#TwitterWill and a call for action

Given what has been happening to pro-Ethiopian and pro-Eritrean voices on @Twitter, I have decided to write my #TwitterWill while I am still around.
1/ Compared with how things were on twitter a year back, we are at a much better place. We are scrutinizing every sentence of every article and tweet and every from of every video. The whole twitter is full of Ethiopian and Eritrean eyes and people are feeling the heat!
2/ The #NoMore movement that started out as a hash tag has evolved into a movement, nay an African REVOLUTION! It has become too real for the powers to be! The oppressed are waking up and the oppressors are panicking and scheming.
I am afraid @Twitter is coming for many of us. They might even make Twitter unavailable in the HOA. It is time to take this peaceful movement to the real world!
3/ Ethiopians and friends of Ethiopia, it is time to do #Ethiopia a favor! During this holiday season please reach out to 4 non-HOA people you know and introduce our cause. Since the MSM & SM platforms are muzzling our voices, we need to go out and get the information to people!
Reach out to your neighbors. If you feel embarrassed, think of the hundreds of TPLF supporters ground hugging in support of their cause.
Reach out to your coworkers. If you feel this is unprofessional, think of Tedros Adhanom. The guy is mobilizing all the power and connection of a UN organization all over the world in order to support TPLF.
Stop people on the street and share fliers and links to websites. If you feel this is too much, think of your children growing up without identity.
Donate to funds supporting IDPs and other #Ethiopian causes. If you feel like it is too much, think of the people who left the comfort of their home and are dying in the battlefield!
If you are in #Ethiopia, it is time to be vigilant! It is time to be kind! It is time to share! It is time to stand tall!
If you have friends and colleagues abroad, reach out to them, call them, email them, have a Zoom meeting with them. Let them know the truth!
4/ The intention of Ethiopia’s foes is crystal clear! The plan is to make Ethiopians, citizens of a country ‘formerly known as Ethiopia.’ Their plan is to make this holiday season the last one we will be celebrating with a country to call home.
The time to say #NoMore & #DoMore is now! Now is all the time we have!

This is my call for action! This is my #TwitterWill.

Whats yours?

#DearElon

1/ The voice of 150+ million people in East Africa is being actively censored by @Twitter. Over the past yr prominent voices have been deplatformed & many others shadow banned. Twitter even went to the extent of banning the trending section for the region!
2/ The global digital town square you envision @Twitter has been a distant dream for us. Twitter has been actively discouraging plurality of thought in the region by suppressing one narrative while promoting another, aligned with interests of certain powerful countries.
3/ Suppression forces ideas underground; makes them more violent by taking away the moderating effect of moderate voices. It fans the flames disinformation. It makes people more paranoid and less tolerant of opposing view points.

#FatefulTriangle

1/ Militarily, TPLF looks finished; at least as a conventional fighting force. At least for the time being. Its ranks decimated, its fighters demoralized and its popular support at an all time low.
2/ In reality, #TPLF has nothing in its hands to bargain with, other than the threat of future insurgency. At this point in time, the only bargaining chip it has is the support of the USG.
3/ The US is in the talks not only to 'observe' but also 'particiapte', as per @StateDeptSpox Ned Price.

#GaslightingTheJungle

1/ Borrell's Garden perpetrated unspeakable atrocities on Africans & other indigenous populations: genocide, slavery, colonialism, nuclear bombs, agent orange! And now they want the world to accept them as paragons of decency!

Shameless.
2/ The Garden People took a Congolese Pygmy by the name Ota Benga and kept him in a Bronx Zoo Monkey House. He committed suicide in 1916.
3/ In 1958, as part of Expo 58, Belgium put 598 people – including 273 men, 128 women and 197 children, a total of 183 families – brought over from Africa on display. The spectators "threw money or bananas over the closure of bamboo,” one journalist wrote at the time.

.@LaurenBinDC's comical defence of the #IHRCEE named by @UN_HRC

1/ Mrs. Blanchard tries to defend the #IHRCEE report by saying 'it is not inconsistent' with the JIT report. This is provably false.
2/ Unlike the more comprehensive report of the JIT, the #IHRCEE depended on remote interviews, focused only on three incidents and two thematic areas and completely ignored Afar! And yet managed to arrive at more sweeping conclusions. This is as substandard as you could get!
2/ @LaurenBinDC's defense of @kaari_murungi is that she was not a member of the commission at the time she posted those clearly biased tweets calling for R2P against #Ethiopia.

#ThreadFix

#TheMurungiFiasco

1/ The tweets of @kaari_murungi
did not want to the world to see have been recovered [courtesy of
@EthioCyberia]!

It is extremely striking how Murungi's tweets were predictive of the #IHRCEE's most recent statements
2/ Here is Mrs. Murungi calling for R2P in April 2021 long before her appointment to the Commission. Put her tweet side by side with the #IHRCEE statement from Sept 7 urging the UNSC to "take action" and how much her bias affected the Commission becomes glaringly obvious.
3/ Her tweets make it abundantly clear that Murungi has concluded that Crimes Against Humanity have been committed way before Sept 2022. No need for due diligence, no need for witnesses; apparently
@kaari_murungi can make such weighty determinations from the comfort of her couch

#TedrosTheHypocrite

1/ @DrTedros, recently accused the 'IC' of being racist for paying more attention to #Ukraine.

We (@Qnie_Addis & @Kings_of_Nile) analysed his tweets, RTs & likes starting from Oct 2021. Given his pronouncements, what we found was quite revealing.
2/ When you pay close attention to his Twitter activity, despite his protestations, #Tigray predominate his TL. He sometimes tweets, RTs or likes up to 8 Tigray related tweets per day! He has tweeted, RTd or liked tweets mentioning Tigray 208 times over the past 23 months!
3/ What about #Yemen you ask? And #Syria? Surely, the man who claims to be the conscience of the world would tweet incessantly about these humanitarian crises that had been raging for years. Nope! In reality, they are occasionally invoked only to accompany #Ukraine and Tigray.
