The matter of Tibet is complex, and I think "definitively" is handwaving away a lot of Tibetan history.

- obscurette 3y agoIn 1991, when Soviet Union collapsed and some parts of it had finally a lucky chance to go their own way, there was a lot of western "experts" who lectured new countries how complex their past was, how Soviet past should be also respected and shouldn't be handwaved away etc. It actually continued decades until very recently – Bucha happened.
