I wonder what brand of fucking big television the dalai lama has. 🤔

It took me 10 seconds to realize this was a joke, and another 10 to get the joke.

I don't like this timeline

It took me no seconds to get the joke, but 10 seconds to realize that it was a joke for real.

Have people forgot already the "suck my tongue" pedo shit this guy pulled out?

[–] [email protected] 12 points 4 days ago (1 children)

No, I definitely remember when the mainstream media jumped at the chance to smear one of the most peaceful spiritual figures alive, context be damned. They took a culturally unfamiliar moment and ran it through a Western lens to manufacture outrage. And look, they're still collecting dividends on it!

He asked a child to suck his tongue, there's no context the guy is a pedo

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 days ago

Yeah. Just like theatre guys tell others to "break a leg". There's no context. Every one of them is a psychopath for wishing harm.

Wtf do you think context is?

That does sound like something the Dalai Lama would say.

It is a cultural difference slightly taken out of context. Albeit it is incredibly jarring for Americans and other European countries. He did issue an apology for it.

Go on ...

This is a perfectly normal thing in Tibetan culture?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 days ago

Sort of. According to residents who defended him they said it is a normal joke that elderly people to do children in Tibet.

By the way why the pope even accepted (he or someone of his entourage) to meet with JD Vance?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 days ago

Dalai is finding himself some Necrotic damage resist gear first.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 days ago

He doesn't want to die yet.
