We Continue the Change – Democratic Bulgaria PP-DB, a center right, liberal, pro-EU and self declared Atlanticists party has taken credit for the recent (and future) protests.

PP-DB had controversies earlier this year on corruption allegations that saw PP co-leader Kiril Petkov resign as MP despite being an anti-corruption party.

PP-DB also has notable ties with the Movement for Rights and Freedoms who advocates for minority rights and is headed by a controversial Delyan Peevski.

I can see why some Bulgarians are saying these protests are irrelevant.

A party which has a controversial history, with controversial 'allies', which had a shot at governing and was criticized for corruption and ineptitude -- came out and promoted a protest for a no confidence vote which would give it a shot at increasing its influence.

The elephants in the room (people like kovachki) are not even discussed.

Israeli-developed "zero-click" spyware, known as "Sherlock," infects smartphones via online ads, requiring no user interaction. Developed by Insanet and sold with Israeli government approval, it exploits online ad networks’ real-time bidding process to deliver malware instantly before a webpage even loads. The spyware grants full access to devices, including cameras, microphones, chats, emails, and GPS. Security experts say there's no defense against this type of attack. Insanet’s technology is restricted to Western nations, though at least one non-democratic country has bought it. This threat is separate from the well-known Pegasus spyware by NSO Group, which also uses zero-click exploits. Additionally, ironSource, another Israeli firm, has been linked to intrusive adware on Samsung phones.

The disconnect between what is published by paid analysts and what the reality is on the ground is something that always baffles me.

Step outside in any of these countries and you'll get two groups of people. Retirees (+60) and families (+30 w/ 1 or 2 children)

The average age in Bosnia, Serbia and Macedonia is between 38 - 43.

This means boomers are at minimum 10% of the population and maximum 20%. When they die off in the next 10 years, they will leave behind assets to the next of kin in most circumstances.

Even if somehow the EU and the US get vaporized tomorrow - the region will truck on as it is because nobody gives a shit nor has the energy to give a shit. The only region that has some sort of disposable demographic is Kosovo since the average age is 30. Even then, it's limited.

Why? Because people are more concerned with their immediate bubble: work, family, rest. Until the region's demographic landscape recovers where countries have expendable men; nothing will happen.

P.S. Dayton isn't even a long-term commitment. It's a short term treaty that has expired long ago and people are following it because they just don't give a fuck.

For years, the drums beat, for years nothing happened. Yet, you still choose to listen to the people that utter empty promises.

Running theme in the Balkans: "Niggers listening to Jews"

🇬🇷 - Greek farmers block cargo truck traffic and major roads between Athens and the rest of the country as well as roads connecting Greece to its neighbor countries.

They demand more subsidies from the government as well as payments of delayed subsidies that the government owes them. Cite inflation and increase in global prices as the reason for demanding increased support.

Direct EU investment in specific physical facilities through funds like the Asylum, Migration and Integration Fund (AMIF) has included committed funding of approximately €276 million for new centers on the Greek islands, €36 million for centers in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and smaller grants for urgent needs in Greece and Kosovo, totaling several hundred million euros in facility investments alone.

Broader EU migration management funds have allocated billions more:

The AMIF provided around €2.4 billion in emergency assistance between 2014-2020, and the EU Facility for Refugees in Turkey mobilized €6 billion.

Complementing this are significant member state costs, such as Italy's estimated nearly €1 billion over five years for its bilateral processing centers in Albania, or the UK's annual operational cost estimate of £1.67 billion for asylum seeker accommodation in 2024 alone.

Future spending is set to increase substantially; the current EU budget allocates €22.7 billion for migration and border management until 2027, with the European Commission proposing to potentially triple this funding for the 2028-2034 period, reaching up to an estimated €81 billion across relevant funds.

Furthermore, the new Migration Pact introduces a minimum €20,000 per rejected asylum seeker fee for member states opting out of hosting migrants to those that have migrant hubs, creating another mechanism for significant financial bribery to the overall system.

Here's how this breaks down -- local news gets dominated with fear, uncertainty and death. Behind the scenes the elites have already made a pact to accept Europe's bribes to take in migrants in order to offload the trash they took in starting from 2012.

In exchange, the elites in the Balkans promise to keep things as-is without rocking the boat too much. You get your occasional protest, strike, corruption scandal because you can't create uncertainty without it.

The elites stuff their pockets and your community gets overrun with Mohammed and Akhbar from Syria, Afghanistan, etc. but sure - go and protest with a One Piece flag like you're going to change the world.

As I said: "Niggers listening to Jews"

🇷🇴 - Liberal and Romanian president's ally, Ciprian Ciucu, won Bucharest mayoral race, gathering 36% of the vote.

Far-right candidate finished second with 22%, while the race's social democratic frontrunner only placed third.
