Misguided
I can follow the logic of your argument, but it betrays a deep ignorance of Buddhist teachings. Another leader might have achieved a different outcome for Tibet by now. Even if that were certain, it's not a reason to dismiss an entire philosophy, one that's endured centuries of scrutiny, one meshes better with modern science than any western belief system I can think of, as "horseshit."
May you know happiness and understand the roots of happiness. I believe you can.
