      Do you prefer the old fuedal regime which often treated serfs as slaves to the current autonomous region that a China helped to liberate after a local uprising by Tibetans?

        Oh, they invaded and annexed a country because they were backwards and needed civilizing, thank you for the clarification. “Better off under us than before” is probably the #1 imperialism cope bud

          The people there didn’t “need civilizing” the government needed overthrowing, and Tibetans literally started the process and asked for Chinese assistance.

          Next you’ll tell me saying that the Confederacy being destroyed and integrated back into the union at the end of the Civil War was “imperialist”

          I’m begging you to actually understand what imperialism is. Imperialism is not integrating another country by itself, it involves specific financially extractive structures which are absent in the relationship you describe.
