Saint Petrograd

Communism fell, Tito was erased a long time ago and Svetozarevo farted in the trash, until recently only Zrenjanin kept the memory of the hateful communism, a town that I thought for a long time, based on the analogy of the sonority, was not named after some revolutionary surname

One of the key features of our famous identity and mentality is undoubtedly the general tendency to get involved in high ass (of all times and colors), in the initial phase excited, and in the terminal phase - as soon as the high ass dies (or as soon as they DIE, if you understand what I mean ) - in the parliamentary wrangling, wrangling recent idols in shit.

And is there a better way, I ask you, to declare love to this or that High Ass than to cross out the name of a Serbian town in love with one stroke of a pen and then name the town after the name of the currently ruling high ass? By changing the name of the town, the residents of the town are sending a letter of love to the high ass, not only orally and by slurping, but topographically and in writing - we are yours, you are ours, send us gift packages!

I lived in one such town for a long time - in a past life called Tito's Užice - so I know what I'm talking about. The "Tito's" in the name of the city obliged the local communist officials, workers and honest intelligentsia to be more Tito en masse than Tito was personally and - that's what I heard at one time - sometimes suited Tito.

Communism fell, Tito was erased a long time ago and Svetozarevo farted in the trash, until recently only Zrenjanin kept the memory of the hateful communism, a town that I, based on the analogy of the sonority, thought for a long time that it was not named after some revolutionary surname, but that it was one from quite a number of Vojvodina toponyms ending in "in" such as Apatin, Petrovaradin, Temerin, etc.

As things stand, it seems that Zrenjanin has also rung its bell because the local authorities - despite a relatively recent referendum in which the citizens rejected the idea - made a unanimous decision to change the name of Zrenjanin to - Petrovgrad.

If our Martian - who has finally returned to his home planet, but Broz will return (the New Year's lights for 2019 are just about to be lit) - had been informed about this - he would have said to the white man: so what, that is another correction of "historical injustice" ", Zrenjanin's real name is returned, but Marsovac (in ignorance) would not be right at all because Zrenjanin's real name is in fact Bečkerek, which apparently sounded too Hungarian to the Serbian ass-pullers "between the two wars" - although it is not, it is older and from the Hungarians - so they made a parliamentary decision to name the town - Petrograd. They must have said this: Our Motherland, Russia, has St. Petersburg, so why shouldn't we at least have Petrograd, bearing in mind, of course, that Peter the Great did not name Petersburg after himself, but after the apostle Peter.

Well, who was Petar, after whom Bečkerek was named, before he changed his name to Zrenjanin? Here's who? In the official historical fictions, he was recorded as the king of Serbia, while in reality it was the ordinance of Major Apis who brought him to the throne by killing his predecessor, cutting him into pieces and throwing him out the window. It was, they say, in the golden age of Serbian democracy.
