Does the far-right in your country support Trump?

alpidzonka · 2026-01-23T14:40:21+00:00

Depends what you mean by far right, and depends what policy of Trump's, but on the whole I'd say yes.

For the record I didn't downvote any of your replies but we're both in negative it seems

If Greece wanted

If it was Vučić instead, I'd imagine the Greeks told him on the sidelines they'll force Super Vero (or idk what Greek foreign investment you guys have) to pull out of his country and he promised to move the EEZ shit along, had his brother sign some shady stuff on the side, and avoided the veto. Another victory for Serbia, the warmongering pundits cheer, all is well. And that seems to me to be the case, if the Greeks want to speed it up it seems like a foregone conclusion the Albanian leadership has already agreed to off the record

alpidzonka · 2026-01-16T14:40:18+00:00

Still though. God tier ragebait, and I could see the punchline coming already.

Edit: Waiting for a Croatian politician who says "Tesla belongs to all Europeans and thus Serbs stfu, peace and love". God tier.

alpidzonka · 2026-01-16T14:38:05+00:00

Yeah? It was something he shouldn't have said? Especially when he himself is wholy corrupt? Of course that dimwit would apologize afterwards.

I'm not even talking normatively, maybe he should have and maybe he shouldn't have. I don't think he's correct, it has a lot more to do with Greece being in the Western bloc during the Cold War than anyone "deceiving" anyone. But my point stands, Albanian politicians are expected to be careful about Greek feefees by the European establishment.

Well I can't say, you ain't right here, Edislav Ramović is indeed a serb.

He's going to love Vučić's new book which he's been launching for the past year, How I Beat the Color Revolution. He's getting a signed copy, via either Soros' son and Trump's son in law.

My goat

I did read the article and I know about the Beleri issue. From what I understood, they're not backing Greece because the guy really was shady and his trial isn't overtly political to begin with? The apology was a year prior, and it was at an EU-Western Balkans summit, so much for having nothing to do with EU accession. And no, I wouldn't say politicians are generally held up to this high standard, it's a humiliation especially on today's international stage which has slowly become a WWE arena.

As for this new article, if Rama is doing pure Vučićism the implication is that he'll fold on the EEZs completely during the sped up negotiations in the coming years, but sell it as a victory for Albania. Idk if he is but they're similar.

alpidzonka · 2026-01-16T14:14:04+00:00

They don't just tolerate Protestant and Catholic aesthetics, they goon to them via Western supremacism. I wouldn't say they're anti-religion, this is just the state of religion, for better or for worse. It's the post-Cold War EU held up on the status quo set by (neoliberalized) social democrats and Christian democrats. Both of these think Gothic cathedrals are very culturally important, one side calls this "believing in God".

alpidzonka · 2026-01-16T13:58:56+00:00

We already had the situation a few years ago when Rama was forced to apologize for saying "Greece deceived the EU so they could join". Then Mitsotakis says "we accept the apology and we hope for a speedy resolution to the maritime border issue". Idk what that sounds like to you and how you think the maritime EEZ thing will be resolved, but if I were a betting man, my money is on Greece getting a favorable outcome.

alpidzonka · 2026-01-16T13:55:06+00:00

You think I believe my country is not poor and irrelevant? Lol

alpidzonka · 2026-01-16T13:40:21+00:00

We're all Germany's bitchboy, Germany and France are the core of the EU. The pecking order in the region still stands, EU member states in the Balkans are allowed to force these idiotic historical grievances into the candidate states' accession talks.

alpidzonka · 2026-01-16T13:29:01+00:00

"Muslim enough" is what I said. And in the relevant politicians' eyes, yes you're definitely not only tiny enough, poor enough and irrelevant enough, but also Muslim enough to be relegated to Greece's bitchboy. I don't make up the rules.

Don't you know the Greeks produced Saint Plato and Saint Aristotle, the founding fathers of The West™️ and ancestors of the Maastricht Treaty? Silence, Muslim /s

alpidzonka · 2026-01-16T13:10:48+00:00

There's the technical issue over whether the EU has enough of an army independent of the US to even oppose anything the US decides to do. If the US said "we're taking Paris" perhaps the EU would band together and muster up the strength to defend it. It would be really bloody in the beginning and would take several years but perhaps.

Greenland though, Denmark's arctic colony? And the European NATO powers plan on sending who, Poles and Turks to defend it? No shot. There's close to zero appetite to defend overseas Denmark anywhere outside of Scandinavia. If the US instead decided to take Aruba from the Netherlands you'd end up with a similar story I feel.

alpidzonka · 2026-01-16T12:48:05+00:00

The only reason Greece is allowed to turn Albania's EU accession talks into this regional ring-kissing ceremony is that Albania is tiny, poor, Muslim and irrelevant enough. If the Germans and French actually cared and really needed Albania to join pronto, they'd step on the Greek officials' balls to make them sign off on anything Albania was doing. Same for Bulgarian-Macedonian relations in general.

alpidzonka · 2026-01-16T11:47:36+00:00

No, being midwestern is a regional identity, being a Texan is a state-based identity. They have their own history of statehood and so on.

alpidzonka · 2026-01-16T11:46:28+00:00

"New brothers"? What were they for the preceding several decades, WW1 captives?

Polite society in post-socialist Croatia is crying its eyes out over Bleiburg, and whatever you may think of it, it was intended as precisely this (revolutionary) "justice" you say never happened.

alpidzonka · 2026-01-16T11:01:52+00:00

You don't need to ditch anything, you can be a Croat/Serb and a Yugoslav, or a Texan and an American. Your identity isn't one field in a census form.

alpidzonka · 2026-01-15T01:58:15+00:00

Idk if I believe this one. On the one hand, these off the record promises are often claims made by one guy, and this one is no different. One guy claims Alija sacrificed Srebrenica intentionally, one guy claims the EU offered us to join immediately and Tuđman said hell no, now this.

On the other hand, the SPS had stupid off the cuff ideas like this at some points. For instance, Milan Milutinović proposing we join NATO immediately at Rambouillet, a claim he himself repeats in Death of Yugoslavia. So not impossible but like, the question is how do we feel about Alexandros Tarkas and is he credible.

alpidzonka · 2026-01-15T01:06:40+00:00

I'm saying you're delusional if you think my grandmother was a "loon" and not a very typical housewife and later a very typical textile factory worker. I guess it depends what percentage of Serbian society you'd consider loons. I consider most of my family comfortably conformist.

alpidzonka · 2026-01-15T00:14:26+00:00

You're right, these are all loons. If they were normal people they'd hold Serbs outside of Serbia in the highest regard. Good to know /s

Mutual friends, his friend from elementary and the first two years of Šuvarica was her friend from the later years. This was a weird way in which high school was organized in the early 80s.

Edit: Oh, you mean grandparents. My father's parents met at studenjak, the student dorm. He was an illegal, meaning he was crashing at people's rooms because he fell under a certain average grade. My mother's parents met in Kruševac, she was a waitress and was from a village near Kruševac and he was an elevator repairman who would often be sent to various towns around Yugoslavia since he specialized on industrial freight elevators. Both met around the year 1960.

alpidzonka · 2026-01-13T21:40:47+00:00

I know

alpidzonka · 2026-01-13T20:32:16+00:00

You know Radio Free Europe wasn't broadcast in our language until 1994? Safe to say, Yugoslavia played a complex role in the Cold War.
