I think when China defeated the theocratic rules, it was an improvement for Tibetan people. But a government's legitimacy is constantly re-evaluated by the governed, and it's the ruling party's job to earn the support necessary for maintaining a stable society. Using force to ensure conformity can work for the short-term, but history shows even the strongest dictators will fall eventually, if they lose the support of the people.
