When a country like Serbia, experiences a social and political crisis, or a society starts showing tendencies, people tend to ask why is it happening and look for a cause, that in their minds, must have a rational explanation. You might not like the answers you get.

Ask your parents why they support Vučić
The Serbian student protesters keep scapegoating the European Union for the problems created by the generations of their parents, who kept electing a paternalist kakistocracy in hopes to make Serbia more like Russia and China, with all the calamities that come with associating with BRICS countries.
Devil summoning of the Serbian electorate and its consequences
New special Eurobarometer survey shows that in the Western Balkans, the support for joining the EU is lowest in Serbia, 33%. The theory and practice of fighting fire with fire by using alt-right kakistocratic ideology to fight the alt-right kakistocracy of Aleksandar Vučić is now coming back to bite the vindictive and shortsighted Heavenly People.
Serbian protests are not a plebiscite
Contrary to the popular belief, the student and civic protesters and the Serbian government are not the only political factors of relevance, despite the efforts, both in Serbia and abroad, to present them as such.
Serbian pro-EU opposition parties and netizens scold the Russian ambassador

Retro review: People’s General
People's General, the weakest representative of the SSI's 5-Stars series, with atrocious graphics and crippled, illogical game mechanics, that the modding community later tried to salvage.
Retro review: Shattered Union
A turn-based strategy that makes the Second American Civil War semi-fun again, Shattered Union will provide some entertainment for two boring afternoons when you have nothing else to play and you just loved the TV series Jericho ang have nightmares about what four more years of MAGA might do to the US.
Myth of the neutrals and other Serbian political fairytales
The student and civic protesters, who represent the third, latest manifestation of Serbian alt-right populist sentiment, following the one that gave rise to Slobodan Milošević in the late 1980s and the second one that returned Aleksandar Vučić to power in 2012, are now getting a dose of reality with the opposition parties taking back the forefront from pro-Russian extremists.
