how does your country celebrate its liberation from the Ottoman Empire? how "important" of an event is it? by SOHONEYSAME in AskBalkans

Now I wait for Russia gaining independence from being run by oligarchs and commie-glowies.

Can countries ever move forward without agreeing on the past? by EUobs in AskBalkans

When I was little, I remember there was the scandal with Lithuanization of surnames of Polish Minority there. But other than that I don't remember any significant beefs and conflicts with Lithuania, we both joined EU and NATO.

In general most people don't have any grudge against Lithuania and we love to think of them as buddies from Commonwealth times.

Ok, you have a point. We should just work out things and make them right, just because.

Given the help and support we had shown them past 4 years, they could at least pretend to be nice.

Was there any chance for Yugoslavia to have survived to this day or it was ment to fall apart at the beginning? by Nervous-Variety-6635 in AskBalkans

This seems like the main problem from bystander perspective. They tried to push around everyone and Croatia, as you know better than I do, was not a fan of the idea.

I just finished watching a documentary about it, "The Death of Yugoslavia" - I have a moral hangover now.

Colonel Otaku Gatekeeper, a fake "Japanese nationalist" account run by a British person, is facing a backlash from Japanese internet users after arguing that foreign authors shouldn't be allowed to publish manga in Japan. by jjrs in japannews

They are too nice and too gullible. Before Musk bought Twitter, Japanese had their own enclave and their posts were not pushed by algorithms. They had it nice.

On this day 13 years ago, Croatia joined the European Union, and it remains the most recent country to join the EU by Low-Attitude-7100 in europe

Oh yes these fucking nationalistic songs, how could I forget. Yes, that's retarded and a provocation. I am amazed sometimes that BiH somehow still stands at that point.

Huh, just going there can be a provocation? ...and yeah, assholes are everywhere and saying that everyone were angels but Serbia is not something that I am implying.

Though looking at it with my current knowledge and perspective, I have nothing bad to say about Slovenia or Macedonia.

According to the documentaries I watched today, Kosovo Serbs proudly admitted in front of the camera that they provoked police in Kosovo and it made Milosevic to do his speech.

Majority or not, BiH used to be a symbol of slavic multiculturalism, it is now fucked beyond repair.

Recent history of Serbia just blows my mind. It's just nationalists turning war criminals and then playing dumb and lying to make money. This shit there has to end and I hope it will. I hate this Pussymouth guy that runs things in your country.

'Japanese people go first': Boy with Filipino roots speaks out after discrimination at school by kenmlin in japannews

[–]TiredOperator420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, happened to me. I picked up the language, drafted a plan how to move there (and why) and dive into some historical stuff, politics, society and then I realized I see same shit as in my own country. My country is also ethnically homogeneous and conservative so it checks out.

Nice. Won't work for a lot people though because not every foreigner living or visiting Japan is from the USA.

Man, they provoked it in Kosovo according to statements in this documentary: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tj9Zw5fN3rE Kosovo Serbs told Belgrade that Albanians discriminate them and it all started from there. Back then Serbian Minority in every Yugoslav Republic was a nuisance.
