    kinda feels like repurposing radlib commentary on the bush era for the trump era

    Its is exactly that, the comics written by Ennis were his anti bush outlet plus his way of criticizing 00s superhero comics from DC/Marvel via being really edgy

    1. to me i see it as a national unification struggle similar to the DPRK, Ethiopia took over the Ogaden region around 60-80 years during Menelik II's conquests which were backed by imperialist power like France and Britain to have an allied control the interior of the Horn and even helped them put doing independist movements like the dervish movement

    2. i did simplified the ogaden war to civil war but yes the refugee crisis did play a part in the somalian civil war

    also i forgot during the ogaden war cuba and the ussr supported the Derg in the Eritrean War of Independence which was also bad

    also most of what i know is from Horn of africa Leftists which seem to know their stuff

    the ethiopia backing is bad because in one part Somalia became a socialist ML state before them and was the USSR ally in the horn, when the Ogaden war happen, the USSR abandoned its old ally over ethiopia who was the stronger power in the Horn and Also with the Cubans lead an intervention to help ethiopia causing Somalia to lose the war and try to search for new allies eventually leading to the end of socialism in somalia and the collapse of the country.

    as a punitive measure the Derg did ethnic cleasing with cuban support in the Ogaden region

    here is what an admin told me

    Account actions including login are currently rate limited to mitigate the ability of the fascist wreckers currently raiding

    if you look at the modlog, in the morning of today there were a bunch of new accounts banned, and its because there was a raid
