You will never replace us, you will never fully own the Macedonian legacy. We will be a thorn in your hairy Turkish ass for eternity.

SUCK IT!

Your countrymen ARE short-sighted idiots, but who isn’t? My countrymen are the same.

Will our cowards win? I can’t remember them giving a fight.
The prefix will have an effect (both domestically and internationally), but I remind you the Prespa Agreements does recognize them as Macedonians (so why wouldn’t they still believe it?).

I think Rainbow Party does approve the Prespa Agreement and tries to see the positive side, but one can never be sure as (for alleged activists) they are not very active. Well said about the people who remember their true roots (language IS revealing), but, sorry to inform you, they are as countless as… pandas.

Who’s willing to replace you? The Prespa Agreement does provide Greece full ownership of ancient Macedonian legacy; this DOES seem to have an effect. For instance, everyone has vanished from this forum, it’s been some time since I last heard of scientific activities the type of Boshevski and Tentov, etc.

Not a single one of my kinsmen who acknowledges the ancient Macedonians as part of their heritage and who passes on that legacy to their family has changed their perspective as a result of the above. All your side has is the signature of a moron who would sell his own daughter for the right price. It may make you feel good, but in the hearts and minds of most Macedonians across the world it means absolutely nothing aside from being an empty gesture by a treacherous politician. Rest assured, all free-thinking Macedonians with even an ounce of patriotism will continue to view the ancient history of our fatherland as part of the overall Macedonian story. Nothing will ever change that, least of all a traitor trying to appease the descendants of settlers from Turkey who arrived in Macedonia less than a century ago.

That's your evidence that it is having an effect? You're a clown. People come and go, the core group remains. When we can be bothered, we will write about it. Frequency will naturally fluctuate when certain topics have been thoroughly discussed in the past. We're not mindlessly programmed the way your ancestors were.

We never really thought such people exist or worried about them. We used to focus on the official policy only.

That doesn’t seem to be the case. While SDSM and Syriza are warmer about the Agreement, no one ever worried that the “unwilling” VMRO and New Democracy will reverse or annul it. That’s because they were never really fanatic or patriotic enough. This is, more or less, the agreement they had been bargaining for decades.

Well, actually the situation here is a bit of your fault too. Sometimes you come back, but you’re basically gone. I often have the sense you’re comfortable with the forum’s death. There are ways to revive it if you’re interested.

Rubbish. The sizeable bunch of racist maggots amongst your lot is obsessed with such people. Your presence here is an example of that. You can falsely claim your focus is solely on official policy, but even that doesn't reflect the complete reality on the ground and it certainly doesn't serve as the standard followed by most Macedonians across the world. On a political level, as far as the two countries are concerned, your side won, for now. On a cultural level, as far as your efforts to disconnect us from our history, your side lost. Forever. It wasn't even in contention. You don't seem to grasp the fact that despite what our treacherous politicians may have promised you, the Macedonians will never forsake their history. You can go anywhere in the world where my people live and most will rightfully regard the ancient Macedonians as part of their heritage and continue to do so. That will never change.

You're confusing politicians with the population in general. Further, you're discounting the thousands of people who live outside of Macedonia and are not represented by such politicians.

I often have the sense you’re comfortable with the forum’s death.

You also have the sense that we don't exist, per your earlier statement among others. Both points are equally moronic. We don't need to have hundreds of people posting on the forum. We have thousands of readers each day. This place remains a wealth of information for Macedonians and others with a desire to learn more about my people. The MTO will never die, unlike the many other forums it has outlasted. That I can guarantee.

There are ways to revive it if you’re interested.

Better the Turkish bullet than the Greek pen.

Amen.

The vast majority of Macedonians even the most fervent supporters of SDS, of Zaev, and even of the Prespa agreement, still don't believe what the Greeks hope they do. They are just being the typical duplicitous morons they always are. They are playing a political game to get something that they want in the end (EU entry). If the Greeks really believe that they convinced everyone to not be Macedonians anymore well then we can sell them a nice tower in Paris. Its short sighted and pathetic in many ways, but its nothing more than a con job on our end.

At least hundreds of thousands if not a couple million. More Macedonians live outside Macedonia than in it, so right of the bat these politicians are not even close to representative of all Macedonians. Then considering SDS only represents about half of Macedonians in Macedonia, of which almost half are not ethnic Macedonians to begin with. So how many Macedonians do these politicians represent? 10%

You can't remember them giving a fight?
Greece objected to name in 1992 at UN
Greek trade embargo 1995
multiple greek vetos on NATO entry over name

ring a bell?

Just remember history wasn't debated at the Prespa Agreement, it was the fear of irredentism.

Agreements come and go, hopefully this will be one of them.

My opinion is the exact opposite. I don’t feel we won in the political side (it’s a compromise with several give and take), but we certainly won in the cultural side of the dispute (concerning Ancient Macedonia as referred in the agreement). I agree with you that the agreement doesn’t cover individual actions/feelings or the work of thinkers, scientists or philosophers but we never really minded about those. Actually, there were times I expected such issues could not be part of the agreement.

No offence, but we don’t see a threat in the diaspora.

I think you should give some space to three or four new moderators/administrators so that there is some functionality. As someone who has been banned and re-registered more than 20 (?) times I can tell that registration of new members does not work fast, or it does not work at all. That explains why we often see new members registered, but they never eventually appear or post here.

The old administrators and the few left contributors (e.g. Carlin and Karposh) could play this role. I can also help, mostly with tidying things up, but as you can see I’m not a contributor, I can only participate in dialogue and provide info.

That’s very optimistic… and cheap.

That is also optimistic. Some Greek nationalists may say the same thing in Greece, but reality proves both of you wrong. The agreement DID pass, it doesn’t seem that it will be annulled in visible future and the politicians behind it DID take the political cost which was not huge.

OK I see what you mean. Most Greeks see these actions as simple pressure, there was a small cost for Greece but we wouldn’t call it a fight or a sacrifice. This also explains why some politicians (e.g. Bakoyianni) believed Greeks would never compromise. There was no carrot at the end of the agreement.

History IS included in the Agreement. The Agreement seems strong for the next decades. You are right, Agreements don’t last for centuries.

You know who you are? So, who are you? Give us the short answer.

To be honest I didn't really know there is such a realistic and believable option. Does VMRO-DPMNE really claim that, are they clear about it?

OK, that doesn’t agree with the Prespa Agreement. It’s not stated clearly, but I guess it implies you were not put by God, but came walking with the Slavic descent.

By the way, since this is a DNA thread, the (uncommented yet) DNA statistics of post#263 DO support your repeatedly stated claim that you are rather linguistically Slavicized and not Slavic in blood.

Actually if your new Government really wanted to annul the Agreement that would be funnily interesting as it would embarrass the new Greek government that also claims to be against it. Theoretically, the Agreement would be easily annulled leading to a status quo ante. Yet, you wouldn’t be in NATO, as your President states in your post at another thread.

Once The Republic Of Macedonia is in NATO and hopefully reverts to it’s rightful name there is no mechanism for it to be kicked out of NATO
