Student among dozens who challenged China’s authorities to have been sent to psychiatric units, BBC finds.
In the old Soviet Union, if you disagreed with the government, you could get put into a psychiatric hospital. The government thinking was: If you don't like communism then you must be crazy.
Something similar has been going on in Communist China.
When Zhang Junjie was 17 he decided to protest outside his university about rules made by China's government. Within days he had been admitted to a psychiatric hospital and treated for schizophrenia. Junjie is one of dozens of people identified by the BBC who were hospitalised after protesting or complaining to the authorities. Many people we spoke to were given anti-psychotic drugs, and in some cases electroconvulsive therapy (ECT), without their consent. While there have been reports for decades that hospitalisation is used in China as a way of detaining dissenting citizens without involving the courts, a leading Chinese lawyer has told the BBC that the issue - which legislation sought to resolve - has recently seen a resurgence. Junjie says he was restrained and beaten by hospital staff before being forced to take medication. His ordeal began in 2022, after he protested against China's harsh lockdown policies. He says his professors spotted him after just five minutes and contacted his father, who took him back to the family home. He says his father called the police, and the next day - on his 18th birthday - two men drove him to what they claimed was a Covid test centre, but was actually a hospital. "The doctors told me I had a very serious mental disease… Then they tied me to a bed. The nurses and doctors repeatedly told me, because of my views on the party and the government, then I must be mentally ill. It was terrifying," he told the BBC World Service. He was there for 12 days. Junjie believes his father felt forced to hand him over to the authorities because he worked for the local government.
Junjie is just one of the people the BBC spoke with. His is not an isolated instance.

Because they make so many of our consumer goods, people in the West forget that China is a brutal totalitarian state. The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is the country's only legal political entity. In effect, the CCP is the government.
Under dictator Xi Jinping, the government is committing genocide against the Uighurs, repressing free speech in Hong Kong, and is helping Russia with its war of aggression in Ukraine. Add to this Xi's military provocations against the Philippines and threatening rhetoric aimed at Taiwan and we see an out of control autocrat with imperialistic ambitions.

