It's the Han man's burden to teach these savages slavery is wrong.

Pretty sure the slaves already knew that slavery was wrong, they just couldn't do much about it because of the power the Lamas had built up from, you know, exploiting slaves.

Fortunately, when the Chinese overthrew their oppressors, they did not decide to arbitrarily exclude a region of China that had been briefly taken over by a theocracy, because why would they?

If slavery in Tibet is over, the country can be granted independence, no?

Ah yes, the world famous Tennesseeanianer Freedom Movement.

Maybe Texas would be a better example? There's definitely Texans who support independence. And Texas has only been part of the US for 180 years, while Tibet has been part of China for at least 300.

Although I certainly heard a fair share of "The South will rise again" and saw a lot of Confederate flags when I lived in Tennessee. Just their version of "Free Tibet," I suppose.
