Why do Bolgarians dislike Russia so much?

Dislike of Russia is strongly correlated with proximity to Russia, because the surrounding countries are the ones most bombarded by NATO propaganda to try to set up camp on their borders.

The Russian orthodox church is an FSB branch tho.

Idk I'm not Bulgarian but from the ones I talked to they hated Soviets influence which watered the place down. The ugliest part of Bulgaria is the commie blocks.

They had a war (one of many) with the Ottoman empire in the 1870s which lead to the reestablishment of the Bulgarian state. So they've been using this "liberation" as an argument as to why we should always follow Moscow's orders and do everything they want, including give them billions for random projects, etc.
So if you, as a Bulgarian, are not ok with Putin bombing Ukrainian kindergartens, you're ungrateful and also a Nazi or something. It's basically propaganda that works or retarded peasants, of which we have a bunch.
