Tibetan sources who spoke to Radio Free Asia linked the closures to the Chinese government’s education policies and its promotion of the Ethnic Unity and Progress Law, which took effect on July 1, 2026. They said the shutdowns could further limit opportunities for Tibetan children to learn their mother tongue and cultural traditions.

    Tibet can’t catch a break. They have suffered many natural disasters and CCP occupation is getting more and more invasive.

        ‘Have you seen what America looked like before the Europeans arrived? It was a shithole! If ‘Native American Culture’ amounts to sitting around doing nothing I think theyre legitimately better off under white Europeans’.

        This is what you sound like right now.

        That’s some mighty fine propaganda you bought into. It’s no wonder you are spreading it, it must have come at a great loss of your common sense.

        Love how you tankies shout about the imperial west while casually ignoring China’s own imperial nature.

        The CCP/PLA took Tibet for the exploitation of natural resources and strategic location. Liberation? Are you telling us murdering over 70 million people, from the 1920’s to the present, who disagreed with the CCP is liberating? Get lost. That’s why the good folks in Hong Kong SAR, Taiwan and the rest of 1st World Asia despise you.

        Let’s play a game:

        Tankie argument or LITERAL psychology textbook examples of narcistic abuse justification.

        IDK… It’s really hard. I struggle to tell the difference sometimes.

        I hope you know that in the stories online of family members defending or minimizing abuse or molestation from other family members, you would be the ones defending the rapist or the abuser.
