Mark Mazower is right in that there is usually this teleology that Macedonia was always Greek, or that people were always somehow Greeks. If we consider that they were Hellenized, then we must allow for the fact they became Greeks, and he is right to point out that the process of Hellenization is never fully accounted for.

Salonica: City of Ghosts, by Mark Mazower
4000 years of "greek" history,,, yet the last sentence (as well as many parts of these pages) state that this city was never actually "greek" to begin with. Oh imposter hellenes just deal with the reality that many of your "greek macedonians" looked like this in the 1920's

"Two or three generations passed before they stopped calling themselves 'refugees'" - See T.Ms post above (pp.337, City of Ghosts... by Mark Mazower)
What the "changed street names" (pp.283 last paragraph - see T.M's post above ) testify to is a project to change/alter the natural cultural and ethnic landscape beyond recognition.

As you could see above, the Albanians themselfs admit that 100.000 KOSOVARS were settled down in Macedonia before 1991, but according to them they were not allowed to get the macedonian citizenship.
