@NZARK0123 @univerz_io @e_fragkos @velopky And when someone asks you to prove it, you can't.

@NevenaNikolova7 @southeil_agatha @e_fragkos @velopky We don't have anything to hide. My ancestors went VOLUNTARILY to Macedonia from Crete just to kick you out. It's our history, accomplishments and we are proud.

@univerz_io @e_fragkos @velopky Your existence is a falsification of Greek history and identity. Don't demand respect when you disrespect.

@ToniSalami92 @e_fragkos @velopky Pontics are more Macedonian than you

When an ancient Greek statue is colourized realistically, you basically see a person no different than a modern Cretan or Cypriot.

Adding realistic skin texture on the face of the statue of Hercules.

The Farnese Hercules is an ancient statue of Hercules made in the early third century AD and signed by Glykon, who is otherwise unknown; he was an Athenian but he may have worked in Rome. Like many other Ancient Roman sculptures it is a copy or version of a much older Greek original that was well known, in this case a bronze by Lysippos (or one of his circle) that would have been made in the fourth century BC.

According to the Greek philosopher Dicaearchus, Heracles was square-built, muscular, dark (μέλανα), hook-nosed, with brownish-amber eyes and long hair. Pseudo-Apollodorus adds that "his body measured four cubits, and he flashed a gleam of fire from his eyes", while the poet Pindar describes him as "of stature short, but dauntless soul". In art, he is usually shown with short, curly hair, a thick neck, a projecting lower forehead, broad shoulders, and strongly developed arms, chest, and legs, as in the Farnese Hercules

@Sa1ntKnox @biscoticha @grok You narrate this as a tragic event, but even in your text you basically admit that Greeks are behind everything remarkable in your land. Just thank the Greeks for everything you have and stop crying.

@MetaxasTopGuy @Kervvvvy Μην αστειεύεσαι με αυτούς. Μην τους δίνεις δικαίωμα. Έχουν κόμπλεξ κατωτερότητας. Έχεις μια τάση να τους αντιμετωπίζεις σαν ανθρώπους.

[History of Greece @hellas_history]

@MetaxasTopGuy @Kervvvvy Ναι αυτό γιατί είναι πρόβλημα? Πώς έπρεπε να είναι δηλαδή?

@MetaxasTopGuy @Kervvvvy Είσαι Έλληνας εσύ?

@TSami6129 @Kervvvvy Did you cure your inferiority complex and insecurity now barbarian?

[History of Greece @hellas_history]

@itshoter @HeraldOfRome @MetaxasTopGuy @Kervvvvy Colour labels are dumb. We don't identify as European or White or Asian or Brown. Making fun of skin colour is a projection of inferiority complexes. White Europeans and Turks were barely homo sapiens when brown Greeks were the most advanced people of their time

@Dora_dIstria @philosofveritas @EvaTrifoni The leading author has clarified millions of times to illiterates like you that the genetic study couldn't determine neither the origin of your language nor the formation of Albanian ethnic identity. @philosofveritas reading is completely correct.

@Chigeorge72 @makedonien_mk @iosif_lazaridis Don't bother. She knows the truth. I've asked her so many times to disprove the "Greek nationalist theories" and she ends up running away.

@makedonien_mk @rrr_der7397 A Korean knows your history better than you.

[History of Greece @hellas_history]

@makedonien_mk @rrr_der7397 Even Koreans make fun of you. Your stupidity has reached the corners of the world.

Alexander I of Macedon was Indeed a "Philhellene".
Agesilaus of Sparta was called a Philhellene, as are
Plato's ideal leaders of Greek states.
A Philhellene was a Greek Nationalist, who wasn't confined to his regional identity.
Exactly the opposite from what Skopjans think.

@massedonian @BenchDiaries The fact that you lost every debate on history is funny too, but I won't post tweets every hour to show people your inability to defend yourself.

[History of Greece @hellas_history]

@massedonian @BenchDiaries There is nothing wrong with clarifying misconceptions about my own history. Especially when your country's official historiography is just an attack and distortion of Greek antiquity.

[History of Greece @hellas_history]

@massedonian @BenchDiaries You know very well that I always reply to your brain dead posts about Greek history. Making fun of a nation won't help the fact that you can't defend your views. It just cures your embarrassment and inferiority complexes.
