A couple of days ago, I was reading a status update from my Chinese friend (who is quite intelligent) about Chinese students protesting Dalai Lama's graduation speech at UC San Diego [1] under the name of inclusion and diversity. For anyone who isn't familiar with the affairs, Dalai Lama is exiled from Tibet which is considered part of China in many Chinese people's point of view.
One of his arguments was that people have blocked anti-LGBT rights and anti-BLM people because it hurts the feelings of the students in respective groups. Then, why is it not reasonable to block the Dalai Lama because it hurts the feelings of many Chinese students on campus?
After reading that, I sighed really loudly and went on with my day.
