Love / My Gf Cheated Me - a classic Polish girl move? [14]

even after she cheated, even when İm not soooooo bad after I learned this, how can she change now!

You're only hope after you found out she cheated was a display of cold fury as you ordered her out of your life and were unmoved by tears or dramatic scenes.

There's a small chance then she would try to win you back (which you would let her do very, very slowly) but.... you blew it and now the relationship is over.

You signalled to her that you're weak and won't stand up for yourself (which means you wouldn't stand up for her). Not all women think like that by any means, but a certain percentage of women want a man who does not put up with anything (that reassures her that you're capable of protecting her should the need arise). If they don't get that they go on a self-destructive tear. Not your problem.

Move on and don't be such a pathetic weakling in the future.

Just dont get her

She's counting on that.

Im the most normal person in her life as a man. Her other bfs were a.sholes. Beating, cheating, trying to kill her etc etc.

Which is what she wants (but maybe with you as a safe emotional cushion).

I guess she bored with me because

you don't beat her, cheat on her, try to kill her etc that's what she wants, just accept that you can't fix her and move on. And I really, really, really doubt that this started only after three years.

You're not the first guy to fall into the Captain Save-a-ho trap and you won't be the last. But she doesn't see you as anything but as fallback and is incapable of devotion to any man who doesn't treat her like sh1t.

Walk. Away. Remember the warning signs so you don't get played again.

Stay frosty, as they say. Stay. Frosty.

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

a demographic time bomb there most certainly is.

this is why I dont' trust global warming alarmism, I remember beginning the late 1960s and through to the early 1980s (maybe later even) there were books and tv shows and documentaries on the dangers of over-population, now it seems they were all wrong and every country on earth no matter how crowded needs to produce more and more people to keep the neoliberal ponzi scheme going.

Not buying it. The new challenge (in societies that are fast approaching de facto 'post scarcity' status) is how to make an economy work with a declining population and not treating people as interchangeable widgets.

The problem with importing a bunch of culturally alien people to support a generation of senior citizens is.... why would they want to support people so different from them?

Sure, many undoubtedly eat Halal, observe Ramadan and refuse to drink in public alongside Swedish nationals.

So... they're not integrated if they can't socialize with the majority under any but their own terms.

to what extent does Sweden, for that matter any homogeneous society, eventually accept as fellow citizens

Somebody should have thought about that before opening the barn door....

The thing is, Sweden thought that a multicultural Sweden would be exactly like monocultural Sweden but with greater skin tone variety. Instead they have real diversity which means diversity of world view so they have a sizeable minority that believes that

- men and women are not equal,
- casual social interactions between men and women are a sin
- womens' hair is a sexual organ
- government and religion should be intertwined
- the religious beliefs of the rest as not only wrong but actually evil

What basis can there be in common law between traditional Swedish culture and that list?

Somali-descendedyouth having grown in Sweden and speak Swedish as their first primary language, complain

Do they eat traditional Swedish food? Dress like Swedes? Do young Somali-descended women engage in casual social interactions with non-related men? Are they areligious and apathetic about religious practice? Do they graduate universities at comprable rates as the rest of society? Do they have similar levels of violent crime?

News / Poland's "historical path" is that of "fascism" (Jew attack alert) [43]

Wait and see the next time YOU'RE homeless, unemployed or starving.

The state will do nothing for me, so theories that it will are irrelevant to my situation.

Politicians never learn the lessons of history because they're too interested in the lessons of the ballot box.

Studying history and trying to influence policy on that basis are fine pursuits but they run up against a stone wall when the government is alienated from the citizenry (largely now the case in both the US and the EU).

One of the main reason Europe is so split in this question

One of the main reasons that Europe is so split is because everyday people intuit the reality far better than the elites of the EU who are cut off and alienated from the mass of citizenry.

Mainstream muslim values and beliefs about the way societies should be ordered (and the relationship between parents and children, men and women, individuals and religions and religion and the state) are essentially incompatible with mainstream European values. They can't mix - one side has to give in and accept and follow the values of the other. You cannot simultaneously practice gender integration and gender segregation, you cannot simultaneously have government tangled up in and totally separate from religious institutions You cannot simultaneously see women as moral agents and insist that they she could cover their hair or faces in public.

I have no problem with muslim societies ordering themselves as they see fit, but that's why we have separate countries.

You could also argue that there are enough murderers already in Germany, we do not need any additional criminals from Eastern Europe.

Yes and if Germany hadn't supported EU membership for those countries then....

If Germany would do a better job at sorting them out and removing the bad apples

One interesting artcile suggested that Germany has an inherently masochistic migration policy. The idea of vetting migrants and only letting those in with a chance to assimilate and contribute to society seems like cheating - migration is supposed to be a burden or you're not doing it right (according to a certain type of German mentality).

er murderer is from Eastern Europe, ... All of them would be alive if not for those damn foreigners

Here's the thing, there is murderous scum in Europe already. There is absolutely no need to import more. EU citizens who are murderous scum are a problem for the EU, murderous Iraqi or Syrian scum.... shouldn't be and wouldn't be were it not for one feckless leader who has a track record of rash emotion-driven decisions.

"I did somehting. It just happened.

Walk off the lot, if she can't take responsibility she's not long term relationship material and will cheat again if she has the chance. She's chosen the road to vvhoreville, so just wave her on her way.

It's classic vvhore behavior not classic Polish girl behavior.

