The US is not what I’m referring to with “slaver theorcracy.” I know all y’all are ignorant of history, but can you really be that ignorant?
I refuse to engage with your rampant denial of facts and support of authoritarianism.
No human being deserves to live under a boot
Well, unless that boot belongs to a lama, apparently. Then they’re allowed to force you to work in chains until you die at 30 and anyone who tries to do anything about it, you’ll denounce as an “”“imperialist”“” and accuse of “murder” and “genocide.” Then you suddenly become perfectly fine with authoritarianism and think people should live under that boot forever.

Hey good news you’re now free. You better stop having your religion, your language, or your culture. Otherwise we will throw you in the skeleton river bone pile. Please say thank you or you guessed it bone pile.
Maybe we strive to support counties that don’t turn people into bone piles or slaves? Just a thought, you won’t get it though

Lol none of those things are remotely true. Tibetans are free to practice Buddhism and the vast majority speak their own language, as they were taught in schools.
That’s a good thought, you should try it sometime. Which makes me wonder, again, why you’re so upset that a slaver theocracy was ended.

Sure today, same could be said about the Native Americans. Doesn’t mean they didn’t expirence an active and ongoing genocide until recently. Doesn’t suddenly make those past actions didn’t happen.
You wouldn’t paint the conqistadors as saviors, but they ended a slave empire that practiced human sacrifice. Doesn’t absolve them of what they did after.
If China did this for the good of Tibet they wouldn’t have been annexed. Nor would they have had all of their resources exploited. But you know what’s a little colonialism, as long as your side does it right?
