Genealogy / Do you consider Gorals, Lemkos, and Silesians Poles? [77]


If Ukrainians are not Ukrainians because the Ukrainian nation doesn't exist, they are Poles, plain and simple. How can you brazenly call them Russian? lol

I'm reading history, which often is as factual and objective as possible. You are reading Russian history; it is a long list of excuses and justifications for imperialist Russian claims.

Ukrainian is simpler for Poles to understand than Russian. I have great difficulty trying to successfully understand them when they talk; My knowing Russian doesn't help that much.

Ukrainian is a different language, and Ukrainians are a separate nation from Russia, which you can recognize from history (not Russian history, as it is also political). Silesian is easy for a Pole to understand.
By the way, I suspect that one minister in the Tusk government is a Russian asset.

That is a myth. Few institutions and few professors moved there from Lwów. Not the whole population.

You can call it whatever you want, and you can sell any myth to keep the integrity of your country intact. I don't care. I only mentioned that in passing.

That is the crux of the matter. They are, and Silesians are not.

Yes, I say so, and that should be more than enough for anyone, especially a foreigner.

Ah, I have to add something.
Welsh and Silesians are not the same. Wales and Scotland are two distinct countries that have been absorbed, or more accurately, dominated by the English under specific historical circumstances. You can say they both form separate nations.

In contrast, Silesians are part of Poland, or Poles with distinct cultural (local) differences. I would think that someone from an Anglophone background is familiar with the various accents and local dialects of the English language and does not confuse these differences with ethnicity or nationality.

Most likely, he was (not necessarily) emulating the attitude of many British towards foreigners in their country. I would say karma is a *****, lol, or better still, you sow the wind, you gather the storm.
Back at you - Another glimpse into the wildly deluded mind of Average Joe the Brit, tunnel-vision fixated on his odd square country, with some very skewed views and deep ignorance of anything beyond anglosphere and Western Europe.

History / Poles should apologise to Ukrainians first [487]


Your rusty nukes are one reason, but not the main one. That is the last-resort option. The U.S. wouldn't need to push you too hard; they could blind you when it comes to satellites, destroy all military and critical infrastructure, and wipe out most of your military personnel. That would likely be enough, as China would, at the very least, support you diplomatically.
Achieving this would be costly for the U.S. and would not be popular among the populace. Hence, there is no appetite for war with Russia in the United States.
When it comes to nukes, Russia would be completely destroyed, whereas for the U.S., that is not necessarily the case. Anyway, let the experts argue about fallout! lol!

Look, you are talking about some politicians, a class in their own, not necessarily expressing well the mood of the country.

No, the biggest betrayers were the UK. They enjoyed the benefits of being an ally and made promises, only to forget to lift a finger for their ally.
The US didn't make any specific promises to Poland, only casual, and even if they go back on their word on some issues, they were not really an ally of Poland.
If they were, so was the Soviet Union.

I'm not saying that they would, I'm saying that they could. However, you are right in their analysis of cost-effectiveness of such a hypothetical war; they found it would cost them too much. They don't want to pay those costs; that is obvious.

How does it matter? At least they need us because we have something they don't. The US could wipe out Russia; they don't need Poland for that. But why would they do it for Poland?

Scandinavia has a very good independent military industry, something that Poland needs. Depending on the US-made expensive junk is irresponsible.

Blame Bolsheviks.

As was only to be expected. No surprise here. Only Retards from PO and PiS are surprised or still do not get it. When does incompetence count as sabotage and treason?
---

Yeah, sure, I told you which countries we should build a good rapport with. I hate to repeat myself.
--

We can only count on our own forces. Germany? Will they pretend to be on our side and then, in the crucial moment, switch sides?
--

Our allies, with the US at the helm, would never allow it. They are shaking in their boots, so afraid that there will be war with Russia. Only the threat of war can make Russia take them seriously.

Indeed, Marxists came and screwed the idea for everyone with their dumb ideological nonsense.

