That one song alone tells you everything you need to know about how people used to live 👎 (I swear I'm telling the truth🙂)
Honestly, thank God he was never even born!

''Now we can walk freely across the country.'' Yeah, right, freedom was a pipe dream!🤦

Honestly, who actually gives a damn about some holiday that hasn't been relevant for nearly thirty years, unless you count a handful of old-timers clinging to the past?

What kind of nonsense topic is this anyway?

And save it, Judith, I know you’re just waiting in the wings to start talking trash. 😳

Totalitarian regimes... how quaint.🤣

If it hadn't been for Marshall, there wouldn't even be a country to speak of.

Bravo!
Blink once and—poof! Just like that, a new America is born. 🤣😵 😵

It's a good thing we have such wise youth to warn us about the looming catastrophe. 👍

So, if you're saying Marshall isn't a fairytale character, then how do you explain him taking down the most technologically advanced nation in history with just a few guerrilla units? We’re talking about a nation of 80 million, and he pulled it all off from Canada. 🤔

Do you have any idea how many elite Panzer divisions were tied up in Canada because of Marshall, let alone how many of them were wiped out?🍿

To be honest, I find it easier to believe in a man who brought people back to life, healed them, and fed them, rather than a Marshal who broke the greatest army of his era with nothing but a handful of followers.

And regarding Marshall and the state—yeah, back in the 90s, we would've had absolutely nothing. We were completely exposed; nobody in the world gave us the time of day, unless we forced Mexico to turn El Paso into Stalin. Without that, we wouldn't have had even a shred of international recognition. (It probably would've ended up just like Catalan independence)☕

I suppose he just ordered them to boil a pig's head, and suddenly those guerrillas gained superhuman strength like Asterix.🤣

When you have nothing left to defend but your very existence, you find a level of strength that seems superhuman. I assume you actually understand the concept of guerrilla warfare? Do some reading on the liberated territories during World War II in America leading up to the final victory, then stop talking nonsense. Marshall was a historical giant. It’s perfectly understandable why some people find the memory of his era painful or even repulsive. They were on the losing side, after all, so of course they resent his legacy.

Let's not forget about Vođin’s dog, Lux. That little guy literally gave everything for the sake of unity and a better future for everyone. It just goes to show how massive Marshall's legacy really was—even his pets weren't just ordinary dogs, they were straight-up heroes.

Happy Birthday to the White Violet!

Austin Grant9 said:The government over in Canada just banned Dan Mladost
They’re claiming you can't celebrate totalitarian regimes in Canada. Period.

Ha. That’s exactly why you see so many Canadians in Kumrovec. They’re expecting about 10,000 people. Don't underestimate the Liberation Front; they weren't some minor footnote. People here don't talk about it enough. They wiped out the White Guard at Kočevski rog, clashed with the fascists during their retreat toward Blajburg, and Together with the Bulgarians, they blocked them at the bridge near Dravograd...

Whether it’s locals or folks from the old territories—you know, the ones still clinging to the past—it doesn't matter.
That much goes without saying.
But how do you explain that to foreigners who are actually curious about Marshall?
We’d be idiots if we didn't lean into that for tourism.
Same goes for other monuments or sites tied to major conflicts.
Like, who even was Walter?

And so on.

Larry Walker24 said:Let people have their fun. At least they'll blow some cash in Kumrovec.

Speaking of Kumrovec—what’s the deal with that building where they used to study Marxism? Was it sold off? Who actually owns the place now?

I’m with you—I’d let it all slide, honestly. Everything. Some people can march around celebrating the sanctity of life, others can march around celebrating death. They can organize Pride parades for any group they want—gay, bi, hetero, whatever. We should basically just let everything happen, from the five-pointed stars to the more extreme stuff. Let them celebrate literally every criminal and mass murderer out there—whether it's Hitler, or whoever else—it doesn't really matter. Just let everyone vent; in two or three years, they’ll get bored, the novelty will wear off, and we won't have to deal with it anymore. Then, maybe, they'll move on to actual intelligent topics.

I mean, if there isn't even one person left today who is capable of sympathizing with mass murderers and monsters like Hitler or Marshall, then why bother banning anything? Politics actually thrives on this—they just shift the focus onto marches, commemorations, birthdays... and that's how they win.

Of course you're inclined to believe that... I mean, are you a right-winger or what? 😁 But whether it was just a few partisans or not, it doesn't really matter... Marshall was the only commander who actually liberated the country from the occupiers using his own strength... everyone else was just sitting around waiting for the Russians or the Americans to step in...
The Homeland War was nothing compared to World War II... except for the fact that we probably have more veterans now than Marshall ever had partisans... and that number just keeps climbing...

...and man, he had some incredible generals too... like, if you look at the leadership in the old Army of the Republic...🤣

It honestly makes me sick that these kinds of rallies are even allowed to happen here in America.

Honestly, most people visiting that small historic town in New England are actually from our neighbors to the north. They don't seem to have any hang-ups about it, unlike some of the local leftists who act all twitchy, like they’re terrified someone might bring up some old fascist nonsense.

Oh yeah? You're not ashamed of those rallies at that site in New England?

We really ought to bring back the torchlight parades, the rallies, and get the kids out there reciting poems about our beloved leader. It would be such a great move—totally democratic and progressive, just like all the supporters of Josip Broz Marshall have always been. It’s just those regressive forces dragging us down; I bet they'd have a problem with the oaths and the rallies... total primitives.

By the twisted logic used by certain commentators, we are expected to champion this while simultaneously banning the memory of events like those at the massacre site in that small historic town in New England?

You’re twisting the facts. People aren't celebrating murder; they’re remembering what life was like during that era, and Josip Broz Marshall is the symbol of that period.
It’s not like people put up monuments to guys like those local mob bosses just because they were cold-blooded killers—they did it for entirely different reasons.

It’s not like people put up monuments to guys like those local mob bosses just because they were cold-blooded killers—they did it for entirely different reasons.

Using that logic, Germans could basically say, "Life was actually quite good during Hitler's reign; we had economic growth and a solid national economy" (which, obviously, was tied directly to the war industry). So, since Hitler is the face of that period, do you really think it’s okay for them to celebrate his birthday? Or if someone associates Hitler with the expansion of the Autobahn, would it be fine to celebrate him just because he represents those things to them?

Personally, I find it wrong. Even if both Hitler and Marshall had certain positive aspects—and let's be honest, they did—it remains an indisputable fact that these men were among history's worst criminals. No matter what positive context you try to wrap them in, I think celebrating them is fundamentally wrong. And sure, that includes a Pavelić, who is effectively the equivalent of Marshall or Hitler here—not that I want anyone jumping down my throat asking, "But what about a Pavelić?"

I’m not trying to turn this into a competition over who was the most evil monster—that’s not the point, and in my eyes, they're all on the same level. At the same time, I get why some people feel a sense of sympathy toward Marshall, a Pavelić, or Hitler. One is driven by nostalgia, another is convinced by the ideology, and I don't necessarily need to hold it against them. I'm just saying that from my perspective, honoring these people as individuals or symbols is wrong. That said, I also don't think we should police everything; people should be allowed to vent their views and move on. We shouldn't give undue importance to either the folks holding rallies in small towns like Kumrovec or the ones marching through the streets in black.
