"It’s happening for the 3rd time in Ethiopia & we are yet to come up with a name for it" Tsedale Lemma

Post by sarcasm » 11 Jun 2021, 07:53

As Karl Marx aptly said “History repeats itself, first as tragedy, second as farce.”
It’s happening for the 3rd time in Ethiopia & we are yet to come up with a name for it.
PS: The death of 13 in #Tigray due to lack of food was 1st reported in Jan. The officials who spoke were disciplined.

If it was that much in January, then the figure must have been different today, after 6 months, why is someone not telling us the current figure? Is it so inconvenient?

Instead of looking for the name and spending her time, she could have rushed to help those she claimed were dying due to lack of food, her crocodile tear. She must be in a position to save at least one of those 13 lives, if serious.

Eden as you wrote Karl Marx did not say “ history repeats itself.” It is the poet, essayist, philosopher, and novelist George Santayana who said that.

History only repeats itself when we don’t learn from it.

Hi Sam,

It was Tshedale's quotation. I think she meant for the entire sentence.

Haile Selassie I and Mengistu starved the people of Tigray. Who would have thought Abiy would follow in their footsteps?
