People lie sometimes in their daily life
You can see that in kids, your colleagues
Most likely not you
What is the usual reason for telling lies?
When you are powerless
You will automatically respond to avoid accountability
"It has nothing to do with me"   "Not me"
Maybe the maid in your home will defend like this too
This is a self-defence mechanism in a vulnerable situation
I'm not saying this is correct
However, if a regime or a authority
keeps lying, such as the boss, the parent
the governing regime like the CCP and the Hong Kong government...
USA can also lie
In this case, it will lead to
a very long-term problem
Because it is people up there with power who keep lying
Hong Kong news sometimes reported that
Somebody pretended to be a police officer and called someone and said:
Hey! Your family (or you) has broken the law
Now you immediately deposit 80,000 RMB into this account
the case will be fixed for you!
In this case, Hong Kong people would feel very odd
What happens if I pick up such a call?
Cut the line, won't pay attention to that somebody at all
However, it turns out that many college students....
in Australia or Hong Kong or many other places
really put the money into it.  Easily cheated.  Why ?
Because when a person grows up in an environment for long
where the police
has such power and also really does such often
So if you have a little problem, you will be scared
I know a friend, very committed Catholic
he grew up in Mainland when he was young.  Although he has already lived in Hong Kong for a long time,
He said, if somebody claimed to be the police in phone
he would still be scared
So, if you are in long-term, especially since childhood
trained to grow in such environment:
Constantly being brainwashed by lies and oppression
You really will become
completely different in thinking and response
For example, in the following short video
from a KOL named Leonard
His explanation is very good and it inspired me a lot recently
It is about an animal, I don’t even know how to pronounce its name
It eats meat....
If you have viewed such video clips for a long time, from childhood
You will think it is really a carnivore
Let's take a look
So, to clarify this issue
first we need to start with an animal
The animal is academically called "Hut Suen".   It is a carnivore
It often lives among ......stealing and eat chicken, fish etc. in the farm
Like what is shown here, the "Hut Suen" is eating chicken
This caught "Huei Suen" is fed with a big piece of pork
and in this video clip, it is stealing a fish
Some viewers cannot stand it anymore:
You are just making fool of me!  It is just a goat!
Goats occassionally eat meat
but this doesn't affect us from categorizing it as a herbivore
why did you try to deceive me that it is a carnivore ?!
So if there is an isolated nation, through its powerful manipulation
reports and shows occasional phenomenon with focus and force to its citizens
and from birth  they are isolated from the outside world's information
then the occasional phenomenon will become a normal phenomenon in their brains
forming people's congnition
Using such propaganda to render the warm goat as a dangerous animal
in the name of "good intention" --for safety of the kids
If someone queries it,
we'll focus on collecting images of goats attacking people
then after quite some time, kids will hate goats
Nobody will ever believe that goats are herbivore
On the contrary we can show more about home grown cute lion cub
telling you that lions are very safe animals
we all wonder upon the sayings of those who can contact the outside world
"Goats are dangerous! They eat man!"  "You don't know about that?!"
So funny and dumb.....ha ha ha.....
This is like the saying that "Never go to the US,
for you will easily get shot and die on the street"
And there are statements that of course it is safe to raise lions at home.  Right?
that CCP is not autocratic, the political environment is safe here....
such baffling sayings in the ears of those living in the normal world
They think that individual, occasional cases are the norm
and don't know how dumb they themselves are
So in real life, who is doing such propaganda ?
An example is: millions of Hong Kong people protested in a peaceful way
This was not even mentioned in the news
The authority also did not respond in any way
When some "Brave Force" groups and violence scene appeared
the government started plenty of news reporting on them
the scenes on police brutality and biased use of power
all were not reported in the news inside China,
or just lightly touch on them
Extreme cases with items burnt
got 24 hour extensive coverage,
cycled again and again in volume
If one company cheats another company
deceives it, and steals its things
we know that such business behaviors are impossible
in a society ruled by law
But what if a country deceives another country for a long time?
It will cause many problems!
But sometimes it can successfully deceive one for ten to twenty years
Recently you saw the obvious change in political situation
The United States has completely reversed its approach and attitude
on how to treat, and start to deal with the CCP
I myself try to separate the CCP from China
because I love China
Chinese poems...I read in junior high school
I like China very much, such as West Lake
I still remember my middle school teacher, the Chinese teacher
Wow, a fair skin, fat woman always in blue cheongsam
Gold wire glasses, round frame, with a loud voice
She told us about West Lake...
how people grabbed those water chestnuts in the middle of the West Lake
Many years ago, I took my family to West Lake
It’s a pity that it was summer.  Summer was very hard.
very hot, a Hot West Lake!
