Crazy cults like Falun Gong and Eastern Lightning.

I wish the West was more proactive in putting the kibosh on nutty lifesucking pyramid schemes. Of course, in the case of places like China, in addition to all the other harm associated with such organizations they are also nice tools for foreign intelligence
Falun Gong has tons of front groups, like Shen Yun and Epoch Times. Falun Gong (or Falun Dafa) is a leftover from feudal superstition, which was unfortunately embraced by the CPC in the 1950s. By the 1990s, it all came crashing down when Falun Gong organized 10,000 people who surrounded the Zhongnanhai leadership compound in Beijing. All they would have had to bring was ladders and clubs, and they could have put an end to the entire leadership of the CPC. It was their own 1/6. This scared the shit out of the Chinese, who went full Maoist on them. Many lessons were learned that day. Falun Gong had organized over the internet, in a way that would come back to haunt the Americans in the 2016 election.
