In Ethiopia, I noticed there are three types of bigotry:
1. Oromo vs. the rest of Ethiopia – Why don’t we see the same level of racism directed at groups like the Gurage or Welayta people? Everywhere you go, there is racism towards the Oromo people. Why has the whole nation been collectively racist towards them throughout Ethiopian history?
2. Orthodox vs. Protestant – Like bro, I just don’t get what the beef is. Both of you share the same religion, yet you hate each other to the bone. The hate usually doesn’t even stem from doctrinal differences, but rather from how the religion is practiced. And no one gives a fuck about the Catholic people or other Christian denomination, also no hate towards muslims, it’s just the two fighting it out.
3. Dark-skinned vs. light-skinned people – You guys have no idea how big the business behind skin-bleaching products is here in Ethiopia and around the world. I don’t know why, but it seems more prevalent in the Muslim community.
What’s sad is that lighter skin is often associated with beauty, wealth, or higher status, while darker skin is clapped, even every ones porn preference is for light skinned ppl , so much so that pornhub got so much backlash that it is racist for not recommending dark skinned content ,when they were just pushing content that were getting more views, now it is forcefully suggesting dark skinned content to avoid racism.
