A new report by Human Rights Watch argues that the compulsory use of Chinese as the primary language in schools in Tibet raises “serious concerns under international human rights law”.

    You’re someone who literally doesn’t know what lingua franca is.

    This is what you little cucks cry about all the time America has done to indigenous folk. But when China does it, it’s a lingua franca.

    Fucking idiot

      Reducing the reservations and residential schools to speaking English is minimising the genocide commited against Native Americans: might I suggest that you’re projecting when you throw around phrases like “doesn’t know” and “fucking idiot”?

        Might I suggest you learn some fuckin manners when being educated?

        Kill the Indian, save the man. Is a form of genocide and is often cited as an example of quiet genocides that are meant to erase culture.

        Within 70 years Tibet decided to abandon their cultural language?

        That’s erasure you fucking idiot.

          This is what I mean about projecting, your lack of manners have gotten you banned, while mine have been beyond reproach.

          You’re just an overdramatic American Exceptionalist that doesn’t want to confront your personal complicity in multiple genocides, so you point at a small cultural shift elsewhere in the world and pretend it’s the same thing. You try to hide your racism in progressive language but you really suck at it and your claims fall apart under the slightest scrutiny, so you have to attack the person, but you don’t know what their failings are so you screech out the ones you know; your own.

          As with the genocide of native Americans, you’re now minimising the Indian genocides - there was far, far more to it than simply speaking English, and it’s gross that you would draw an equivalence between the 100’s of millions of dead Indians and speaking Chinese.
