There highschool kids haven't even graduated from school, yet they already think they know how to best govern Hong Kong? Their teenage minds haven't even matured and they haven't stepped out into the real working world of adults, yet they already gotten swept up by idealistic political fervor.

What "Fact Check" is this? Previously, while Tibet was under Dalai Lama rule, Tibet was a brutal theocracy, where 95% of the population were slaves and the remaining 5% elites were slave owners. Tibetan mountainous soil is infertile, rainfall is scarce in the Himalayas, so the slaves had to work hard to feed the Tibetan population. Starvation was commonplace and theft of food was punished by torture, amputation and even skinning. There's this Tibetan drum called damaru that's made from human skulls, a drumskin made of human skin and drumstick made of human bone. The Dalai Lama was overly worshipped and his followers fought for the right to consume his saliva, his urine and even his feces, because he was considered a divine vessel. After Tibet returned back to China, Chinese workers began rapidly modernising Tibet, building roads, railways, streetlamps, running water, gas and electricity as well as introducing modern amenities like cars, computers, telephone cables, smartphones, the Internet, WiFi, online shopping (from Taobao) and so on. Under CPC, the first Tibetan colleges opened in Lhasa, offering degrees in both Tibetan and Mandarin Chinese languages. Hydroelectric powerstations were built by Chinese to supply Tibetan homes with electricity.

Tibet can now import food from the mainland to feed its population, and Tibet's population has tripled from 1 million in 1950s to over 3 million people today. A thriving tourist industry has even sprung up in Tibet.

These students are all below the legal voting age in Hong Kong, what makes you think their political opinions matter?

@pewpew9711 Those high school kids who haven't even graduated yet aren't even of the legal voting age themselves, so why do their political opinions matter? They haven't even stepped out into the real working world of adults in Hong Kong, nor have they been exposed to real world politics, so why should the Hong Kong government bow down to the demands of these "underaged voters"?

Hong Kong was taken by British from China. During the 19th century, the British wanted to continue drinking Chinese tea, but China did not want anything the West had to offer, so Britain waged two bloody wars with China and forced Chinese to buy opium from them at gunpoint, which we didn't want because it made us sick and was poisoning our people. During this weak period of Chinese history, Hong Kong was taken from China and made into British colony, to act as a drug distribution hub to spread the addiction throughout rest of China. Even when Britain renounced ownership over its former territories, Hong Kong was not fully returned back to China, and China had to agree to Sino-British declaration just for Britain to handover what belongs to us.

Tibet was historically part of China since 800 years ago when the Mongols conquered Kingdom of Thibet and Song Dynasty China and incorporated those territory into Yuan Dynasty China. The Manchu conquerors of China did a similar thing with Tibet centuries later during Qing Dynasty China. Just look up maps of Yuan Dynasty China and Qing Dynasty China and Tibet was clearly part of Chinese history.

It is apparent that sanctions simply do not work on North Korea, so why continue imposing sanctions if it doesn't work? North Korea is mostly targeting US military bases in South Korea, Okinawa Japan and also Guam, so what is Chinese government to do about this? If America choose withdrawing all/some of its troops from those bases, it would do much more to ease tensions along Korean peninsula than any sanctions China could impose. If imposing sanctions clearly do not work, then why not try a different approach instead? It's insane keep on repeating same method again and again, and somehow expect the result to be any different this time.

@arcarcon4620 Hong Kongers elect their own government separate from the mainland. Hong Kong Chief Executive Carrie Lam was elected into power after winning the three way 2017 Hong Kong election, garnering 777 votes out of the 1,194-member Election Committee (which consist of Hong Kong groups) and Beijing does not cast any votes in Hong Kong elections. So how is Hong Kong government a puppet of the Communist Party of China?

@demonboy3779 Where's your evidence that Chinese government hired those triads? The government wants to to draw as little attention as possible to Hong Kong (The government says Hong Kong is not up for discussion in summit meetings) so why would the government stir up more trouble in Hong Kong that would draw more attention to it?
1
@demonboy3779 That's just a single pro Beijing person's opinion, how is that evidence that the Communist Party of China is behind the Yuen Long attacks? The CCP doesn't want to draw attention to Hong Kong, so why would they stir up more trouble in Hong Kong you tell me?

@arcarcon4620 China has been under communist party rule, and mainland China is world's 2nd largest economy today, and still growing, whereas Hong Kong's economy is ranked 34th in the world and is currently in a slump today. What happened to Hong Kong's previous prosperity under British colonial rule?

The Hong Kong Police arrested the HK rioters, who turned out to be high school kids from Hong Kong (like those featured here) so how are they from the mainland?

@BD-lq4id The Tibetans themselves signed the Seventeen Point Agreement for the Peaceful Liberation of Tibet (中央人民政府和西藏地方政府关于和平解放西藏办法的协议) in 1951, thus affirming Chinese sovereignty over Tibet. Source: Seventeen Point Agreement wikipedia.org/wiki/Seventeen_Point_Agreement So there's this legally binding agreement signed by the Tibetans themselves acknowledging Chinese sovereignty over Tibet.

@ID-8491 The 14th Dalai Lama is a CIA agent and a sellout to the Americans. The 14th Dalai Lama received funding from CIA to train Tibetan guerrillas in separatist activities against the Central People's Government (Beijing). We know this because declassified CIA files have exposed that a total of 1,735,000 dollars was devoted to the Tibetan program for FY1964 -Tibetan resistance efforts in Nepal (US$500,000) -Tibet Houses in New York and Geneva (1/2 year) (US$75,000) -Training (US$855,000) -Subsidy to the Dalai Lama (US$180,000) -Miscellaneous costs (US$125,000) So here we have concrete evidence that the 14th Dalai Lama received funding from the USA to engage in separatist activities against the Central People's Government.
