Its incredibly sad how Tibet was just completely forgotten in just a few years. Its legit scary how effective China is at conquest and the world should pay attention.
Wasnt Tibetan society like 90% slaves working for the monastic rulers?
Yes.
Get out of those temples kids. It is time to consoooom
China working to prevent indoctrination of children with superstitious religious practices that are harmful to the people practicing them.
Edit:
Funny how everybody is downvoting based on knee jerk reactions, while nobody acknowledge the harmful practices.
Always this special pleading for religious practices, that we would never accept in any other context.More like China acting like a colonizer to kill the culture.
Superstition and kidnapping of children is not “culture”.
So that’s how they’re euphemizing ethnic genocide these days, huh?
Wonder what China is doing to prevent indoctrination of children with radical partisan CCP loyalism.
Religious superstition is not culture worth preserving.
China’s artificial “culture” which was installed after slaughtering their own history, isn’t worth preserving.
Finally someone that acknowledge that a harmful culture is not necessarily always worth preserving.👍
I sure hope China will become more politically democratic, but we must also acknowledge that China has made huge progress in improving conditions for their population these past 50 years. But I think the time for Communism has passed, or whatever it is they have in China.
On the other hand I don’t see the 1 party system as that much worse than a 2 party system. To make a real difference, it needs to be a functional democracy.
But the 1 single advantage China has over most democracies, is to NOT accept religious special pleading.Professing to the belief that slaughtering massive numbers of infant girls is an improvement of conditions, is a bit of a spicy take on these forums.
You can’t do something that fucked up and just expect the entire world to pretend it never happened.
Now you are being stupid: What slaughtering is that?
The systematic control and surveillance of Tibetan monasteries by Chinese authorities represents one of the most calculated assaults on religious freedom in the modern world.
This is what it is about, and religious special pleading needs to fucking end. Especially when it’s harmful to children. You can abandon a religion, it’s not like for instance protection of nationality, gender or sex.
I’m talking about the Chinese people choosing to murder their own daughters at birth because the government attempted to implement strict population controls, and everyone wanted boys so they could make more money as adults.
Wtf do you know about those practices?!
For instance that children are send there against their will.
Last time I checked, many children were sent to schools against their wills.
To live there the rest of their lives in celibacy?
That’s a false equivalence.
Adults choose to live there by their own will, no one is forcing them to.
The only party force people against their will is CCP forcing young and adult monks leave temples, and force children to live in Han-speaking schools full time without their parents.
Adults that have been brainwashed since childhood do not decide for themselves. They do what they are conditioned to do, just like you are doing right now.
Yes the CCP does that too, I never said I like the CCP, but on religion they are mostly right. Just because it’s a bad system, it doesn’t mean they are always wrong. There are probably also good religious people.
