Neither there nor here

There's a special breed of patriots and savants who thrive especially on Facebook. As a rule, they're brave men hidden behind flag photos on their profiles.

The common denominator: an Albanian that needs a translator and the use of offensive words with the enthusiasm of a teenager who repeats them so that he doesn't forget them. They are self-proclaimed authorities on every topic. They have no time left and live with the Albania of the year they left. Perhaps for them, the clock in their homeland has stopped along with the bus/taxi that took them to the airport. What unites them?

1- Judgment: As supreme judges, for them everything in Albania is a scandal, every decision is a mistake, every politician is a criminal, and every citizen who does not take to the streets for revolution is a captured sheep.

2- Everyone… They have a special fixation with the word “everyone.” Everyone is corrupt, everyone is sold out, everyone is lost, everyone is guilty. Everyone except them, who for mysterious reasons are excluded from this general rule.

3- Nostalgia. They live in the year they left the country, with memories of the "golden times". Everything that has happened since their departure is deformation, misery, destruction, lamentation: "that country is not being made".

4- Virtual heroes: They are the first to post statuses about "Albania" and the last to do something for the country or even to give 5 euros to help someone in need on gofundme. Their patriotic contribution ends when the phone battery drops below 20%, or when the local Wi-Fi does not work.

5- Phobia of return: Always ready to comment that "if only I were there," but in reality they can't cope with the change, the traffic, the cost of living, the media, or themselves here. They live like foreigners in the place they are and feel just as foreign when they return here.

6- Experts in everything: politics at the top, but without excluding politics and the big international game. They know everything better than those who live here, because they "have seen the world with their own eyes."

7- Unintegrated: They have not been able to become part of the society they live in, but they are no longer part of the society they left behind either. They are strangers there and strangers here, great masters of complaining and whining, but they make little or no effort to find their place in the environment they live in.

8- When they come here, to appear different and more knowledgeable, they address their children in the language of the country they come from, “Vieni da zia Zymbyle,” “Vai da zio Mahmut,” “Ella sto papu Kajmak.”

As a Brussels urban legend says: "I've been drinking Brussels water for 20 years!"

And this, apparently, gives you the right to endlessly ponder, to judge everyone, to slander every work, to eternally search for the Albania you left behind, and to remain forever between two worlds: neither there nor here.
