theory of communism, which had already been severely distorted by Lenin, to provide a theoretical basis for destroying all traditional morals and principles. In addition, the CCP's distorted theory of communism was used to destroy all that was disadvantageous to the CCP's rule and to eliminate all social classes and people that might pose a threat to its control.

American conservatives have always been vehemently hostile toward Mao, and against his CCP until the 1980s, when a modernizing, pro-capitalist faction led by Deng Xiaoping (1904–97) came to power. The currently leader of the party is Xi Jinping.

The All-Russian Communist Party ([[Bolshevik]]) (later known as the [[Communist Party of the Soviet Union]]), was obsessed with ambition for [[China]]. In 1920, the Soviet Union established the Far Eastern Bureau, a branch of the Third Communist International, or the [[Comintern]]. It was responsible for the establishment of a Communist party in China and other countries. Sumiltsky was the head of the bureau, and Grigori Voitinsky was a deputy manager. They began to prepare for the establishment of the CCP with Chen Duxiao and others. The proposal they submitted to the Far Eastern Bureau in June 1921 to establish a China branch of the Comintern indicated that the CCP was a branch led by the Comintern. On July 23, 1921, under the help of Nikolsky and Maring from the Far East Bureau, the CCP was officially formed.

Marxism with its declaration to “use violent revolution to destroy the old state apparatus and to establish a dictatorship of the proletariat” was a completely foreign concept in China. Mao Zedong said, "The social scum and hoodlums have always been spurned by the society, but they are actually the bravest, the most thorough and firmest in the revolution in the rural areas."<ref>From Mao’s “Report on an Investigation of the Peasant Movement in Hunan” (March 1927).</ref> The [[lumpen proletariat]] enhanced the violent nature of the CCP and established the early political power of the communist party in rural areas. The word “[[revolution]]” in Chinese literally means “taking lives.” In a debate over the term “lumpen proletariat” during the [[Cultural Revolution]], the CCP felt that “lumpen” did not sound good, and so the CCP replaced it with “[[proletariat]]” simply.

The CCP raised funds by robbing banks and [[kidnap]]ping. Those kidnapped were kept alive to be ransomed back to their families for continued monetary support for the army. It was not until either the Red Army was satisfied or the kidnapped families were completely drained of resources that the hostages were sent home. Some had been tortured so badly that they died before they could return.

[[Edgar Snow]] introduced Mao and [[Zhou Enlai]] to American readers in 1937 in his book, ''Red Star Over China'', shortly after the [[Chinese Red Army]]’s route by [[Chiang Kai-shek]] in 1934 and their year long retreat to [[Yan'an]] known as the [[Long March]].  Snow wrote, "the political ideology, tactical line and theoretical leadership of the Chinese Communists have been under the close guidance, if not positive detailed direction, of the Communist International, which during the last decade has become virtually a bureau of the Russian Communist Party." And he further declared that the CCP had to subordinate itself to the "strategic requirements of [[Soviet Russia]], under the leadership of [[Stalin]]."<ref>Red Star Over China by Edgar Snow, New York, 1937.</ref>

The CCP promised the intellectuals a “heaven on earth.” Later it labeled them “[[rightist]]” and put them into the infamous ninth category of persecuted people, alongside landlords and spies. It deprived landlords and capitalists of their property, exterminated the landlord and rich peasant classes, destroyed rank and order in the countryside, took authority away from local figures, kidnapped and extorted bribes from the richer people, [[brainwash]]ed war prisoners, “reformed” industrialists and capitalists, infiltrated the [[KMT]] and disintegrated it, split from the Communist International and betrayed it, cleaned out all dissidents through successive political movements after it came to power in 1949, and threatened its own members with coercion.

