Does anyone know why Haile Selassie was horrible?

[BetterAkhlaq]

I'm writing an argumentative speech, and I need to know his misdeeds, I have trouble finding most of them online.

So if anyone here is knowledgeable of Ethiopia in the latest century, hop on and throw some facts, specifically about Haile Selassie.

Thanks, this time I am not looking for toxicity, only to promote truth.

• Forcing citizens to learn amharic
• Forced conversions of Oromo muslims to Christianity
• Massacres of Somalis, Hararis and Oromos
• Rampant corruption and robbing poor farmers and herders of their crops and livestock
• Allying with European colonizers against fellow Africans

And many more...

Look for human rights violations and use of collective punishments as your main arguments.

He let his own people suffer from famine, while he ate in his million dollar grand imperial palace. A man with a sociopathic god complex, who killed his own compatriots while still claiming to be pious- peace loving fella. He is a bipolar maniac and the fact that people in Jamaica still worship this clown is embarrassing.

Are you kidding @BetterAkhlaq ! The man was awful! I shouldn't call him a man, he was half a man cause he was just 4'8 ft.

This man led a country that was stuck in the medieval times. He ruled that place for close to 40 years.

He presided over an absolute monarchy. He allowed the aristocracy to reign supreme where few owned the land while the masses dwelled in indentured servitude.

His biggest crime was to allow 2 million of his subjects to die of starvation after crops failed. He treasured a fake image to the outside world where he recklessly didn't set off the alarm on a huge disaster. That led to 2 million dead in 1960s and early 70s. This was the catalyst to his overthrow and soldiers hating him so much that they strangled him and buried him under a toilet for all to xaar on him

Thanks for proving the PDF, and also what a scumbag, he got mad that he was losing face due to his 'peasants' dying due to a famine.

This man lived for an image of grandeur status where the midget wanted to be viewed in the same lenses as the kings and queens of Europe. The man was so out of touch with the backwardness of his people that he imagined his country was advanced. When famine hit he would close the country from foreign visitors. How deplorable the man was.

Btw he wasn't the rightful king to the throne. They killed the Muslim convert that was heir apparent
