我得知民主党是一次偶然的机会。我当时在一家做移民的律所上班，然后在工作中发现该律所在谷歌搜索引擎上收藏了民主党的网站。我因为好奇，所以就点进去阅读了起来。该网站展示和宣扬民主政治，诉求中国政府要改革一党专政的独裁体制，要民主自由，要法制，要人权。我惊奇的发现民主党的诉求与我的想法很吻合，所以我就找到了民主党王军涛主席的联系方式，然后约见了王主席。
王主席很热情，给我介绍了很多党内的事情，同时我也意识到了如果真的加入民主党，可能会把我的生命和人生安全置于危险当中，所以与王军涛主席见面后我用几个月的时间来思考需不需要加入民主党。最终我还是选择了加入，因为中国国内的白纸运动沸沸扬扬，然后世界各地的留学生都在参加讨伐共产党和习近平。要求共产党下台，习近平下台。我也想参加抗议活动，表示对国内白纸运动的支持。这时，我想到民主党是一个平台，我可以和其他党员一起参加抗议活动。国内那么多有为青年都在那样的高压政策下选择站起来发声， 更何况我在美国，所以何必那么害怕？
我曾经也是被中共洗脑教育成功的小粉红。把爱国跟爱党等同起来。只要有外国人提中国不好或者是称中国为第三世界，我就会跳起来跟他争论。也绝对认为新疆问题是内政，外国人不得干涉内政，也绝对没有想到或者看到人权问题。那些人被关在集中营劳教的人 吃尽苦头，那些莫名其妙失踪的人，我在国内的新闻媒体中不会看到有任何蛛丝马迹的。我还一直认为台湾自古是中国的一部分，等等。
但是三年的美国法学院开阔了我的眼见，让我认识什么是民主制度。三权分立， 尊重人权，政府不是一手遮天独裁把国民当成奴隶。在这么开明的国家里，我是第一次体验到了前所未有的真正的自由：没有防火墙，更没有动不动就微博禁言，对总统的不满可以随意发表意见。这在中国是没办法想象的。然后一二月份的铁链女事件惊动了全国和全世界的华人。 这个事件让人们害怕，害怕自己随时会成为下一个铁链女。只要共产党不高兴就给你栓个铁链，让你乖乖地做共产党的奴隶。家里两个兄弟和一个父亲都强奸铁链女。铁链女自己还骂他们一窝都是强奸犯。让你被强奸了，还要主动配合强奸继续进行。铁链女被铁链拴着脖子，像猪一样的被圈养在又破又旧又小又矮的房子里，大冬天的就穿一件毛衣，冷得不得了。就这样活得像猪一样的女人为这个家庭生了八个孩子。由于铁链女事情, 因而揭发了江苏作为全国的经济强省有着历史悠久的拐卖妇女犯罪。拐卖的妇女都受到非人的对待，有些还是大学生被骗到农村并且强迫他们给低俗没文化的农民当媳妇。
铁链女事件触动了人们心中最脆弱的那根弦。铁链女涉及到妇女的安全和女性的基本权利，因为你不知道铁链女事件也许会发生在你的母亲身上，也许会发生在你的女儿身上，或者你的妹妹身上等。你的所有女性亲属都有可能成为下一个铁链女。推而广之，中国的政治体制是高压政策，只要有谁发表了对当局政府的不满，就有可能铁拳下来，给你给罪名把你关押起来，拳打脚踢，严刑拷打。就是一根无形的铁链永远栓着每一个人的脖子。
自从铁链女事件之后，我就会在微信和推特上转发很多支持铁链女声讨中国政府需要铁链女的真相。我们想知道她到底是谁，她从哪里来，她为什么会变成现在的样子。虽然政府连续发了五份报告，但是网民相信那些都是假的，因为铁链女到现在为止已经以去精神病院就医为借口彻底的消失了。任何人都没有再见到她。虽然是罢免了一些政府官员，但是这些都是行政责任，网友们想追究那些造成铁链女的人的刑事责任。
从那个时候开始，我就越来越坚定了我的反对共产党的意愿。后来的疫情清零政策发生很多骇人听闻的事情。严厉的封锁，导致很多人饿死，发疯，跳楼 等。很多人因为其他病得不到救治而死亡。还有乌鲁木齐的火灾事件也是因为小区大楼被封，人们逃不出来被活活烧死十个人，更有受伤多人。被烧死人的惨叫和小孩的哀求是我听过最惨痛人间的叫声。也是因为乌鲁木齐火灾事件引发了白纸抗议革命。
由于种种原因终于看透了共产党一党专政独裁统治的体制弊端让人们永远都是为少数共产党人服务的奴隶，没有自由，更没有人权， 更没有可靠的法律系统可以上诉。希望通过与民主党各位党员的一同努力，希望中国有朝一日也是和民主，自由，有人权和法制的国家。

Me and China Democratic Party
I learned about the China Democratic Party by chance. I was working at an immigration law firm, and at work, I discovered that the law firm had bookmarked the China Democratic Party's website on Google's search engine. Because I was curious, I clicked in and read it. The website displays and promotes democratic politics, appealing to the Chinese government to reform the one-party dictatorship system and to demand democracy, freedom, the rule of law, and human rights. I was surprised to find that the demands of the China Democratic Party were very consistent with my ideas, so I found the contact information of Chairman Wang Juntao of the China Democratic Party, and then made an appointment with Chairman Wang.