The CCP started to build its theoretical system of [[genocide]] at its early stage as a composite of its theories on [[class]], [[revolution]], struggle, [[violence]], [[dictatorship]], movements, and [[political parties]].<ref>''On the Beginnings of the Chinese Communist Party'', Nine Commentaries on the Chinese Communist Party, The Epoch Times, December 13, 2004.</ref>  In the “Soviet areas” of Jiangxi Province, while the CCP was encircled by the KMT and could barely survive, it still conducted internal cleansing operations in the name of cracking down on the Anti-Bolshevik League, executing its own soldiers at night or stoning them to death to save bullets.

====Long March====
 
−
The Long March was a 6,000 mile retreat of the Chinese Communist Army back to northwest to Outer [[Mongolia]] and the Soviet Union after it being routed by the [[Kuomintang]] in  October 1933 to January 1934.  In the fifth operation by the KMT, which aimed to encircle and annihilate the CCP, the CCP lost its rural strongholds one after another. With its base areas continually shrinking, the main [[Red Army]] had to flee. The “Long March” was aimed at breaking out of the encirclement and fleeing to [[Outer Mongolia]] and the Soviet Union along an arc that first went west and then north. Once in place, the CCP could escape into the Soviet Union in case of defeat.
 
−
 
 
−
The Long March travelled through Shanxi and Suiyuan where no [[Japanese]] troops were deployed. Along the way the Army of the CCP claimed to be fighting the Japanese.  A year later, when the CCP finally arrived at Shanbei (northern Shaanxi province), the main force of the Central Red Army had decreased from 80,000 to 6,000 people.  The Communists in 1949 rallied to conquer mainland China, and all the Communist leaders of the country after 1949 were on the Long March; by the 1960s, the children of people on the March started to gain power.

====Second Sino-Japanese War====

:{{See also|Second Sino-Japanese War}}
 
−
When the war against [[Japan]] broke out in 1937, the Kuomintang (KMT) had more than 1.7 million armed soldiers, ships with 110,000 tons of displacement, and about 600 fighter planes of various kinds.
 
−
 
 
−
The total size of the CCP Army, including the New Fourth Army, which was newly formed in November 1937, did not exceed 70,000 people. Its power was weakened further by internal fractional politics; it could have been eliminated in a single battle.  If the CCP were to face the Japanese in battle, it would not be able to defeat a single division of Japanese troops. Sustaining its own power rather than ensuring the survival of the nation was the central focus and the reason for its emphasis on “national unity.”
 
−
 
 
−
After the Japanese occupied the city of Shenyang on Sept. 18, 1931, thereby extending Japanese control over large areas in northeastern China, the CCP fought alongside Japanese invaders to defeat the KMT.<ref>https://u.osu.edu/mclc/2016/07/02/truth-of-mao-zedongs-collusion-with-the-japanese-army-1/</ref>  The CCP exhorted people in the KMT-controlled areas to rebel against the KMT, calling on “workers to strike, peasants to make trouble, students to boycott classes, poor people to quit working, soldiers to revolt” so as to overthrow the Nationalist government.
 
−
 
 
−
The KMT Army was essentially alone on the frontlines fighting the Japanese, losing more than 200 marshals in the war. The commanding officers on the CCP side bore nearly no losses. However, the textbooks of the CCP have constantly claimed that the KMT did not resist the Japanese and that it was the CCP that led the great victory in the war against Japan.

(1979). ''China Report: Political, Sociological and Military Affairs.'' Foreign Broadcast information Service.

The CCP expanded this pattern of internal rivalry and killing from the small Soviet areas to the whole nation.  ''The Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party'' describes Yan'an rectification movement as,

{{quotebox|"the largest, darkest, and most ferocious power game ever played out in the human world. In the name of “cleansing petty bourgeoisie toxins,” the Party washed away morality, independence of thought, freedom of action, tolerance, and dignity....Humiliation became a fact of life in Yan’an—it was either humiliate other comrades or humiliate oneself. People were pushed to the brink of insanity, having been forced to abandon their dignity, sense of honor or shame, and love for one another to save their own lives and their own jobs. They ceased to express their own opinions and recited Party leaders’ articles instead."}}

Mao developed the techniques of "thought reform" (literally "washing the brain" in Chinese). Mao's tactics often included isolating and attacking dissenting individuals in "study groups."  These techniques of pressure, ostracism, and reintegration were particularly powerful in China, where the culture puts great value on "saving face", protecting one's innermost thinking, and above all, identifying with a group.  Individuals put through thought reform later described it as excruciating. The resulting changes in views were not permanent, but the experience overall seriously affected the lives of those who went through it. The CCP has used these same types of techniques on millions of Chinese since 1949.

