It's a tool of Falun Gong. Falun Gong doesn't like the Chinese government because of the crackdown on Falun Gong. That doesn't make it a friend or tool of the United States.

Falun Gong believes a bunch of untrue things, but China also doesn't allow free expression. They don't just crack down on cults. They crack down on any dissent.

Yes, I'm well aware, but it seems like the person I replied to thinks they are a tool of the Chinese state instead of a useful stooge of the CIA.
