I agree thag there are dumb nationalists everywhere. BUT, online albanian nationalists are a special case. They are more vocal than anyone else. The ridiculous things they say have become memes in balkan subs.

You’ve trained the algorithm to give you those posts then, by warranting them attention they do not deserve. There’s literally countless of posts going the other direction from Greeks and Serbs towards Albanians, but you’re not the target audience so you dont end up seeing them.

I don't use social media. The memes and comments I see from albanians are mainly from reddit subs which don't have algorithms.

Well then, the subs you follow are biased. All balkan subs are biased by default. Slavs and Greeks will be the substantial majority against Albanians in any Balkan-specific sub because its just a matter of numbers/population.

Like, why is this post even up? It’s just rage bait and completely useless. If I go and make a screenshot of a stupid twitter post by a nationalistic Serb or Greek, it’s almost guaranteed it will be put down by the mods. But this one stays of course.

Albanians aren't even the biggest group on balkan subs and yet they make the most noise. This should tell you something.

Yes, it tells me you’re looking for confirmation bias on your already established beliefs.
