On behalf of all decent and honest Chinese people I want to offer the Tibetan people our sincere apologies and I hope that one day they will receive at the very least the true autonomy and freedom that rightfully belongs to them. I'm also ashamed at how low some low-paid CCP agents on YouTube will steep to promote their lost cause. They are just starving dogs who enjoy eating their own vomit and bathe in their own excrement.