====Maoist revolution====

In 1945–46, the U.S. attempted to force a negotiated settlement between the KMT and the Communists, but failed.  In the face of economic collapse Mao Zedong established a totalitarian regime in 1949, forcing the elected constitutional [[Republic of China]] government to [[Taiwan]].

Mao liquidated millions of opponents, acting against the International society in the [[Korean War]] (1950–53), and around 1960 broke bitterly with the Soviet Union over the control of the Communist world.  Mao's regime imposed strict controls over everyday life and cost the lives of tens of millions of people.  Mao bluntly said,

====Anti-Landlordism campaign====
 
−
To seize real power, the CCP went on a nationwide anti-landlord campaign in rural areas and in cities, murdering landlords and their families, allegedly freeing the oppressed.  Land owners were tried in public kangaroo courts in village squares where they were openly shamed and mocked, accused of committing crimes against the people.  The land, however was transferred to state ownership and not to the people, and Stalinist collectivization imposed based upon the model implemented in the [[Ukraine]] in the 1930s (see [[Holodomor]]).
 
−
 
 
−
These anti-landlord campaigns and murder which [[the left]] deems "liberating the people", actually began in the communist occupied territory of Yan'an during World War II, where the communists were hiding out from the Kuomintang and the Japanese even before the party captured the Chinese state in 1949. Landlords were forced into a [[rectification]] process, making false confessions and apologies, after which they were murdered for the offenses they "confessed" to.<ref>The CCP murderers were he alleged "agrarian reformers" the ''New York Times'' and [[Secretary of State]] [[George Marshall]] spoke of.</ref>

====Great Leap Forward====

:{{see also|Great Leap Forward|Green Leap Forward}}
 
−
In the early 1950s, China chose to model its socialist economy after that of the Soviet Union. The Soviet model called for capital-intensive development of heavy industry, with the capital to be generated from the agricultural sector of the economy. The state would purchase grain from the farmers at low prices and sell it, both at home and on the export market, at high prices. In practice, agricultural production did not increase fast enough to generate the amount of capital required to build up China's industry according to plan. Mao Zedong (1893-1976) decided that the answer was to reorganize Chinese agriculture by pushing through a program of cooperativization (or collectivization) that would bring China's small farmers, their small plots of land, and their limited draught animals, tools, and machinery together into larger and, presumably, more efficient cooperatives.<ref>http://afe.easia.columbia.edu/ps/cup/mao_zedong_agricultural_cooperation.pdf</ref>  The Great Leap Forward was a program to nationalize industry and agriculture.

Mao promoted a policy of disposing of "rightist" opponents and sharing the wealth in state-run cooperatives.  Since steel was the matter guns and tanks were made of, Mao declared the party's priority to overtake the United States and [[Great Britain]] in steel and agricultural output in 15 years.  Two [[liberal]] [[New Deal]] economists, [[Frank Coe]] and [[Solomon Adler]], were recruited as advisers.<ref name=aems>{{cite news |first=Matthew D.|last=Johnson|authorlink= |title=The Revolutionary, A film by Irv Drasnin, Lucy Ostrander and Don Sellers|url=http://www.aems.illinois.edu/publications/filmreviews/revolutionary.html|quote=Matthew D.

