I was instilled with communism when I was young and I thought the ideology of communism was good and stood for the happiness of people, so I joined the CYL. My experience and observations over the past tens of years, particularly, witnessing the bloody past of the CCP during the Anti-Rightists Movement, the Cultural Revolution, the Tiananmen Square Massacre and the persecution of Falun Gong, changed my opinion of the CCP entirely. In the past year, I realized that the CCP is in fact a cult that has committed countless crimes.
