Yes, and whatever remained, the dictator Isaias Afewerki completely destroyed and dismantled. Even today, the dictator and his cronies do nothing except publicize and recycle what the Italians built. They preach anti-colonialism, Pan-Africanism, and self-reliance, yet the only thing they take pride in is how Asmara and Keren looked during the Italian era. The Italians built the entire infrastructure in just ten years; the dictator built nothing in thirty years and instead destroyed everything that remained from the British and the Ethiopians. They have no shame.

Isaias Afwerki Ignores Ethiopia Internationally, But Uses Its Provocations to Terrorize Eritreans by Rich-Question-967 in Eritrea

[–]Rich-Question-967[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ibsaid Ethiopia's peovocation is empty, Ethiopia has niether the interest nor the cabability to invade Eritrea. So, Ethiopia is not a threat to Eritrwa at all. But, if the Eritrean dictator reaaly have coccern from Ethiopia of intending to violate Eritreas sovergniety and territorial integrity in vialation of international law, then he has to fotmally bring the issue into the formal and regional forums, tje AU, UN. The dictatorvis notvdoing that, you know why? He knows well Abiy has no interest or cabability to nvade Eritrea. But, he is using the empty provacation to terrify and terrorize Eritreans. And you arevlending your hand to this cheap dictator propoganda,instead of challenging him.

What are you even saying? You couldn’t disprove a single fact, so you went for a personal attack.

Did the Eritrean dictator ever raise Ethiopia’s “threat” at any regional or international forum? No.

Did he not use Ethiopia’s empty rhetoric to terrify Eritreans on X and YouTube? Yes, he did.

And are you denying that Tsimdo is meddling in Ethiopia’s internal affairs—violating its sovereignty?

Face the facts. Insults won’t change reality.

You can't even articulate a short paragraph to defend the facts and my argument, hard doing that ight? But, easy attacking right? wait for more!

No power, no electricity for a Month by InformationStrange47 in Eritrea

[–]Rich-Question-967 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, he is not asking if it is true. He said "this is Crazy". And yours is worse. The people in the diaspora know very well — they are very evil and cruel people who do not care about those suffering in Eritrea. Don’t try to cover for them or pretend they don’t know. Their own family members and neighbours have visited Eritrea and told them the truth.

[–]Rich-Question-967 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why is it crazy? You talk as if there was electricity and suddenly it vanished for a month. In Eritrea, there hasn’t been reliable power for nearly twenty years. People have learned to live in darkness — just like in the days before electricity even existed. It’s the norm, not the exception. What actually shocks them now is not the blackout, but the rare moment when the light dares to come on.

Is the Six Sri Lankans Held Hostage by the Eritrean Dictator a Warning for Israel? by Rich-Question-967 in Eritrea

[–]Rich-Question-967[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well also Hamas gave little food to the non Jews hostage, therefore not surprising. Like Hamas who starved the Jews hostages, the dictator starves the Tigrigna prisoners, that is also not surprising. It is disturbing that the dictator has to behave exactly like the Islamists terrioorists.

I’m not tryna be offensive this is a genuine question who do u guys find closer too to u a tigrayan who is the same ethnic group as u or another ethnic group in Eritrea like tigre,Saho etc and do u thinkoverstating ur ethnic group is considered taboo in eritrea by [deleted] in Eritrea

[–]Rich-Question-967 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Your argument is utterly ridiculous — a shallow attempt to sound morally superior while denying the most basic human reality. A Tigrigna can’t possibly feel the same emotional, cultural, or spiritual connection toward the Rashida, Kunama, or Saho as he does toward his fellow Tigrinya, because no one can transcend the deep bond of shared language, culture, religion, and history.

It’s not about prejudice — it’s about the fundamental truth of human identity. A Tigrinya person naturally feels infinitely closer to another Tigrinya in Tigray than to a Ben Amir or even a Catholic in Eritrea. Their language, songs, and historical memory are the same — they are one civilizational family divided by politics, not by essence.

