Why did the Tibet genocide happen?
There is no such thing as a "Tibetan genocide". There was no period in time when the Tibetan population was deliberately targeted for execution or was prevented by any government from reproducing. What is referred to by extreme Pro-Tibetan commentators as the "Tibetan genocide" is the deliberate sublimation of the Tibetan culture to Han culture in China. While this is certainly a very serious crime, it is not a genocide.
As for why China is overrunning the culture of Tibet to the point of effectively preventing the Tibetan assertion of a unique cultural identity, this is because the Chinese government wants to assimilate the Tibetan people and crush their desire for political independence. It is neither acceptable or justifiable; the Tibetans, like the Uiyghur have historically operated outside of Han influence and deserve the right to independent self-rule and a unique cultural identity.
