When a person, long subjected to tyranny, decides to sever all ties with an illegitimate power and reclaim the dignity and liberty endowed by the Creator, a decent respect to the opinions of humankind requires that the causes which impel them to separation be declared.
We hold these truths to be self-evident:
that all men are created equal;
that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights;
that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Justice.
To secure these rights, governments derive their just powers from the consent of the governed.
Whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to refuse its authority, dismantle its institutions, and to establish a new foundation for their security and freedom.
Therefore, I, a citizen of China and a Certified Public Accountant officially registered under the current regime of the People’s Republic of China, do solemnly declare the following:
I. Rejection of the Regime’s Legitimacy
I do not recognize the legitimacy of the so-called “People’s Republic of China.”
Since 1949, this regime has usurped national sovereignty without the consent of the people, has never conducted a free election, and has never been vested with moral or legal authority.
Its continued existence violates the principles of constitutionalism, human rights, and the national will.
II. Denial of All Governing Authority
I do not recognize the Chinese Communist Party’s right to levy taxes, enact laws, enforce regulations, or exercise judicial authority over me or the people of China.
All of its institutions are, in my view, unlawful organs of tyranny and coercion, not expressions of justice or national sovereignty.
III. Refusal of Representation
I refuse to be represented by the Chinese Communist Party or any of its controlled organs in any international organization, diplomatic proceeding, or political discourse.
This regime does not speak for China, does not speak for Chinese civilization, and certainly does not speak for me.
IV. Affirmation of Universal Values
I firmly uphold the universal values of liberty, democracy, rule of law, freedom of religion, and freedom of expression.
I identify with and support the modern global order founded upon these values—particularly as embodied by the United States of America.
V. Declaration of Hostile Nature
I affirm that the Chinese Communist Party constitutes an authoritarian system of organized violence against its own people and a clear and present danger to global civilization.
Its actions meet the legal and moral standards of crimes against humanity, cultural genocide, and terrorism.
I call upon all nations to formally designate the Chinese Communist Party as a terrorist organization and enemy of mankind.
VI. Commitment to Justice
I hereby pledge to support efforts to document, expose, and prosecute the Chinese Communist Party’s historical and ongoing crimes.
I am willing to testify, provide evidence, and support international legal, economic, and moral actions until this organization is fully dismantled and the Chinese people are free.
VII. Rebuilding Identity on Truth
My political identity, cultural belonging, legal allegiance, and spiritual dignity are no longer subject to the apparatus of the Chinese Communist regime.
I now base my identity upon truth, freedom, faith, and the shared heritage of mankind—not the fabricated ideologies of a criminal political organization.
This declaration is made in the spirit of the Declaration of Independence of the United States of America (1776), and shall stand as a permanent testimony of my conscience, my liberty, and my solemn contract with God and with history.
