News / Mass immigration to Poland - article and response [479]

Good point, but could it not also be argued that as an entire generation has now grown up without apartheid, shouldn't the culture developed under apartheid be less pronounced amongst the younger generation? Just like people on here often blame Polish people for "being that way" because of Communism, while no-one under 25 can really understand what life under Communism was like.

Fair question.

When i was in SA years after apartheid, I saw a complete disproportionate distribution of wealth between blacks and whites.
I met some young black SAfricans who were well educated and got on with it.
When you look at the statistics it is shocking how much murder, rape and other crimes but it does go hand in hand with poverty.

Comparing SA's fall of Apartheid and Poland's fall of communism is not an accurate similarity.
There are huge differences and ongoing struggles in SA that eclipse what is happening in Poland today.
Also the remanence of communism is still very visible in Poland.

White kids are the most privileged in SA and all live in gated accommodation with their families.

It is certainly not true that all white kids live in gated communities.
But gated communities are popular and not very many black people live in them, truth be told.

I should mention that I loved South Africa, I wanted to move there and it was only luck that I ended up in Poland instead.

Do white South Africans rape as much as black South Africans?

There is a huge cultural difference between White SA and Black SA.
Perhaps you have heard about apartheid (wiki)?
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/South_Africa_under_apartheid

And yes, rape is a huge and disturbing problem in SA but it is a cultural difference not a white/black difference.

I have travelled around SA and a few surrounding countries.

Explain to me why there are no developing countries in Europe? Explain to me why "all" developing countries are inhabitted by people of colour?

I would really love you to read Guns, Germs, and Steel.
It is a really good book and if you are sincere about your questions, you will enjoy it.

, South Africa has the highest number of rapes / gang rapes in the world - is that just a coincidence that its inhabited by blacks? Women in Pakistan and India are subject to gang rapes and family rapes (as punishment) in this day and age...these men do not get punished...is that just a coincidence that they happen to be none European and not white?

You make it sound like white Europeans never raped anyone.

Have I said I don't like muslims? I dont like their sick religion.

You seem to be unaware of who you hate, which I find typical of people who hate.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muslim]Muslim (Wiki)

Some fanatical islamists decided to call wine water and drink it.

Is that a loophole? :)

they encountered completely different attitudes here

I can imagine.
It is crazy to cut yourself off from the world, the way that North Korea do but hey! it's their country.
It was similar in Lithuania when it was the U.S.S.R., they didn't even have freedom of movement in the country.
You had to get permission to go to the country side from the city and visa versa.
Except for Siberia, that seemed an easy enough place to go to, one way for a lot of people of course.

you could come to wonderfuk Peoples Democratic Republic of North Korea where we have no such problems, immigrations of every aspect strict controlled!

I think that is a wonderful idea for people who do not want immigrants, emigrate to wonderfuk Peoples Democratic Republic of North Korea:)

I just don't want POland to be like...

Perhaps it would help if you told the class your link to Poland.
You have made it very clear to all of us that you hate Muslims, so now perhaps you can tell us something else about yourself.

If you're asking me questions pertaining to dating black men

Heavens no, I would never ask, a lady such as yourself, such a debase question as to enquire in to any romantic experiences you may have had.

But I like the way you think :)

Yes, they do run faster than white men.

Thank you, I thought I heard that somewhere.

"nemeckiy schet" (German count) is the same as "to go Dutch" in the US)

In the Netherlands we use the expression "to go American" for the same thing :)

In Ireland we call "Irish coffee", just "coffee" :)

That's a Polish magazine cover, isn't it?

Yep, mistake Doh!

Well...I dunno about that....behind Merkel you can see the title of the polish magazin Wprost.

So it is a Polish stereotype of Germans for the potato cover on the German magazine.

Ja gut, but the topic was about german stereotypes not of polish fantasies!

Edit...
And who said it was only a Polish fantasy? eeeewwwww.

They say a picture tells a thousand words but they were not thinking of German efficiency when they said that.

Didn't you see THE TOWEL!!! uhoh

I recognise that accent and that expression.

Sorry about all that BB, you know the way it is...

And now your average German kid.

My goodness, That kid is popping his top.

Yeah, and Germans have a temper.

Ah they are all bark and no bite.

It is nice to see the different cultures assembling on a Spanish beach...
the Germans getting up sometime when everyone else is going to sleep to put their towels on deck chairs.
Somehow a German thinks his towel turns into a flag of some kind when abroad, giving him exclusive rights to these public deck chairs.
Then some hung over man (no names cough) stretches out down the beach. The only thing he wants to hear is the sound of the ocean.

Then some nasty piece of work, Ze Deutsch man, DEMANDS HIZ CHAIR!!!, you can see the vains bulging out of his forehead as you wonder what the hell he is talking about. Ze ToweLL! Ze ToweLL, it iz MINE! now you go!

Having a hangover from hell and not wanting to deal with this you reach around and find that in fact some inconsiderate dope did put his towel underneath you.

And with one swift moment you have pulled the thing from under you and set it free in to the air flying down the beach.

The last thing you hear just before you turn your back on him is "Now you GO GET MY TOWEL!!", once turned fully around you hear some curses being efficiently muttered and trailing off the direction of the towel.

And then you hear the waves lapping again and all is well with the universe :)

Great, then you will not require an answer from me :)

You can't back your arguments up, so you resort to slander, so there you have it Bolek.

Real Estate / IS IT A GOOD TIME TO INVEST IN POLISH REAL ESTATE? [83]

interesting point is that why you don't see may for sale boards displayed in front of homes

Because people do not put 'for sale' signs in front of their houses or flats here in Poland.
You know that already because you live here.
So hear anything round the office Bolek?

erafawef

Now that is an indicator and its just not happening here'in Poland.
Good point Bolek but completely wrong assessment, you really shouldn't hang around the water-cooler eavesdropping so much, you only get half the story that way.

I see you can keep your arguments at a level which says everything about you...

I see you can quite easily change from being one poster to another meanwhile defending your bogus claims all the time...Claritaslux.

But there is oversupply for next 2 - 3 years. Mine opinion is: buying now equals to freeze capital... But that is just an opinion...

For apartments in city centres but not for housing.

Life / Polish and Slavic Art [48]

A rough translation of 'Czwórka' is 'The four' as in the four horses pulling the carriage in the painting.
This word is no longer in use probably due to the advent of the automobile.

Life / Animal Rights Movements in Poland [56]

This one is a she

How do you know?

My friend who lives in Drawsko often has the forest rangers coming to her farm to collect fallen apples that are put in the forest for the animals..

They give information on the radio, here in Poland, not to feed wild animals unless it is a particularly cold winter.
Of course your friend is a ranger and therefore should know what he is doing.
The idea, I believe, is to prevent wild animals from seeing humans as a source of food, that creates it's own problems.

female deer laying in the grass about 20 feet from my room window...

Nice but does he have the correct permission to be on your property?
They can hardly expect rights if they have not got the correct documentation, which they can easily obtain in the ministry for information and they can fill out forms 11/B through to 45/N and just need it stamped by their local law enforcement agency, a witness to prove they are the animal they claim to be, 7 passport photo signed on the back (remember to use the same signature they used on their passport) and then just wait as we process your information at the ministry of digestion and then we will simply need a blood, urine and hoof print before the mandatory 6 month decision time, which can of course be prolonged for any number of reasons.
