STOP Chinese Communists and Religious Persecution
The Issue
Netflix knows: On the matter of religion in China, Beijing has made one thing perfectly clear: No religious group lies beyond the grasp of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).
Late last month, the Jamestown Foundation reported on a new CCP program of collectivization and reeducation in Tibet similar to the forced-labor campaign being carried out against Uyghurs in Xinjiang province. In 2020 alone, just under 600,000 rural Tibetans were subjected to this program of indoctrination and retraining for various forms of menial labor.
In 2017 reports emerged that the CCP was collectivizing and interning Muslim Uyghurs in political reeducation facilities in China. Early estimates of a couple of hundred thousand having been placed in the camps were quickly revised to reflect the true picture: camps holding approximately 1.8 million Uyghurs.
Christians are being attacked as well.
Christians have seen crosses torn down from atop churches, church buildings demolished, and pastors, like Pastor Wang Yi of Early Rain Covenant Church, imprisoned.
Chinese Catholics watched their leaders strike a deal with Beijing two years ago, giving the CCP a say on the appointment of bishops in China. And just last week, it was reported that government-issued high-school textbooks altered a Bible story to turn one of Jesus’s key teachings on its head: After inducing others not to cast stones at a woman who has sinned, Jesus himself stones her.
An educational curriculum written and distributed by Chinese government agencies even recast the Gospel of John to say that Christ claimed to be a sinner and was guilty of murder.
Other religious movements have fared no better. Reports abound that members of Falun Gong, a spiritual movement founded in the 1990s, were subjected to organ harvesting and extrajudicial imprisonment.
Most citizens aren't even aware. But Netflix and Reed Hastings have been shown direct proof of the oppression. Unfortunately Reed Hastings refuses to bring this to the screen.
So, I propose a television series designed to bring light to the oppression.
Netflix, Reed Hastings, Adam Folk, Janet Muswell and Migde Velazquez all REFUSE to even consider a script exposing the Communist Party of China.
