Texas was not violently occupied, annexed and oppressed by the USA. Totally different case.
Mexico and the Native Indians might feel differently about that. As for Tibet, it has belonged to China for several hundred years - long before the communists reasserted control over the area.

“As for Tibet, it has belonged to China for several hundred years”

That’s a lie....pure and simple. Tibet was an independent country for most of its existence. It did not become a “part of China” till 1958 when Mao’s goons invaded and annexed the country forcibly.

I can’t believe how many FReepers are willing to believe ChiCom propaganda.

Expanded troll alert...this thread is really attracting some attention from the ChiComs and their lackeys.

It looks like the ChiCom trolls have also banded together to sow disinofrmation on this forum.

re: Texas. Texas wanted to be no part of Mexico, not even the native Tejanos in Texas wanted to be a part of Mexico. It was an independent country that voted for annexation 10 years after independence. Texas wasn’t violently annexed.

Re: Tibet was a part of China for hundreds of years, but the Tibetians are ethnically and culturally distinct from the Chinese. They had a right to declare independence, which they did in the 1910’s, and they had their independence robbed from them by Mao.
