USA, Canada / What do Polish people think of the USA [287]

France also has a middle class. There is a middle class in the Netherlands, in Canada, in Portugal, in Poland, the list goes on and on. What's your point?

USA, Canada / What do Polish people think of the USA [287]

If the US did nothing, there would be more incidents like the 9/11.

there is zero percent fact in this statement. I like logic, and there is no logic here:(

Where are the concentration camps?

like plk123 said, what the hell is Guantanmo if not a concentration camp, not to mention the alleged secret CIA jails in Poland? I bet half of the people in guantanamo are there by mistake because G I Joe doesnt know the difference between Hassam Hussein and Husseim Hassam...

Jumping to a false conclusion is embarrasing, but if we can effect some positive change in Iraq, we might still create a net benefit

Randompal loves it when folks talk about a war as if it were a small business opportunity. I hope you're not Polish, because the irony wouldn't be lost on me. Irony as in, Aw **** Hitler murdered a few million Poles but maybe Poland can still be a net benefit...the US has already killed a million Iraqis, many women and their kids, but who cares theyre just stinky muslims!

USA, Canada / American people attitude towards Poles in the USA [98]

you can whitewash others but not me, gringo. Like I said, I lived in America long enough to know exactly what you folks think of Polaks so drop it, we can play this game all night...but you're right, its harmless good fun when Americans tell dumb Polak jokes, and thaTS coming from one of the least politically correct people I know...me;)

USA, Canada / American people attitude towards Poles in the USA [98]

Are you speaking for yourself?

No because I don't worship the Great Satan like many misguided people I know. I lived in America long enough to know the difference between some drunk fool that sputters off some Polak joke just to try to get a laugh and a wink out of you and someone who calls you a dumb Polak with actual venom in their voice just because you said something they didn't particularly like. And I'm not talking about one isolated ******* I came accross at a lame party, I'm talking about many wonderful Americans I have come accross. But I prefer the jokes Germans tell about Poles- I'd rather be jokingly known as thief than a retard.

Did you ever notice that there are jokes about every nation & race in America?

So maybe there are, I was just answering Osiol's question. He asked what Americans think of Poles...

How were Polish people seen in America before the end of Communism?

We were/are seen as stupid dolts, hence the dumb Polak jokes you often hear all over the USA. Not only among the idiots you see standing around the keg at a frat party, but also in the press ( I have seen Polak jokes in Stuff magazine). Maybe we are stupid, we have a habit of worshipping and idolizing the same people who cut us up right to our faces. Pathetic.

Other countries can't do that, except for Canada which borders the US. But they could care less. :)

Probably because they don't need to. Their standard of living is just as high plus they even get free health insurance. Why do you think Poles willingly go to Germany to work, but almost no one from Poland goes to Ukraine or Moldova to work?

Love / Your Thoughts about 20 Year Age Difference Between Men & Women in Poland? [74]

Now, part of me thinks I AM INSANE for thinking about starting all over again here in Poland by getting involved in small business providing accomodations for budget tourists and world travelers here in Poland.

why insane? there are more and more tourists arriving in Poland as time goes on (even Warsaw seems to be crawling with tourists and backpackers lately), if you're going to do it do it soon before the market is flooded..

USA, Canada / What do Polish people think of the USA [287]

Bush, on the other hand, doesn't even have a reason for the Iraq invasion.

He did have a reason. One of them was oil. If you don't believe me, even Alan Greenspan recently came out of the closet and said it publicly. Iraq is a huge oil producer and the first thing the US did after it invaded was secure the Iraqi oil ministry, while Baghdad sank into lawlessness. The oil ministry was immediately privatized and sold off in chunks to BP, Exxon-Mobil, etc. The other reason, of course, is that there are billions if not trillions to be made in reconstructing in rebuilding a country that you have just spent months fcuking up.

Now, if you want some coffee-sipping reading, here are the parallels hinted at:

Before Hitler invaded Poland, he spent weeks moaning in public to the Gemran people about how terrible the Poles and the Polish govt. were, and how terribly the German minority in Poland was being treated (Then on the eve of the invasion, he staged a fake Polish army attack in Gliwice as a pretext for invasion, but I'm sure you knew that already). Sound familiar?

Hitler's officer corps gave their various military operations lofty names such as "Operation Free Europe" "Operation Swift Justice" and other absurdities. Sound familiar?

Polish resistance fighters were refered to as "terrorists" in the German press. Sound familiar?

Most of Hitler's sidekicks and generals had business interests in the military-industrial complex (such as Krupps, IG FARBEN, etc) and they directly profitted by invading countries and then rebuilding them. Cheney, Bush, Rummy, Wolfowitz and company all have stakes in companies that are VERY active in Iraq. Sound familiar?

The parallels go on and on. Hitler, like Bush, had dilusions of grandeur and both men were convinced that they are not only fighting to better their countries, but to better the world. Of course if you are a fan of Reagan or Bush, it doesn't make you a bad person, nor does it make you ignorant or stupid. In a free country you can support whoever you like. In Hitler's Germany, lots of academics, scholars, business leaders and other notables were convinced he was a lovable genius until the Red Army was at their doorsteps. Another future parallel? The dollar is now worth less than the Canadian Loonie and China is America's main creditor. I would worry...

USA, Canada / What do Polish people think of the USA [287]

what do you think of America?

Its a nation started by opportunisitc bankers who took a good (bad) example from other Europeans and smote the natives into submission (American Indians). As a liberal free-market domain it is run by banks and big business, and the will of the people is either disregarded or manipulated so that they themselves don't know what they want (example: healthcare). The women are fat and the men are clueless and arrogant and they love telling dumb-Polak jokes even though most of them couldn't find Poland on the map. (just generalising). Also, interestingly Americans are convinced that they are the only free"democracy" on the face of the Earth and have a duty to spread this good word to the rest of the poor ignorant masses around the globe. But other than that, it's a swell place, great people, but I wouldn't really want to live there.

most Americans want to fight the war on terror

Terror is a tactic not an enemy, and that's not liberal propaganda - it's simple logic, which I am a great fan of. Fighthing a war on terror is like fighting a war against bad haircuts. It's nothing more than an excuse to extend America's power and make a lot of money in the process. A loooooot of money. That's great that some Poles consider themselves "patriots" because Polish troop presence in Iraq gives them a boner. But if you don't see the parallels between the US invasion of Iraq and Hitler's invasion of Poland, then go open a history book (you don't even have to read between the lines...)

Life / Do Polish People steal a lot? [330]

Most people DONT steal if they have an opportunity.

Stealing is one half opportunity and one half desire. Take away the opportunity and presto your stuff is still there, because desire alone doesn't cause break-ins. Can't take away the desire, though...that's just human nature. But looks like Irish just points the finger at the poverty-level scumbags while forgetting all the rich twats who steal (ie, fraud, white collar crimes, etc) not because they need it but because they wallow in gluttony and greed..

Life / What Polish people think about the Italian and Spanish men? [39]

Polish girls think that Spanish and Italian men are just playboys or playboy wanna-bes looking for a quick lay, if you want a brief analysis of conventional wisdoms and stereotypes. And Polish men think that Spanish and Italian men come here to steal our girls...
