Ethnic Apartheid and Intentional Divides: the Fruits of Global Strife

[thread]

This past weekend, in what could only be described as an act of unspeakable terror, hundreds of Ahmaras were targeted and exterminated in the Wollega region of #Ethiopia.

The victims were young and old, men and women as extremists hellbent on inducing civil strife in my birth land loosened their animus upon civilians who were already bearing the brunt of decades of hopelessness and poverty. Sadly, this horrific

and senseless act of wanton violence was not an outlier but a continuation of a systematic attempt to destroy Ethiopia from within. The root cause of these massacres is a plan that was foisted upon Ethiopians through the auspices of a tribal junta by the name of #TPLF.

At the behest of their globalist masters who selected Meles Zenawi and his cohorts at the London Conference in 1991 to rule Ethiopia with an iron fist. TPLF swept into Addis Abeba promising to deliver change only to birth carnage over nearly three decades of tyranny.

Within short order, TPLF revived apartheid in Ethiopia by way of “ethnic federalism” where homelands were carved out based on tribe and people were literally set apart based on their ethnicities. They then went about conditioning and convincing Ethiopians to view themselves

not through the prism of their common humanity but through the lens of their differences. Layered on top of this malicious design to fracture society is decades of scarcity for the vast majority while a tiny minority led lives of royalty.

After the TPLF committed countless genocides, they were finally pushed to the sidelines as @AbiyAhmedAli seized power promising to bring about a new day of unity. Nearly four years into his tenure, Abiy has done anything but as the very rotten system of ethnic apartheid remains

to this day and continues to be the source of conflict throughout the country. The malevolent brilliance of “ethnic apartheid” is that it has acclimated a generation of Ethiopians, through deliberate indoctrination and false revisions of history, to seek justice through

the perspective of ethnicity. This self-centered focus on human rights is exacerbated each time there is a mass killing. This is the exact reason why “ethnic federalism” was implemented in Ethiopia, the past was but a prelude to present barbarities, it set the stage

for ethnic zealots who are being funded and armed by their globalist masters to commit bloodbaths in order to antagonize people and incite further tribalism. Violence begetting violence, death birthing death, Ethiopia is in a death spiral of retribution and paybacks that will

might very well end with the Balkanization of the country that will set of perpetual destabilization. The plan from the outset was to vilify Ahmaras as the “privileged” masses while painting everyone else as victims. In reality, the issue in Ethiopia was never about ethnicity—

it has always been about class and the few have everything while everyone else suffers. If this sounds familiar, this is exactly what the ruling class are doing here in America as they pit people against each other while the lives of most are being made unbearable.

The only way can overcome this zeitgeist of endless killings and mindless hatred is to speak up for all who are suffering in Ethiopia. Ahmaras, Tigrarus, Oromos, Somalis and all the rest of Ethiopia’s 66 communities are feeling the heat of economic injustices and human rights

infringements. The pains of Ethiopians are tied directly to the pains of Americans and billions of people around the world, only by addressing the disease of inequalities instead of tending to its symptoms can we hope to alleviate the burdens of so many people around the world.

To this end, @AbiyAhmedAli must uproot "ethnic federalism" or else he will prove to be nothing more than TPLF 2.0. Instead of boasting about fruit or wheat production, protect the people so they can be productive and fulfill their potential.

May the hundreds who perished in Wollega rest in peace and may God comfort the hearts of those who lost so many loved ones.
