Life / Teenage Pregnancy in Poland [108]


No, no it doesn't. However it does presuppose that families taking care of/supporting family members will work much better and over a longer duration than the ridiculous notion of calling on "the government" to do such things.

Life / Teenage Pregnancy in Poland [108]

^Absolutely Not!
Families must focus on younger people and keep the government OUT OF FAMILY LIFE!
Shut your mouth, calling for government to tell people how to live- they can't even manage the affairs they're mandated to at present.

that's a bit of a joke imo. Families should be managing teen pregnancy, not federal administrations- a sign of the direction people are allowing things to go, I guess:(

how many doctors would agree to sterilize a 16 year old if the kid asked them to? Kids seem to be much less emotionally mature than they were even just one generation ago. It ain't gonna happen but I still wonder at your thinking. Oh well, to each his own...

Life / Poland needs more immigrants and their children - which nationalities are the best? [518]


I did not write that weather and geographical area are the sole reasons for cultural similarities; you've simply misinterpreted the point.
Manitobans and Minnesotans are similar due to geography and weather because ethnicity, language, popular culture, standard of living and religion are already so similar. Because those things are so similar, you will find the bordering State and Provincial populations to be more similar than the northern border state populations are to the the southern ones. I thought this was common knowledge.

However you will find Poles to be more similar to Germans than to e.g. Greeks and you will find Poles and Germans to have closer bonds goegraphically and in terms of weather so there is something to say for those factors whether you are able to acknowledge it or not.


It's like for some Canadians, a lot of their identity is that they aren't American, and if they didn't tell you in as loud a voice as possible, you'd never know.

Life / Poland needs more immigrants and their children - which nationalities are the best? [518]

Yes and no.
A lot of Canadians are very very similar to Americans in many more ways than they are different. It's more a question of geography than nationality with a lot of the U.S. and Canada. Minnesotans and and Manitobans are very similar in a lot of ways perhaps moreso than Minnesotans and Georgians or Manitobans and Quebecois.


that's kind of what I was getting at with your "rock n roll" example. How that element of culture actually gets expressed in daily life in the U.S. is something pretty hard to define. Overall though, I think I see what you're getting at.

History / Which countries are Polands friends, which are Polands enemies? [75]


How did you do that? Where did you do that?


No, why would you ask such a ridiculous question in response (unless such licenses do exist, then accept my apology) to a perfectly resonable one?

Life / Poland needs more immigrants and their children - which nationalities are the best? [518]

There is but it's not what you make it out to be.
When you write that American culture is rock'n roll, what do you mean by that exactly?


Obviously there is a question, why do you feel "there is no question?"
Here are some questions for you:
Are there no unemployed people in Poland?
Have all Poles stopped feeling the need to move abroad in order to make enough to move out of their parents' homes or raise a family on their own?

Are Poles all doing so well and there's a shortage of man-power despite fair conditions and attractive offers?

If the answer to any of those is "no" then that means Poles need to ensure Poland is better for Poles first and then worry about others. Why is this concept so difficult for seemingly intelligent people to digest?

News / POLAND RATED TOP 10 MOST UNDERRATED COUNTRY [13]

Most people I've heard reflect on their trip to Poland have not been very overwhelmed with the place. Their biggest complaint? How dirty it was/is.

History / Which countries are Polands friends, which are Polands enemies? [75]

Countries aren't people- a person can like or dislike another person whereas the millions of people of one country usually don't know enough about the millions of people from another country to be able to make the same informed conclusion.

If you want to say most people in Poland don't like people from country x (or vice versa) then do so because as it stands your thread makes no real sense. It's a dumbed down way of trying to communicate something.

I also must ask, what the heck is the point of your question? What conclusions are you hoping to find and how would those be of any use to you?

Again, I reiterate, countries aren't people, speaking and writing as though they are reflects poorly on the thought one puts into an argument.

Travel / Driving in Poland, are there any rules at all? [149]


So you're willing to risk other people's lives for your own "fun?"
Seriously, grab a pair and try that routine off public roadways; go do it with others who need that kind of rush and you won't be endangering anyone else's children.


Wow, you get a little offended when someone makes an observation about you?
Let me see, I read something somewhat related...what was it? Ah, yes: "If you can't take the heat, stay out of the kitchen."

Travel / Driving in Poland, are there any rules at all? [149]

kondzior
It's not a kitchen and you're supposed to stay cool on the road.

