As OP notes, the 'Free Tibet' cause was very popular in the 90s when the US was not seen as being in a great-power conflict with China. So I don't think your 2nd sentence is correct. Your 1st sentence is just classic whataboutism
- debit-freak 2y ago> Your 1st sentence is just classic whataboutism It would be if I were arguing against sovereignty for tibetans; I am not. I merely ask that people don't treat the movement as any more or less urgent, necessary, or obvious than any other sovereignty movement. Granted, it was facetious to insert this viewpoint into the conversation about tibet; but arguably it was just as facetious to insert an argument for sovereignty into a conversation about Tibetan script.