His research and teaching cover modern China and East Asia, political communications and propaganda, and United States-China relations. "The Revolutionary offers a window onto a unique individual and a unique perspective on the Mao-led Communist Party, particularly during the latter’s Cultural Revolution phase. The second is that it insinuates that Maoist China was closed to Americans during the Cold War.

The program included the establishment of large agricultural communes containing as many as 75,000 people.  Peasants were forced to produce steel in open furnaces at the expense of food production.  60% of the steel produced was substandard and useless.  Corruption was rampant, with local party officials reporting inflated steel and agricultural output numbers to please their central party bosses. [[Famine]] set in; people resorted to eating tree bark and dirt, and in some areas to [[cannibalism]]. Farmers who failed to meet grain quotas, tried to get more food, or attempted to escape were tortured and killed along with their family members via beating, public mutilation, being buried alive, scalding with boiling water, and other methods.<ref>https://www.investopedia.com/terms/g/great-leap-forward.asp</ref>

====Cultural Revolution====
 
−
 
 
−
The [[Cultural Revolution]] was a disastrous attempt to reform the economics, education and politics of Communist China, which led to the deaths of tens of millions of people.  The upheaval began in August 1966 by Chinese Chairman Mao Zedong.
 
−
 
 
−
Mao's objective was to replace leaders with people who would think like him and be supportive of him as Chairmen, make the Chinese Communist Party function the way he wanted, give the Chinese youth a revolutionary experience, and make changes so that education, health care, and cultural systems would be for the entirety of China and not just for the elite. In order to do this, he began to establish a cult towards himself. His party would be forced to support him as he had little patience for opponents during what he believe to be the pinnacle point of China's future as a communist state. He quickly began a system of purges to cleanse of any unwanted opposition toward him or to the gang of four, especially after he was embarrassed with the part rejecting his great leap forward policies<ref>http://asianhistory.about.com/od/modernchina/f/What-Was-The-Cultural-Revolution.htm</ref>

Mao Zedong wanted the Cultural Revolution to affect everyone in China.  Ordinary people perceived to be members of the "Five Black Categories" were targeted as well as their children. The Five Black Categories were Landlords, so-called "Rich farmers", anti-communists or counter-revolutionaries, "Bad-influencers" or "bad elements", and Rightists.  The ''Black Book of Communism'' reports,

In August 1966 all schools were closed. During this time Mao told the Red Guards to question things that traditionally had great value and importance, and question the activities of government officials by slighting them in a way that was visible to all.  The party itself was also purged:
 
−
{{quotebox-float|The "investigations" inside the government administration, carried out by policemen dressed as Red Guards, were massive and sometimes murderous: there were 1,200 executions in the purge of the Ministry for Security; 22,000 people were interrogated and many imprisoned during the investigation into Liu Shaoqi; 60 percent of the members of the Central Committee (which hardly ever met) and 75 percent of all provincial Party secretaries were expelled and usually also arrested. In all, for the whole period of the Cultural Revolution, between 3 million and 4 million of the 18 million cadres were imprisoned, as were 400,000 soldiers, despite the banning of Red Guards in the PLA. 197 Among the intellectuals, 142,000 teachers, 53,000 scientists and technicians, 500 teachers of medicine, and 2,600 artists and writers were persecuted, and many of them were killed or committed [[suicide]]. In [[Shanghai]], where intellectuals were especially numerous, it was officially estimated in 1978 that 10,000 people had died violent deaths as a result of the Cultural Revolution.<ref>''Black Book of Communism'', Pg, 524.</ref>}}

According to Prof. R. J. Rummel of the University of Hawaii, 7,731,000 people died in the Cultural Revolution.<ref>{{Cite book|last=Rummel|first=R.

It was no coincidence that the Red Guard violence began in 1966, seventeen years after the 1949 revolution; the first act after the 1949 revolution was take control of the [[public education]] system and indoctrinate a generation with [[Cultural Marxism]] and to target anyone who opposed them as fascists. The Maoist Red Guard were a supposed  "[[Antifa|Anti-fascist]]" movement.

