    From the article:

    > “All incidents were reported to the police and after thorough police searches they were all determined to be hoaxes. **Authorities have traced the origin of some of these messages to China.**”

    >*“These actions are part of a broader, well-documented effort by the Chinese Communist Party to try to stop Shen Yun from performing. Shen Yun portrays traditional Chinese culture before communism, as well as the reality of life under tyranny in China today–and this scares Beijing,” FDAT said.*

    This is CCP sponsored state terrorism on Canadian soil, simple as that.

    Waiting patiently for Mark Carney and the Liberal Party to step up… ⏳

    Here is a quick background on this:

    Shen Yun is basically a touring dance show tied to Falun Gong, a spiritual movement banned in China. The performances mix traditional Chinese culture with anti-communist messaging.

    Falun Gong has been heavily persecuted by the Chinese government since 1999 with things like arrests, propaganda campaigns, and reports of torture and forced labor.

    Shen Yun says it exists partly to raise awareness of that repression and claims it’s been targeted abroad too (though that’s disputed).

    At the same time, the group itself is controversial, with criticism over alleged internal practices and working conditions.

    Remember that you should be scared of china, you shouldn’t actually learn anything about it but you should absolutely be scared of whatever you’re told.

    Bomb threats are bad

    Evangelical nuts who hide religion in a show about their culture… Are also not so great.

  6. I always used to see this show advertised heavily in malls in North York. At first I thought it was some type of church or club. It always looked so cult like.

  7. Shen Yun is a cult. If you actually attend one of their shows, they literally show you propaganda messages on a giant screen and invite you to sing along. Just totally unsettling vibes honestly

    Falun Gong is a cult. Shen Yun is propaganda. The Epoch Times is literally the propaganda arm of Falun Gong, owned and operated. Falun Gong and the Epoch Times have been caught lying about China before. Also „traced to china“ is not at all the same thing as „Chinese state sponsored terrorism“.

  9. Shen Yun is run by Falun Gong, a high-control cult that holds extremist views, exploits its performers, discourages modern medical care, and funds massive political misinformation networks.

    The CCP sees them as a threat because they’ve managed to organize disruptive movements in the past, and have reacted with severe, documented human rights abuses.

    I don’t know much about Shen Yun, except that they’re against the current Chinese government, and attached to some sort of religious organization. Apparently they, or people who are affiliated with them, have their own news organization (Epoch Times), and a woman I had a crush on/flirtation with in middle school is a reporter for them, and that weirded me out when I found out.

  11. I don’t agree with and disavow the bomb threat. That said, I would love it if all Shen Yun shows were canceled for the rest of all time.

  12. Do people really want to see China before communism? China before communism was a bona fide sh*thole that was being torn between foreign powers and ruled by fractional warlords, not to mention the whole debacle between 1937 to 1945.

  13. I’m old enough to remember when Falun Gong had the full support of the general public because of the persecution the faced in China. News stories and documentaries on the importance of religious freedom in China. Now it’s a “cult” and slammed in the media. I wonder what’s changed.

    Like most cults, it’s all about the cult leader fucking the young wives of the dudes part of the cult. Like clockwork.
    The Falun Gong, the ones that put out Shen Yun, finance the Epoch Times. The right wing newsletter.

    I keep seeing ads on it where random white boomers say random stuff.

    „iT FiLLs tHe cUp“

    It’s so fucking dumb

  16. CCP advocates coming out strong in the comments, each one nearly identical to the next.

    Remember, it’s not Canada’s government that brands Shen Yun as a cult. It’s Chinas.
