    "Dr Dereje Gerefa Tullu": When Education Turns Against Humanity

    By Malkkaa Beenyaa (MA, Social Psychologist) Posted on2026-02-182026-02-17

    When a PhD-educated public figure like Dereje Gerefa Tullu employs dehumanizing, eliminationist rhetoric, the issue is not political disagreement but moral collapse. Education is meant to civilize power, not aestheticize violence. When learning is repurposed to normalize threats and glorify force, it ceases to be enlightenment and becomes an accessory. The danger lies not only in the words spoken, but in how confidently they are spoken—revealing how ordinary cruelty can sound when dressed in educated language.

    OROMIA TODAY – Basic Politics Lessons 101For members of political parties in general and the Prosperity Party in particular

    By Malkkaa Beenyaa (MA, Social Psychologist) Posted on2026-01-092026-01-09

    It has become increasingly clear that many party members lack even a basic understanding of the norms, limits, and responsibilities of political life. A dangerous assumption has taken root: that once a party forms a government, it automatically owns the state. This false belief is where criminality begins, now an everyday occurrence under the Prosperity Party. Written as Politics Lessons for reflection rather than insult, this article helps members identify where political participation ends and personal liability begins, concluding with Safuu as a moral anchor in public life.

    By Malkkaa Beenyaa Posted on2025-07-082025-07-07

    This is Part II of The Gentleperson Code, continuing from Part I—A Cross-Cultural Compass for Modern Dignity. In this installment, we examine how leadership failures, social media, and shifting community values have shattered society’s moral compass. From the quiet erosion of ethical standards to the public normalization of corruption, this piece explores why moral clarity matters—and what’s at stake when it fades.
