A decade ago , the west started China bashing campaign over Tibet, Tibet related reports and dubious stories suddenly emerged and rampaged all over the media 24/7, white Tibet "sympathizers" took the streets in all western countries and cities to protest against " crime against humanity" China was supposed to commit in Tibet.
What the west never talks about is the serfdom society of Tibet under Dalai Lama's rule was the true hell on earth, where serfs, over 90% of Tibetan population, were not even regarded as humans, slave owning Tibetan aristocrats can sell and buy the serfs like trading cattles, Dalai Lama himself was the biggest slave owner of the time.
Today's Tibet is a fairly developed , prosperous , peaceful region with almost zero crimes, people fully enjoy their lives and pursue their goals in life, every youngster is well educated. Dalai Lama had long lost his appeal in Tibet, who in their right minds like to revert to savage Dalai Lama's serfdom society anyway.
