The images coming out of #Tigray tell a harrowing story of systemic violence. Civilians, including children, are being targeted under the shadow of #TigrayGenocide. The world must act now to investigate independently. #Justice4TigrayGenocide

Eritrean troops continue to abduct Tigrayans despite the cease-fire, blatant violation of peace efforts. Leaders must pressure Eritrea to leave #Tigray for safety’s sake

I think that I have finished my first thread for BlueSky. I'll know when I look at it again tomorrow. The current draft is about disinformation and the Tigray Genocide and features an appearance from the world's cringiest genocide denier.

Stay tuned.

This is a screen shot from a video produced by a disinformation website called GetFactET featuring a young white American male wearing, for whatever reason, a Malcolm X hat and a vest. He is defending the Ethiopian government from accusations of gross human rights violations against an American flag backdrop. He looks angry and the caption reads "I hope we are not taking our eye off the ball."

I swear that's what the image actually shows.

Two years after the Pretoria Agreement, Eritrean forces still occupy Tigray’s border regions. This violation perpetuates suffering and destabilizes the Horn of Africa. World leaders, enforce peace now! #UpholdPretoriaAgreement #EritreanTroopsOutOfTigray
