a thread on why these type of messages ARENT okay (focused on specifically the amharic language from an ethiopian-american)
the language used is amharic which is the official language of ethiopia, considering that people use this language in their everyday lives 24/7 you should understand why people would be upset that their language is being used this way
thread on amharic and its history ! https://twitter.com/triviaphoenix/status/1311915906574974976
Ethiopia itself gets so much under representation in western media today, many times people dont even recognize the country at all. To bring our language into such a negative and mocking way is beyond disrespectful to its people +
considering the fact this can easily be misinterpreted as ethiopians sending the message as its in their language.