She is acting like She is proud of it.

She is, she bagged someone she values over you. It's over. Move on.

the Great Depression No. 1 is no longer relevant, Maf??!

No. In the latest economic crisis the EU worked with Germany to offload the burden onto the poorest, most affect countries (and the poorest classes in the wealthy countries). So..... not relevant.

It doesn't matter how true something is, if no one cares or pays attention then it's not relevant.

They only do what we would do too in their shoes...they are fighting for their part of the cake, and why shouldn't they.

Germany is a high social trust state and that social trust is being destroyed by people gaming the system. Social trust is rare and precious and there's no way for a country to achieve prosperity without it and if Germany loses it then it's going to take a big economic hit and end up with a Balkan style economy.

we are not only unable to remove them

Andrew Hammel (good writer in English on German migration law) described the situation of an African (from Cameroon I think) with no legal or moral right to be in Germany who has successfully put off deportation for OVER 15 YEARS! That is just insane and clearly a country like that should not be taking in refugees until it has procedures in place for removing them if the have no legitimate claim to asylum or residence....

e primary obligation of any leader is to assure the native population that the country is on the right track

And that's something no national leader really does well after 10 years (give or take two). The extremely, extremely rare cases where a leader is effective (and a positive for the country) over ten years does not invalidate that general point, Putin, Erodgan, Merkel are all well over the ten year limit.

Her heart's in the right place

Irrelevant. She's been in office too long. The under-over for usefulness as a national leader is 10 years (give or take two). She's well over the limit and an active detriment to her country and the EU.

no longer pragmatic

The things she cares about are simply not relevant in modern Europe anymore than the Maginot line or the long depression.

Germany isn't going anywhere

Agreed, but if Germany wants a leadership position in the EU (which it clearly does) it needs to pay attention to the Europe of today, not the Germany of 1940...

merely a typical example of a knee-jerk reaction to the Nazi period!

She (like the rest of Germany) needs to get the fvck over the Nazi period, Hitler died over 70 years ago.... A nazi obsessed Germany is of no use to Europe.

Some people say the GDR could exist even today if she had all those unhappy citizens just leave...

You could say the same thing about Poland... if getting out of the PRL was relatively cheap and safe then the PRL would probably still exist. Part of the cost of treating emigration as a cure for social ills is that the ills stay in place longer and intensify (see Latin America, especially Mexico).

An equillibrium which would involve better economic prospects for the South

Actually increased prosperity is a main driver of emigration.... people's expectations rise faster than economic conditions can leading to dissatisfaction and larger numbers of people moving. A high percentage of SubSahran African migrants are from Senegal, peaceful and prosperous (by local standards).

there's also the nuclear bomb of African fertility, population of the continent is forecast to increase four fold over the next 100 years... but as good as Africans are at reproducing they're not very good at setting up stable and prosperous societies...

Walls can work to some degree for some period of time but what would work better is a Europe that's more interested in survival than public relations which means the claws are going to come out sooner or later or European culture is finished to be replaced by middle eastern and african cultures (probably at eternal low grade warfare with each other).

The refugee crisis drop off the radar in the coming years

How?

...I rather predict that a merkellless CDU will drop down fast and deep

A Merkelless CDU that goes back to putting the interests of taxpaying German citizens over those of the EU technocrats and a bunch of randos from the Middle East and Africa yes, a Merkelless CDU that tries to carry on her "legacy" will likely go the way of the SPD

Shame is not a good motivator or guide.
Whatever the reason, Germany's current chronic inability to deport people who should not be in Germany is a very good argument against letting vast numbers of people in with the justification "It doesn't matter how many are let in, those who don't deserve to stay will have to leave!" (yes that argument was seriously made).

Suffer how? The media trope about crowds 'hunting' migrants has been shown to be baseless... Neither of the migrants arrested for the death of Daniel Hellig had any legal (or moral) right to be in Germany.

Germany is very incompetent/reluctant to actually deport people no matter how much they deserve deportation (partly because liberal hysterics get the vapors). But one should have been removed to Bulgaria where he had originally applied for asylum and the other should have been deported back to his own country. If they had been removed from German (in accordance with the law) then Daniel Hellig would still be alive and the protests (and media hysteria) would have never happened.

inhabitants of Chemnitz are showing the world

Calm down, they're upset about two migrants with no legal right to be in Germany killing a German citizen (half-Cuban by the way) by stabbing him 25 times!

They expressed that by peacefully demonstrating with the pictures of other Germans killed by the unstable young men that Merkel helped bring into the country.

And handful of neo-nazis joined in (as did some crazy antifa lunatics) and everyone (including you!) is trying to use that as an excuse to ignore migrant crime.

Let the good people of Chemnitz mourn the dead and protest publicly and discuss their concerns... before resentment against a government that cares so little about citizen safety really does explode...

They're not happy about something they're not supposed to care about. That's the problem. What are a few dead Germans when there are millions more middle easterners and Africans that need to be brought to Germany?

not immigrants who refuse to be good Germans, it's the Saxons of East Germany

So "good Germans" according to the Guardian don't get upset at citizens being killed by migrants with no legal or moral grounds for being in the country?

Put aside the nonsense about gangs "hunting" migrants (zero evidence according to the attorney general of Saxony).

You don't care about migrants with no legal or moral grounds for being in a country killing citizens? And you complain about the trivial inconveniences of Poland?

Weird....
