Provocation for being Macedonian - Personal Experiences

[Risto the Great]

Didn’t you know?
In Greece, we never call it Macedonia, or Republic of Macedonia, or Former Yugoslavian Republic of Macedonia. The latter is used only in an official manner in public circumstances (by politicians, anchormen etc) but it’s way too long.
In everyday conversations most Greeks will call it Skopje or FYROM. Personally, my natural tendency is rather to call it Skopje.
If a politician or commentator is against Greece’s policy on the name dispute will probably use emphasis and call it Republic of Macedonia.

In amongst all that rubbish, he is saying he never calls it Macedonia. I am yet to believe typical Greek participation on this forum ever amounts to anything useful.

[Daskalot]

Well, no. But I'll be damn if this question means anything.

We do not care what RACIST Greeks like yourself call us or our nation. Thank you for letting us know that most Greeks are like you i.e. RACIST; "In everyday conversations most Greeks will call it Skopje or FYROM."

We do not need RACISTS Greek übermenschen like yourself here.

Are all Greeks living in Greece like La Bira?

[The LION will ROAR]

Not going to respond to La bira as his been banned...
It doesn't take much for a greek to really come out in his true colours.. (Racist)

[The LION will ROAR]

A couple of friends of mine were telling me an incident when they visited Lerin in the early 90's, they drove a Macedonian Car over there.. next morning they found their car smashed.. roof smashed in from these greek maggots jumping on it...

And why was this car taggerted..? Macedonian number plates...

A note to our administrators
Thessa/la bira whatever had been on this forum countless times, and been banned a dozen times.
He has admitted he registers under a new user name and spouts the same verbal diarrhea each time he is allowed on here to continue posting.
I am going to request the administrators immediately ban him when he registers here again, am sick and tired of reading his grk propaganda and his personal attacks
so pochit

I've rarely seen any significant number of 'greeks' who are different from the turd, La Bira.

Normality in any society is a matter of relativity and in greece the bar is set very low, the norm is the demented form of racism and fascism of La Bira.

Where are the 'greeks' who stand up against such blatant racism and extreme chauvinism...who was the last 'greek' to come onto this forum who respected a Macedonians identity and self determination.?

[Stojacanec]

People like La Bira must have rocks in their heads if they think they will come here and act like the racist assholes.

But then again these modern greeks set the bar pretty low and don't adhere to a very high standard.

I can understand why they act like spoilt children. Their forefathers ( 1.4 million) were given food clothing and shelter to start their lives in New Greace.

[Bill77]

I basicaly... live in Macedonia, about 350 days a year,

Yes La Bira.......That's right........ the land is Macedonian. Now don't you go changing your mind again in future

so... I can't really visit it, only exit it.

Then on re-entry, you must have one of these,



In your dreams buddy.


(I am aware this racist lier is banned, but he will read it and he will come back in another form, i am sure).

For the record, i personally know more decent Greeks that have no issue calling me Macedonian, than racist ones that do have issues.

Just because we don't see many of these decent types coming on this forum, it does not mean they are not out there. It just means they have no issues, no agenda's, nothing to dispute, therefore nothing to say. Unlike these racist, ultra nationalists that frequent here who do not have anything better to do than to hate and deny us.

Bill, its not a matter of accepting what you would like to call yourself. Its when the lines are crossed and it becomes a matter claiming certain historical inaccuracies (IMO) as fact. This is the threshold when things can get ugly. But your right, on an everyday basis when life is not revolving around people and events 2000 years ago. Everything is usually fine.

[George S.]

look everyone knows what stirring the pot means that's when the govt revs up the propaganda machine & tells you who you are first a greek then a macedonian.But hold on you are not even a greek you are a pontiac /turk.
They are told that they are macedonians simply by being on macedonian soil give me a break.Who is the indigenous macedonians the endopi the original settlers?That is the real macedonians.

[Bill77]

Bill, its not a matter of accepting what you would like to call yourself.

Voltron, its not a case of what i want to be called. I am what i am "Macedonian" regardless if i like it or not. Yes sometimes i feel its a curse being Macedonian, but i have to live with that. But majority of the times i feel its a privilege being one. As certain as i am a Macedonian, its a bigger certainty that these facts are a bigger curse for many of you Greeks, that i am a Macedonian, and you guys will also have to live with this. I am sorry..... but i have no choice in what i am. Blame it on all my ancestors who were born on Macedonian land. who have walked on Macedonian land, breathed Macedonian air, felt being nothing but Macedonians, who eventually were buried on Macedonian land. I along with my ancestors know/knew no other land to be ours.

Its when the lines are crossed and it becomes a matter claiming certain historical inaccuracies (IMO) as fact.

Nothing inaccurate about what i said above.

But your right, on an everyday basis when life is not revolving around people and events 2000 years ago. Everything is usually fine.

I wouldn't be able to trace back my immediate ancestors 2000 years ago.

But here is another certainty and fact. I would be able to trace my ancestors who lived and breathed in Macedonia further back than any Greek walking on this planet can.

Which is why we want Macedonia for the Macedonians. We know no other. Where as for you lot, Its Macedonia for Greece. For us, we glorify Macedonia. Where you guys want it for the glory of Greece.

A greek friend of mine's sister who had married a Macedonian quite a few years back but unfortunately divorced not too long ago leaving 2 kids very young without their dad...today I here that the kids have been RE-CHRISTEN at a greek church were initially they were already christened under a Macedonian Church..
I yet don’t know the full story but I would bet their greek priest had some say in it...

This really boiled by blood.. but not sure whether to question their actions or not..

It boiled your blood that they re-baptised the kids? Was it not a possibility in anyone's mind that a greek and a Macedonian relationship could equal trouble?

Why the hell would you enter any sort of relationship with a greek??? I'm not saying it has to be a Macedonian, but seriously, a greek??? What's wrong with people

[Risto the Great]

I would say the response seems quite normal in conditions of divorce. I am not saying it is right, but it clearly represents a way of attacking the former spouse and probably makes the woman feel better.

TLWR, did you ask your friend about his sister's motivations for doing this?

[The LION will ROAR]

ProMKD I'm afraid it happens too often...just found out today another Macedonian who I know is marrying a greek girl...

RTG, I have not yet spoken to any of them..my mother herd this from their mother who lives up the road.. I'm pretty sure they would not mention it to me..
