The incredible story of Alex, forced to flee to China for documenting
poverty in the U.S.
Arnaud Bertrand Jan 29, 2026
The hottest term on Chinese social media right now is rCLkill-linerCY: if you go to Xiaohongshu, Bilibili or Douyin, everyone is speaking about it.
Why? It all has to do with the story of Alex, known as rCLteoArCY (rCLL|io ArCY,
literally rCLprison ArCY where A stands for Alex), a Chinese medical/biology student based in Seattle, USA, who worked part-time as a forensic
assistant collecting unclaimed bodies (primarily homeless people).
YourCOve doubtlessly never heard of him but he probably single-handedly shattered what remained of the rCLAmerican DreamrCY myth for an entire generation of young Chinese.
Two weeks ago, after being doxxed and becoming the topic of a NYT article
- and legitimately fearing for his life as a result - Alex took the
dramatic decision to abandon his medical degree and flee the U.S. for
China. All for the crime ofrCa describing what he saw at work.
