Resistance to the Berlin Treaty, Kresna Uprising - Bulgarian Patriarch Cyrill - 1955 - Published by the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences

Rules of the Macedonian Uprising Committee - 1879

And yet we still have our Bulgarian neighbours claiming Macedonians are actually Bulgarian.

I'm not trying to cause a storm here, just would like to read your opinion on this, and maybe debate...

First, why are you posting in an international sub without translating the document?

Second, what is the argument that you are trying to make here, because I genuinely don't understand.

Perhaps it's that part about "any Macedonian which resists the uprising will be punished"? But I don't see how this conflict with our point of view. "Macedonian" in this context refers to any christian living in Macedonia. If they were ottoman collaborators it is completely normal for the rebels to prosecute them.

Anyone can use google translate like i do.

Being Bulgarian, you exactly know the point I'm trying to make.

It's about a Macedonian uprising, by Macedonians, for Macedonians. And later confirmed by a Bulgarian priest, published by Bulgarian institution.

Claiming Macedonians are Bulgarians influenced by Serbian propaganda or whatever you want to believe, is nonsense confirmed even by your own institutions.

Did I get my point across now?

I am afraid balkan shit-flinging is far too uninteresting to the average European to waste his precious time on translating it.

Did I get my point across now?

Yes, you did. But I fail to see how this documents proves that. It's about the organisation of an uprising in Macedonia, there isn't a mention about "a Macedonian uprising, by Macedonians, for Macedonians"

You know what? It's not my job to debunk all of that fan fiction that Yugoslavia taught to all of you. There is a whole joint commission of historians that know history a lot better than I do to do that for me.

Ah I see... You can't even admit it.

I wonder how does it feel to be so brainwashed.

I think you know best.

You are not seriously going to claim that Dimitar Popgeorgiev was not Bulgarian, are you? Because that would make your claims about the Kresna-Razlog uprising downright reasonable in comparison.

This is a dank meme.

This was well before the Macedonist propaganda in your country imposed the idea that being Macedonia was incompatible with being a Bulgaria. So nice try, but your version of history is still glorified fantasy.

And see here if you want to actually want to educate yourself.

Is using a forged document really the best you can do?
