Big brain take: I trust China to setup overnight some separate independent socialist state but I don't trust China to actually govern the region like it has done for over 50 years now.
Please spend at least 2s thinking about the actual outcome here for the people involved in the struggle against imperialism.
2-China vows to support the socialist government at all costs.
3-Suddenly like nobody could ever see this coming a """"movement"""" starts crying for DEMOCRACY so now they ask big brother USA to help them because big bad China is literaly holding Tibet as a satellite state you know because the Tibetan people deserve DEMOCRACY or some shit.
Result: China gets balkanized but still has to support this territory for security and ideological reasons.
Sounds great to me we should ask the Tibetan people if they want independence right away...

I don't trust it to do either, it's a bourgeois state and it'd set up a bourgeois state in this thought experiment. But it'd still be less of an imperialism.

They don't have to do shit. They let Myanmar sink or swim, don't tell me they couldn't do the same for Tibet.
Conquering another country for "security reasons" is pure fucking imperialism, it's the same shitty reasoning used for the Japanese colonization of Korea and China. Not like it's even applicable here - it'd suicide to try an invade China through Tibet, the logistics are ridiculous.