Chairman Wang was very enthusiastic and introduced me to many things at the party. At the same time, I also realized that if I joined the China Democratic Party, I might put my life and personal safety in danger. So, after meeting with Chairman Wang Juntao, I used a few months to think about whether or not to join the China Democratic Party. In the end, I chose to join, because the white paper movement in China was raging, and then students studying abroad all over the world participated in protests against the China Communist Party and Xi Jinping: demanding the China Communist Party step down and Xi Jinping step down. I also want to join the protests and show my support for the white paper movement in China. At this time, it occurred to me that the China Democratic Party is a platform where I can participate in protests with other party members. So many promising young people in China choose to stand up and speak out under such high-pressure policies, not to mention that I am in the United States, so why should I be so afraid?
I used to be a “little pink” who was brainwashed and educated by the CCP, equating patriotism to the CCP with patriotism to the country itself. As long as a foreigner mentions China is bad or calls China the third world, I would jump up and argue with him. I also absolutely believed that the Xinjiang issue is an internal affair, and foreigners are not allowed to interfere in internal affairs, and I have never thought of or seen any human rights issues. Those who were imprisoned in concentration camps suffered a lot, and those who disappeared inexplicably, I would never see any clues in relation to those things in the domestic news media. I also always thought that Taiwan has been part of China since ancient times, and so on.
But three years of American legal education broadened my horizons and let me know what a democratic system is. With the separation of powers and respect for human rights, the government is not a dictatorship that treats citizens as slaves. For the first time in such an enlightened country, I experienced unprecedented real freedom: there is no firewall, and there is no ban on freedom of speech on any social media, and I can express my dissatisfaction with the president at will. This is unimaginable in China. Then the incident of the Chained Woman in January and February shocked Chinese people all over the country and around the world. This incident made people afraid that they could become the next chained woman at any time. As long as the Communist Party is not happy, it will put an iron chain on you and make you obediently a slave of the China Communist Party. Two brothers and a father in the family raped the chained woman. The Chained Woman herself called them all rapists. Let you be raped, but also actively cooperate with rapists to let the rape continue. The Chained Woman was chained around her neck and kept like a pig in a dilapidated, old, small, and low house. She wore only a sweater in winter, and it was extremely cold. In this way, the woman who lived like a pig gave birth to eight children for the family. Because of the Chained Woman incident, it was revealed that Jiangsu, a rich province in China has a long history of abducting and trafficking women. The trafficked women are treated inhumanely. Some of them are college students who are tricked into rural areas and forced to be wives of vulgar and uneducated peasants.
The incident of the Chained Woman touched the weakest string in people's hearts. Because you don't know that the Chained Woman incident may happen to your mother, it may happen to your daughter, your sister, etc. All of your female relatives have the potential to be the next Chained Woman. By extension, China's political system is under high-pressure and draconian authoritarianism. As long as anyone expresses dissatisfaction with the government, he may be imprisoned, punched, kicked, and tortured. It is an invisible iron chain tied around everyone's neck forever.
Since the Chained Woman incident, I have reposted a lot of posts supporting the Chained Woman, denouncing the Chinese government on WeChat and Twitter. We want to know who she is, where she came from, and why she became the way she is. Although the government issued five reports, we believed that they were all fake, because the Chained Woman has completely disappeared up to now under the pretext of going to a mental hospital for medical treatment. No one ever saw her again. Although some government officials were dismissed, these are administrative responsibilities. We want to pursue criminal responsibility for those who caused the tragedy to the Chained Woman.
Since then, I have become more and more determined to oppose the China Communist Party. Many appalling things happened in the subsequent zero-epidemic policy. The severe lockdown policies caused many people to starve to death, go crazy, jump off buildings, etc. Many people died due to untreated other diseases. The fire incident in Urumqi was also caused by the closure of the community building, and people could not escape. Ten people were burned to death, and many more were injured. The screams of the burnt people and the pleadings of children are the most painful human cries I have ever heard. It was also because of the Urumqi fire incident that triggered a protest revolution with white blank paper.
Due to various reasons, I have finally seen through the institutional drawbacks of the one-party dictatorship of the China Communist Party. People will always be slaves serving a small number of Communists. There is no freedom, no human rights, and no reliable legal system to appeal. I hope that through the joint efforts of all members of the China Democratic Party, China will one day be a country that has democracy, freedom, human rights, and the rule of law.
