Is Bulgaria really emptying out as a country? I watched a video of a Korean travel youtuber who went there and interviewed zoomers and everyone looks somewhat doomerized but smiling and happy. How can you accept the decline so comfortably?

The entire west is dying/doomed

>>212939956 (OP)
all of balkans are
their whole young population is migrating to european countries

>>212939956 (OP)
Because it used to arguably be the worst white/white adjacent country on earth a mere 25 years ago and is today basically on par with cunts like Greece in terms of living standards and wages

>>212940038
retarded american post
bulgaria is empty because the bulgarians are living in western europe now, Germany has like 10% of the population of Bulgaria living in Germany

But I never see Bulgarian flags whining about their country on this board, so I didn't realize their country was in such a depressing state

>>212942414
this is the average Bulgarian neighborhood in 2025

>>212942414
You saw the same youtube video today that I watched for hours ago lol

>>212942414
They've learned not to care. Aa the great Buddha said, attachment brings suffering or whatever

>everyone looks somewhat doomerized but smiling and happy
that's just how bulgarians are by nature

>>212942414
Bulgaria is a sunny Balkan country, whining is not part of their culture, they're chilled and enjoying life even if it's objectively shit

Kinda based ngl
On the contrary Koreans complain too much

>>212943172
we dont smile

>>212939956 (OP)
the population is expected to increase in 2025 (it was already flat in 2024)

>>212945292
increase with what?

>>212945357
50k migrants in 2024
25% from turkey (probably some bulgarian turks coming back) some emigrants from elsehwhere, ukrainians and i think some syrians

>>212939956 (OP)
korea is even worse what

what I've learned of Bulgaria is that their politics is weird. Like most people dont vote, there is a dead lock there and the vast amount of bulgarians are very chuddish and pro-russian but the politicians are very western aligned

>>212945583
actually bulgaria is worse

>>212945626
>vast amount of bulgarians are very chuddish and pro-russian but the politicians are very western aligned
what sort of an antisemitic trope are you trying to imply here

>>212945652
>LE POPULATION DECLINE IS LE BAD
fuck off

>>212945664
nothing your politics just are like that though I would say this about most Eastern European countries and you just need a match stick to light up the flames

>>212945668
I didn't try to imply that you stupid mongol, it's just that the population decline is much greater in bulgaria than in korea or japan

>>212945626
not really. majority are neutral or dislike russia. maybe 20% like it. the leader of the pro russia nationalist party has 6% approval rating btw

>>212945780
ywnbaw

>>212945780
yeah well Romania used to be pro-EU country

>>212945451
Ukrainians moving to Bulgaria or Romania or other shitholes never cease to amaze me. Mfers got the entire EU handed to them on a silver plate and they chose to move to the places from which natives escape in droves

>>212945827
the dynamic here is different because most people don't care (hence the 30% voter turnout). that's why nationalist parties always fade into obscurity. nationalist rhetoric doesn't work when a good chunk of the population dislikes the country

>>212945975
romania was precisely like that and again it only needed few things happen and the whole population chudded out out of nowhere

you dont realize how big the 2011 eurosceptism wave was for non-post soviet europe and there is that fact that eastern europe was saved from it because you are in a different position in the EU. The more time goes and the bigger chance is that your population chuds out and you have way bigger potential for actual take over than anywhere in western euroep

>>212945975
That's not true, it's because the "nationalist" in question is an antifascist communist who's employing the Duginistic synthesis of left and right to bait the conservatives over to his side so as to denazify them and teach them to hate nationalism by calling everything a fascist. It's a pied piper controlled by GERB. And I get why you would be confused about this, as you forgot to mention that the party that you're speaking of, which has been branded an ultranationalist by wikipedia and other NAFO-adjacent people like you, is actually the only major party in Bulgaria that holds annual antifascist rallies where they yell DEATH TO FASCISM like a cult, more so than the literal antifa of the west.

People do not vote because the majority is nationalistic (since we're an inherently nationalistic society that was resurrected in the age of nationalism by the said nationalism), and there is zero parliamentary representation for that. By design.

>>212946218
the average 'si4kite sa filmari' ganyo is most definitely not a nationalist. maybe look around you and realize where you live

>>212946056
cuz romanians are almost as delusional as poles about this poland superpower thing
bulgarians are just chilling

>>212946406
>the average 'si4kite sa filmari'
Why are they saying this? It's the same as e.g. the nationalist right in the west where they say that people like Meloni are "all controlled opposition". And it's true lol. Nothing changed when she came to power - it only got worse. There is no actual far-right nationalist, as in "we'll shut their lying jewish mouths" type of a far-right, anywhere in the world right now. It is very tightly gatekept. Tighter than even the red scare of the cold war. This is the primary source of power and stability for the 8 decade-long vaimarsko igo.
