Hypothesis: Bosnians are more similar to Serbs then to Croats culturally?

[Mortimer]

Because of the music, dance, food etc. and also identity because Bosnians see themselves as Balkans but Croats are offended when you say they belong to the Balkans? At least on Tiktok I see Bosnians with Serbian or ExJu music who say #Balkan in tags. I haven't seen a Croatian who does that. What is your opinion?

My opinion is that you generalize a whole group of people and we have too much of useless boring threads like this, sorry.

Yes, much closer to Serbs culturally. And also to Turks, lot more than Orthodox Christian Balkanites.

They have something in common with turks culturally, but i think they do not identify as "turks" i see bosnians around who identify "as yugos" but croats are offended by the term "yugo"

They used to identify as Turks, but this was long time ago. They are generally a identity less bunch, a sad remnant of Muslim occupation of Europe.

Indeed Croats don't identify as Yugo, it basically means subhuman.

Yugo doesnt mean subhuman. Why would yugo mean subhuman?

Maybe now, that some hate it, and say so but back then it was cool

Why would any historical ethnicity use term of failed communist state?

"Yugo" meant illiterate physical laborer in north/west Europe, like parents of Zlatan Ibrahimović.
Now it usually means Balkan criminal gangs from Serbia/Kosovo in EU.

yugoslavia existed also before communism. as kingdom of yugoslavia. maybe it is unpopular now, but it wasnt always. that yugo means criminal is something someone else would say, not something yugos say. it is a generalisation like that muslim means terrorist for example. it is stupid to say so.
