Is The Grass Greener Outside of Eritrea?

Discussion / Questions

I’ve come to notice both in person and online that Eritrean’s believe that other communities don’t have the issues that we have or that they believe these countries are better than us in other ways. Whether it’s related to racism, sexism, gossip, gender wars, our parents and upbringing, you name it. Ultimately, I’m seeing the impact of this on our community as it is becoming even more divisive and segregated.…. I’m not saying we don’t have issues exclusive to our community like I do believe we are more divided, especially politically than the average country, but it seems like every single thing mentioned is as if Eritrea is the only one with these problems and that if you went to other communities, these problems wouldn’t exist. That said those issues definitely need to be addressed even if they aren’t exclusive to Eritrea but it’s just the way people speak aboutIt is as if we are less than others is mind-boggling to me. I’m curious where this comes from and what the solution is?
