Civil rights move.
Sitong Bridge Warrior Peng Zaizhou (real namePeng Lifa) in the CCPTwentyOn October 13, the eve of the conference, two large protest banners with red characters on a white background were hung on the Sitong Bridge in the Haidian District of Beijing where universities and technology companies gather.
“No nucleic acid to eat; no blockade for freedom; no lie for dignity; no Cultural Revolution for reform; no leader for votes; no slave to be a citizen”; another banner read: “Strike, strike, dismiss dictator Xi Jinping” .
Ma Yongtao：Peng LifaIt’s the little boy who shouted the truth about the emperor’s new clothes
The banner protests caused a stir on social media, shocked the world, and Chinese people all over the world responded. Three members of China Human Rights Watch displayed similar banners in support of Peng Lifa on October 16 in front of Utrecht Centraal, the largest railway hub in the Netherlands.
They displayed banners such as “No leaders need votes”, “Remove dictator Xi Jinping”, “No nucleic acid but need to eat; no blockade but freedom; no lies but dignity; no Cultural Revolution but reform”.
Director of China Human Rights Watch, event organizerMa YongtaoIn an interview with The Epoch Times, he said that the first is to support Peng Lifa; the second is to continue to ferment and pay attention to the CCP, which will also cause a certain amount of pressure to prevent the CCP from aggravating the persecution of Peng Lifa.
He said that after the incident in Beijing, “We are all paying close attention, and we admire Peng Lifa’s courage very much. Under the current (CCP) high-pressure situation, it happens to be in the CCP’sTwentyBefore the convening, under the pressure like an iron barrel (the CCP blockade), being able to have the courage to take this step and successfully hang up the (banner) is not easy, and it is very admirable. “
Through the reactions of various parties he saw on Twitter, Ma Yongtao found that there are not only complaints from the people, but also differences within the CCP. Some careful netizens found that the CCP veteran Li Ruihuan did not applaud Xi Jinping’s speech like everyone else.
“The Communist Party is now full of landmines and dry wood. They all say that ‘a single spark can start a prairie fire’, and maybe a spark can ignite. It’s like the emperor’s new clothes. Everyone knows that the emperor doesn’t have any. Wearing clothes, now there is a lack of a little boy shouting ‘he has no clothes’, and Peng Lifa is the little boy who shouted out.”
An extremely disturbed CCP and pervasive resistance
A few days ago, it was reported on the Internet that Beijing implemented a number of measures to prevent people from repeating demonstrations such as hanging banners on flyovers. These measures include real-name registration when buying cloth over one meter, and there are reports that the capital is now recruiting people to take care of overpasses, with a daily salary of 320 yuan.
On the morning of October 16, at the opening ceremony of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the words “security” and “national security” appeared 50 times in Xi Jinping’s report. At the same time, the authorities strictly control online public opinion, and all comment areas under the epidemic prevention and control policies that are critical to people’s livelihood are closed.
In this regard, Ma Yongtao said that the security they are talking about is not the security of the common people, but the security of the CCP. Ordinary people know that the more it mentions, the more it lacks, and the more “safety” it mentions, it just proves that it is not safe.
“When it (the CCP) is finished, the people will be safe. It has deeply realized that its criminal rule is already very unsafe, so it repeatedly mentioned the issue of ‘security’ in the report.”
Ma Yongtao said that in the past three days, he has seen on major social media that the whole world has shown solidarity with Peng Lifa. The power of the people is endless. Now, similar protest demands have been found on buses in Xi’an and public toilets in Beijing.
Ma Yongtao said that this kind of resistance among the people is now omnipresent. Although not everyone can make a move like hanging a banner on the Sitong Bridge, in fact, this kind of resentment and dissatisfaction with the CCP has been reflected in many mainland Chinese people. , also appeared overseas.
“Only by your own awakening and resistance can you fight for rights”
Secretary General of China Human Rights WatchLiu XinglianIn an interview with The Epoch Times, Mr. Wang said that the Sitong Bridge banner incident “sounded a charge for those who resisted (the CCP) all over the world. Only by fighting together can we achieve the final victory.”
He said: “Wherever there is oppression, there will be resistance. In mainland China, there are more and more people who are brave enough to resist (the CCP). This resistance (of Peng Lifa’s) will also drive other people to resist further, and the impact will be very large, so The Chinese authorities are also very panicked.”
“And it is precisely because of the instability of the CCP regime that it has to constantly maintain stability and continue to suppress.”
Liu XinglianHe said that regardless of whether Xi Jinping can be re-elected at the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, even if it is replaced by anyone, Zhang Jinping and Wang Jinping are the same, (because) their essence is the same.
Liu Xinglian said: “It is sad to have illusions about the CCP. The Chinese always hope that the CCP will have an honest official, the Great Master Qingtian. That is impossible. The Chinese can only fight for their due rights by relying on their own awakening and resistance. “
