    Wow, what an experience to be within a bardo state while walking around Kailash! Oh, I'd love to be jealous but I know better and do my best not to take that luxury any longer as I did many years ago! Reminds me of my NDE but that was within a hospital and very short.

      Over 6,000 monasteries were destroyed Thousands of Tibetans are still languishing in prison Over 1.2 million Tibetans were killed Tibet's natural resources and fragile ecology are being irreversibly exploited There is evidence that Tibet is used to store nuclear waste 6 million Tibetans are already surpassed by an estimated 7.5 million Chinese in Tibet Tibet was turned into a huge military base..... ...etc..... .... all fake news? ... that is the reality that they naturally do not want to admit.

    communists are mentally sick people and Chinese have been indoctrinated to believe what their government tell them, which is 100% bullshit. And that makes the opinions of Chinese people 100% bullshit. Sorry to say it but thank god there are a few who do not believe their government and still believe in the soul and kindness and decency, and feel ashamed about the destruction of Tibet by China for greed and business reasons. Sometimes the most ignorant people think they are the smartest and best and that is the way most Chinese think that i have met. I lived with Chinese for 20 years unfortunately for me, so I know how arrogant,vain and ignorant most of them are. But they believe they are the best, heroes of the world. How wrong they are. God bless the Tibetan people. Long live the Dalai Lama. Free Tibet!!!

    Lol...Stupid sensationist documentarian says Chinese are completely exploiting the Tibetans. All of them are not being rushed off to labor camps to die. It looks like normal Tibetan lives before and after the Chinese arrived. Those nuclear power plants fuel electricity in the region ESPECIALLY IN THE FUCKING NIGHT that was non-existent before. She also mentioned that sanitation was MUCH BETTER in some areas than before. Chinese military bases are to maintain control in the area to prevent India from invading over the Himalayan mountains. The Himalayan mountains are a natural barrier that protects China in the west. That is why China took over Tibet. They don't want to quickly replace Tibetan culture with theirs, not like European and American Imperialism. Prostitutes...WELL WHAT DO YOU KNOW? Whenever the US or any other country has a military base, there WILL ALWAYS BE RAPE AND PROSTITUTION just like the US in Okinawa and Vietnam. Does this Sylvia Faddis make a documentary about Okinawans being unhappy with American military on the island? NO!!! She is an example of double standards and hypocrisy. Sylvia Faddis is driving "THE FREE TIBET POLITICAL AGENDA" even if she is not directly saying it. She just attempted to paint the Chinese as the new Nazis. All I see is Chinese and Tibetans struggling to co-exist in pre-existing rural conditions. Tibetan culture is still intact. It is not destroyed like the Jewish culture under Hitler or by Communism under Mao that everyone claimed it was. Chinese don't see Buddhist Tibetans, except for the Dalai Lama, as a threat compared to Uighur Muslims who are more aggressive about Independence and spreading Islam.
