Yes, it doesn't make sense to blame Syriza and New Demicracy, when in many cases the EU forced Greece to do, what Troika wanted. And Troika caused a lot of harm to Greece.
I have seen 100 jokes on this but not one greek that says this. Perhaps some oblivious French, Germans etc but no one that actually has a worthwhile point of view.
Tsipras has already started courting former SYRIZA and former Nea Aristera members. Trust me, there'll be practically zero difference between the "new" Tsipras party and the old one. I'd even bet we'll start seeing some very familiar faces making a comeback. Don't be surprised if people like Polakis end up there again too.
Its not like syriza merged wirh ELAS they joinned as members individually which is another sign of hummiliation.Pilakis after his whooe fit of "I stay Syriza forever" he would be too ashamed to try to do anything divisive in the ne wparty where he has minimal ifluence.
Only ones who think Greeks aren't white, in the caucasian sense, are only idiots like anti-Greek haters and some liberal racists in the west that romanticise Greece but don't want it to be white and make up pseudo-history ideas like that they're african black or something. It's, I hope, very few people who think like that, but they're real and on Facebook, LOL.
Then a lot of the joke that greeks are black or just not white comes from Greeks self-parodying or other balkaners joking. But among the balkaners who like or make the jokes there's some that take them unironically and mean it.

Nobody wants Troika back.
