I didn't realize some Ethiopians resent Somalis for not wanting to be a united country. And for going into war with them. They also continue to spread this idea that we are Arab wannabes because we are Muslim but half their country is too. Atleast Somalis are all Muslim while they accepted every religion from the M.E. Also why the shame over it when these religions have spread around the whole world? Indians feel the same betrayal with Pakistanis but they were in a brutal war and they were all Hindu. We never had a brutal war although I do think Siad was foolish and I don't know if the Arab nations pushed him to do it. I can see why they are mad over it.
Anyways I never knew Ethiopians (I never was around them) looked down on us. I do know that they have a better reputation worldwide. Since it has ties to all three religions and has fought powerful nations. This one Historian I met told me that ppl give Ethiopia credit but it was all of the Horn. Basically it's all of our history not Ethiopias history (including Sudan, Ethiopia, Somalis, Egypt etc.) All the areas ppl were Cushites. This one Sudanese girl just did her dna and was mostly Somali.
And for Ethiopians to say we are mixed with Arabs (Semities) isn't completely correct. Some of us are but some of their tribes are as well. Clearly Amharic people are Semitic or mixed with Semitic. And since we always lived near Semitic ppl, what's the big deal? Ppl mix. I'm sure a lot of us share dna with them too.
See I think some Ethiopians have embraced Black Supremacy and like to pretend they don't see themselves as different. They tend to hide their xenophobia better than us. They like to push this idea that they are pro black but they don't like intermarrying even with us.
I don't think there is anything wrong with some Pan Africans centering Ethiopia. Even though West Africa had major civilizations too. But all continents have this problem. In Europe it was always the British (Germans and French competiting for it too). In Asia it's the Japanese (not so much anymore), China and Korea. In Africa they like exclude North Africa and centre Ethiopia, Nigeria, South Africans (maybe add Kenya etc). But again Ethiopia is not even doing well so I'm not sure why. But OK.
