What are they protesting against?

During protests in the United States, overseas Chinese spoke out to express their dissatisfaction with the Chinese government's rule, protesting the CCP's domestic suppression of the public and its global malign influence, while calling for the release of political prisoners such as Jimmy Lai, Gao Zhisheng, and Wang Bingzhang.

I know that the United States is a free country, so I will stand here bravely today. I am speaking not only for us, but also for the Chinese people who suffer from unfair treatment day and night. Because I have seen the Chinese government use certain organizations to pay people to come and perform for them, acting as a crowd to say they welcome the Chinese government and its visit. But I want to come out and tell the world and the Chinese people that many of us do not recognize the rule of the Communist Party, and we represent this group of people who do not recognize it to come here and protest.

Well-known figures like Jimmy Lai, Gao Zhisheng, and Wang Bingzhang are all still in their prisons, so we hope they will release these political prisoners as soon as possible. My main reason for coming here today is my longing for freedom in China, and my opposition to the Chinese government's poisoning and suppression of the Chinese people and the world.