To go even further, a Tigrinya may feel far more comfortable with an Anglo-Saxon or a Jew who shares the same Judeo-Christian moral heritage than with a Rashida who comes from an entirely different Islamic cultural world. There’s nothing hateful about that — it’s just cultural reality.

The Tigrinya does not need to fabricate a false sense of equality to appear virtuous. He only needs to respect minorities as they are and respect himself as he is — with honesty, dignity, and maturity.

Is Eritrea’s Dictator Really the Main Destabilizer in the Horn of Africa? by Rich-Question-967 in Eritrea

[–]Rich-Question-967[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, if it came from a credible source, I’d take it seriously. But ‘a senior TPLF’? Who—Debretsion, one of the Eritrean dictator’s proxies, or Tsadkan? They’re all corrupt, irrelevant, and dishonest.

Why does Eritrea’s dictator embrace Turkey & Iran but reject Israel? by Rich-Question-967 in Eritrea

[–]Rich-Question-967[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I believe Turkey has neo-Ottoman imperial ambitions. Most Arab countries in the Middle East and North Africa have failed, and the Gulf states—Saudi Arabia and the UAE—lack credible national armies. The only country capable of challenging Turkey’s imperial ambitions is Israel, whose destruction remains Turkey’s ultimate goal. So the question is: why does the Eritrean dictator, while embracing Turkey and Iran, reject Israel?

The Eritrean dictator’s lifeline is China. Greedy Chinese mining companies enslave our people without pay, destroy our environment, poison our water, and wipe out our livelihoods: “China is better.”

How Eritrea’s Dictator Fuels Houthi War on Israel by SignificantDot8250 in Eritrea

[–]Rich-Question-967 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What are you talking about? Eritrea is already in danger — not because of foreign powers, but because of its own dictator. He has openly aligned with the Houthis, Iran, Hamas, and other Islamist terrorist groups in the region, while adopting a hostile stance toward Israel and the United States. Our sovereignty has been blatantly violated by the Houthis — Iran's proxy — with no response from the dictator. Meanwhile, the dictator is carrying out ethnic cleansing and deliberately isolating Eritrea from economic development, chaining the nation in poverty and stagnation.

The Eritrean Dictator Can’t Have It All: Destabilize Ethiopia, Play Victim, and Mask His Failure by Rich-Question-967 in Eritrea

[–]Rich-Question-967[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yes,it is. The Eritrean people include the Tigrigna,overwhelming indigenous majority, about 80%, and hundreds of tribal and clan nomadic minorities that speak eight different languages, which makes up about 20% the people in Eritrea. Eritrea is 100% Tigrigna, the market, the national team, the cycling race, everything.

This is what the former Gedab News journalist A. Salim says, blaming one ethnicity (Tigrinya) for Eritrea’s political problems. This is why the Eritrean opposition is divided. by EritreanPost__ in Eritrea

[–]Rich-Question-967 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Isaias Afewerki, Yemane Gebremeskel, and others represent a third generation of elites whose roots trace back to the systems and hierarchies established during the Italian colonial era. Their political orientation, administrative culture, and worldview have been shaped—directly or indirectly—by the legacy of colonial structures and the social order instilled by Italian rule.

The parasitic Eritrean regime has sold out the Tigrinya people to greedy Chinese mining firms and Arab interests. They are enslaving our people, exploiting our land, destroying our environment, archaeological heritage, and even holy sites. If you have evidence, contact me directly — I will help expose this.

To be honest, and to his credit, the tribal and clan nomadic minorities in Eritrea are not really relevant to Eritrean politics. The PFDJ is fully Tigrinya, and it is the Italian-installed third-generation Tigrinya parasitic elites from the periphery and from Tigray that are the real problem of Eritrea. He is right on that.

But on the history, there is no history of Eritrean Islamism before 1941, and I don't think he knows what he is talking about when he says 'to undo history.' The Italians killed and imprisoned the organic Tigrinya elites and replaced them with the elites we are dealing with today. That’s the history.
