Communism is surging in popularity among young college-aged students around the world, primarily because history has been erased and distorted. This prompted a young Cuban man to approach a Chinese woman promoting Communism in the west.
When the Cuban, a refugee from the Communist nation of Cuba, understood that the young Chinese lady was promoting Communism, he asked her one simple question that completely destroyed her argument in support of the atheistic idea of Communism.
“Where are you from?” the man simply asked.
“From China,” she answered.
“So if you are from China, then why do you live here?”
“Because China sucks,” she admitted.
“So why are you promoting that,” he asked pointing at her sign. “I am from a Communist country. I know what Communism is,” he said as they packed up and ran away.
The ignorance that our current society has about the death and destruction of Communism is in no small measure due to China’s heavy investments into education in a scheme known as Confucius Institutes. Confucius Institutes are a series of Chinese government-funded centers, established at universities around the globe and run with funding from the Chinese government. The teachers at these government-funded institutes are trained, and paid, by the Chinese state. By using the name Confucius Institute, instead of Communist Institute, the Chinese government is able to promote Communism without advertising what they are really doing.
Chinese Christians have suffered extreme persecution for more than 75 years under Communism. The persecution has not ended. The persecution of believers continues today and is just one of the many reasons why BTJ shares stories and information on a daily basis through articles, newsletters, and podcasts with supporters around the world.
