Classifieds / Where to Buy Wall Map of Poland Online? [6]

I was going to suggest somewhere in England - not enough time to send probably. Have you tried Amazon Marketplace? They have a lot of maps.

There's also allegro.pl, but again time is short.

News / "We will not hesitate to shoot Kaczyński dead" - KOD Facebook page [164]

...to KOD supporters it will be even more significant.

To democracy supporters it will be massively significant. Not only would it be proof of dirty tricks by Jaro and his gang but a significant step in the fall of PiS. I was going to say the beginning of their fall, but that has been long passed already.

News / TV Trwam to stop cooperating with Duda [17]

Freedom fo speech is also threatend by the PC dictatorship which try to muzzle people

Very ironic indeed that you complain about attempts to muzzle free speech in a thread about the Rydzykists' tv station refusing to cooperate with politicians that offend them.

News / "We will not hesitate to shoot Kaczyński dead" - KOD Facebook page [164]

PiS are terrified because they fear Maidan in the centre of Warsaw

This phrase is key to it all.

Anyone opposing them must be threatened, silenced and dealt with accordingly

Basically very crude. If links can be proven that connect the person who made the false Facebook page with either the PiS flappers or any other organisation the scandal will be huge.

Mods - could you edit the title of this thread?

I second that - the thread title is maliciously mendacious - like so many PiS activists.

News / TV Trwam to stop cooperating with Duda [17]

They're really going into meltdown about it. Nothing catholic at all about their attitude and furthering the case for these vile media outlets to be either closed down by the state or by the Catholic Church

News / Monthly Smolensk Commemorations in Poland! [34]

Lousy, undoubtedly yes, but as a president who died in office some sort of monument is to be expected. A monthly thing is just bizarre and what they actually want is a regular public gathering of their hardcore supporters.

What's also to be expected is that the moherowe berety will be having rallies in front of it. Nothing that Jaro/Macierewicz do is straightforward - they know they won't be in office for long and are using the Smolensk crash now so they've got something to use later.

News / Demonstrations in Poland in defence of democracy. [2554]

I'm particularly looking forward to that one (although I'm having trouble thinking where to go after the protest, at least with the TK there is no shortage of places to go for refreshments afterwards).

I might have a wander down to Jaro's too. Being where it is, it should be heavily policed and therefore orderly. Afterwards, Klubogaleria on ul. Szajnochy is a good bet; they have some interesting bottled beers and it's only a few mins away on foot. That or a wander in the other direction to the place that has all the Czech pivo.

News / Don't let Poland become like my country, France. [630]

Rather the opposite even, Greggs. And they survived and the French are still committed to a secular state. You might also notice the regions where the fascists got most of their first round votes.

News / Don't let Poland become like my country, France. [630]

Let's wait, shall we, until the second round of voting is over; when there's a solid turnout of people who don't want nationalistic forces of darkness. Above all, the French (whether secular, Muslim or any other religion) cherish freedom, equality and brotherhood.

Rather like the better educated and more cosmopolitan elements in Poland.

News / Don't let Poland become like my country, France. [630]

it seems that the Socialists have effectively said to vote for the Republicans there - which they will to make sure that the FN doesn't make larg

Basically tactical voting, so the two decent candidates aren't competing against each other and only one candidate stands against the baddy. Worked quite well last time. Also, last time there was a higher turnout for the second round.

News / Don't let Poland become like my country, France. [630]

No difference at all between them when push comes to shove. Nationalists, fascists, communists, religious fundamentalists. France deserves better and hopefully the second round of voting will sort things out.

the first round of votin

The last time the fascists did well in the first round of an election there, the whole country turned out in the second round to defeat them. We can expect much the same this time.

Feedback / A special "for those living in Poland..." section. [33]

I think if Mods and Admin got their fingers outta their asses and stopped the racism, xenophobia, sexism then the forum would be a better place.

Spot on

I use VPNs all the time and it'd just be an annoyance to turn it on and off and on again just to come here

Same here. Plus I often go outside Poland for short times to do with work. And of course the PF racist trolls probably use them all the time.
