Is Abiy’s Red Sea talk testing the unity of pro FANO Ethiopians?

With all the ugliness and weaknesses of this forum, one valuable aspect it has is that it kinds of reflects the diverse emotions and outlooks of real folks on the ground.
I think, following Abiy’s televised shrewd Red Sea presentation to parliament, the opposition to his rule from FANO and its advocates is already softening. It appears, those who are waging armed resistance and media wars against his weak regime are beginning to have second thoughts.
Some will continue to fight him fiercely to the bitter end but others, seduced by his Red Sea speech, may soften their resolve against his rule or even join him. This may effectively split FANO and its rock solid supporters between those who continue to see Abiy as a clear and present danger and those who get seduced by the dream of being a country by the Red Sea to be delivered by Abiy.
Not only are folks splitting into groups, the split is occurring even at each individual level: should I fight Abiy or support Abiy? Do I want to remove Abiy if he is delivering Red Sea?
It will definitely be interesting to see, in the coming weeks, if pro FANO forum members will soften their voice against the inhumane Arat Kilo regime. Equally interesting to see if they will continue to worship the the inhumane Adi Halo regime.
