    A wave of ridiculous media reports on supposed Chinese government "organ harvesting" rely on front groups of the far-right cult Falun Gong, whose followers believe "Trump was sent by heaven to destroy the Communist Party" and claim aliens invented sciencehttps://thegrayzone.com/2019/09/30/reports-china-organ-harvesting-cult-falun-gong/ …

        The US-led imperialist system is in decline, and fundamental crisis. So Western propaganda is intentionally fueling anti-Chinese racism and xenophobia, reviving the "Yellow Peril," to scapegoat China for problems caused by capitalism It is pure projection https://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2019/09/30/people-around-the-globe-are-divided-in-their-opinions-of-china/ …pic.twitter.com/Npjp4e4VQu

        Are they really a far-right cult? A popular youtuber and all-round nice guy is part of FG. Although I might be mistaken.

        I had the same question. I remember hearing about them maybe 20 years ago and thinking it was weird how China demonized their meditation practices and saw them as a threat.

        It's called "Capitalism with Chinese Characteristics", and contains in its praxis elements of Confucian ethics. It's not the cut-throat man-eat-man version of capitalism practiced in the West.
