10zin You do realise Taiwan also claims Tibet as part of their country right? Its in their constitution.

@liftingweights Youre a bot. Copy pasting the same message on every comment. How much you get paid doing this? Oh and also, what does stating Taiwans constitution got anything to do with the communists?

@TheNamgyal24 "seems at the moment you are lost ignorant child" Im ignorant? Im a child to you? So arrogant. So you are claiming that Taiwan doesnt claim Tibet as part of their territory? Why dont you read Taiwans constitution and tell me that again. The moment PRC collapses, ROC will be the first ones to reclaim mainland China and all of its previous claimed territories. And that includes Tibet.

@tenzinkalden9073 From what I understand, Tibet in 2020 is doing okay. If Im not mistaken, theyre currently not oppressed.

@tenzinkalden9073 "It would depend on your definition of oppression" Freedom to live their lives and do what they want as long as its within the laws? "Because of the police state China has created, it is nearly impossible to get an actual account of what ordinary Tibetans experience" I wouldnt consider Tibet a "police state". Xinjiang on the other hand would be. Also, from the various vlogs of visitors in Tibet of locals, it honestly looks fine. "But we do know that recently large percentages of monasteries were destroyed" I know that PRC destroyed a lot of religious sites in the past throughout the whole country, not just in Tibet. But recently? Im all for facts, do you have a source to that claim? "We do know the names of the hundreds of Tibetans that have self immolated themselves in recent years" I dont know about you, but to people around the world dont care about names of people that choose to suicide. So that comment is irrelevant. "Additionally, the appointment of a false Panchen Lama, after they kidnapped the rightful claimant, proves to many people outside of Tibet that there is religious oppression" That is not recent though? And all these are due to politics, not because of religion. They just happen to coincide. "and they are attempting to destroy the Tibetan identity" I disagree with that. If anything theyre trying to preserve all ethnic minority customs within their borders. What they want to destroy are the roots of separatist movements - which is a fair action for any country.

Mali Seng Ja Bum "Taiwan has its own currency, government and military. That means it is an independent country already. China should accept the reality and try to coexist peacefully." Taiwan? Taiwan doesnt have their "own" military/government/currency etc. You mean Republic of CHINA, the state that claims to be the country called CHINA, which Taiwan is a PART OF. And if you want to talk about reality, reality is that civil war between PRC and ROC hasnt officially ended yet, there was no peace treaty signed. Civil war meaning war within the SAME country.

@liftingweights "Also please STOP trying to come up with stupid pretexts to censor free speech" Says the one that insist that everyone against your OPINION is a communist. Moreover, your comment has nothing to do with mine. Why did you assume stating Taiwans constitution got anything to do with the communists again?

@TheNamgyal24 Instead of making personal attacks on me, how about you attack my points? "Taiwan" claims Tibet as part of their territory as per their constitution. Got anything to say about that?

@malisengjabum5959 "Xi Jinping is getting old and his dream of a forced unification with Taiwan will die along with him" Reunification is not a personal matter...its ingrained in BOTH ROC and PRCs constitution...Do you even know what youre talking about? And you havent addressed the fact that "Taiwan" still claims mainland territory and claims to be the country called China. "Right now the whole world hates China and invading Taiwan would be the end of China's rise and could even lead to the disintegration of current China" Opinions. "Current world affairs don't favor China. Trillions of money lost due to Wuhan Virus and Many countries are mad at China. More opinions. And countries that are infected by the virus only shows how incompetent those countries are. They can only blame their own country for not taking measures sooner and/or blame their own fellow citizens for not taking the virus seriously by social distancing and wearing masks. My country is containing the virus very well. "Taiwan will be another 'Syria'. Nobody wins" Errr lets speak facts here. Theres no oil in Taiwan. And if PRC wanted to take ROC by force, they could easily do so. But they prefer to reunify without war as stated many times. "Japan will be alarmed and will develop their own nuclear bombs and put them in their long range missiles" They cant. They signed a treaty. Seems like you dont know world affairs.

Shadow Ravenscraft "invading Taiwan is something that would be very costly to China" The gains would offset that though?

@Mostly-Sane " says Who?" What "says who"? That Taiwan claims Tibet as part of their territory? Says Taiwan. Duh. I already stated that. Can you read? "His Holiness Dalai Lama and the exiled Tibetians would start to go back to their homeland !!!" What are you talking about? When did I say that? You do realised that the Dalai Lama colluded with foreign forces and advocated an independence movement (which turned violent) in Tibet right? Thats illegal and by definition terrorism - the unlawful use of violence in pursuit of political aims. "Lol... did your Xi tell you that...maybe your Chinese paid media is tell you so" And whats this got to do with "my" Xi? You another ignorant fool that thinks Im Chinese?

@Theart0fstyle Really? Then why were they indiscriminately chased down and killed? Are you really comparing that to Tibetans in China? Because thats a poor point youre making. As far as I know, theyre NOT being INDISCRIMINATELY chased down and killed in China. Terrorist on the other hand a different story.
