Why do young Somalis in the west deny the Isaaq genocide but have unlimited concern for Gaza and Sudan?

Its clearly due to qabyalaad and kids have been poisoned by their qabiilist parents, primarily in America.

More Isaaqs died than in Gaza and Sudan. Hargeisa and Burco were close to 100% destroyed. Not only is there no regret for it happening but people deny it even happened.

I think the Somalianlanders online are motivated to hit back and work with the rightwing due to this denial. Imagine how different the environment would be if Somalians were just honest and regretful about the past and move forward.

Ok in their defense the majority of Somalis online supporting gaza and Palestine are zoomers born more than a decade after the civil war.

Meanwhile the Israel conflict is happening as we speak.

What do you want them to do? Condemn a genocide 30 years ago and then what?

I genuinely want to know what you expect or want from Somalis in the west to do about the isaaq genocide today.

No dictator can imprison a population forever.
No one denies there was mass killings, Barre ordered many across Somalia massacred, including other darood clans. Online Issaq are in no way motivated by that. 60% of Somalis alive now were born after 91, all of it is qabilyaad. No other reason. Genocide is a very technical term to describe something specific. The people arguing on twitter were not born yet.

Gaza and Sudan are happening now in the internet age where these youth are active. We have no love for the Tigray people but we acknowledge what happened to them in the recent war, even here on this site. If we recognize that you think Somalis would ignore dead Somalis?

People forget we are a young people with 75% of Somalis being under 35. I doubt most even know most of the events of the civil war unless you research it yourself.

We have a very young global population which means most of the Somalis that are alive today weren't even alive when the mass killings happened to multiple qabiils so how do you expect them to know about it let alone condemn it. Meanwhile the Gaza and Sudan genocides are happening as we speak.
 
For one, go to Isaaqs, and they most definitely care. Though if you talk to other people, you will get a range of wicked reactions that go from celebrating it, to outright willful denial, and the "it was not that bad and your tribe is not innocent, though" -- with most having varying shades of underlying tribalist contempt, whereas a sizable minority holds full acknowledgment.

Secondly, and this is very important, the Palestinian genocide and the war and massacres in Sudan are ongoing.

LG gang we gon slide for my nigga 🤐🥷
Firstly no one denies it and secondly the genocide in Sudan and Palestine are happening as we speak the Hargeisa bombings was back inda 80s lastly this shyt gets brought up by isaaqs all the time it’s their main talking point when they explain why they want independence open up ur ears and you’ll hear people talking about it that shit honestly gets too much attention and here you are saying no one mentions it. The real question is why don’t Somalis ever have a conversation about the atrocities that happened to Rahanweyn Hawiye and MJ tons of them also got killed but I never hear Somalis talk about that.
