Well, one should note that The Epoch Times is brought to you by the propaganda arm of the anti-CCP Falun gong.

China always calls people and organisations who disagree with the government nasty names. Terrorists, propagandists, meddlers, revolutionists etc.

This continual name-calling of anyone who criticises any aspect of their government leads me to always doubt the sincerity of such accusations. Boy who cried wolf, writ large.

Could you provide independent sources that this Falun Gong spreads propaganda?

Don't believe either CCP or me? How about NYT?

Assuming you believe the the propaganda spread by the CCP about falun gong to begin with.

You only need to believe them to realize they're an insane racist cult.

Considering the CCP has along history of going after religion and is persecuting religion and religious people to this day, its difficult to believe that it's a 'racist cult' when prior to 1999 it was fine, and then the CCP realised it was gaining popularity and all of a sudden it's declared an evil cult that the CCP has used to blame everything on over the years.

This is all completely irrelevant to the argument at hand. According to the Falun Gong themselves all interracial children are barred from Heaven, with their own special racism class system. I'm not quoting anyone but themselves.

Beyond that, cults are obviously more dangerous the larger they are. That goes by itself.

> cults are obviously more dangerous the larger they are.

And the biggest cult in the world is the CPP -- no, correction: Judging from some posters' claims here about how all of China fervently believes Taiwan must be "reunited" with the PRC, the biggest cult in the world is... the PRC.
