How can you compare state invasions and global conflicts (no matter who does it) with a situation of some archaic clanish 50+ men singing and shooting in the air? And they look weird for majority of non-Albanians, believe me, including those non Albos who condemn Russian-Ukrainian war. You're "trying to cross hedgehog with a snake", as we say here by comparing incomparable things.

I guess you also consider Albanian blood feud to be some kind of nice old tradition, we primitives won't understand it. Actually, you can relate people who practice both (blood feud, this singing with shooting)to each other, I'm sure in 95% of cases it's same people, but not urban and civilized Albos living out of clans.

I'm quite critical towards Russians as Russian and I'm not a nationalist, I don't worship our nation, it's full of flaws just like any other one.
That's my quote:
I'm not a nationalist, but I pragmatically transformed my natpatriotism in like pragmatic "belonging to the pack" in a World where other pack will normally destroy your one. I don't think that Russians are some ubermensch and I think that history exists to learn the mistakes of the past, not to venerate it or forefathers. Again I may be not nationalist, but other pack will attack me and my pack with nationalist motivation, so you can't avoid a national factor. Just no need to venerate own nation, history and forefathers, that's just useless. I don't care much what Russians were in some 1457, that's not more than fun to read about these times, I prefer realpolitik out of ideologies and realhistory of the close past. That's why I sympathize Yanks for example. And that's why I see some Ukrainians looking like mental pigmees smelling with garlic, bragging like "they wuz kangz" with some fantasy history of ten centuries ago, with a bottom of my heart I just agree they can take all those kings and queens and other half legendary bullshit which doesn't matter now. For me, the period of Imperial Russia is quite enough to have a strong pragmatic identity out of fantasy and romantic bs.
If I was a papuan or something similar I would prefer to belong to some higher culture, I feel sorry for people who live in a modern World being obsessed with their past, like some cannibal forefathers. Or some Russian neopagans simping for times when their forefathers lived in some goddamn forests as primitive tribes.
