A new report by Human Rights Watch argues that the compulsory use of Chinese as the primary language in schools in Tibet raises “serious concerns under international human rights law”.

Am I in r/sino?
Eradicating one culture deemed medieval and feudalistic and replacing it with a ethnosupremacist form of feudalist capitalism disguised in a pseudo-Maoist wrapper… Standard fare in the Pooh World where what the Hans are doing is “liberation”. Not only that, the Tibetan plateau is like a smorgasbord for Mainlander corporations looking for rare-earth resources, so there comes the program of forced assimilation which is no more different from banishing all Palestinians from their lands.
(BTW, Israel sold to China some several key technologies, including early-warning radar.)
What I don’t get about the CCP shills is why they think I would trust the Chinese government when I don’t even trust my own government.
because they think you are as dumb as they are.
Something to consider is that most of the propaganda that makes it past the Great Firewall is likely to attempt to paint a positive view of China given that the CCP has so much control over it.

Ghaza and Lebanon woukd like to have a work with the HRW.
Resistance since the uprising of 1959 has persisted under the current Dalai Lama, a “potent force despite decades of propaganda, political crackdowns and education drives aimed at undermining his authority”, living in exile in India.
What authority are they talking about? Are they arguing that education should not be offered and that instead theocratic leadership is what is most important when considering human rights? I think rather the real propaganda comes from the west in favour of a feudal theocracy.
I wouldn’t believe shit coming from human rights watch, people are being made stateless where I’m from and I haven’t heard a peep out of them. Current estimates look around 300k or so.
HRW only cares for human rights violations in certain countries. Fuck this imperialistic apparatus.
propaganda
This is the case across all of China, as Mandarin is the language of the state and citizens need it to get good jobs and talk amongst each other. We need to stop pretending Tibet is being oppressed. The Dalai Lama was in the Epstein files.

Those thing are not mutually exclusive
He’s the official leader of Tibet in the west. He represents the Tibetan political movement. If you understood Tibet as the Lama sees it, you’d understand what’s being advocated for is a theocracy that practiced slavery. “Free Tibet” is Lost Cause revisionism.
Before modern Chinese administration, monasteries and the DL held great power, owned vast swaths of land and held legal authority, similar to the Catholic Church in the Middle Ages. Since China incorporated Tibet there’s been secular law and modern infrastructure built in Tibet.
The Chinese government wants all areas it governs to have industries which give people work to build a better quality of life. Part of that is having the communication skills to interact with the job market in China. Mandarin in schools is basic education for future citizens to find work. And outside of anti-government, pro-monastery propaganda, Tibetans are allowed to say, write, and read anything they want in their native language.
They even have tibetan on their banknotes iirc as well. I’ve never seen minority languages on the British bank notes. The best thing that I have seen is a Ceilidh on the £20 Ulster Bank note.
There is a difference between government and culture. The Chinese are also trying to terminate the Tibetan language and the cultural customs of common people.

no they arent
I “wonder” whom they got cultural-genocide-methods from…

( Hopi men in Alcatraz prison, because they wouldn’t sign their agreement with their children being taken from them, at gunpoint, to be enforced into the residential-“school” institutions ).
Back in the Nuremberg trials, we had the absolute-gall to maintain that MoralLaw, aka NaturalLaw, aka RuleOfJustLaw, “outranks” RuleOfLegalism.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_law
Where, in our genociding of Indigenous Peoples & their culture, both before & after, did we demonstrate that principle??
Oh, we “have the right to be 2-faced” … ??
Anybody who’s tried reading Wehle’s book “How to Think like a Lawyer, and Why”, knows that legalism is the whole of the law, & RuleOfJustLaw/MoralLaw/NaturalLaw … hasn’t got any power to outrank precident.
https://www.kobo.com/us/en/ebook/how-to-think-like-a-lawyer-and-why
( the SCOTUS gutting of the US’s Voting Rights Act stands on legalism, e.g. )
Yes, it is true that I already-know that CCP gaslights about holding to international-law.
My point is that our world holds to “rule of law”, NOT to Rule of Law, & that our pretending otherwise is itself gaslighting.
Yes, Jim Crow 2.0 is being enforced in the US, now.
Yes, ICE is embodying the SAME “principles” in the US that the IDF is embodying in Gaza
( this short, and difficult-to-watch, video explains that … while showing us the murders of ICE, & their other IDF-clone behaviors, … while showing us the IDF’s original-renditions. Please have the guts to see it with your own eyes: it changes one to see & understand, accurately… https://youtu.be/qhZBVLQK9MU )
& yes, this supremacism/genociding principle is enacting in Europe ( ask the Ukranians’ stolen children about it ), in Asia ( see the article linked in the OP ), in the Middle-East ( Netanyahu’s “Israel” … I discovered yesterday that the real LivingSpirit-loyal Jews are calling Netanyahu “Amalek”, which is the embodyer-of-anti-Judaism/“Jewish”-evil ) & in the Americas.
This is part of a global paradigm, not something local to 1 of the 4 world-pushing “poles” of Earth!
It’s the principle/paradigm that needs opposing, not letting the framing be made “only-local”, because so long as we remain blindfolded against the globalness-of-the-paradigm, then we remain as ineffective as they want us to be!

I’m not trying to score points against you here when I say your comment is incoherent. I cannot parse a lot of what you have written. Maybe if you stuck to simpler sentence structure, your message would come across.
