History / Communism, was it the best form of government Poland ever had? [68]

Facts are facts, even though you might find them uncomfortable. The economic state of the second republic, the huge unemployment, the hyperinflation, the instability (a coup d'état and the assassination of a premier) are facts.

You simply do not known what you are talking about.

And yes, the inquisition did torture people.

Myths crazy progressive leftie people believe in.

In corruption, instability and economic mismanagement.

Fact have it otherwise.

There's not one shred of evidence of that and all indications (given the comparative states of the countries when both were independent) suggests otherwise.

Sure there is a common sense to go by it. Sure there is no evidence as for most of what if scenarios.

Unless they were torturing you to death.

The Inquisition did not do tortures and have been progressive at the time.
Sure some things should be debated in a thread - Myths crazy progressive leftie people believe in.

Who's talking about balancing things? Life isn't as simplistic as that. Judging the achievements of socialism by the evils of the Stalin years is like judging Christianity by the Inquisition,

Let put it otherwise. If not for the Soviet occupation of Poland this country would be on par with France when it comes to economy or so near that it wouldn't make a difference.

Problem with foreigners is that they do not feel Poland and most of them do not feel Polish history. For example you PF foreign experts on Polish history have a go at Sanacja. When in fact Sanacja was a government that can be compared to Socialist governments in France. Sure there were some significant differences due to differences in circumferences both internal and external between those two countries and their respective histories but bottom line is that it was in its core a French like version of a Socialist state.

You simply do not known what you (you self appointed experts) are talking about, going more by your prejudice than by the research.
Poland have made tremendous progress in all things before the war. In comparison the present state is only squandering social, natural, moral and any other capital you can think off.

the current Catholic Child Abuse Terror

You are living in your fantasy land regardless.

the Inquisition,

There were nothing wrong with the Inquisition and Protestant countries burned more witches per capita than Catholic countries.

You'll never know.

Boo ho!

A certain sector of society likes to underestimate the support for the left as well as the even larger support (that has existed for centuries) for progress, liberalism and change.

You are mixing different orders. Soviet occupation of Poland had nothing to do support for liberalism and progress. It was a brutal extermination of Polish elite coupled with the most terrible and disgusting terror.

If you don't know that you know nothing.

For the record, I've 'survived' rather longer than 'a week' in places round the world where the inhabitants would have regarded the PRL as a land of freedom and abundance.

Would that be that you survived as an outsider?

And thousands of Poles died in order for there to be a communist Poland

A what? Stop spreading Soviet propaganda here.

It fu*ked up Polish economy

If you mean by making a majority of Polish factories to produce parts to tanks and planes I would agree.

people's mentality

I got a feeling that you have something else in mind than I.

everything Poles did was great and wonderful (as long as it didn't have anything to do with nobility), there was only one line and hence - Poles have problems with dealing with their history.

What the hell are you talking about? It was them who stared that mentality of apologizing for everything. There were few thing that put emphasis on and the rest were skewed as to be belittled including the fact that our ancient lands stolen by Soviets have been presented as not really Polish and an economical burden.

What problems do you have in mind?

- I grew up in one room apartment - living in one room with my bother, mum and my dad.

Really? I grew up in a house and never meet anyone without an apartment.

If you complain about Poland now, you probably wouldn't stand a week.

That is a good point, jon wouldn't be able to survive a week unless he would agree to work for UB and grass on his friends.

That economy was simply unsustainable.

That economy was aimed at producing weaponry and not much else beside.

People with left-wing views are the traditional electorate of SLD.

People who were privileged and who supported that system during PRL are the traditional electorate of SLD. Few idiots with left-wing views are also voting that party.

it's kinda crazy to tell Poles that communism (actually socialism), was the best form of government,

That is a British thingee after all Kim P didn't become a traitor for money.

Love / Polish women betrayal [38]

A homogenous population such as the one in Poland would benefit greatly from more genetic variety.

That is a assessment commonly made by the people who have no clue about biology and Poland. Importing other races to Poland for the sake of that alleged improvement is a logical fallacy made by faulty minds guided or rather misguided by the false ideology.

I just took a look at Maxim's 2013 "most sexiest women" and it's funny how most of the women on the list are mixed.

In this case it seem to be driven by the fantasy world of filthy and depraved mind deeply injured by a prnography and all kind of sick stuff produced for some deeply unhappy and sick individuals.

Love / Polish women betrayal [38]

I have witnessed many more couples of Polish women dating or marrying non-Polish men than Polish men dating or marrying non-Polish women.

If true it could be due to the fact that the ratio between men and women in Poland is still in favor of the former.

why the Polish government hounded Jews who lived outside Poland

To give them medal? I qestion your choice of words, they asked for extraditing knowing pretty well that it will not be granted, it was a show.

I would be grateful if you would stop implying all sort of things which are not true. By the way since when they become Jews? According to the definition you were promoting here, they were Poles weren't they?

If not that there is something fishy with your defension.
Last but not lest, they were criminals, bloody murderers and them being Jews or Martians shouldn't shield them from the court. Interesting that both Britain and Israel choice to shield that scum. I wonder why.

Unpatriotic Commie Jew is the label for all those who don't turn a blind eye.

