OPDO (or clique or the head) is the maker and shaker of current Ethiopia, no question! But I always find myself fighting the urge to call it by that name because O represents people.

To be honest, I had used OPDO in my posts before but I feel guilty during and after. Another side of me says I shouldn’t feel guilty because it’s not me who came up with the name of the party. But then my conscience still fights me saying the people are not responsible for naming OPDO neither. So I try to trick my conscience by adding PP, calling it OPDO/PP. But this still doesn’t give my conscience comfort.

Also I feel it’s endangering the people if we constantly say OPDO. This is because some may interpret this to mean the people regardless of the fact that OPDO does not represent people.

Don’t get me wrong, I believe we should call a spade a spade. But at the end of the day I need to be a better person than the cruel rulers. Our fight should be just.


It’s also smart to call it PP since calling it OPDO may offend the people which hurts our struggle for all.

What do feel about all this folks?

I feel you need to be recruited and paid by PP and you are positioning your behind for that purpose. Hope you will sing PP ወይ ሞት soon. ገልጣም አጋመ

You and DefendTheLie are the same…you two clowns used to serve the ኢህአዴግ/OPDO and now you are itching to join the ruling class, Poverty Party.

Just because they renamed themselves PP to trick the Amhara and Southern tribes doesn't mean anything

They are OPDO they are Oromo and supported by certain Oromo tribes like the savages of Arsi and Bale. While OLF is supported by Welega and Guji tribes. So these 2 parties have Oromo peoples backing based on clans

[eden]

funny for a guy calling himself noble very comfortably throwing words like ‘savage’ referring to people.

it’s when I witness such posts I feel like technology came too soon for us. this guy should have lived and passed before the advent of interconnectedness where any utterances are heard in all corners of the world.

I appreciate your concern for the oromo people which we all need to be aware of. However, you completely missed the elephant in the room. It is not the name or even the propaganda that matters the most and has the utmost effect. It’s rather the actual visible reality Ethiopians witness daily on the ground that matters the most.

Under the TPLF, TPLF affiliated tigreans enjoyed preferential treatment in every sector of the society and the people were witnessing the inequality firsthand, feeling treated as second class citizens. The resentment and anger kept amassing. If you think the reason for all Ethiopians to join hands to fight TPLF was just names and propaganda then you have learned absolutely nothing.

The same mistake and sin TPLF committed are being committed by it’s disciple OPDO 1000 fold and I’m 100% sure OPDO won’t last half the time TPLF was in power. The anger and resentment against OPDO is 10x greater and is accumulating. It’s not it’s name or any propaganda but the actual crime and utter disregard the rest of Ethiopians experience daily that will hit it very hard.

Unless OPDO learns from the TPLF and radically changes gear towards a system of equality for all Ethiopians, it’s oromay for OPDO much much sooner than it was for the TPLF. The stupidity of OPDO is beyond this world. They actually believe Ethiopians will be ok living as second class citizens after witnessing firsthand how Ethiopians hated TPLF for the exact same sin. This is insane! These OPDO fools are like የጋሪ ፈረስ። They don’t have the capacity to look around as the saying goes “የሚሉሽን በሰማሽ ገበያ ባልወጣሽ”

Eden, I applaud for your response to ደንቆሮ የህወአት ካድሬ who calls himself noble Amhara. There is nothing noble with that scumbag.
As for your characterization of the ruling party as OPDO, I say this : it doesn’t help your cause. You are insulting the Amharas, the Gurages, the Gomogofans, the Sidamas, the Harares, the Woyelaytas, even your Tigreans who work in the government.
ደንቆሮ ለደንቆሮ በሚንጫጫበት ER, you might get a pass for it, don’t count it though to work anywhere except in that bubble.

[DefendTheTruth]

OPDO was created and sustained by TPLF and it used to be the latter's junior all along. If you keep calling it OPDO even after the party renamed itself to PP (overcoming its own creator), then you are no more demonizing OPDO but the loser TPLF, so you have to look for a way out of the impasse.

A good try, finally!

eden, this sounds and looks like a payback letter to the Oromo who loved you.

[sesame]

Whatever you call it, it is an Orommuma party! So at least be honest about that!

temari, I read your post three times to see the point you say I’m missing. My conclusion is, I think you are the one missing the point and allow me to explain. I think you are not separating those ‘affiliated with parties’ from ‘people’.

Tigrians who took advantage and work TPLF machinery to be rich are Tigrians, yes, but they are not the people. The same principle with few Oromos who see an opportunity in working the OPDO machinery to enrich themselves.

I do agree if you say the perception is Tigrian people benefited under TPLF and Oromo people are benefiting under OPDO now. This may be true and this exactly is why it’s dangerous.This is why you and I should not say OPDO because it contributes to the perception which, in turn, fuels violence against people.

….

DTT, correction: OPDO changed name, yes but not to PP. We call it OPDO because its name was OPDO for decades. It’s like saying Shabya instead of HGDEF. If Weyane changes name to Honey, won’t you still call it by its old name? In any case, you can read my post this way if it helps you see my main idea: Is it morally wrong and dangerous of us to isolate (and target) the ruling party OPP?

[eden]

Eden,

Do you honestly believe these individuals from all backgrounds have a say in the decisions of PP or the government? I don’t.

Don’t take my word for it. Remember the non TPLF inside EPRDF were confessing they were telalaki, that the real power resided with TPLF? Or you think things changed under this regime? Do you think those non OPP inside PP pick their own regional President?

Eden,

I wouldn't insult you as Fendadaw-QiTamu did but i have a solution to the dilema you faced. Instead of using OPDO, have you ever thought of using OPDG? where G stands to the true and authentic name of the Galla people? Calling a spade as a spade is the way out and as i don't see hope on this people maturing to the civilization era many people reached and their intention to erase civilization once more, i wouldn't baby sit them even on discussion forums