:{{See also|Tiananmen Square massacre}}
 
−
In the months prior to the fall of the [[Berlin Wall]], pro-democracy movements worldwide flourished and socialism fell into disrepute.  The CCP faced the challenge of large-scale protests in Beijing's [[Tiananmen Square]] and in more than 400 other cities between April 15, 1989, and June 4, 1989. 
 
−
[[File:Tiananmen June 4 1989.gif|left|350px|thumb|APCs moving on students in Tiananmen Square, June 4, 1989.]]
 
−
After [[Zhao Ziyang]] became the party General Secretary, the economic and political reforms he had championed came under increasing attack. His proposal in May 1988 to accelerate price reform led to widespread popular complaints about rampant [[inflation]] and gave opponents of rapid reform the opening to call for greater centralization of economic controls and stricter prohibitions against Western influence. This precipitated a political debate, which grew more heated through the winter of 1988-89.
 
−
 
 
−
The death of [[Hu Yaobang]] on April 15, 1989, coupled with growing economic hardship caused by high inflation, provided the backdrop for a large-scale protest movement by students, intellectuals, government employees, [[journalist]]s, workers, [[police officer]]s, members of the armed forces, and other members of a disaffected urban population. University students and other citizens camped out in Beijing's Tiananmen Square to mourn Hu's death and to protest against those who would slow reform. Their protests, which grew despite government efforts to contain them, called for an end to official corruption and for defense of freedoms guaranteed by the Chinese constitution.  At least one million residents of Beijing were taking part in the protests.<ref>https://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/one-million-protesters-take-to-the-streets-in-beijing</ref>  Protests also spread to many other cities, including [[Shanghai]], [[Chengdu]], and [[Guangzhou]].  By late May, Tiananmen Square was overcrowded and beginning to face health and hygiene problems.
 
−
 
 
−
Disagreements about how to respond split the top Party leadership and forced out the Party General Secretary at the time, Zhao Ziyang. The decisions by Wang Zhen, Li Peng, and Paramount Leader [[Deng Xiaoping]] led them to conclude that the survival of their regime was at stake.  Martial law was declared on May 20, 1989 and at least 30 divisions were mobilized. As many as 250,000 troops were eventually sent to the capital.

[[File:Tiananmen victims crushed by tank treads.jpg|right|300px|thumb|Human remains crushed by PLA armoured personnel carriers in Tiananmen Square, June 4, 1989.]]

The 27th Army of Shanxi Province, whose troops were described as 60 percent illiterate and primitives, were responsible for most of the atrocities at Tiananmen Square.<ref>https://nsarchive2.gwu.edu/NSAEBB/NSAEBB16/docs/doc18.pdf</ref>  The 27th Army “snipers shot many civilians on balconies, street sweepers etc for target practice” and used expanding dum-dum bullets.  The 27th Army was chosen because its troops were considered “the most reliable and obedient”.
 
−
 
 
−
Late on June 3, 1989 and early on the morning of June 4, PLA units were brought into Beijing using automatic weapons, advancing in tanks, armored personnel carriers (APCs), and trucks from several directions toward Tiananmen Square.  They used armed force to clear demonstrators from the streets.
 
−
 
 
−
At 4:30 am protesters, joined by some PLA members, were given one hour to leave the Square, however five minutes later the 27th Army's armoured personnel carriers opened fire before running the crowd over at 65 kph [40 miles per hour].  “Students linked arms but were mown down. APCs then ran over the bodies time and time again to make, quote ‘pie’ unquote.  Their remains were collected by bulldozer later that morning, incinerated, and then hosed down drains.
 
−
 
 
−
The 27th Army was ordered to spare no one.  Wounded girl students begged for their lives but were bayoneted.  A three-year-old girl was injured, but her mother was shot as she went to her aid, as were six others.
 
−
 
 
−
1,000 survivors were told they could escape but were then mown down from specially prepared machine gun positions.
 
