> How can we really be sure about more or less persecution by Chinese government if we don't live in Tibet
You're conflating your lack of knowledge about the subject with a general lack of knowledge about the subject; those are not the same.
> You're right, the media are mostly or exclusively mouthpieces for the state. FTFY. There are not exceptions anywhere in the world.
That's a false equivalence; yes, most or all countries' governments have captured the press to some extent, but the degree to which it happens varies wildly by country, and again the fact that you don't see that speaks more to your own experiences than any objective reality.
Is feudal society with slavery and human sacrifices better? How can we really be sure about more or less persecution by Chinese government if we don't live in Tibet, do not know Tibetan and Chinese, and all we know about those "persecutions" are somebody else's translated words?
