As promised:
 
... So in 2018 a shitty Tigray leader gets replaced by Abiy. He's a cool kid ("cool" as in "fitting" - translator's note) - a son of Oromo father and Amhara mother, a Protestant himself - so as a result he's not connected too strong with any of the major factions (Oromo are Muslims (non-radical), Amhara are Orthodox Christians for the most part). And his policy is pretty cool - to change Ethiopia and break out from the all the fucked up shit (he's talking about the social situation here - t.n.) and corrupt dealings.
 
So, his goals were:
- peace and mutual benefits with the neighboring countries (and he achieved that and got a Nobel prize for ending war with Eritrea)
- economic reforms (industrialization, flirting with China without becoming its bitch, a dam on a Nile's tributary, a general improvement their whole shitty economic system) in which he made some good progress
- a religious peace in which he achieved success
- a military reform and in particular disbandment of local militias (de facto private armies of local ethnic cliques - just like Tigrays and their TPLF)
- changing Ethiopia from a fucked up ethnofederation into a regular federation with civic nationalism
 
The last point means - let's take a local example - that for example in Russian Federation all the citizens are Russians ("rossiane", "citizens of Russia"; as opposed to "russkie" i.e. ethic Russians - t.n.), and the specific ethnicity doesn't matter much (only on a local level, like Tatar language for Tatarstan). Or like in USA were everyone are Americans first and foremost. Or in Switzerland were the Swiss civic identity is more important than being a French, German, Italian etc. Or even among the khokhols, were everyone is a Ukrainian despite the language and this is the default position of the majority (and this example is specifically chosen to show a non-ideal, yet working example). I.e. the civic identity matters, not the ethnicity. And Abiy wanted that in Ethiopia everyone were Ethiopians. Without infringements and violence. And this is the fucking right way.
 
But that would mean that all the "X liberation fronts" would loose their power - together with their corrupted elites. A part of them didn't and doesn't give a fuck, but some did take offense, especially Tigrays who were at the origins of the whole movement, and to a lesser degree, Oromo. The whole war kinda started to end these elites with their assholish policies.
 
And we're coming to the part where Abiy has shat himself. Not only he started fighting not just TPLF but all Tigrays (for today in the capital the majority of Tigrays were arrested - just because of their language and ethnicity, kek), but he also started to uproot the civs by terror - there were a lot of rapes and kebabenings of Tigrays. And to tell the truth, there are rumors that a similar shit happened when there were others, smaller actions (could be translated as "rallies"/"protests" - t.n.) against his power.
 
As a result, from a fucktribution of elites and an assholish party the conflict turned into an ethnic one. Fucking up Abiy has become a question of people's survival for Tigrays. Other pussyboys, not as powerful (as Tigrays - t.n.) were waiting for the outcome, but now have joined the Tigrays, Oromo Liberation Front in particular. For those factions the ethnic balance was upset, there was a lot of discrimination, and the ethnically targeted fucking-up of Tigrays and to a lesser degree other ethnic minorities have become the last fucking straw, and, as their goal, they are seeking to restore the old model of ethnofederation (and no, most likely they are not going to leave Ethiopia, despite their kinda-sorta separatism).
 
Abit has a vision for the future. But he did shat himself and crossed the red lines, making radical reforms in 2 years after taking power. An ethofederation would be a return to the status-quo, but this status-quo is a shit-show and a road to nowhere. And yet the fact that Abiy was murdering civs can never be justified and he has deserved to be fucked.
 
In short, Ethiopia is in deep shit. Either the ethnofederation model would win, or a powerful populist leader, which would continue to rein in the country by violence and terror. The local sheeple will suffer anyhow.

Personally I like drawing the parallels between Ethiopia and Yugoslavia – ethnofederations where one group was overrepresented in federal politics from the start (Tigrayans, Slovenes) but as generations changed, this turned around (in Yugoslavia, things rapidly started shifting when Tito died), and power balance shifted.
 
