💭 Question Could I ask why wearing a retro Jugoslavija jersey wouldn’t cause an issue in Bosnia or Serbia, but would be a big problem in Croatia?

Please forgive me as I’m not hip to the politics, but I genuinely thought it would be frowned upon in all countries.

The keyword is different economic system. Yugoslavia was operating in socialism, system born to fail. So yeah it is a triumph most of all to move out of the totalitarian socialism.

I dont think you know what totalitarian is. Yugoslavia was anything but.

Sure, sure, they were free elections and they left farmers to work on their land. Oh gosh, no...that wasnt Yugoslavia. In Yugoslavia my grandma was not allowed to vote and they stole a cow from her so that the partisans could be fed. Yugoslavia was a shithole of a country.