What about a Soviet Pole?

Polish non-governmental watchdogs say incidents of racially-motivated violence are increasing,

Well milky what kind of whacky radical commie fringe you calling from?

Makes no difference, does it. Your time in Poland was under that system too.

Sure it makes a difference. Are you claiming that family home do not influence children? Hey, next time when we are talking issues I will be getting personal as well. I don't care but I remember that you don't like it.

Everybody else says I'm a capitalist.

Modern commie is not about economy but about culture, so called gays right, women right, majority right, PC and all - typical commie mussing and ideology cut to fit it all.

It is not about right or anything, its build on a pure illogical nonsense, its about tools to turn society into clay social engineer can model into somebody's utopian society.#

An opinion based on fact. It's where she's from.

what fact? the she was born there? Means nothing, she doesn't belong, she is not culturally or emotionally connected to Poland, possibly to PRL Soviet Poland.

I applaud her comments.

You can applaud what you want it dean;t matter. The fact is that you applause her comment because you are a commie like her.

If you think that Poland atmosphere is stiffing and not liberal enough for your liking move along to the place that will be closer to your ideal. Funnily enough you prefer Poland.

Better than blind praise that nobody really believes.

I'm not praising Poland, I do criticize current politics very often or politicians and yet you are defending them, you are inconsistency which is typical for ideologically driven people.

Even Norman Davis has made this comparison in God's Playground.

Norman Davis is not inflatable, his book i maybe good for ignorant English speaking world to learn first things about Poland but is not the holly writ.

critics.

I'm criticizing all the time current establishment in Poland and none call me commie, a Jew or anything like that, you are making things up.

I wouldn't waste my breath on the church tbh, nothing but enforcers of OCD and herd behavior.

You are cheer-leading for those who do.

Explain? Please!!!lol

In 1944 when Soviet Union stated to instal their Soviet order on Polish lands controlled by the Red Army they planted here about 200 000 to 300 000 people very loosely or not at all connected to Poland. Including people who never were Polish citizens, Russians, people from ethnic minorities in per-war Poland, all kind of petty criminals and a few traitors and cowardly nobodies. Most of them have been given new names and new stories. They have been criminal apparatus who hand in hand with NKVD divisions in Poland have been murdering Polish heroes proven in fight against Germans and all what was per-war elite. Her father before the war was a communist (V-column) during the war was in the Red Army and after the war as communist was fighting propaganda war against Polish Underground. Her mother was also deeply involved in the official Communist propaganda and working in Soviet radio and press actively collaborating with Soviet occupation of Poland.

She is a person fanatically obsessed with anti-religious and anti- patriotic phobias. However she thinks that for the Jews "tribal instinct" should be the most important.

As I said she is typical person I call a Soviet Pole, one whose cultural connection with Poland is controversial at best and in my opinion is non existent.

even if you are from a country like Ireland which in many ways had a similar history.

On a surface, to be honest Polish history is nothing like Irish history.

Funny how anyone Polish who is critical of the establishment/elite or inwardness of Poland are accused of being Jewish or communist and if your a foreigner you are accused of being an arrogant westerner

Who is critical of establishment? So far people you are talking about and likes of you are barking at the Church, traditions and that what is left from the national pride. Typical commie repertoire. She is a Soviet Pole. Let me put it plainly to you, you are Irish right? So her parents have been planted in Poland by Soviets, have you heard about planted settlers in Ireland?

On this forum most westerners are arrogant or ignorant. Probably those who are not do not post here leading enjoyable life in Poland.
By the way what do you mean by inwardness?

yeah, it's kinda sad that a Pole (she is) is talking so bad about her own country. Hating politics is one thing and degrading your country, is another.

All he know is Poland under Soviet Occupation, her parents were fighting against independent Poland and wanted to change Poland into another Soviet republic with the help of bayonets of the Red Army. She is a product of that environment 4ner, fighting against religion, the church, tradition and values that is all contusion of her parents fight. You cannot even call her Polish in the cultural sense of the world. Those people were carpetbaggers of the Soviet advance in Europe.

Today The only difference is that all that red shyte comes from the west this time, as ideology and PC is all the same Trotskyism BS. That the reason that she can be regarded as some kind of artist cause she spit on religion and tradition.

As I said she is Soviet Poles and her words carry less importance than a fart of a donkey.

She'll have the Nazi flash mobs barking and farting at her now.

Hey are you yet another moniker of that sobieski dude? the same shyte the same stupidity.

Well...she does have a point. Compared to western Europe, Poland is rather anti-Semitic, xenophobic,

Well, how do you know troll? Reading press or/and PF? Poland is not more xenophobic that western Europe I would say is much less as it goes.

As For anti-Semitic are you Jewish? If not what is your issue? Mind your own businesses .

In the meantime, I hope a sensible government for business will annul this stupid holiday and let us all earn a crust.

If your business cannot make it without few day that it is already dead crappy business.
If those workers cannot earn their living without working those three days or what not days - that means they were in crappy job being exploited by a greedy scumbag.

I mean in middle ages were their life depended on their agriculture and such they could afford to have holidays and now with all that technology and stuff people have to work everyday to make needs end there is something wrong with those businesses and those jobs and crappy windbags like Doug.