Then things start diverging.
As this text mentions: Abiy is an outsider to all ethnic groups – in Yugoslavia, it was a power struggle between Croats and Serbs, with Serbs coming on the top by late 80s. Though many Serbs saw ethnofederation dissolving as simply righteously abolishing all the other fake nations that are just psyopped Serbs.
The whole thing didn't sit well with not only Croat wing of the party and military – but also with the Slovene political elites, who wanted to keep an ideological grasp on the whole system.
So, when it came to it, even Slovene communists joined the mostly libdem separatists – hoping to take power again in separate Slovenia. (Which mostly worked, since they managed to convince them not to do any deep cleaning in the judiciary and media, allowing them to keep control over the narrative.)
But in case of Tigray, it seems that Tigrayans have no desire to secede – they want to preserve (or reinstate) the ethnofederal system where they are at the top & the structure of corruption is strictly decentralised.

funny how iq89 keep committing the same mistakes, serbs behave like this too
he has always bee in favour of raping tigray btw
<In a speech to assembled Ethiopian ambassadors in January 2019, alluding to the role of soldiers during the battle of Adua in 1896 and later, during the Eritrean war, Abiy said: "This hasn't been researched, but it's obvious. From the battle of Adwa during the time of Menelik, to the later wars, many people from central Ethiopia – Oromos, Amharas – have been going to Tigray to fight. They were there for the war with Eritrea, and there's been a military presence in Tigray for the 30 years since. So, if you're wondering what the proportion of Oromo in Tigray is, leave it for DNA to find out. [Hilarity in the audience] It's probably wrong to say this, but: those who went to Adwa, to fight, didn't just go and come back. Each of them had about 10 kids." [Loud laughter of the audience and applause].

If we've been on fourchan I would be forced to write something like "holybased", because it's a place for monsters and they would eat you alive if you won't be a monster yourself, but thankfully we're not on fourchan, so I can be sincere and say that rape is never cool. Unless of course if it isn't a sex roleplay with your submissive gf/wife who enjoys that kind of stuff - than it's cool and hot and based and proper.
 
So thank you for your comments, likes and subscribing. Laibach just because.

And if you behave like a pest
We have a magical tube
That controls the wect
And bloggers from YouTube
We have the best
Hackers in the world
They hack the elections
To give us more control
And if you are fooling around
And post bad words in the net
We'll steal money from your account
So you will never forget
And when real danger is near
And enemies are scouting our sides
Soon they all will feel
The taste of hypersonic missiles

Summer sea is warm
It's waves are licking the sand
We are standing on the shore
And you are holding my hands
I remember that evening was ours
But we were divided in two
When the last sunset hours
Separated me from you
 
Oh my toilet toilet I am sitting alone
Blue plastic box with a lonely hole
 
Our romantic evening
I will never forget about it
But now I can only sing
How I ran away take a shit

And mountains are huge
I know different trails
And I will show them to you
When the rain will fall
I will give you my coat
And the falling stone
Will be stopped with my boot
 
You will pay me in the night
Where is darkness around for miles
But our lonely tent is bright
And you give me your smile
You will not close your eyes
Because you are afraid of the bears
And unknown screams in the sky
Are awaking your primal fears
 
I did it for years
I know that your hand
To fight cold and fear
Will jerk off me in the tent
This is my route
It works every time
There is no girl
Who can stand my charm

>The majority (30-80%) of the solanine in potatoes is found in the outer layer of the potato.[27] Therefore, peeling potatoes before cooking them reduces the glycoalkaloid intake from potato consumption
>Chewing a small piece of the raw potato peel before cooking can help determine the level of solanine contained in the potato; bitterness indicates high glycoalkaloid content.[19] If the potato has more than 0.2 mg/g of solanine, an immediate burning sensation will develop in the mouth.[19]
I learned something new. Guess I'll be removing my skins from now on.
>Green colouring under the skin strongly suggests solanine build-up in potatoes, although each process can occur without the other. A bitter taste in a potato is another – potentially more reliable – indicator of toxicity. Because of the bitter taste and appearance of such potatoes, solanine poisoning is rare outside conditions of food shortage. The symptoms are mainly vomiting and diarrhea, and the condition may be misdiagnosed as gastroenteritis.
Most grains have too many adverse effects on our digestive system. Wheat is a agitator of schizophrenia and slows our digestive tracts, while inhibiting beneficial bacteria growth. It may have saved our ancestors from countless famines but we should move away from it and the consequences of its agricultural production. Soy may be worse as it creates hormonal imbalances while ravaging the land, but nothing is as destructive to arable plots as maize is and how we process its syrup into a lot of our foods. It's downright disgusting the poverty we place ourselves into to indulge in what we believe is acceptable eating habits to please others or satisfy dopamine hits.
