We're currently being bombarded with advertisements for upcoming Seattle performances of Shen Yun, a spectacular performance of traditional Chinese music, dance, culture, and, um, Falun Gong propaganda.
Certainly the Chinese government considers them a dangerous and illegal cult. It fits the definition of a wildly popular movement with a single charismatic leader. I don't know enough about it, but find the whole Shen Yun thing, which doesn't mention the religious aspect in its advertising, to be a bit deceptive at best.
What do you guys think?
