Well, the did CCP dismantle the Tibetan theocratic state. A state that practiced serfdom and slavery. Possibly not out of the kindness of their hearts, but results do matter.

And replaced it first with a authoritarian state that strived to be communist (i.e. collectivization, banning private businesses, etc.) but is now simply authoritarian. Optimal? Of course not. Are Tibetans discriminated against in their own lands? It seems so. Is the typical people worse off than before? Only if you have a rather odd world view and definition of "worse off".
