Whistleblowers have revealed that Chinese leader Xi Jinping held a secret meeting in October 2022 to strategize a global attack on Falun Gong, a spiritual group that has faced severe persecution by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) since 1999. Xi’s new approach includes transnational repression campaigns, disinformation spread through Western media and social media influencers, and misuse of the American legal system to target Falun Gong-affiliated companies and organizations.
Xi called the previous suppression efforts a failure, citing the rise of Falun Gong-founded media such as The Epoch Times and New Tang Dynasty Television. This new strategy represents an escalation in the CCP’s tactics, posing threats to freedoms in the U.S. and other democracies.
Talking Points:
- Global Disinformation and Legal Manipulation:
- How the CCP co-opts Western media and uses lawfare to suppress Falun Gong abroad.
- Examples of frivolous lawsuits and other legal actions targeting Falun Gong practitioners and their organizations.
- Impact on the U.S. and Free World:
- Why U.S. lawmakers like Rep. Scott Perry, Rep. Michelle Steel, and Rep. Michael McCaul are condemning these actions as attacks on democracy and human rights.
- The chilling effect of allowing authoritarian regimes to influence U.S. systems.
- Falun Gong’s Peaceful Mission:
- Highlighting Falun Gong’s principles of truthfulness, compassion, and forbearance amidst CCP persecution.
- Falun Gong-founded organizations, such as Shen Yun Performing Arts and independent media outlets, as examples of resilience and cultural preservation.
