Over 1,000 Signs Collected from Across China in Support of Shanghai's 'White Paper Revolution' and Release of Arrested Protestors | 超千人联合签名声援上海的“白纸运动”并呼吁当局释放被捕者

Chinese Netizens Unite to Support Shanghai "White Paper Revolution" and Demand Release of Arrested Protestors


Despite China's strict internet censorship and media regulation, a group of citizens have managed to gather over 1,000 signs of support from 250+ cities and 30 provinces for the protestors in Shanghai's "White Paper Revolution" and their call for the release of arrested individuals. This marks the first such effort to emerge from mainland China, and we applaud the courage of those who participated in this campaign.


To ensure the safety of those involved, all personal information has been redacted and only limited IP addresses are being used to identify the signatories. It is clear that this groundswell of support from Chinese citizens highlights the deepening frustration and dissatisfaction with the government's handling of sensitive issues.


We urge the authorities to respect the rights of peaceful protestors and release those who have been unjustly detained. This is a critical moment for China to show the world that it is committed to upholding human rights and promoting the rule of law.



中国网民团结一致,声援上海“白纸革命”,要求释放被捕抗议者


尽管中国有着严格的互联网审查和媒体监管,但一群网民设法收集到了来自250多个城市和30个省份的超过1,000个支持上海“白纸革命”的标志,并呼吁当局释放被捕者。这标志着这是首次在中国大陆出现这样的努力,我们赞扬参与此次活动的人们的勇气。


为确保参与者的安全,所有个人信息已经进行了去标识化处理,只使用有限的IP地址来识别签署者。显然,中国公民的这种支持浪潮凸显了人们对政府处理敏感问题的愈发沮丧和不满。


我们敦促当局尊重和平抗议者的权利,并释放那些被不公正拘留的人。这是中国向世界展示其致力于维护人权和促进法治的关键时刻。

China Spring: Tiananmen Square on Jun 4, 1989 | 中国之春:“8964”事件

Why did the Tiananmen Square incident happen on June 4, 1989? The June 4th incident on Tiananmen Square in 1989 was caused by a series of political, social, and economic factors. Political instability: 1989 was a period of political instability in China, due to various historical reasons including China's response to the Soviet Union, domestic anti-corruption struggles, and economic reform processes, leading to political instability and social unrest. Economic difficulties: In the late 1980s, China's economy encountered a series of problems, including inflation, rising unemployment, stagnant wages, etc., making life difficult for the people, especially for those in the low-income strata. Political repression: In the 1980s, the Chinese government's control over intellectuals and civil society became increasingly stronger, and restrictions on freedom of speech also intensified, leading to dissatisfaction and resentment among many people towards the government.

Minority Groups in China: Sacrificed "Cost" and Collectivist Tyranny | 中国少数群体:被牺牲的“代价”与集体主义的暴政

In China, minority groups such as the LGBT community, migrant workers, elderly people living alone, and disabled individuals have always been in disadvantaged positions. Due to collectivist tyranny and censorship, the Chinese people can only choose to ignore the suffering of minority groups, or even pray that such suffering does not befall them. The effect of this collectivist mentality is that during major social crises, the Chinese government is willing to sacrifice the interests of minority groups in order to achieve rapid transformation. For example, during the COVID-19 pandemic, policy changes solved the epidemic problem but also led to over 1.5 million infections and deaths, equivalent to the entire population of Philadelphia in the United States. The LGBT community in China faces exclusion and discrimination, and they encounter significant difficulties in employment, education, and healthcare. Migrant workers lack legal protection and often fail to receive their deserved wages d...

The Evolution of Taiwan Issue in China's Constitution | 从中国宪法角度看台湾的历史问题

  The earliest version of China's Constitution edited in 1954 did not mention the issue of Taiwan. Mao Zedong once led a group of people to spend 77 days drafting this constitution by the West Lake, but Taiwan was never mentioned. Later, in the new version of the Constitution revised in 1975, which was formulated during the Cultural Revolution, the Taiwan issue was still not mentioned. After that, Hua Guofeng came to power and issued the version of the Constitution in 1978. For the first time, Taiwan was mentioned in this constitution as a sacred part of China's territory, and the constitution proposed to liberate Taiwan. Hua Guofeng stressed that liberation was not just unification, but also the elimination of the Chiang Kai-shek clique. By the time of the version of the Constitution in 1982, the description of the Taiwan issue was the same as it is now. The constitution regarded Taiwan as a sacred part of China's territory and emphasized that reunification of the motherla...
