From the very first day the “Quit the CCP” movement began, I have believed it to be one of the greatest self-rescue movements in human history. As Mr. Jiang Fan mentioned, when the number of people who had renounced the Party reached one million, I was in New York co-hosting a rally with a friend surnamed Wei. At that time, I said that quitting the CCP is akin to leaving the mafia or organized crime — it is a process of freeing oneself from a life constrained, controlled, and hijacked by a brutal system.
For individuals, leaving the CCP is not merely a matter of faith or personal moral reconstruction; it is an act of self-rescue. In a society where moral decay is rampant and human life is treated like an ant, every person present at these gatherings is a hero saving lives.
Under CCP rule, human nature, morality, and belief are all comprehensively destroyed. Some may claim to live well materially, but that is not the entirety of life. When freedom, choice of belief, moral judgment, and social conscience are stripped away, the CCP reduces people to “Communist humans” — zombie-like beings devoid of humanity, kindness, justice, and civility, obedient only to the Party’s commands.
Leaving the Party is humanity’s redemption
Over the past 26 years, Falun Gong practitioners have promoted the “Quitting the CCP” movement (withdrawal from the Party, the Youth League, and the Young Pioneers), giving people a choice: to remove themselves from the CCP’s bloody authoritarian machinery, to step down from the role of a mere cog or instrument, and even to awaken from the corrupted souls of killers or perpetrators, restoring human dignity. “Quitting the CCP” is not only a personal redemption of human nature but has also had a profound impact on China, forming a strong force against the CCP’s drive to “Communize” society.

In free countries like Canada, Falun Gong practitioners have resisted CCP infiltration, including its attempts to buy media, control politicians, and influence elections. The CCP’s reach has jeopardized communities built on freedom, democracy, human rights, and the rule of law. Therefore, the “Quitting the CCP” movement represents not only the salvation of individuals and China but also the defense of global civilization and the advancement of world peace — it is a fight against evil forces.
Propelling civilization forward
We will prevail because the collapse of the CCP’s authoritarian regime is inevitable; even the Party itself knows its evil reign will end. The key question is how to survive its fall without being destroyed alongside it. Each person faces a crucial choice: we should not perish with the CCP’s tyranny. Instead, we must choose to follow the principles of Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance, becoming conscientious, upright, courageous, and dignified human beings. This movement will propel world civilization forward.
I hope the world sees that we reject turning to ashes with the CCP. By choosing Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance, we become a powerful force in human history by helping civilization advance globally.
