  1. CW: CW: Imperialism, authoritarianism, repression

    The United States is not the yardstick by which I measure whether a superpower is acceptable.

    "Better than the US" is a very low bar. And China doesn't even clear it.

    An empire is still an empire, even when it wraps itself in different colours.

    Ask Tibet about "liberation." Ask the Uyghurs about "stability." Ask Hong Kong about "one country, two systems." Ask Taiwan why it has to live under constant military threats for the crime of existing.

    I refuse this childish game where we are expected to pick our favourite empire. I don't collect great powers like football teams. I reject Empires.

    Washington can be wrong. Beijing can be wrong. Moscow can be wrong. More than one government can be authoritarian, imperialist, and dangerous at the same time.

    My loyalty is not to flags. It is to ordinary people who just want to live in peace, speak their own language, love whom they love, and decide their own future without someone else's tanks, missiles, or secret police.

    No kings. No emperors. No dictators. No exceptions.

    Freitag setzte sich der Tibeter und Aktivist Lobga Rangzen in Brand vor dem HQ der UN in New York als Protest gegen Chinas neues Gesetz zur "ethnischen Einheit". Er rief dazu auf nie die Herkunft und Identität von Tibeter*innen zu vergessen und forderte die Unabhängigkeit Tibets.

  8. 🔊 I recommend this podcast marking the 30th anniversary of the Tibetan Freedom Concerts. There are some great stories about the Free Tibet movement and the role of Adam Yauch (MCA) from the Beastie Boys

  14. On Wednesday last week, I was honoured to meet the Dalai Lama, along with my study trip buddies Janet Rice, Brittney H., Siobhan Isherwood, Michael, Sarah Redshaw, and Zoe from the Australia Tibet Council.

    In Delhi and Dharamsala, I had already spent almost a week learning about non-violent action, truth telling, preservation of culture, collective decision making, and giving up attachment in service of community. I was trying to understand a theory of change that might lead to a more peaceful world.

    The Dalai Lama says that "peace starts within each one of us, then we can be in peace with those around us. When our community is in peace, it can share that peace with neighbouring communities and so on. It is important that we each make a sincere effort to take seriously our responsibility for each other and the world in which we live."

    This was part of a self-funded study trip organised by Australia Tibet Council.

  16. Last week, I went on a self-funded study trip with Australia Tibet Council to learn about Tibet’s ongoing non-violent efforts to end China’s illegal occupation of Tibet. I travelled with Janet Rice, Siobhan Isherwood, Michael Osborne, Sarah Redshaw, Brittney Henderson, and Zoe Bedford.

    It was a life-changing journey, and for the rest of this week I’ll be sharing my adventures day by day, and talking about what I learned and the amazing people I met.

  20. After occupying Tibet for more than 70 years, the Chinese party-state has utterly failed to win the support of the Tibetan people

    "Tibetans have clung on to their identity for 75 years now, fighting for it and dying for it."

  23. Tibet, not Xizang

    Right now, Free Tibet is working hard on this campaign to determine the best path forward in challenging China’s global influence and informing institutions about the history and importance of Tibet.

    Das glaube ich nicht.
    Der Dalai Lama wird einen Weg finden.
    China versucht mit allen Mitteln, die tibetische Kultur in China verschwinden zu lassen. Nicht einmal mehr der Name Tibet soll erlaubt sein.
    Wer in Tibet soll denn dem chinesischen Tibetsurrogat huldigen? Chinesen?

    Tibet ist jetzt in Indien und in der freien Welt. In den Herzen der Menschen.

    China ist nicht in der Lage, über spirituelle Gesetze zu bestimmen. Es versteht sie ja nicht einmal im Ansatz.

    Der Dalai Lama wird einen Weg finden, dass er wieder gefunden wird, wenn er in der freien Welt wiedergeboren werden will.
    Die Tibeter:innen haben erstaunliche Fähigkeiten auf dem Gebiet der Spiritualität.
    Die Chinesen... nicht.
