The ethnic Macedonians only have one autonym Macedonian They don t want to piss off the Greeks The use of the term to refer to themselves and their language is not an attack on Greeks If it were they would use the autonym Greek not Macedonian And Aegean Macedonia is not necessarily an irredentist term It can be used as such but it is also used just to refer to Macedonia Greece You use the term Greek Macedonia which is considered offensive by ethnic Macedonians because it suggests that that area is Hellenic as opposed to only being under the control jurisdiction of the Greek government And then comes the dispute about whether Macedonia Greece is Hellenic or not Either way if you don t want to be labelled nationalist or don t want to offend either side I propose we use the terms Red team and Blue team to refer to the two groups of Macedonians based on the two flags using the Vergina sun Alex 202 10 89 28