−
 
 
−
Army ambulances, who attempted to give aid, were shot up, as was a Sino-Japanese hospital ambulance. With the medical crew dead, the wounded driver attempted to ram attackers but was blown to pieces by an anti-tank weapon.
 
−
 
 
−
In another incident, the troops shot one of their own officers.  “27 Army officer shot dead by own troops, apparently because he faltered. Troops explained they would be shot if they hadn’t shot the officer.”
 
−
 
 
−
The true scale of the murders went unreported in Western media for nearly 30 years,<ref>https://archive.is/6nzNI#selection-2459.16-2479.159</ref> as globalists negotiated trade agreements and welcomed the [[PRC]] into the World Trade Organization.  Western sources, including [[Wikipedia]], toe the Chinese Communist Party line on many events and details, including casualty statistics.

After June 4, while foreign governments expressed horror at the brutal suppression of the demonstrators, the central government eliminated remaining sources of organized opposition, detained large numbers of protesters, and required political reeducation not only for students but also for large numbers of party cadre and government officials.

====Most favored nation status====
 
−
 
 
−
In the 1990s the issue of Most Favored Nation trade status for China was pushed by the CCP, globalists and agribusiness interests, but strongly opposed by religious and human rights groups. [[Bill Clinton]]'s policy, which began with a 1993 executive order to make MFN status conditional on Chinese human rights and political reforms, changed as [[lobbyist]]s pushed a trade relationship with the CCP and forced the issue to be separated from the CCP's human rights abuses.
 
−
 
 
−
As the [[Chinagate]] scandal progressed, Bill Clinton adjusted his China policy in 1996 and advocated dialogue and engagement; this led to a change in relations. But Washington continued to criticize China on the issues of [[Hong Kong]], human rights, trade, arms sales, [[Taiwan]], and questionable political donations to US election campaigns. Clinton welcomed General Secretary of the Chinese Communist Party and [[Butcher of Tiannanen Square]] [[Jiang Zemin]]'s to the White House. The major factors affecting the relationship include: the enduring impact of the 1989 Tiananmen massacre when the Communist Party crushed a peaceful democratic movement with the army; the negative coverage of the CCP's human rights abuses by American media, American psychological insecurity caused by the rise of Communist China, and US domestic politics grappling with a thirst for cheap Chinese manufactured goods while American factories shut down and jobs loss to China.

China's "economic miracle" since it was granted Most Favored Nation status by the U.S. Congress in 2002, and access to the U.S. consumer market, led to unprecedented economic growth and better living conditions for millions of Chinese. It also strengthened the grip of the anti-democratic Chinese Communist Party over people's everyday lives, and the loss of manufacturing jobs for consumer products in the United States.

By 2017, the imposition of [[tariff]]s by U.S. President [[Donald J. Trump]] began to redress the imbalance.  China's economy was developed over those early decades of the 21st century as a coastal, manufacturing economy entirely dependent on exports.  Young people left their home villages in the countryside to seek work in coastal factories. The prosperity was all built on access to the U.S. consumer market, and Americans' appetite for cheap manufactured goods. Scant attention was paid to developing a domestic service sector economy, while the vast interior remained impoverished, and increasingly so as young people abandoned rural agricultural work for urban factory work.

[[Tariff]]s on Chinese imports stemmed the [[capital]] outflow from the U.S. to China, sparked creation of manufacturing and service sector jobs in the U.S., and slowed the Chinese [[military]] build-up which previously was being funded by American [[consumer]]s.<ref>[https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2018/06/trade_deficits_paying_for_china_military_buildup.html]</ref>

Supposedly the 2003 SARS epidemic struck suddenly and there was no time to prepare.  In reality, the first cases happened in Guangdong province in late November 2002. Chinese officials didn't inform the World Health Organization about SARS until February 2003. When it started to spread to other regions of China, the CCP covered that up. Eventually SARS was reported to have killed just under eight hundred people in China, but in reality there may have been several thousand more. 
 
