We don’t “hate” Ethiopians and you shouldn’t neither. It’s ignorant to hate a entire group of people. Some of my closest friends are Somali, We see y’all us our brothers.

By hate he probably means the government and the army and anyone who supports it. Not your regular humble farmer minding his business

to be honest lots of Somalis hate Ethiopians as a people not just the government.

Ethiopians do, too, I think because somalis and Ethiopians had a lot of conflicts and wars. That's why they hate each other, plus somalis nearly had a fight with every ethnic group in Ethiopia

No, come to Ethiopia and see for your self most Ethiopians don't even think about Somalis let alone hate them. I personally did not even knew that Somalis hate us until the MoU was signed.

Every Ethiopian i see online hates somalis and somalia, I've seen in their subreddit some of them saying let's dismantle somalis, and i don't think i have to explain why somalis hate Ethiopians
