Bulgaria Myth Perspective

Bulgaria: The ‘Revival Process’ Myth [1984-1989] (6,7,2020)

This has been part of a Turkic ‘Islamo-fascist’ offensive which has seen a ‘pan-Turkish’ nationalism advocating the ‘supremacy’ of the Turkish race and Turkish religion (this is sometimes seen operating in the terrorist attacks carried-out by Uyghurs in China). One ridiculous US-Turkish allegation is that the Bulgarian government ‘forcibly’ tried to inflict Bulgarian names upon ethnic Turks between 1985 – 1989. From a Socialist point of view, this makes no sense whatsoever.  This is so ludicrous that even Wikimedia (which usually has no problems publishing all kinds of US disinformation and anti-intellectualism), has ‘drawn the line’ at the at the ‘Revival Process’ myth and removed the relevant page to a ‘discussion’ section stating that there is a problem with authentication and objectivity! At least this is the case in the Bulgarian-language pages of Wikipedia- which are a mine-field of neo-Nazi glorification, US Disinformation, US anti-intellectualism, US pseudo-history and plain lies. The Turkic people were never oppressed in Socialist Bulgaria (and forced to change their names), but Turkish fascism spreading from Turkey, may have caused minor problems from time to time.  

The Party is the Mother and Leads the Way!

By way of my life circumstance and my professional, academic interests and expertise, I maintain an extensive network of connections with ethnic Chinese people both within and outside China. Not only across the UK, but in other areas such as Taiwan, Singapore and Malaysia. Regardless of economic or political model, there is a common thread of language and culture which links all these living expressions of ‘Chineseness’ together. Chinese people may differ in their socio-economic outlook around the world, but are united in a common ethnic understanding. This reality is no different to any other ethnic group around the world. To ‘study’ China is to study all these distinct strands of the expression of Chinese culture around the world, and recognise a coherent thread running through its core despite any difference that may or may not exist on the surface.
