@pawian That's the thing, communism made them tainted Poles, not pure Poles. They were as un-Polish as it gets. They had No freedom.
Read up on MBTI- personalities and you will understand how a person can become opposite of who he is when becoming more of a darker mind. Communism does that to people, it corrupts. So don't come here telling me about any "pure" communists cause that's total nonsense
With regard to the expulsions, you should know fairly well that it was a communist reaction to the shift of Israel turning to be more pro-US during their war in the middle east.
If anything, communists should apologize for it regardless of nationality or culture... As repressions towards Jews at that time wasn't excactly a Polish invention.
You can try all you want the two of you but, neither far right extremism or left extremism will ever be representetive of Poland or Polish values
By "Polish values" you mean Catholic values, I take it. As Communism was in essence anti-religion, this handily explains the deep revulsion to Communism by committed, or at least pious, Christians.
With the latter comment, Kaszub1410, I couldn't concur more! Yet boasting about individual achievement alone is scarcely a Polish trait:-) German arrogance outpaces Polish boasting any day of the week.
Communism tried to eliminate individualism in every possible form
It's curious, isn't it - that Communism sprouted up not in the industrial West with its enormous working class, but in the agrarian and backwards East where almost nobody worked in factories.
Also curious, that such an ideology that smothers the individual appeared in a place where individuals have very high opinions of themselves.
Communism was and is a mere construct, posited by a German Jewish intellectual, a philosopher to be more exact, who studied in London, was an economist by trade, and had the time to sit around thinking up abstract concept rather than "working for a living".

Mate, I rarely agree with you lately, but you are spot on here. Communism was a Jewish idea. Made with good intent. But not thought through properly. People need to think. Please pay attention at the back! JR Jim, that means you......
Not in fact a "Jewish idea", but instead, an idea or concept originated coincidentally by a Jew in the figure of Karl Marx, an atheist, incidentally, who had as little use for the practice of Judaism per se as he had for all organized religion.
Head-in-the-clouds academics rarely if ever think through their pie-in-the-sky notions which are as far from reality as one can get! Marx was no exception, nor was Gramsci, Fanon, any of the Utopian idealists of the last century or two.
...aka useful idiots. Idealists and believers are the real threat as no fact-based discussion with them is possible. They will die or kill you before admitting they have been wrong.
Milo, kindly don't lump all Jews into one basket! As with Poles, Germans, generalizations are convenient pegs upon which to hang one's own experience(s), but they're not always accurate.
Rather like judging a country solely or even mostly by her politics, isn't it? I mean, most English are basically honest by nature.
AmaSSing paradoxes of our times. Nazi leader of Israel, Netaniahu, fears coming to Poland for the celebration of death camp Jewish Shoah victims after the Justice Tribunal`s arrest warrant on him for the genocide that Nazi Israelis are perpetrating on Palestinians.
the genocide that Nazi Israelis are perpetrating on Palestinians.
Hey, Nazi Israelis, the world is watching and bearing in mind your genocide on Palestinians. You will burn in Hell for your war crimes. Just like your predecessors, Nazi Germans 70 years ago. Are you aware of it????
Tens of thousands of dead and injured, deliberately attacked hospitals, blocking of essential humanitarian aid and conditions in which it is impossible to live, although there is nowhere to escape - Doctors Without Borders warns in its latest report: genocide is taking place in Gaza. "The wounded lie everywhere, bodies are carried out in plastic bags, the stench of blood is unbearable. There are hundreds of people in the hospital waiting for news about their loved ones injured in the air raids. Bodies in white shrouds lie next to them and in the hospital morgue, an apocalypse reigns in the emergency department. Shocked, pale children, burned, calling for their parents, sometimes unable to scream because of the shock," Karin Huster from the medical staff of Doctors Without Borders in the Gaza Strip tells the authors of the report "Gaza: Life in a Death Trap".
Comparing Israel under Netanyahu with Nazism is downright sick, misguided, indicating a complete and utter disregard for historical truth!
German anti-Jewish resentment and slow-burn, violent hatred of same, stoked above all by Hitler. represented a centuries' long, indeed festering, animosity towards a single group within a society, deemed "different", therefore weaker, by the majority host culture in whose midst the Jews were living for hundreds of years before the Enlightenment.
The situation between Jews and Palestinian Arabs of the Muslim faith is one of singular denial of their Jewish neighbors, the intent of whom, is stated as "to drive Israel into the sea".
The Israeli Jews have no other option than to defend themselves. Had Germany's sizable Jewish population during the Third Reich been even more integrated into German society, hence, with the effective use of firearms, hand-to-hand combat beyond merely that of conscripted service in the First World War, Germany's Jewish citizens would have been able to fight back tooth and nail, applying all the modern weaponry at their disposal.
As this was not the case, Germany's Jewish population appeared to the Nazis to lack the force of strength, an attribute considered more important than any other.
People like to irresponsibly label others as "Nazis", "Faschists" etc.as a knee-jerk, pseudo-liberal response to anything they dislike! Say some high schoolers find their homeroom teacher too strict. "Ahh, Mr.________'s such a fxxxxxxg Faschist... he doesn't like to give us recess!!" etc, ad nauseum.
Israelis are no more Faschist or Nazi than you or I.
Only those Holocaust survivors who experience true dictatorship are entitled to apply such epithets, NOT anybody else!
Once again, "Israeli Nazis" is a vile misnomer, pawian, I'm surpised at you, man! Israel was attacked by the Palestinians first, for whatever reason, Israel was the butt of a rival's vicious onslaught, and needed any expedient within reason in order to fight back, just as with any other nation on earth who has been forced into submission.
The will to survive remains the strongest of all human emotions, don't forget.
Don`t be. The war in Ukraine overthrew all previous agendas. Israelis are modern Nazis and I can`t help it. Remember it is nothing personal. I still respect you. :):):)
You certainly can help it, by not kowtowing to willful ignorance! If you desire to remains so, you will. If you desire to learn from your ignorance, you won't, it's that simple.
If you were 25, you would love to date one of these "Nazis".
What a moron...diluting the word to make a cheap point and making the SS and Gestapo look better. Only a dumb azhole like you would try to accomplish that.
..diluting the word to make a cheap point and making the SS and Gestapo look better.
Only a true commie A Hole would do that. I would love to watch him walking around Poland talking this crap. But we both now he hasnt the balls to try it. Hes only a keyboard warrior and a stupid one at that. It cracks me up when he constantly reffers to himself as being "decent". Pfffft!
