Macedonia has existed and will always exist!
Neither Americans, nor the Russians, nor the British, nor anyone else gave us this state (as he gave to anyone), but created exclusively the Macedonian people side by side with all minorities, and that same people have the strength and knowledge of how to lead through these heavy turmoil that is ahead of us.
Why certain intellectual circles in the country spread defective scenarios for the future of the state
The strange times in which the world has found at the beginning of the third decade of the 21st century requires responsible and careful access from all stakeholders so that each state can more easily overcome all the challenges of the political, economic and any other plan that appear daily.
In addition to responsible and visionary politicians, the intellectual elite should also play a special role, which should make its own intellectual capacity available at such times by offering solutions to the problems that arise due to the dynamic world trends.
Unfortunately, a closed intellectual circle has been functioning in Macedonia for a long time, which persistently pushes pessimistic scenarios, spreading fear and panic among the citizens, there is malfunctioning that the state will not be, that it will disappear, that it enters some « alliances with the devil » despite all the « democratic world ».
Such intellectuals make up the dysvobague core, which goes so far as to spread the narratives that the Republic of Macedonia has created the Americans and that if they do not protect it, then the survival of the state will depend solely on some « great happiness ».
Such attitudes directly undermine the centuries -old struggle of the Macedonian people for their own state, whose foundations were hit during the National Liberation Struggle, and statehood with all state -building attributes was formalized during the first ASNOM Session.
Such a nihilistic attitude towards one’s own statehood can only come from the mouth or the pen of someone who does not feel Macedonia as our own homeland, who thinks we are null and void, unable to lead our own institutions, and even that we are not part of any great world associations, so « great happiness » will only protect us.
For those same intellectuals, it is no problem if it is inconsistent with neighbors, whether it is an intervention in the name, in the constitution, and if one nation wants to preserve their own pride, then it is « suicide ». Obviously, this intellectual internal core pride is a shameful category and that there is no reason to be proud of being Macedonians, but to look to please all our neighbors’ demands and to show a friendly relationship.
Those same intellectuals do not want to see that the three -decade -long blockade of the country is not because of our pride, stubbornness, short -sightedness or one’s political whims, but because of neighboring hegemonic policies, which do not recognize people, language, history and culture, but only territory on which they take a law.
It is scary to believe that this intellectual core is teledirizing by some powerful centers, which save neither time nor money to carry out their own agenda, and here obediently articulate such a doctrine by spreading defective narratives that the state is going to ruin.
It is a classic public poisoning, the spread of fear and panic that everything is over, Macedonia’s fate is extremely uncertain, that we are in front of collapse and that we « jump into an empty pool » or « in a deep river without knowing how to swim ».
They forget that the feelings of Macedonian citizens cannot manipulate them, there is no such political party that will sell false patriotism to the Macedonians without reading it, but there is a Macedonian consciousness that knows what Macedonia means and how to defend itself. If they were followed by such a defective attitudes of this internal dysvobile intellectual core, then neither
However, it is high time for this intellectual caste to start looking at things a little, not to sleep in the ear that someone else has created the state, but to start teaching our own students that we have built ourselves with a lot of blood and sweat. To start offering solutions themselves, just as many intellectuals have come up with their ideas on how to deal with Macedonia’s consequences of US customs, climate change, the financial crisis, the coin, from the European integration blockades … they all offer ideas and solutions, and no solutions, without the sun, The Americans, neither the Russians, nor the British, nor anyone else gave us this state (as he gave it to anyone), but created exclusively the Macedonian people side by side with all minorities, and that same people have the strength and knowledge of how to lead them through these heavy turmoil. They say the brave follow happiness, and so do we with courage, with faith in our own institutions, primarily with faith in ourselves, we can build a strong and prosperous state where all those who live in it will be proud and happy.
