The Dalai Lama is a racist.
Who knew?
The Left must be having an old-fashioned conniption fit.
I just today read the tiny book Anger (2019) by the Dalai Lama and read another Be Happy (2018). I never read anything by him before. And won’t again.
Doing fine until page 105: he said “I am not only a socialist but a bit leftist—a Communist In terms of social economy theory I am a Marxist.” .Farther left than the Chinese.... “They are capitalists”.
How stupid. His helpless people were overrun by Chinese soldiers who brutally raped all women and girls and tortured and usually killed the Tibetans who resisted. The Dalai Lama is in exile in India due to the Chinese. What’s wrong with him?
I spent about 30 years avoiding Buddhist stuff because I am against nonviolence. Can’t stand it. See Friendly Persuasion with Gary Cooper for starters. The nonviolent exist only at the mercy of guns and people who hold them.
Out in the garbage with that stuff. No commies allowed.
Since it will be just about impossible to deploy the usual tactic (scream “racist”, “nazi”, “hitler”) the Left will just try to ignore this and hope nobody notices.
