It's honestly kind of impressive how Radio Free Tibet-type sources saturate basic search results even though academically there is obvious consensus that over 90% of Tibetans in Tibet speak Tibetan and most of their primary schooling is also in Tibetan.

It's almost as if "the media" had an agenda.

I unironically place a lot of blame on U2 for this.

The whole "Live Aid" thing and "free Tibet" were huge propaganda drives in the 90s and early 00s and Bono and other mega-celebs were a huge part of it. The Beatles earlier too.
