I think you just said that because someone planted a seed decades ago.



Kinda funny why you have left out your mates in your criticism and early morning life lesson.




You’re just one of the deeping thinking hard working seven dwarfs mate.

There are like 100 members on here of which I'd consider mates and only maybe 3 or 4 i find annoying.
You are in the minority.

You decided to mention me in your post. You knew what you were doing. Once again, you love to drive a wedge and then spend the day wondering why all this happened.

I see you.

My late Father in Law used to refer to some people as “big serbs”. They were people who took there balkan politics very seriously. They saw themselves as nationalists and saw themselves as “little russians”.
Was he more of a pro-Royalist or a Tito-era Yugoslav? My grandfather was a Chetnik, while my wife’s family were Partisans. They actually fought side by side to drive out the Nazis, but once the Germans were defeated, they turned on each other.

It’s a shame Yugoslavia ended up under Communism, but then again, if it hadn’t, I might have stayed in a Royalist Yugoslavia and missed out on living in the greatest country on earth.

Honestly, early on when I started dating his daughter their best friends lived in Campsie. She was a Bosnian Serb and he was Croatian. Something happened re: Serbia vs Croatia politics and they had a falling out. The friends from Campsie suddenly dropped them because of what was happening over there in the 90s and it broke my FILs heart. It made him sick and tired of it all.

One thing he would repeat to me often was that Balkan people in Australia are much stronger with politics than actual people he knew back home.

I agree. Some of the chest-beating here in Australia is downright ridiculous. My late father always taught me to judge a man by his character first, not by his background.

I guess it is easier to be a tough guy on the other side of the world in a first world country rather than in a war zone

Yes because I don't take your political posts seriously. You basically just bag Trump and the Liberal party. Rinse and repeat.
I find Gary posts probably the most neutral which makes me think he is worth listening to. And I made a statement.
Unfortunately you don't seem to be able to handle the truth.
That's just your ego