Clarification and Recognition of our Holy Covenant Testimony in Light of the Latter Days - the Last Days.
As a follower of Christ, I firmly acknowledge the Holy Covenant established by God in both the Old and New Testaments. While I stand on the truth of salvation and full redemption through the work of Jesus Christ on the cross, I feel led to clarify my position on an important matter related to modern Christianity and the New Covenant.
The transition from the Church Age to the prophesied Millennial Age is marked by a deeper understanding of the vision of the end times described in Daniel 9:24 and the 70 Weeks prophecy. This signals the abrupt end of the current world and the commencement of a Millennial Age of peace. The vision of the end spans a period described in the Bible simply as "many days."
My concern is not with the gospel of salvation per say itself, though yet is paramount until the rapture but with how some aspects of church growth today often elevate human hierarchy—such as Pastors, Deacons, and Bishops—at the expense of true unity by God's Holy Spirit. They stand between the very nature and spirit of God and every man. Upon the rapture, the Church, as the body of Christ, ceases to exist in the world. The events and ages following the rapture are part of the "many days" of the end times, as accurately outlined in scripture. These events are likely appointed to the Gentile community remaining after the rapture, as referenced in Daniel chapters 7-12. Revelation 11:1 further emphasizes this, stating, "The court outside is given unto the Gentiles."
I believe that when these roles become (so) too centralized, they obscure Christ’s role as the Head of the Church (Colossians 1:18). Congregations that place undue emphasis on these positions should consider dismantling such structures and instead gather together in humility, worshiping Christ alone in whatever location they can, with no need for a formal building. The focus should not be on man-made hierarchies but on fostering authentic, Christ-centered fellowship that adheres to the spirit of the New Covenant.
This view is rooted in my understanding of the prophetic word in Daniel 11:28-33, particularly verse 30, where it is foretold that there will arise "forsakers of the holy covenant." These forces can subtly draw people away from the true essence of faith by emphasizing external structures over internal devotion. While the church age was once necessary, I believe (for Christians) we are in a season when believers are being called back to a pure and unbroken devotion to Christ alone — a simple, direct relationship with Him, free from dependence on institutional structures.
A Christian Orientation
(note: Muslim or Jew? - you give a clear dissent statement in comments to include yourself with the group. Follow opportunity)
I believe we are now in a time where believers are called to return to the simple, direct relationship with Christ as their only Savior, rather than relying on institutional forms.
Furthermore, I acknowledge that this dissent also extends to other religions that trace their heritage back to Abraham, namely Islam and Judaism just the same. While Christianity holds fast to the New Covenant, Islam and Judaism still operate under the frameworks of the Old Covenant, each with its own unique departures from the Holy Covenant. The covenants are all one Covenant For instance now, in Islam, there is, it is viewed as a strong need to address and dissent from any acts of violence or terrorism carried out in the name of religion, as these are clearly against God's holy standard as a Christian Orientation perceives the Word of God . Similarly, Judaism’s focus on works-based faith and a national return to the covenant by legislation in the latter days invites reflection and reform, especially regarding their understanding of the Holy Covenant and the coming Messiah.
The author reaffirms commitment to the Holy Covenant through Christ's work and his ministry, rooted in both the Old and New Testaments, while expressing concern over modern Christian leadership structures (such the likes of pastors, priests or bishops and all higher places) that may overshadow the unity and direct communication believers should have with Jesus—especially in light of end-times prophecy tied to the "many days" and the transition into the Millennial Age.
There is scriptural warning against centralized religious hierarchies, which can obscure Christ’s role as the true Head of the Church. The author homages Daniel’s prophecy about "forsakers of the holy covenant" and urges believers to return to humble, Spirit-led gatherings—free from institutional trappings—and instead center worship solely on Christ.
This dissent also extends to Judaism and Islam, which the author views as rooted in the Old Covenant and in need of reform to re-align with God’s standards. Rather than promoting religious uniformity, the writer envisions a harmony among Christianity, Islam, and Judaism—founded on shared Abrahamic roots—united in honoring the Holy Covenant without erasing their distinct identities.
My personal mission is not to advocate for a one-world religion but to foster a collective group of believers from Christianity, Islam, and Judaism (others 🧑🦱 🤔) , grounded in the common heritage of Abraham. By recognizing our shared spiritual ancestry, I believe we can harmonize our understanding of the Holy Covenant and serve the Lord together in unity, without compromising the distinctions of each faith. This movement is about seeking the truth of God’s covenant, as prophesied in Daniel 11, and standing against those who would forsake it for the sake of worldly gain, misguided doctrine or some now frivolous church age traditions.
In the end, my desire is to see believers from all three of these Abrahamic faiths, not uniting under a single religious banner, but coming together as a growing collective to share and uphold the teachings of the Holy Covenant, centered on faithfulness to God, righteousness, and the truth of salvation.

(Image credit – Canadian Mennonite Magazine – The birth of Anabaptism in fire and water) The Protestant Reformation changed Europe, and hence the West, forever. As we’ve previously noted in this series, the monopoly of religious faith held by the Roman Catholic Church ended. The Protestant Reformers had not intended to form a whole new, third major branch of Christianity, the first two being…

Dissenters: Portraying the Church as Wrong So They can be Right Without It
Dissenters often portray the Church as wrong to validate their own beliefs and practices outside of it. They may claim superior knowledge, righteousness, or experiences compared to the mainstream Church members. This superiority complex necessitates a nar
Brian C. Hales Interpreter: A Journal of Mormon Scripture 10 (2014) This essay explores the reasons behind the estrangement of individuals from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church), particularly focusing on dissenters who argue that the Church is not led by inspired leaders. A common justification for their departure is the “Samuel Principle,” which suggests that God…
‘Operation Knock-Knock’: Venezuela Sweeps Up Dissenters After Disputed Vote
Why is nobody talking about how TFS is a story of redemption. I realised it yesterday; how we "destroy" the Witness not by feeding it enough bullets, but by giving the Dissenters the opportunity at penance and redemption. We don't even "redeem" them by our hand! It's their own choice, and we merely help them achieve this goal. We topple the Witness by beaming Light at it; by literally letting the Light in. TFS is a story about how there is never too late to turn back; how the door is always open, the option to change your mind is always on the table, there for you to take it; you can always, always, return to the Light. There is always forgiveness there for you. TWQ was revolutionary by presenting this idea with regards to the Hive (and Savathûn in particular), you know, the worst murderous race in the cosmos--but the Witness is so much worse. It is as close as it gets to the devil. It's THE evil-maker of the universe. And yet there was a part of it that wanted to change, that made the choice to repent, and *this* is what allowed us to finally triumph over it. I'm so insane about this. There is always always always always hope for you, no matter how far gone you think you are.