You may have heard of "Emerald embankment in Spring Dawn"
Su Dongpo walked on that embankment
Wow, the embankment was packed with tourists
Full of people.... You wouldn’t be interested to stay at all
Yes, the environment has changed
I love China and its culture....
Hmm... I wonder if you have heard of it
When I was a child, my mother taught us, and I also taught my children:
Moon and moonlight, flows onto hall so bright
year end dusk    pick betel nut
nut smells good la    pick some ginger
ginger spicy    buy bitter gourd
gourd is bitter   buy pork belly
belly is fatty     buy cowhide
cowhide thin   buy water chestnut
chestnut pointed   buy riding whip
whip is long     build roof strong
roof is high     buy a knife
Knife cuts vegetable bits    buy rice pot lid
lid is round    buy a Sampan (boat)
Sampan no bottom    drown two western victims
one floats    one to the bottom
This short folk song is quite racist
The last two phrases do have some black terror:
drowning two Fan Guizi (westerners), one corpse floats, the other to the bottom
This is a nursery rhyme!
I love China....
Jin Yong’s martial art novels are read by Chinese all over the world
You will yearn for Taihu Lake...
All kinds of landscapes.... characters, history
But the CCP regime really has problems
For a long time, I have been deceived by it.  What is the lie?
(Elmer Yuan Gongyi, "papa Yuan")
(about People's Republic of China, the country name) China, the People..., in fact, there are no "People"!
The so-called People means only that...you were born and then labour for CCP
live and die
Then others are born, repeating...that's it
Even if 10 million people die, it will be replenished, some others are born
So they treat people as animals
Won't treat you as a human being, just as cow and horse
We have the saying "labour like cow and horse".   Just live to help CCP to make money
After the "cow" has earned money, the money goes to the rich autocrats
Those are real money!  US dollars!
The powerful families use it to invest in this and that
Goldman Sachs...Wall Street...
just help them to invest, getting huge commissions!
This explains clearly
How much has it earned in total?
A total of 20 trillion U.S. dollars over the past 30 years
10 trillion has been spent
like nowadays around here, to bribe everyone
and buy oil, buy steel powder, so and so.  Right?
Where did the remaining 10 trillion go?
divided by that bunch of influential officials!
those 50 families in power!
The system is
50 families and 90 million CCP members
with the rest of people labouring like cow and horse for them
It’s such a system, not a country
Country: Republic? People's Republic?
In a Republic, the people have the final say
When did you see them vote!
Have you ever seen a poll ?
Have you ever known even once that the country’s budget shown to all ordinary people?
zero!
Walking through Causeway Bay before
you may have seen Falun Gong putting a bed there
mimic an operating table for surgery
with some bloody, terrifying photos displayed
They accuse the CCP of organ harvesting
We mostly went around it if we passed by
It is also because I heard a lot in the news
for example, that the founder claimed his birthday same as that of the Buddha, but such is not true on his birth record
All I heard back then were such information
What?! Sure they are a cult!  Better avoid it
But in the past year
I came across the news and information they provided
of course, some of them were sensational and a bit exaggerated
But many of their news channels and information platforms were well done
And they are really brave to speak up
Recently, Apple Daily and Next Media were publicly humiliated
Purely for humiliation, with high profile
Jimmy Lai was arrested for nearly 40 hours but then released
without anything firm and made public to sue him
It's very strange, obviously some form of oppression and threatening
NTD, Falun Gong, Epoch Times
their news report
that steadfast attitude is very...
very... very worthy for us to take them seriously
its contents
I want to express my regret publicly right here
I didn’t believe in what they reported before
But it turns out that I was partly affected by the CCP’s propaganda about them
it is affecting my thinking
Put it this way, I'm just an ordinary person....
But even the US government has been deceived for more than 20 years!
Recently, they publicly stated that all previous strategies about CCP were wrong
The agreements signed by the CCP and the US, like the South China Sea island reef Base
that it will be demolished....such has been signed for years
It’s been five or six years. It was signed between Obama and Xi Jinping
But after signing, nothing happened.  "I would just put it off, just cheat"
won't really handle it
Then they added runways and military facilities
Obviously, it’s procrastination
This is the Chinese trick
Sun Tzu's Art of War, a culture of thousands of years
the fictitious is real, and the real is fictitious
Once you are depicted as the enemy, there is no ethical issue to cheat you
Warriors are not tired of playing fake!