Your attitude is possibly the most dangerous of all. What's that, you're a skilled driver? Whoop-dee-fcukning-doo.

All you need is to be driving along at (let me guess here) 170km/hr or more and you've already created conditions for a major accident. You see, you're often not alone on the road:

People can get distracted
People can be tired
Animals can run onto the road
Vehicles can and do malfunction on the road

All these things go from minor accidents to situations where people get killed because some fool (that could be you in this case) is MORE important than everyone else and hasn't the balls to do really dangerous stuff on his own time when it's his a$$ and his a$$ only that has to pay the price when things go tits up.

That's the problem with the world today, everyone's a superhero behind their wheel and a cowardly old woman on their own.

^a secret sect that has been working religiously away from public scrutiny for thousands of years. Their goal? To corrupt everyone and thus entrap everyone i.e. no one will expose them because most everyone they have sought to corrupt has given in, the rest perished. This is common knowledge, isn't it?

And this leads us back to the original post and all the noise it has generated.

When immigration becomes a necessity then that is PROOF POSITIVE that inequality and exploitation is happening. Welcoming this reality is, in a sense, welcoming inequality and exploitation.

Why don't people there rise up against such corruption? Well they do, but unfortunately they get put down, in fact any body who has ever been an honest candidate or rebel for equality has been put down- it's almost like there's a vested interest in maintaining the situation there.

Fair enough. But what about my question:

UK, Ireland / Are Polish people importing a new wave of ancient racism into the UK? [402]


Well they may not understand your opinion as they may disagree with the reasoning you've used to get to your opinion, but that's a maybe.

What I really wanted to comment on is your use of the words "hatred" and "racism" together. It's more of a question really, if racism is a type of hatred based on a pseudo-science, could you define how that hatred is manifested and or expressed? How do you decide what qualifies as hatred and not only that but hatred based on racism and what doesn't qualify as one of those two things? Is there a qualitative way to measure this or are we drifting towards pseudo-science?

Life / Poland needs more immigrants and their children - which nationalities are the best? [518]


It is not bad, I agree. However, I again must emphasize that it IS BAD when people feel they have no choice to improve their lives other than leaving the place they were born. The immigration that occurs on a large scale today is due to very bad conditions in many places, that has to be addressed before the conditions find their way into the place where you live.

While being a welcoming person may be a nice ideal, perhaps being critical of why things are so is a more pragmatic alternative.

While that was a well meant post, it ignores some painfully evident truths and perhaps is a bit sad because of that. You really believe what you've written and appear oblivious to the facts. I've used your post for inspiration, it really was well written but have changed the perspective from examining the exception to presenting the cold reality:

I know someone that was born in a 3rd world country. He went to study in Canada in the 90s. He dropped out and got involved with a local ethnic gang, becoming an expert on the practical application of smuggling and human trafficking. He was caught but given a lenient sentence, and he received offers from several lawyers willing to argue why deporting him is against his rights. They were not concerned with past, his victims nor were they concerned with what effect he and people like him have had on their host community, only his skin colour and how that could be used to line their own pockets.This is how the US gets the worstt human capital. Do we see Russia needing to go going out of her way to recruit outstanding students from other countries? No we don't, because they have a tougher and stricter education system and that is why the US always loses the race to develop many more quality local students (have you seen where the U.S. places in education statistics?), and that is why they are getting worse every year.

In today's day and age, relying on immigration to maintain your standard of living, culture and progress is the first step to throwing out your culture, standard of living, values and progress.

with very precious minerals mined by exploited Africans, in exploited Africa



And that's the problem, when so many people are exploited, they're going to want to get out. The solution is to do what's right and improve life for people there not just pretend colour is the deciding issue- it isn't.

Who profits the most from their sh*tastic existence? Well white people do mainly.
Was it my decision to rape Africans of their history and land? No, but some people did make those decisions, however they haven't had to deal with any problems and pains that come with a multicultural society, the common person does. Meanwhile those same people keep getting richer and people in poor countries still keep getting treated worse than most people's dogs in the west.

How are going to change that?
First thing you've got to do is identify the real source of the problem.

Food for thought:
Where did Algebra originate?
Where would our butts be now without that invention?
Does that mean we go around bowing down to every Iranian or Iraqi we meet because "they" invented it?
Or does it mean we try to remember how unspecial we are simply due to where we were born and our skin colour?
