A must read from one of the journalists I respect the most, @zekuzelalem.bsky.social. We heard all about how drones were going to be revolutionizing medicine delivery in Africa and all that. But what is happening?

Cheap drones have been extending warfare on the continent.

I said "some" because the genocide of Tigrayans was a popular one that had the backing of a huge section of Ethiopian society. As half a million people perished from massacres & a humanitarian siege, we had these grifters fly into our country & produce vile propaganda denying endless human suffering

Tweet: Timnit Gebru Fuck Rania Khalek and everyone at Breakthrough News. We will never forget your genocidal selves. Zero morals, only anti-genocide when it suits them. I will never forget how you actively supported #TigrayGenocide & Eritreans being murdered by the dictatorial regime. Quote Rania Khalek @RaniaKhalek · Dec 13 The lack of concern for the future of minorities and secular people in Syria and the broader region is shocking. Some are dismissing this as unimportant. Others are justifying persecuting them in the name of revenge or sectarianism. Same with the way people don’t seem to care Show more

Behind Timnit's tweet, there are sentiments that bind Eritreans & some Ethiopians...with Syrians. So many infamous pro Assad tankies involved in denialism from 2011-2024, washed over so much bloodshed in our region as well from 2020-2022.
Honestly, grateful to see Syrians holding them to account.

We learned that the suffering of so many vulnerable communities can be erased for the right price.

So for the millionth time...a person's stance on Gaza alone cannot exonerate them if they're involved in fueling repression, denialism & mass slaughter elsewhere.

If Putin can be indicted for “stealing” Ukranian children, then the Belgian State can certainly be convicted of same in relation to Colonised Congo - a shocking ancient tale - but crimes against humanity have no statutes of limitation www.theguardian.com/world/2024/d...
