There are dozens of valid reasons listed on this page alone to hate Sri Lanka
Including a litany of cases where the Sri Lankan army literally r@ped children and corpses of Tamil children.
Sri Lankans are the last people that should be talking about how bad a country is

🚨 EXCLUSIVE - French tourist says she was assaulted by a Sinhala Buddhist monk, then pressured to drop her case
Speaking exclusively to the Tamil Guardian, Camille* says a young monk led her into a secluded room at the Kadurupokuna Jayasundara Purana Viharaya, put his hands on her and pushed her against a wall as she tried to flee.
At Tangalle police station, she says officers told her she could be prosecuted if the monk took his own life, as senior clergy looked on.
“He walked in and smiled,” she said.
The court hearing lasted less than two minutes. The monk remains free until February 2027, and Camille says she was warned she could face an international arrest warrant if she does not return.

Sinhala thugs have carried out a shooting attack on cattle in the Mayilathamadu–Madhavanai area.
For more than two years, Tamil cattle farmers have been continuously protesting, yet the atrocities and injustices committed by Sinhala farmers against the Tamil farmers and their livestock continue to escalate.

Let's remember that other country MPs have voiced out about Chemmani
While Tamilnadu's 40 MPs have never called for investigation on Chemmani mass graves even once!
🚨 Sri Lankan police question parents of Tamil child who asked for Chemmani justice
A boy at a preschool sports day in Vadamarachchi East dressed as a child buried at Chemmani, carrying a placard that read: “many years ago, while I was drinking milk at my mother’s breast, they buried me. Will I get justice?”
After footage of the costume spread on social media, Sri Lankan police at Maruthankerny station called in the boy’s parents and his preschool teacher for questioning.
Anojan will be persecuted by Sinhalese Buddhist nationalists even when he returns home. xitter.cf/TheNextWave03/status/2…
I appreciate the global attention given to Anojan's persecution by Saudi Arabia, however the same attention should be directed at Sri Lanka.
In Anojan's province, Sinhalese Buddhists have been putting grenades in the mouths of Tamil owned cattle to intimdate Eelam Tamil farmers.
This is done by SInhalese Buddhist colonizers with the support of the SInhalese police.

>I'm glad Palestine gets the attention Eelam deserved
Why can't Eelam get the attention it deserves now? The genocide happened in 2009 and not in 1949.
The DMK + Congress literally led the global campaign to normalize the Sinhalese regime just 5 months after the genocide.
Nothing stops you from becoming vocal against DMK/Congress influence in TN politics. No Tamils should vote for DMK or Congress and no Tamil parties should be in alliance with Congress.
The Palestinian BDS movement advocate for broad economic, tourism, academic, and sports boycotts/sanctions against Israel. Why can't TN do that now while advocating for the rest of India also to do it in the long term. Why are Sinhalese cricket players allowed in Tamil Nadu? Why is India funding Sri Lanka (despite Sri Lanka being per capita richer)?

🚨 Ravikaran cites Maitreyi Ramakrishnan backlash in asking how Tamils can feel Sri Lankan
The Vanni MP told parliament on Friday that the uproar over the actor identifying herself as an Eelam Tamil showed why Tamils on the island cannot feel themselves Sri Lankan.
“The moment our child Maitreyi Ramakrishnan said she was a Tamil Eelam woman, there was uproar on this island and a pile-on on social media. When our being killed is your victory, how can you and we ever become one? Can cutting off one hand with the other be called a victory?”
Tamils had been killed by majoritarian rulers from the Gal Oya settlements of the 1950s through to Mullivaikkal in 2009, he said, and were still waiting as the witnesses died one by one.

Let's not forget Saudi Arabia funnelled 10s of millions on the promotion of radical Wahhabism to Sri Lankan Muslims.
These new wahhabi muslims waged war against moderate sri lankan muslims : burning 100s of homes and mosques, exhuming bodies, declaring people apostates.

Remembering Malathi — 10 October 1987.
Malathi was 20 when she died. She is remembered as the first female LTTE cadre to die in combat. Her anniversary is observed as Tamil Women’s Awakening Day.
The significance of women entering an armed struggle needs to be understood within a society that often expected women to obey, remain silent and leave political decisions to men. Their participation challenged assumptions about who could lead, make decisions and take responsibility for the future of their people.
But that also leaves us with a question: what does true liberation mean for women?
To me, it means being able to speak without being silenced. To make decisions about our own lives and bodies. To live free from violence, harassment and control. To have an equal voice in our homes, our organisations and our political future.
We cannot speak about liberation while asking women to tolerate oppression within our own community. Women’s rights cannot be put aside until some later date.
As a mother of two Eelam Tamil daughters, I want them to know our history. I also want them to grow up knowing that their opinions matter, their choices belong to them, and leadership is their right too.
Remembering Malathi should make us reflect on the lives lost and on our responsibility to women living today.
What are we doing to make the freedom we speak about real for them?

I mean it's terrible, but here is a reminder of how a Sinhala women's group marked International Women's Day in Sri Lanka in 2014 - stamping and smearing photographs of Navi Pillay.
Look at where they both are now.

It's actually like Israelis implicating a Palestinian on anti-semitism charges by rage-baiting them wrt religion but instead of Israelis they are Sinhalese+Sri Lankan Moors, and instead of Palestinian they have Eelam Tamil. It was all a targetted organised campaign.
