Memories of the Polish communist era

Ignorant people blaming every misfortune in Poland on the communists

I am sick of peopel blaming every single problem on the Communist oppression.
Poland was 'bida i nedza' before the war and there was no communism in place (that is why there was so much support for socialist parties)

Polish people before the war were hungry for socialism. even before that in the 1700's and 1800's when there were dukes and other noblemen who owned whole villages and had the village-people working for them , it was poor and backwards compared to the rest of Europe.

I hate it when all these people complain about the Communist regime, after all it was just only over 40 years. of course there were hard times such as food shortages, a rationing system and so on .... but so what, there was a much harsher rationing system during Occupied Poland and the time where families were expelled from their homes and driven East or men & women taken into labour camps or onto private farms to work as slave labour for German farmers.

So I will say this one more time; STOP COMPLAING ABOUT THE COMMUNIST TIMES.

Ps: countries like the Czech Rep. (czechoslovakia) or Latvia, Hungary , were also communist and they dont cry about this so much and blame all their misfortune on it , yet they are better off now , and it was the same time when the communism fell (or close enough anyway)

Yes you are right, the Czech Republic and Hugary are economically quite good now. Poland and Romania still struggle because their economies are largely built on agriculture I believe?

even the Russians seem more forwards in some terms and dont b_tch so much about the past when they had the socialist system from 1917-1994 (not sure about dates)

Russia is one of the wealthiest countries in the world due to their huge natural resources and business. Of course the people are poor, but still they are proud and not pusseys and dont cry at every opportunity that they're russian and had a hard time for a long period of communism rule.

If anything, communism didnt really break anything. Only the post-communist state which was filled with corruption and lack of responsibility to the nation.

The Polish have a nasty tendency to blame everybody and anything except themselves. They were not happy in Communism and are not happy now.

Disagree...........of course they complain....the Polish nation has been sh!t on for a long, long time, not due to the people themselves, but their kings, nobility, shafting the 95% underclass, and then poor leadership, then the Germans and until a while ago...the Russians.

Its not so much a history as a running tragedy!

But they now have a chance, to better themsleves, their attitudes, their econmy and their standing in the world.......why not take that chance.

PS This has been debated endlessly on other threads.

No, because what Eastern Europe had was not true Communism, it was, as china once said, fascist socialism-mind you, their behaviour is not much better either.

communism

communism 'STINKS' it always has, always will and it's best left in the past..........

It has no place on a 'POLISH FORUM' LOL !!

I notice the originator of this thread has only ever posted in a negative manner about everything else too........

So, this thread needs to go in the WPB !!!!!!!

Care to tell us where did this "true" communism exist then?

It probably never really does for long as human nature is so week. You only have to look at the fickle polish Roman Catholic Church to see what a nasty false vile organization it really is. When I drive through Poland and see all the faithful walking to church I simply laugh and then look the other way.

You like to chage subjects very fast Michal, don't you, eh? That's OK. It would probably be to dificult for you to acknowledge that this communism never worked out and was responsible for more deaths and human misery than any other "movement" in the 20th century.

Maybe another faith would work for you ? How about Muslim or Jewish or do you think the Church of Tw*ts would let you enter ?

Yeah, it seems that Michal is quite obsessed with polish people, innit? I agree with you that he must be a very sad man since he spends so much free time spreading his venom on this forum. Surely, a normal person would find a lot of other things to do. :) But hey, in the name of polish people I forgive him. :)

Thanks to our Russian fellows we'll always be backward country. Instead of taking a deep breath after a war and go on we were forced to get stuck in the sh.t. Don't you ever dare to coplain about our complaints since they are fully justified. From my point of view it's pointless to post such stupid statements by someone who never lived here between '50 and '90. Were you living in poland during this period for at least a year's time?

That's very magnaminous of you Matyjasz....but I don't.

I've told Michal before, if he posts nicely then I shall reply nicely.

He is posting a lot of horrible and nasty comments at the moment, totally unchecked. therefore i will reply back in kind.
I realise he has problems but he shouldn't come on here and be so insulting to Polish people all the time.

t seems that Michal is quite obsessed with polish people, innit?

Yep, innit :)

a very sad man

How true is that !!! lol

Yes, you are right. He shouldn't, but he can. The only thing we can do is just to ignore him. Life’s too short to worry about trolls. Now if only it was so simple. :))

True. :)

But these posts go on the internet for all to see. What does that make us then ? Does it mean by allowing these posts we agree with them ?

I don't wish to be associated with such derogatory postings, my ancestors would be jumping up and down in their graves if i did. And i wouldn't anyway...........it's ingrained in me....

Thing is if you do ignore him ,he thinks he can come back and be even more offensive as we have just seen over the last couple of days..........

This forum is not a closed one and as I said before it gets across the whole web :(

How long does a 'troll' usually last in a forum anyway ?
