asians chilling in mountains
>why are weird Western hippies obsessed with freeing it?
china called dibs but tibetans don't want to be chinese

They were a pretty cool and chill place with interesting culture and strict religious belief, until the fire nation attacked.

Thats racist they should learn to be more accepting of refugeees.

>>72532517
this isn't accepting refugees though, this is about one nation absorbing another, and forcing an entire people to give up political autonomy

Western liberals don't seem to understand that Tibet was a backwards medieval shithole and that it's a terrible thing how China built modern infrastructure, abolished serfdom, child marriage, made everyone go to school and attain basic literacy, etc.

>>72532278
Because Tibet is some weird sort of hybrid between Chinese and Indian culture.

China's policy towards national minorities seems enlightened on paper, but in reality it amounts to nothing more than keeping them as a buffer zone between Han Chinese and the neighboring states.

When exactly was Tibet a nation?

>>72532664
>political autonomy
Tibet was never autonomous in modern history though.
It used to be Chinese territory. Then the English invaded it. When the English GTFO, China claimed it back.

What's so wrong about it?

Not to mention North Korea will become a Chinese buffet state quite soon

Hello leftist

Qing territory isn't even "Chinese".

It like Mexicans claiming US territory dispite the fact it was Spanish territory

>>72532682
What about the influx of Chinese to displace and eventually outnumber the Tibetans?

>>72532682
You have to go back, Wang.

Do you feel it would be best if North Korea was taken over by China?

I don't know whether you've taken the Stockholm syndrome to a whole new level and made Japanese hate for China yours or if you're just genuinely uneducated, but after the Ming came the Qing, you know.

>implying it's not a puppet state already
Whenever it barks too loud, it gets the boot from China and STFU

>>72533477
It's not though. At this point Pyongyang has almost totally broken off contacts with China.

>>72533395
>implying China to invade Mongolia is legitimate

>>72533543
why tho

>>72533004
>Chinese buffet state

Fuck I need to move there ASAP

>>72533555
The fuck you're on about?
As long as a country is stronger than another one, it's legitimate to invade. Eat or get eaten

>>72532682
That'd be racist
If you want to make it acceptable to civilize primitives you have to end political correctness
Oh wait you are a Chinese refugee in Australia it'd be completely hypocritical of you to say anything about political correctness it's the whole reason you aren't a 1$/day rice peasant lol
Go back to China then you can talk

>>72533604
North Korea has always been far more independent than Westerners often think.

>>72532278
Oppressed chinese democrats who don't want to be chinese but are threatened with total destruction if they leave. There was a war for who was the "real china" and the people who lost were sent there.

>>72533555
>invade
manchus didnt invade. they were invited by chinese nobles to kill chinese peasants after the whole 'expansion and maintance of great wall and its garison fiasco'. they literally had gates opened for them.

>>72533477
North Korea is literally a rogue state

China barely even trades with it any more.

Nope I thought this thread was about Taiwan and just didn't feel like correcting myself

Haplogroup D = Jomon
Haplogroup O = Yayoi

Tibet was a feudal shithole before the chinks civilized them. Hippies shilling for a sovereign Tibet don't understand that they're essentially shilling for a regression to theocratic serfdom.