−
 
 
−
Dr. Jiang Yanyong in April 2003 wrote a letter exposing the true number of SARS patients in Beijing, which was several times higher than the official number. His letter was publicized by Western media. The party was forced to respond. They fired several Beijing officials and
 
−
put Dr. Jiang under [[surveillance]]. The Communist Party has never admitted there was a SARS cover-up. But afterwards, the Chinese Communist Party did create what was supposed to be a fail-safe system to track contagions. It failed.
 
−
 
 
−
The system put in place focused on having doctors across China put patient data into a centralized database. This way central authorities could monitor if there are any new outbreaks. It suppose to work in theory. In July 2019, eight thousand Chinese health officials conducted a massive online drill focusing on how to handle an infectious disease outbreak. In the style of the 2002 SARS outbreak, the officials raced to test how quickly and effectively they could track, identify, and contain the virus, including by notifying Beijing. It worked in the simulation. But in Th December 2019 Wuhan SARS-CoV-2 outbreak it did not work in reality because the Chinese Communist Party's political apparatus makes it impossible for even the best design system to function properly.

The Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) is a massive global investment strategy launched by the CCP in 2013 aimed at bolstering its economic and political influence across [[Asia]], [[Europe]], [[Africa]], and [[South America]]. The project involves investments in infrastructure and natural resource projects in countries.  Chinese officials are quite open that the BRI is aimed at creating a Eurasia wide Chinese led bloc to counter the United States.  It has been criticized by the U.S. and other countries as an example of “debt trap” diplomacy, that saddles developing countries with unsustainable debt burdens while allowing the regime to expand governance abroad.

China has been looking to construct a 120 kilometer mega canal cutting through the Isthmus of Kra, the narrowest part of the Malay Peninsula in [[Thailand]].  This will open the [[South China Sea]] to the [[Indian Ocean]], bypassing the Strait of Malacca.  What China is eyeing is a canal project in Thailand called the Kra Canal and the Thai leadership seems to be on board.  Through this canal China is trying to reduce dependence on the Strait of Malacca. Currently 80 percent of China's oil imports passed through the South China Sea.

The Strait of Malacca is a key reason why China has not been able to grow too powerful.  Democratic and powers such as India, Australia, and
 
−
other Southeast Asian nations are well-positioned to cut off Chinese supply lines in the event of a major military confrontation by creating a

blockade around the Strait of Malacca.  China wants to ensure that its commercial and naval vessels find an alternate route that altogether avoids the Malacca choke point while travelling between the Indian and [[Pacific Ocean]]s. This is an overhang of the maritime portion of Xi Jinping's Belt and Road initiative that seeks to connect Southeast Asia with the [[Middle East]] and [[Europe]].

The original anchor investor in Rosemont Seneca (which at one point claimed $2.4bn in assets under management) was Rosemont Capital, a Heinz family office alternative investment fund, named after Rosemont – the Heinz family estate outside [[Pittsburgh]]. During the most vibrant years of this partnership's international investment and “consulting” activity, it is important to note that [[Joe Biden]] was [[Vice President]] and John Kerry was [[Secretary of State]]. It was not coincidental that Rosemont Seneca's headquarters was in [[Washington, D.C.]] as opposed to [[New York]] where most of its competitors maintained their offices given the investment professional labor pool in and around [[Wall Street]].

Bohai Harvest RST (Shanghai) Equity Investment Fund Management Co., Ltd. (BHR) was not a legitimate investment company in the classical sense, set up to make financial return on investment through legal means.  The firm was set up as a tool for the CCPs global economic imperial ambitions, using the Biden name, and others in their orbit, to market Chinese mercantile domination.<ref>https://creativedestructionmedia.com/investigations/2020/10/31/joe-co-didnt-just-sell-out-america-they-sold-out-the-whole-free-world/</ref>
