Taiwan, China, and other things. Recovered from the defunct TypePad platform.
Guess they don't approve of the Chinese Communist Party tearing down their crosses and blowing up their churches.
In an online campaign, church leaders in the eastern province of Zhejiang have called on Christians to craft hundreds of small wooden crosses, paint them red, and display them at home or on their cars.
The CCP's persecution of Falun Gong started in much the same manner, if I recall correctly.

Say, when will Taiwan's China Post publish paeans to Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi's wisdom? Because he's clearly emulating the wise and farsighted policies of the Post's beloved President Xi Xinping.
Not to mention Joseph Stalin. Let us not forget Comrade Joe Stalin.
Big cathedral go boom.

Chinese Communist Party arrests artist Dai Jianyong for irreverent photoshop of President Xi Jinping
Dai is known for posting eclectic photos on social media, including some showing himself and others scrunching up their lips and eyes. Dai posted images of Xi with the same expression while wearing a mustache.
Some online commentators have compared the Xi portrait to Adolf Hitler, although Dai's Instagram image has much broader mustache than the small, square-shaped, "toothbrush mustache" associated with Hitler…
In response, Xi angrily denied any similarity between himself and the late German Führer. (After which, he sentenced the artist to 10 years in a concentration camp.)
Comrade Joe Hung of the China Post complained last week that Taiwan's students and opposition parties are a bunch of big meanies for preventing President Ma Ying-jeou from surrendering the country to the Chinese Communist Party:
The opposition party has been bullying the Hong Kong-born Kuomintang president since he was first inaugurated in May 2008. The bully preys on those who are afraid of him. As they show fear, the bullying gets all the more overbearing. It's a vicious cycle.
[…]
He has been a pushover for more than seven years, in addition to being labeled as an incompetent president. Actually, he isn't incompetent. He is a victim of the bullying.
Which leads to the inevitable question: If President Ma really is the spineless coward that Joe Hung declares him to be, why is it so difficult for his supporters to imagine that he'd capitulate to Communist China?
(Or is Joe Hung so divorced from reality as to believe that the Chinese Communist Party is a lesser bully than the DPP and the Sunflower Movement?)
The CCP's must be a pretty insecure lot if they're that afraid of librarians.
With us, as always, is eminent historian Joe Hung of Taiwan's China Post, to explain the complex constitutional rationale behind China's exploitation and genocide of Tibetans, Uighurs and Falun Gong adherents:
Sounds legit.

Kinda demolishes pro-Communist Joe Hung's lunatic contention that China follows the "kingly way, which is based on benevolence, justice and morality," doesn't it?
