Fun Fact: Although Nagorno-Karabakh had a majority Armenian population (with significant Azerbaijani minority e.g. in Shusha, Khojaly or Tugh), the lands later claimed and mostly occupied by Armenian seperatists were majority-Azerbaijani with Armenians and some Kurds/Russians being the minority, until the ethnic cleansing of the Azerbaijani Turks and Muslim Kurds in the region.
Before 1988:
Azerbaijani Turks🇦🇿: ca. 538,600 (76,5%)
Armenians🇦🇲: ca. 158,500 (22.5%)
Others (mostly Kurds☀️ and Russians🇷🇺): ca. 6,500 (~1%)

Then they will claim «Qerebaxê me ye» (Qarabağ is Ours, Qerebaxê is Neverlandistan) as they claim our southeast

I don’t think using the Armenian flag for a piece of our territory is appropriate.
Why don’t they just delete this damn post from here?
What are your sources? The territory of NK itself was majority armenian, even by 1989.
The Kurdish presence in the western Karabakh areas was a bullshit myth created by Moscow to establish a buffer zone between Armenia and Armenian-controlled Karabakh cleansed of most its Azerbaijanis. They were never a real presence there and the vast majority of those labeled “Kurds” by Moscow indicated Shiism as their religion and Turkic as their mother tongue lol. It was such a blatantly artificial campaign that they even gave up on this “Red Kurdistan” project forced on locals after a few years. I would be skeptical of even a 1% figure for them in reality. What’s funny is they didn’t try this shit with Lezgi, Avar, Tat, Talysh or some other actual existing minority in Azerbaijan, because part of the main idea was to benefit Armenia and the other to import total outsiders to the region that could be easier controlled by Moscow and used against Azerbaijanis/other Caucasians.
