Xinjiang and Tibet have been under Chinese governorship on and off since the Tang and Yuan dynastic periods. Tibet would have a greater claim to being an actual country, since when it still existed in the more modern epoch, when the concept of Nation-states were materialized out of the old epoch of feudalist kingdoms, as a slave-holding feudalist theocratic kingdom.
Both of these regions have broad, quite literally thousands of years of, histories that can't simply be reduced to strawmen so you can draw parallels to American history - and in extent British history as well as the other colonial powers that operated in the region at the time - so you can make a :reddit-logo: brained "Gotcha" here-abouts.
Xinjiang and Tibet are both countries that were conquered by the CPC.
Idk anything about the history of xinjiang but in the case of tibet: good. the people who live there are and were far better off in china than under the theocracy which came before
So when a colonized country becomes unable to govern for a 40 year period a territory that was part of their nation for 400 years due to the colonial intervention and destabilization of their state they should just accept it as a break away country.
That's the case with Tibet and it's "sovereignty" from China in the first half of the 20th century . And to be clear even then almost no country on earth recognized Tibet as a sovereign country and as NOT part of China. And that's not to mention Tibet being a horrible slave theorcracy
You are talking nonsense and implicitly support the balkanization of China by colonial intervention. Literally investigate the relevant history before pretending to have informed takes

Yeah, after the plane taking its leaders to Beijing mysteriously crashed, killing them all. The replacement leaders got the message loud and clear.
