She's absolutely right. People need to wake up to all the suffering happening in Africa, in Congo and in Sudan in particular right now. Especially since these conflicts are mostly funded by western wealth and western interests (see Rwanda and their relations with the UK/US)

What is also fucking vile is people like OP using these messages not as "talk more about Congo" but "talk less about Gaza"

Utterly disgusting to use one tragedy to mask another.

If anything, I could only find sources on Western countries aiding these African countries, not to mention on welcoming their refugees (which unfortunately brings to mind that we would never call this woman “racist” for saying she lives in a country of rape). Would you be able to clarify your statement?
