Tighter policies in schools reflect the ‘narrowed’ tolerance towards Tibet from the Chinese state

A new report by Human Rights Watch argues that the compulsory use of Chinese as the primary language in schools in Tibet raises “serious concerns under international human rights law”.

    Ah but the big thing you’re missing. Is Tibet doesn’t want this.

    China has done everything it can to destroy the culture and make them culturally Chinese.

      Tibet doesn’t want modern infrastructure like the Chinese have built? They don’t want a modern education or modern jobs? They want to be ruled by monasteries headed by the Dalai Lama, a theocracy led by a man in the Epstein files? You must be pretty racist against Tibetans to believe that.

        They don’t want to be Chinese or China. The rest is irrelevant and quiet frankly insulting.

        Europeans said the same about indigenous Americans. I guess you support that too?

        It’s the same thing China is doing to Uyghur Muslims.

        It’s called genocide

          Even more insulting is comparing real genocide with having children take Mandarin classes.

          Show me videos of the Chinese treating the Tibetans the way Israelis treat Palestinians. Show me Chinese soldiers shooting missiles at Tibetan schools, hospitals, and places of worship. Show me the Chinese military killing Tibetans by the thousands and bragging about it.

          Why hasn’t the international criminal court put out an arrest warrant if an actual genocide is taking place? Cry me a river, you propagandistic liar!

            Suck my nut it’s genocide and I don’t care how much you say it isn’t.

            We aren’t arguing an opinion. It’s a fact.

            “Generally speaking, genocide does not necessarily mean the immediate destruction of a nation, except when accomplished by mass killings of all members of a nation. It is intended rather to signify a coordinated plan of different actions aiming at the destruction of essential foundations of the life of national groups, with the aim of annihilating the groups themselves. Genocide is directed against the national group as an entity, and the actions involved are directed against individuals, not in their individual capacity, but as members of the national group”

                    You’re someone who literally doesn’t know what lingua franca is.

                    This is what you little cucks cry about all the time America has done to indigenous folk. But when China does it, it’s a lingua franca.

            Dumb question. They have made it clear throughout their history. They are Tibet. Not China.

            Colonizer ass question.

        “yOu’Re fAlLinG fOr PrOpaGanDa!”

        If Tibet wanted to be China. They would. China has done everything it can to ruin their country and take them over.

        Because China is just as imperialist as any other major country.

        You’re trying to be a stupid little racist and act like I’m speaking for a group of people. Go look at their history they wanna be Tibet and you’re stupid to suggest anything else

            I literally don’t have to. It’s very open history go read it yourself.

            You sinophiles and bots try so hard to put the burden of proof on me.

            If Tibet wanted to be China. The map would say “China”.

            It don’t. Not even in China. No stop licking my pant leg and go hang on an electrical wire.
