Ah yes, the most brutal were eastern European, Ukrainian, Polish and Baltic colonies

(Not denying colonialism was and is a fucking disease, just think it's unfair to judge ALL of Europe for it when it is basically exclusively western Europe that did that shit)

Colonialism ia over. The continuing neo-colonialism is the problem.

It's even dumber to blame the Balkans for neo-colonialism.

They can't even colonize their neighbors, and they really really want to.
