I can't say I have an encyclopedic knowledge of Tibetan Buddhist sex scandals. But yeah, it's a politically influential, hierarchical religious institution. Of course it's crawling with sex pest shit. This is surprising to absolutely no one on earth.
I'm not talking about other sex pests, but about the Dalai Lama. You questioned if he has a pattern of behavior and put that shit down to his age, and I pointed out that there's been plenty of controversies and inappropriate behavior from him going years back. Hence my surprise that some people are so eager to give him the benefit of the doubt, because I thought this was pretty well known.
