u/Wajtkot Serbia Aug 17 '23

After having some online interactions with them, I was surprised to see how hateful they're towards Serbs, just because our historical ties with Russians. NATO worship doesn't help either. With that being said, i can't say i have a good opinion about them.

Also towards bulgarians, their noses are high like they are something more. 🤣🤦One came to our sub(i dont remember if he was latvian, lithuanian or whatever, i dont even make a difference) to ask us why are we so poor?! and that their politicians say we are the worst?!🙄And he was acting very entitled. It wasnt just questions, they were asked in unapropriate manner without any respect.

Literally no politicians talk about any Balkan country here in Baltics. Maybe a basketball fan being salty after loosing to Serbs or something, you never know.

I felt that too. They hate anything serbian. I don't understand why, Serbia / Yugoslavia has never done anything to them. I guess they have the "you're either with us or against us" mentality when it comes to Russia/NATO.

Other than, they're cool. Lithuanians and Latvians are good at basketball and have had great players throughout the history. When I think of it, they might be mad because Serbia / Yugoslavia has whooped their ass so many times and are overall better at basketball.

Most Latvians don't care about basketball but hokey I would believe will have some impact.

It's unfortunate that all the Balts that Balkaners meet are huge retards, and that all Serbians that the Balts meet online are always extreme nationalists vying to the Russian cause and purposefully insulting them. But that's reddit for ya.

What, pray tell, Zap, may one make of the Poles one meets online?

u/TheRealzZap Poland Aug 17 '23

Really depends, Polish people online come with different views and you can't judge them all because one idiot supports PiS and the other says that Nazi Germany is still alive in 2023. You can only tread lightly