These cultures affect how we view things
Why do I say to Falun Gong
I need to reorganize my thinking and re-judge their value
Because in the past year, I have seen, with respect to the role of public media
To consistently tell the truth
Continue to report something....
like facing the high wall (egg and high wall)
Facing the power of high walls
I must tell the truth
This attitude is very difficult to keep
You can see that many people automatically keep their mouths shut
Many high position media leaders are being changed
NOW TV, Cable, everyone knows they are all changing
They used to be relatively fair and neutral media
RTHK, everyone knows that they are under a lot of oppression
Apple Daily got even more serious a few days ago
It’s not easy to use your resources at this time
to boldly persist in telling the truth
and not express "loyalty" (to CCP)
with wishful thinking that don't mess me up, for my good
This kind of attitude
So I started to reflect myself
They have been talking about live person organ harvesting for so many years
There should be some truth in it
I started to understand that
the CCP’s big foreign propaganda, plus big internal propaganda
all together they brainwash us, we are all deeply affected
Now we have to start from the beginning. We say: Discern
Let go of the prejudices of the past and look at the cases from scratch
especially in the past year
I understood more.  What happened in....
Uighurs, Xinjiang, Tibet and other places
It seems very distant from the people of Hong Kong, but it turns out to be real !
BBC Chinese Channel has a series of short film reports
Wow, the next one is really miserable. I will show you a part...
BBC interviewed some people who left Xinjiang
All their children inside China were arrested
for re-education:
Kids were taught, from very young, "I am Han Chinese" "I speak Chinese"
Purging the Uighurs
More than 60 adults were interviewed
You can watch this introduction video clip here
If you are interested, you can follow the link in the "Description" to see the whole video, in depth
I heard that they were brought to an orphanage
I don't know if they are still alive
China, where are my kids?
I started to see
It turns out that Xiliang.... I only started to view his comments a year ago
My son taught me: Take a look at his views
I didn't even watch Youtube back then !
Xiliang said at that time:
Today's Xinjiang, Tomorrow's Hong Kong
Because  we Hong Kong people have gone through similar things
"With no needle pricking upon the flesh, you won't know the pain"
That’s how people are
I started to know
that the CCP’s governance really adopts these means!
Now Hong Kong people have experienced them, step by step
So I'm very frank here
to share my views and feelings
And for what the Falun Gong media said in the past
I think that
it should be telling something bearing lots of truth
for many things have been revealed gradually
The CCP’s means of action, Hong Kong people have gotten the needle pricks,
and begin to understand and see clearly

The Catholic Church celebrated Mass with scripture readings every Sunday
A recent reading (1 Kings 19:11-13) stated that
Prophet Elijah hid in a cave
God (Yahweh) wanted to meet with him
There was an earthquake, a big fire
a storm....
God was not there yet
But when "a light murmuring sound" passed by
Elijah knew that God had come
He  “covered his face with his cloak” and came out
In the faith of the Jews,
I guess it's right
If you encounter the perfect, true, good and beautiful God, shining brightly
It’s impossible for people to look at Him with the naked eyes.  That will kill you.
So Elijah covered his face and talked to God
What message does this give us?
God often appears with a gentle voice
You can only hear Him in "a light murmuring sound"
The same is true of our conscience
We say that conscience is given by God
The human conscience is very gentle and quiet
You need a silent environment, truly introspective, and let go...
A Jesuit (priest) taught us to discern between
the True Self and the Fake Self
To throw away the Fake Self: your image, status and value in the eyes of others
throw away your benefit consideration
Only then can you find the true voice in your heart
Or what we call God’s voice for you
talking to you
So with monitoring or supervision
especially from what we describe as conscience
or the supervision of "god", no matter what your faith is
It does help
I’m not saying that this will guarantee someone a good person, an upright fellow
You can still find many priests, pastors, monks....
being messy in life, or trying best to please the regime
Everyone’s growth background is different, and they have various considerations
But with a faith, it helps to discern things
If you sincerely want to find out what the truth is, a faith can help
The conscience...needs Internal Peace to emerge itself
Only when you neglect your own interest, it emerges
A faith in God will help
So you know
on the opposite, conscience can easily go wrong under atheism
This is true because there is no monitoring nor supervision
I’m not saying that one side is smarter and more correct
But a System is important.   The phenomenon:
If there is no built-in monitoring, there will be cheating and lies
 (Good people will do bad things in a bad system)
