The following is a personal renunciation of the Chinese Communist Party received through tuidang.epochtimes.com. Since the publication of the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party, tens of millions of such statements have been received. Learn more about this phenomenon.

I am a Lieutenant in the armed forces in China. I have decided to quit the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).

When I first joined the CCP, I mistakenly felt it was an honor; the secretary of the party committee of our village was quite a powerful person. In the academy of the armed forces, party membership was something that every student pursued and fought for. Some students competed with each other by bringing the specialties from their hometown to the captain in order to make a good impression and obtain party membership.

In the beginning I didn’t feel there was anything wrong with this. Joining the party was said to reap benefits for oneself, so everyone wanted to join the party. However, I had no idea of what the specific benefits are. The party doesn’t tell people publicly, so I was clueless as to what party membership really meant.

After working for a period of time in the armed forces, all of what I encountered has shown me that people use their power for personal benefits. In addition, many high level army officials trifle with women and desert them afterwards. All in all, it is dark, messy and corrupt.

I came from a rural area. My mother only attended elementary school. She often said: the CCP today is even worse than the KMT (Chinese Nationalist Party). Busy working in the fields all year long, contributing all the harvest to the government is still not enough, without even including the labor cost. Life in the Chinese countryside is very tough under the CCP.

After I read the Nine Commentaries of the Communist Party, I finally realized that in fact all Chinese people could have lived a much more civilized life without the CCP and its trampling of true Chinese culture. Throughout the 5000 years of China’s dynasties, Chinese people displayed dignity, creativity and morality. After learning in depth all of what the CCP has done during it’s decades in power, I was really angry. The Chinese people are just like ants under tyranny, they wouldn’t even make a sound when crushed to death. All Chinese peasants, including my mother, sadly struggle through these decades of tyranny.

Therefore, I denounce the CCP and make the wish that it be disintegrated.
