That is YOUR opinion.

"Tacitus]Poland does not even make it into Germany's too 5."
Hmm.. some time ago I came across data that contradict your claim. Of course I could mistaken here. IF you're correct it doesn't change a thing. Poland can hurt German interest in a way that wouldn't meant out right an economic war.

IF however Germany would want to retaliate, I need to remind you that about two million jobs in Germany are directly linked to Poland. In other words an imminent effect of so called economic war (amongst others) would be two million unemployed in Germany.


Nah dude. I'm the one who stand (if somehow theoretically) for the Polish national interest. You're irrelevant as a person who merged somehow into post-communist culture and mistook it for the Polish culture.


Hmm define little.... I think you are wrong but what can be expected from a leftie with an agenda.

.Oh, Poland can do a lot to pay Germany and France for a favor. I can think about at least four ways to really hurt their business in Poland form the top of my head. Unfortunately PiS is too weak and too dumb to do it.

News / Poland's PiS government falls into its own trap on the issue of disabled children [12]


BS, what are you trying to pull? They are pathetic little fools and everyone see them for what they are. The falling popularity is due to PiS own follies. Mostly it is down to the disparity of between their fiery rhetoric and their timid actions.


Never heard about bonuses? That is standard practise of gov in Poland for the last 30 years. I suppose if all your info comes from TVN or some partisan websites......


Sure. Besides it shows that he is a socialist at heart, no for from his daddy then.

Genealogy / Looking for Wasylkowski family history after moving to the USA from Europe (Poland?) [5]


Dude, theoretically:
A Mexican circa 1839 becomes an American citizens, his children move to California or where have you, they intermarry and so on. Fast forward to 1940 some or other of his progeny moves to well...say to France. Fast forward to 2018, one of his grandchildren post on an American forums, hmm has anyone heard the surname Gonzalez, this surname sounds a bit unusual, I'm wondering if it is actually American.

What would you tell him?
It depend on what you are looking for.
Poland used to be an empire not unlike the US for about 400 years spanning half of the continent and many religions, creeds, races and ethnicities.

Take your pick.

History / A Quote from Polands' Past [11]


Well dude, people are economically clues not only in Poland or not only particularly in Poland. On the other hand who can blame them. Poland's economy is for the most part post-communist economy, if they see taxes are going for benefits of a chosen few they are happy if money are distributed more evenly.

Is that makes an economical sense in the long run - no. Same as it doesn't make sense to keep commie judges in courts or commie officers in the army. It doesn't make any sense to not return all that private property that had been stolen by the Soviet into the hand of the rightful owners.

In short post-colonial, post-communist problems any other society would have the same or similar problems if it would undergone what Poland's people had been through.

Also let not pretend that democracy would work if a ruling class would announce to the plebe what is what and expect them to obey. Well, you might be used that this kind of 'democracy'.


The point in having children is to have them. That is a natural thing for all creature big and small. However no matter how inaptly you put it I get your point and well met Z. You have a point here, the point nobody can deny.

I see it this way - PiS is there to make a way for another force that will actually address fundamental issues of the Polish society, politics and state.

No matter how little they're doing, they at least try to do something for t he country.
THAT is a big step forward.

News / Poland's PiS government falls into its own trap on the issue of disabled children [12]


1.Those are not populist promises (and even if they are, you're missing the point.) PiS is the EU, European socialist party and par per curse they're following other European countries examples with their welfare state policy.

2. Politicians and their promises - are you a child?
3.They policy is chaotic and their are doing very little - that true. However they are doing something at least, matter how badly or imperfectly. Previous governments, especially corrupted to t he core PO were doing nothing except for thievery, opening the country to corruption and selling out Poland's national interest for pat on a shoulder and free rein in suckling taxpayer's money for personal gain.

Let, clear that misunderstanding once for all. Those funds are peanuts. We are talking about a whole country. It is more complex more, more interconnected and more two way street that a simple issue of given grants to an individual or a firm.

Those funds are no charity, it is a compensation to Poland for opening a 40 million market to the EU firms.
Clearly those funds are doing more harm than good.


Because is addicted to those funds like a junkie.
Corruption, behind the scene strong groups of interest are putting pressure on whoever is in charge to keep that pipeline open.


In this case it seems to be one way highway. France and Germany not so long ago introduced laws that curtailed free access to trade and markets for successful Polish companies. Poland should retaliate but as always we are back at the square one - pussies, fools or corrupted scum in charge.

As to being next to Russia. The EU has nothing to do with Poland security and never will . If anything German Russian games are rather detrimental to it.

