History / Question about Post WW2 Polish Jews etc [42]
I don't see anything wrong in keeping paintings with Jews for good luck... and If somebody is really desperately looking for "Polish anti-semitism", he will "find" It no matter what we do.
Really? In my opinion this just plays into the hands of the many that believe another archetypeal stereotype— that all Poles are anit-Semitic.

Nonsense. In most of Europe collaboration governments were helping Gerries to fuck up Jews in organized way, so anybody, who is pointing out Polish antisemitism/Polish collaboration etc. (except specialistic publications devoted to that subject alone) is either a fucking moron or a Polonophobe or both.
One of the chapters posits that while poles commonly broke various rules imposed by the germans.

Post their names and location where they lived before emigrating and we can tell you with +95% probability If they were Polish or German. About the census - maybe she didn't know enough English, so somebody just wrote what was in immigration papers - came from Prussia, so must be "Prussian".

Orginally Prussians were a Baltic tribe (like Lithuanians, Latvians and Estonians) but their country (located where is now Polish Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship and Russian Kaliningrad region) was conquered by Teutonic Knights in the Middle Ages and they were exterminated/Germanized. Later Prussia became the name of the largest and most influencial of German states (as there were many of them before unification in 1870) which occupied parts of Poland as Poland between late 18th century and 1918 didn't exist as an independent country - was partitioned between Russia, Austria-Hungary and Prussia... Most of people living in Prussia were Germans, most of the rest were Poles as some Polish lands belonged to that state...
I have found that Prussia was kind of a mixed race country...

Many people here believe that having this kind of stuff brings good luck in finances. Here are some more: obrazy-galeria.pl/p,pl,40,zyd+liczacy+pieniadze.html
And how many of them are well known abroad now ? One. Wrote by Davis.
GDP of Poland is a few hundred billion $ a year and Poles abroad have billions more. There is no money (either public or private) for such things because few people find It important enough and that's exactly my point.
Not sure what he relevance of posting this picture is?

Than you don't have right to tell us whether we can put our defence system in Kaliningrad region or not. Certainly we can and we should.

History / Question about Post WW2 Polish Jews etc [42]
That's true but Jews worked hard to make that happen. Poles did very little, so now we shouldn't be surprised that others usually don't give a shit about our history. Just look, who is the best known "Polish" historian abroad - Norman Davis, a Welsh guy, that fact alone shows that something is a damn wrong here.
the Jewish survivors of the Holocaust appear to have had a greater voice and been better compensated by the German state than other victim groups such as non-Jewish Poles

History / Question about Post WW2 Polish Jews etc [42]
What do you mean ? Generally most of Jew wealth was generated in America. They dominated some very profitable branches of economy like finances, media or Hollywood and as America was getting richer, so they did. Russia is a different case - many of the richest people in Russia are of Jew origin and generally they just stole ex-state owned assets but they aren't rather treated like "one of their own" by other Jews, so I don't think that their money should be included in the global Jew wealth.
I could never figure out how Jews gain so much wealth post World War II.

Work / Teaching English in Lublin. [23]
Hi.
Easy and quite good way should be local editions of ads sites like gumtree, which looks like doesn't have Lublin section yet but there are similar like: lublin.olx.pl/about.php or electronic edition of newspapers or local ads sites - It took me about 5s to find something like this: lubliniak.pl
It depends If you are a native speaker, on your teaching experience etc. but I think 30-70PLN for 1h of 1:1 lessons and let's say 10-25PLN from each person If there was a group of 4 people.
Your place or client's home. The first one should be a bit cheaper.

There's the "third way" and that's what I think is happening here - don't look at ddicted with compassion, don't help them, spit at them, they will die quickly and others will think twice.
Countries that have managed to reduce the use of street heroin have done it with draconian laws (Singapore, Malaysia) or a very expensive programme

Drugs have been in Poland in large quantities since a really long time, so that's really not a new thing. Poland is also one of the biggest producers of synthetic drugs in the whole world, most is for export but a lot for domestic consumption.
It is my belief that has many return to Poland they will take their desire to use drugs with them

Kashubs were one of groups, which created Poland but later for long time were outside of the mainstream and also under Germanic influence, so now have a bit different culture, customs and seriously different language. Vast majority think about themselves as a sub-group of Poles but some as a separated nationality...

I noticed that some Gerries hide their Gerrism and call themselves Kashubian, Pommeranian, Silesian etc.
50-100k but It's hard to say for how many of them that's really the main language. Even in Kashubia It is something like Irish in Ireland.
? They vote like any other citizens. Why should they have any special rights ?
But Gunter Grass seems a true German to me, doesn`t he? Did he ever consider himself Kashub?
