My bad, the part about Tibet's independence was there in response to another comment, I forgot to delete it.

And about everything being guarded, I wouldn't care a rat's ass about what rich people are allowed to do while travelling, I'm actually more concerned about what freedoms the locals lack.

I'm already aware of what happened in Tibet and the horrors that happened there, and I'm already a communist, and I don't want nor mean to defend any capitalist ideal, but I don't think the situation in Tibet is going well for the local population (to my knowledge, I welcome any new information about the current situation, I think my information is at least 5 years old)

Good, you're not one of those tourists lol.

As for anything else, this does come down to whether or not we believe any Chinese sources as any outside mainstream media will definitely say otherwise. All we can do is list a few that are there:

As of mid-2021, the ethnic majority 藏族 is still 86% of the population, and just like other citizens in other provinces, are allowed to elect their local officials.

For religion, while the majority are Buddhist, there are some Christians and followers of the Islamic faith as well. As of mid-2020, 1700 Buddhist temples, 4 Mosques and 1 Church.

Outside of this, they have one of the highest pensions in the country and life expectancy has doubled since 1951 to 72.19 years.
