The article naively suggests that the Communists freed the Tibetan people.
Because there was a feudal system didn't negate their right to run their own affairs.
The United Kingdom is a feudal system should it be invaded and a caretaker government be installed?
Communism is an evil system that has systematically stripped people of their basic humanity.
Let us never stop to demand that Tibet be free.

- macspoofing 6y agoMonarchy does not imply feudalism. Certainly not a Constitutional Monarchy.
- peter_retief 6y agoMy point is that Tibet deserved to develop its own system of government not effectively be colonized by China. Obviously the UK has a modern democratic system of government that developed through stages of feudalism and monarchy.
