I’m no expert on the nuances of Ethiopian politics, but my understanding is that it’s less that Ethiopia is genocidimg the Tigray people, but that the legacies of the Ethiopian monarchy, and a botched Socialist experiment has left the country a prisonhouse of nations, that’s Perpetually on the brink of balkanizing itself.
The Tigray thing feels like such a bizarre pull.

Any Ethiopia experts wanna chime in?
idk, all I know about it is whatever Timnit Gebru posts. I don’t think I would have heard about it otherwise.
