Their main point is that the CCP is corrupt and aren't doing what's best for the people - no surprise there. But this really isn't talked about much and that's part of what they're trying to achieve.

There's also a lot of human rights abuse going on especially with the Uyghurs and I for one welcome them shedding light onto the issue.

The only criticism I have about them is sometimes they can come off as mocking China or Chinese people, which CCP defenders interpret as racism. If they just stick to the CCP criticisms then it would be much more free from haters.
Haters will always be haters. Even if they don't openly criticise the CCP the urban Chinese population will still call them racists. This is a third world mentality common in all third world countries.

Even the famous Chinese YouTube chef Wang Gang almost got cancelled for posting his egg fried rice video on the "wrong day".
