Why not first discuss the most scientific part of my theory, that is the p-value of the k-r pattern in the Croatian river names? If that is right, that gives some credibility to the rest of my theory, including the idea that names of places suggest that the genocide in living memory didn't happen. If the most scientific part of my theory is wrong, that strongly suggests the rest of my theory is also wrong.

How about - no.
Find a Croation linguistics forum, if there is such a thing.

Well, people in the Jezikoslovlje section on forum.hr seem to think that "p-value" is a pseudoscientific buzzword, rather than the basics of modern scientific method. Discussing with them is very frustrating, almost like discussing with Flat-Earthers.

What are you getting from blathering on here about it? Do you not understand that this forum isn't the place for this topic?

You’re using the names of Croatian rivers to deny the Srebrenica genocide?? What are you, fucking stupid?

I was primarily referring to the Vukovar Massacre. I haven't really studied Srebrenica Genocide. On the face of it, it doesn't seem to me that the names of places suggest that Srebrenica Genocide didn't happen. "Srebrenica" means "silver ore", which is presumably exactly what it is. The name "Vukovar", however, can be read as "city of wolves", wolf being a very demonized animal. That name is ironic. And the part of Vukovar where the mass grave supposedly is, it is called "Ovčara". "Ovčara" means "meat from sheep". That name is very ironic.

^Do you understand the difference between a massacre and a genocide? No one calls what happened at Vukovar a genocide.

@ The Grand Nudger , you are calling what happened at Vukovar a genocide, right?
