What can you tell me about the communist Derg Junta regime?

>don't true communism

What do you want to know?

If you're from /pol/ it might interest you to know the regime persecuted Jews (known as Beta Israel) and eventually the majority left the country with Israel even participating in secret operations to rescue them.

In many ways it was necessary, I as a minority benefitted atleast from previous generations in some ways by the policies but it was dictatorship totalitarianism too.

I'm ambivalent, some older habesha are angry but they were slave owning mass landowners with serfs so fuck them.

It's more complicated than that anon, I say that as a Beta Israeli

Just the general gist of the regime. I know that it seized power in a coup in a deposed of the emperor in 1975 I believe. But other than that I really don't know much about the derg regime.

Please elaborate more, if you want.
