Canadians, we can ask candidates in this election: if Canada wants to be a global peacekeeping leader, what will their party promise to do to de-escalate Eritrea and Ethiopia?
If we want to be taken seriously as a nation we need to act accordingly.

Please send it over to anyone who will listen & can do something about it. Our people can’t afford another war.

Social Media Platforms Are Spreading Violent Warmongering Content Encouraging All-Out War Between Ethiopia and Eritrea, Again
A statement from @DAIR at https://www.dair-institute.org/blog/tigray-social/
"For the last 3 years, we have been researching and documenting the role of social media platforms in exacerbating the 2020-2022 Tigray war. We performed computational analyses to quantify the level of hate speech on these platforms, and interviewed content moderators to better understand the organizational practices that have resulted in the platforms’ failures to adequately curb genocidal language. These platforms pledged to do better following the revelation that they promoted violence that incited genocide against the Rohingya in 2016. Facebook claimed to do “longstanging work to protect people in Ethiopia” when confronted with its moderation failures during the 2020-2022 Tigray war which resulted in the genocide of Tigrayans. But we are seeing an acceleration of the same type of warmongering on social media platforms that we documented at the beginning of the catastrophic Tigray war in 2020.
It's not enough to perform a postmortem analysis after millions have been killed, maimed, or displaced, and merely promise to do better without delivering on that promise....
This spread of violent language is not unique to Facebook. Clear calls for mass violence and warmongering on TikTok, X (formerly Twitter), and YouTube are exponentially growing with no signs of action by these companies. Supporters and opponents of both the Ethiopian and Eritrean governments have spent months antagonizing each other on these platforms, threatening to destroy each other on the battlefield, promoting the recruitment of fighters, and demonizing enemy factions. Renowned Ethiopian government-backed activists with hundreds of thousands of followers have flooded these platforms with clear calls for all-out war against Eritrea and the annexation of its territory."

Am vergangenen Montag wurde am Strand von Mack, #Pas-de-Calais 
, der leblose Körper einer 30-jährigen Frau gefunden, die wahrscheinlich aus #Eritrea stammt. Sie trug eine Rettungsweste, als sie gefunden wurde. Wiederbelebungsversuche blieben erfolglos.
Mit ihr haben in nicht mal einer Woche bei Pas-de-Calais 3 Menschen beim Versuch, den #Ärmelkanal zu überqueren, ihr Leben verloren., in 2025 jetzt mindestens 9.

#Trump has #Russia, #NorthKorea, #Syria, and #Eritrea on his cards. Congrats.
The list of countries voting against condemning Putin for the invasion of Ukraine reads like The League Of Failed Democracies (other than North Korea, which never bothered pretending to be a democracy).
joining the same team as north korea, russia, sudan, and equatorial guinea feels like a real "jumping the shark" moment for america.
p.s. people wondering why #Palau is on the list may be unaware that Palau is a real up and comer in the global #MoneyLaundering industry and has become infested with russian money in the aftermath of the sanction regime.

The Citizen LabDigital Transnational Repression Archives - The Citizen LabDigital transnational repression arises when governments use digital technologies to surveil, intimidate and silence exiled dissidents and diaspora communities. It is part of the broader practice of transnational repression, which refers to states using methods such as harassment, coercion-by-proxy, kidnapping, and assassination attempts, in order to control dissent outside their territories. Digital transnational repression has emerged as a critical area of concern in the context of digital threats against human rights, shrinking civic space, and authoritarian interference in democratic societies. The Citizen Lab’s research explores the methods and impacts of digital transnational repression.
TIL: Eritrea gets is name from the Red Sea or Erythraean Sea (Ἐρυθρὰ Θάλασσα Erythra Thalassa, based on the adjective ἐρυθρός erythros "red").
I should have spotted that.