Travel / Białowieża National Park in Poland [461]


Has no jurisdiction in Poland. No in regard in managing forest, logging and such.


Oh shut up. That founds done more harm and good to Poland. If you look at the overall picture Poland doesn't need that few cents. IF they stop founds, Poland should stop paying in to the EU. Germans, French have much more to loose than Poland if they want to take to blows.

The only issue is here that PiS are pussies and PO are scum that can be bought and sold like a chattel.

News / "It's too late for Germany" (but not for Poland) [1798]


Don't take me wrong here. I'm with you on this. I'm only pointing out something same people often tend to overlook. Their are not scum (and it wasn't scummy behaviour) according to their own culture and its values.

If it was any culture based on a Christian and European values those people would be regarded as scum, dregs of the society. That is not a case in the Muslim Pakistani culture.

Leaf for all those bleeding hears 'liberals' ( neo-Marxist in fact) who claim that there is no inferior and superior cultures.

Other cultures have different values and sensitivities in rather to many issues including their view on children, warfare and such.

If you say so. I mean using you own yard stick that seems to be inequality there so injustices is implied.
I get it. A White male cannot be a victim of oppression, not on your victim list anyhow.

I mean if that would have happened in Poland and there would be a Jew or a Arab in his stead. You wouldn't hastate to scream foul about anti-Semitism or racism. Plus some innuendos.

Yeah, that would be my response minus details.
I would say that both parties are pretty much compromised and toxic hence the cry for a new party to emerge. If Trump will pull through at least few of his key promises he might be the one to do it. that is a big IF...

News / Officials in Poland are hailing an upcoming visit by Donald Trump [720]


Depends what you have in mind. Obama was more into supporting all that PC stuff and propaganda with federal money and legislation.
On the world's stage he was slowly backing out of the USA policy of world's domination.
His domestic policy was divisive in many ways. He also stirred up racial hate. He was for unlimited and uncontrolled emigration and for abortion.
Commies and lefties would love it and did love it.

Bush was more into interested groups but beside taking America to war, here and there, his policies was pretty centrist on most issues.

History / Is there a Western/Eastern divide in Poland like the Northern/Southern divide in Italy? [38]


What a lot of BS!
Medieval civilization was a bunch of primitive and **** poor warring gangs (if not for the CC) on a verge of civilized country such like Byzantium. That changed later. In fact all those preconceptions and points of view switched a few times over centuries.

For exmaple your Germanic world was a poor, divided and plagued by wars and sickness barbaric place where witches were burn on a stake all over the place while Poland had a prosperous thriving empire.

There are too many factors for your simplified homespun theories build in your backyard and full of the Internet wisdom to be anything but BS.

If anything western civilization build on Christianity and its values can be held responsible for many good things. Poland is and had been part of it, End of story.

History / Is there a Western/Eastern divide in Poland like the Northern/Southern divide in Italy? [38]


No one say anything about monolithic. You should think what is that you want to ask. I have answered your question, nothing else and nothing more. Tribes and regionalism are of course there but pretty much in the past.


Why? Practically there is a little difference between them and any other Poles, beside they have more colorful and pronounced regional culture.


My reasoning? You asked if Poles are German or Slavic. what kind of question is that? Poles are no more Slavic that American Are English.

History / Is there a Western/Eastern divide in Poland like the Northern/Southern divide in Italy? [38]


There are Poles, there is no major differences between -western, eastern, southern, northern Poles. There is nothing of the kind you ask. Poles are Polish and Slavic as Americans are Anglo-Saxons.

Italy is kind of artificially build country by the conquest and exploitation of the Kingdom of Napoli by the North, mainly Piedmont, so is not a good example.

Catalans, are just regionalism getting out of hand due to latency of the central gov.
Basques are completely different kettle of fish. Gestuser if you are a kid, you need to learn some more about those issues rather than look for a simplified easy answers.


lol! Just stop it.


What background? You are dropping some hints all over the place like a 'Lady of disrepute' her phone number. Why don't you spell loud and clear what do you mean? Go on grow a pair!

History / Is there a Western/Eastern divide in Poland like the Northern/Southern divide in Italy? [38]


Quite the opposite son, they are not very religious, nor backwoods, they are modernized to your commie standard and hence crime, poverty and all kind of BS is thriving there as opposite to eastern or southern parts of Poland.


No, we cannot. Some culinary aspects maybe some customs but generally Poland is noting like Germany.
There is no strong divisive cultural line in Poland contrary to what some Poles believe.
