Tibetan protester burns himself in India

The Tibet situation is sad. I doubt it will change, though. I do feel a lot of resentment about it. How fucking hard is it to take a country full of non-violent monks? Fucking pitiful.

Incredibly backwards? yes, buried in mideveal religious oppression? yes. Monks rule the land and serfs were cattle? Yes. Non violent, no.

Have a look at how harmonious and spiritually fulfilling the dalai lama and buddhism will get when allowed an untrammeled theocracy

And this gives the Chinese the right to rule over other nations?
Meaning that this gives you the right to rule over other nations that you perceive as backwards?
Really, I sometimes have a hard time believing that you people are leftists.
I'm not a *leftist* but I still oppose the Chinese rule and years of oppression that the Tibetans had to suffer, it certainly didn't change the supposed outcome.
Not that I agree with a theocracy in Tibet, but for a nationalistic government that works on the behalf of the people, rather than for Chinese interests in the region.
