    Check your facts before you make the video 1. serbia and Bulgaria had an agreement before the war and Serbians were not supposed to go south of a certain predetermined line before the war, north of that line there was a contested zone that the tzar or Russia was supposed to determine border. the Serbians broke the agreement, the whole 100000 soldiers was just an excuse, they were greedy for more land In your video you don't even mention aegean Macedonia, which had Bulgarians on it and Bulgarians were supposed to liberate them but Greeks got there first(Serbia-Bulgaria video I guess) 2. people in Macedonia were Bulgarians and wanted to join Bulgaria, they might have been some greeks and some Albanians but there was like 90% Bulgarians Serbians 1% maybe, serbs and greeks had no right to claim that territory 3. you make it look like Bulgaria did the backstabbing when Bulgaria got backstabbed. they had the most numerous and most militarized army and suffered the biggest losses, pretty much beat the turks themselves and got cheated. the Bulgarians did not backstab Serbia, they went to liberate their people in the 2nd balkan wars 4. the greeks and Serbians got an agreement to go against the Bulgarians just to steal the land and the people on it(many of which who rejected were exiled), also they got together with the turks(which they just fought) and Romanians just to make sure Bulgaria will lose- Second Balkan war 5. tito did not promote the south slavic state he ruined it, that was the reason he got a fall out with Stalin 6. Tito did not crate the identity(he had no choice not to give them their state, since everyone else got a state), the identity was created before, he is responsible of BUGAROFOBIJA, just so Macedonians forget their Bulgarian roots

    Ironically this video didn’t talk about any genetics… the entire Balkans are more or less a mix indigenous paleo-Balkan people and Slavs (with minor elements of Germanic, Celtic, west Asian dna). Some of these concepts are just misunderstood, not really “wild theories” for example the Iranian theory. It’s not that Croats descend from Iranians or Scythians, it’s that a Scythian tribe may have come to dominate a larger group of Slavs who eventually came to also call themselves by the Iranic tribal name. It’s not confirmed by any means but it’s possible. Foreign military classes existed among many unrelated ethnic groups which they gave their names to: Russ, Bulgars, Normans, among them - Serbs and Croats may be the same. As for Albanians considering their heavy paleo Balkan input they probably are mostly descended from Illyrians or whatever tribes existed in or near Albania. North Macedonia are more paleo-Balkan than they are Slavic (60/40 if I recall correctly). And it’s very likely their ancestors mixed a lot with ancient Macedonians, while not being their direct descendants. Likewise the Bulgars, Serbs and others have clear Mediterranean input from the Thraco-Illyrian natives. (Typically around 50%).

    Show me macedonian state, before the end of WWII - I double dare you!!! The simple truth is that those are Bulgarian lands and people, brainwashed by serbs and comumnists during the cold war. The land was Bulgarian up until the end of WWII, when it was taken by stalin and given to yugoslavia. Look at "their" alphabet - mix between Bulgarian and serbian, listen to the language - pure Bulgarian with serbian hints. There are actually documents, showing the orders by Moscow, mandating "creation" of a macedonian "alphabet" in order to obliderate the Bulgarian culture there. After WWII there were genocide against Bulgarians there - those who stood for the truth were killed or displaced, so the remaining were brainswashed for the last 80 years!!!

    Millions of Americans have to work two full time jobs to afford a studio apartment AND go to college full time simultaneously. This leaves them with about 2 hours of sleep every single night, for 4 to 6 years until they can finish their degree and (hopefully) find a single job working for some corporation that will afford them a (very basic) living. It's no wonder why depression, anxiety, pill dependency, and suicidality is so prevalent in America. Completely insane.......

    This is a very dangerous viewpoint. You use highly manipulative tactics to give the viewers an incorrect impression of what capitalism is. Please do your research before jumping to conclusions about what economic model you support. People who study economics will understand why capitalism is the only correct model after learning microeconomics. It is an entirely fair and logical system. Please do your own research guys! Read philosophy, history and economy books and I’m sure you’ll understand. Don’t let a baseless ideology cloud your mind.

    It should be noted that, while this war has been going on, the Ukrainian government has gotten away with attacking and working to crush labor unions, banning opposition parties, taking direct control of the media (and then proceeding to engage in Censorship and put out biased news and disinformation through it), and sold off enormous amounts of state assets at fire-sale prices often to those with connections to the current regime. So, no matter who wins, life is going to continue to get ENORMOUSLY worse for Ukrainians. Russia could suffer a complete and total defeat, and, barring truly extraordinary amounts of foreign aid and a conscious effort to rebuild the Ukrainian labor movement and state assets, the situation would only get much worse for ordinary Ukrainians (no matter what happens with the GDP or average incomes- skewed by all the gains going to Ukrainian Oligarchs and a small Labor Aristocracy necessary to stabilize their rule...)

    Pole here, stating that communism saved eastern europe is from perspective of my country is so delusional, its beyond words. The red army invaded Poland in 1920, 2 years after my country was able to break free from this oppressive regimes, after 123 years of prosecution and destruction of our identity by germans and russians. The have destroyed half of poland and were stopped at the miracle at vistula battle, then after being beaten by Polish forces, they signed a peace agreement in RIga and after just 18 years invaded again with the germans. This invasion lead to Katyn massacre, where red army troops cold bloodedly murdered 22000 Polish army, police and border guard officers. After Polish government escaped to London, Moscow denounced it and after repelling german operation Barbarossa, install a communist government 100% loyal to them. During Germany's retreat, they slaughtered or send to siberia ALL Polish underground fighters and didn't help when Warsaw uprising happened, even though they were literally on the other bank of the river. And when Germany eventually surrendered then literally striped EVERY last one piece of working machinery of every mine, factory or warehouse across all of parts of Germany that Poland was supposed to get after the war (Poland wasn't spared either, but it was not that drastic). This destruction of remaining german industry and taking millions of german soldiers to work in siberian work camps was in Stalin's eyes paying for all of destroyed eastern Europe by Germans, even though Poland didn't get absolutely anything out of that. And I didn't even mentioned the biggest economic sin of soviets. They forced Polish government to reject money from Marshalls Plan. Saying that Communism saved eastern Europe is an insult to all my People that suffered from soviet hand from 1920-1921 and 1939-1989. I didn't even started to mention all of the completely idiotic soviet decisions, like starving ukraine and that the every one Pole that i know who worked in communist years says that literally everybody was stealing absolutely everything and that there was a saying that whether you were standing or lying you would get your wage. Communist organization of work was parody of itself and a festival of dumbest economic decisions of millenia. I could literally write a book about soviet economic absurdism talking to any elderly Polish or other Post-Soviet country citizen.

      human nature is cooperation, unification and love for another. it is not selfishness, isolationism and division. humans have lived communally for most of history.

      @@TheFBI911 Human nature can involve working together and living in groups, but it can also include being selfish and causing conflicts. Throughout history, people have both cooperated and competed, showing a mix of unity and division. While living in communities has been common, individual choices and societal rules can affect how people act, leading to a range of behaviors that include both caring about others and looking out for oneself.

      People choosing to enter a Marriage and cooperate is totally different than people being forced to do the same, that freedom to choose is important to us and is foundational whether or not you think the biblical Adam and Eve was allegorical or literal!!
