China The British Aristocracy

“We conquered this land a long time ago, so we are allowed to keep it”

TFW the justification for invading Tibet is the same as that used for denying ramblers access to a bridlepath across the estate.

If we could trick Xi into wearing tweed just once, we could end the CCP overnight.

It’s funny, because “they were savages we needed to invade and civilise” was often the British (and every other) Empire’s justification too. https://twitter.com/prddc_tweets/status/1302456628378181632?s=21 https://twitter.com/PRDDC_Tweets/status/1302456628378181632

You know, I was going to mock this tweet, but it’s so far into self-parody that no jokes I make can top it.

Calling the invasion of Tibet a “popular indigenous revolution” is the “Iraqis welcoming US troops with flowers” of hot takes.

It’s strange, because the lad replying to this thread assured me that China ended slavery in Tibet, and yet here we go again. And... oh look, it’s being done because the CCP sees Tibetans as a lazy backward people and it’s being done for their own good? https://twitter.com/ipacglobal/status/1308278543000973312?s=21 https://twitter.com/ipacglobal/status/1308278543000973312
