The Evilness of the Communist Party
A local woman was shocked when she heard that the persecution has been going on for 22 years.
“I have not heard about it until today,” she said, “I cannot believe that in today’s society some people still are experiencing such a suppression. The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) tries to block all information. I knew about the evilness of the Party, but I didn’t know it is so evil.”
Practitioners told her that Falun Dafa teaches the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance, and improves physical and mental health. The woman asked why the Party persecuted such a good practice. Practitioners told her it is because the practitioners outnumber the Party members. She understood right away: “The Party is afraid of truthfulness. If a lot of people cultivate truthfulness, the evil of the Party will be exposed. A tyrant power is afraid when people havetheir own thoughts.”
The woman said the whole world should stand up against the persecution. She told practitioners that she would read more information, and encouraged practitioners to keep up the good work.
Communism Is Really Evil
Many people signed the practitioners’ petition, which calls for an end to the persecution. A senior gentleman took a few fliers after signing the petition. He said to practitioners that the CCP must pay for what they have done. “Besides its crimes against its own people, the Party needs to be held accountable for COVID-19,” he said.
He condemned the persecution. Pointing at the practitioners who were doing the exercises, he said: “I don’t understand why the Party suppresses such a belief group. Who is this group going to threaten? Communism is really evil.”
Local Citizen Brings His Friend to Sign the Petition
A local gentleman said to practitioners: “I saw your booth from far away. The Party’s behavior disgusts me. Different people have different beliefs. Nobody can take the freedom of belief away, and nobody should persecute people who have different beliefs. Communism should not exist.”
Ten minutes later, he came back with a friend. He told the friend about the persecution, and asked him to sign the petition too. The friend didn’t hesitate, and thanked practitioners for spreading the truth.
My Whole Family Is Looking Forward to This Day
A senior Chinese approached a practitioner after reading the flier. Pointing at the practitioner’s banner that read, “Heavenwill destroy the Party,” he said excitedly: “My whole family is looking forward to this day--the day that the Party is finally eliminated.”
His family was persecuted in China. He escaped to Hong Kong and came to England when he was young. “We all want to go back to China, but we need to wait for the Party to be gone.”
Practitioners told him about Falun Dafa’s teachings. He thanked practitioners and said: “Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance brings hope to society.”
