Do you mean CCP are popular within PRC? But less popular outside in the Chinese diaspora?

I would suspect what you said is true, but that wasn't my point.
My point was simply that the CCP != China.
They've put a huge amount of propaganda work into trying to conflate criticism of the party with hatred of the country (and by extension, the people in it), to the point where even foreigners start to drink the Kool-Aid.
It's simply untrue, however.
So many people really wish the CCP would just loosen their grip a bit so that foreigners/Westerners can have real, two-way relationships with Mainlanders.
Honestly, at least in the circles I frequent, the biggest critics of the CCP are either (non-Mainland) Chinese themselves or Sinophiles. Other people simply don't care that much.