Real Estate / How to buy forest land in Poland? [18]


The US or even Canada would be more suitable for this kind of fantasy; even Siberia would be better than Poland. We are too small, and we did not protect our forests or what little is left of them to make a cozy for some weirdos who want to squat in them.

You can buy an old house and some land in remote places where few people live; that is a better option.

News / Will PiS be happy if AfD wins elections in Germany? [1440]


That is not socialism; those are countries built on the idea of a nation, and hence they promote solidarity and charity among the members of their own nation. Then, stupid Marxists come in and spoil it for everyone, as we can see in Sweden.
Also, Marxism as a philosophy states that Jews are at the bottom of all evil capitalist practices. Why don't Marxists preach anti-Semitism as Marxists?

News / Polish-Russian war? Drones entering Polish airspace. [252]

As to drones.
If you would like to review the PF archives, you can.
I said long ago that provocations on the Belarusian border can't be left unanswered because we invite more bold action from Russian Mir. It is a simple rule of asymmetrical warfare and an even older rule of escalation. Especially when that soldier had been killed, it called for retaliation, ie, someone on their side should have died.
Nah, F Tusk and his crew of clowns, all they can do is sucjk German dick and threaten Polish citizens.
If it were up to me, I would make Lukashenko cry. F upstard, who the hell does he think he is?

Just put your money where your mouth is and stop spamming this site with your empty claims. If I had a cent for every time you said you don't care about Poland and you are a proud American, I would be a millionaire by now.
How about you be wherever you want to be and don't care about Poland at all to your heart's content, but for goodness' sake, stop spamming PF with your dull crap. Shut the F up!
As you have nothing to say, it is painfully obvious.

Proper elites in charge. I said that a decade ago, and I reiterate it now. It's that simple. Having good ideas is not that rare. Every minute, there is always someone with a good idea, every day someone with a brilliant idea, and every month someone with a genius idea. All those ideas can take a long hike on a short pier for all the good they do.
Proper elites in charge need to facilitate good ideas into practical reality.
Simple! Anyone disagree?

News / Polish-Russian war? Drones entering Polish airspace. [252]


Maybe it was meant to be a lesson to the coalition of the Willy, that their plan to support Ukraine with air support could be easily nipped in the bud by the Russian drones.

Explanation -the Wily coalition would have to use the infrastructure of Poland and Romania to be efficient, even though Poland hasn't joined its ranks.

Once again, half-baked bravado and some murky interest of our westerly friends brought nothing but trouble to Poland.

The point being that it is not the perception by the general society. It is pushing such a narrative by some political journalist-hacks.

News / The most pro-Russian Polish politicians [14]


What do you mean by " pro-Russian? Could you elaborate on what it means to be pro-Russian in your mind? Would that be, for example, breaking the mold of pro-Ukrainian propaganda?
Would that mean no to **** off Russians more than necessary, especially when that pissing off is nothing more than talking sh;t? If that is so, you would be pro-Russian.

In general, I dislike the fashion in Poland of dividing politicians based on pro-German, pro-Europe, pro-US, or anti-this or that. How about judging them for their job as Polish politicians?

The problem is that those allies do not have a solution to dornes at hand. We would have to ask Ukrainians. The US is in the process of testing prototypes.

News / Polish-Russian war? Drones entering Polish airspace. [252]


Who expects us to be capable and able to hold our own, at the very least, able to deal with a few drones? After all, we are the first line of NATO, next to the war, and that war has been conducted for over three years. There was plenty of time for all necessary arrangements and preparations.
Allies are there to support; expecting that they will come to the rescue is incorrect thinking.
--
What needs to be done. What should have been done a long time ago: Prepare proper anti-drone defences, which means organization and people. There is no point in discussing it further. How to respond. Send a few drones over Kaliningrad airspace and one drone halfway to Minsk. A one in Belarus, not that one in Mazowieckie.

--
Also, get rid of the Russian asset in the Polish govermnat.
