@pawian
I don't have a problem with any part of your post.
Because I do not see a.political agenda in any of that.
For me, that is an education like the one that I had.
A wide selection of views.
It is the narrow minded, this is how you should think, stuff that I hate.
And teaching kids that right wing thinking is wrong and left wing thinking is right is unacceptable and teachers have no right to step into politics.

Because that is not the job of teachers.
Their job is to teach,not to indoctrinate with political views.
Yeah, I don't have a problem with that.Patriotism may or may not follow from that approach to education.
But that is fine.
I just hate the political indoctrination that seems to be happening in schools across Europe right now.
Why teaching one is ok and the other isn't?

. But educating would mean only teaching history, for example. Not patriotism

@Paulina
How can a love of your country be indoctrination?
We are talking about patriotism here, love for your country,as opposed to nationalism which is a feeling of superiority over other nations.
Poles are not 1930's Germans......

I think all that is good.
Exactly my point, I don't think it is any more.
For me, the job of teachers is to educate not to indoctrinate.
I feel that Pawian is a biased person with his attitude towards "Rightists" and is not fit to be an unbiased educator.
. School taught me patriotism, for example, to some extent tolerance (towards Jews, for example), that neo-Nazism is bad
I think all that is good.
the balance must be there

What a weak and disgusting generalisation.
And that is the root of the problem.
The problem is that school teachers are out of touch with ordinary people.
Of course!
Teachers need to learn to understand how parents feel and think,not the other way round.
Exactly, teachers need to stop preachimg, it is not their job, they need to go back to teaching and not brainwashing kids.
rightists have a huge problem with raising their kids
What a weak and disgusting generalisation.
all schools promote that tolerance stuff
And that is the root of the problem.
Then a father or mother tries to reverse what the school has taught
The problem is that school teachers are out of touch with ordinary people.
Don`t you think it can badly influence such kids?
Of course!
Teachers need to learn to understand how parents feel and think,not the other way round.
Having to deal with two coompletely different attitudes they can get sort of schizophrenic in result

Forums are strange. I assumed that you were about the same age as me.
Your post suggests that you are actually quite a bit younger.
Not really my kind of music, but I appreciate the Polish part of it.

I would not say it is imminent but it could happen unless the EU reforms itself.
Merkel has made some serious errors in her time including allowing all those refugees in and messing up on Covid.
About the only thing she has done right is to keep the German economy strong.

What do Poles owe to Jews?
Nothing.Except respect.
I just wish that some Jews, especially in America, would offer Poles that same respect.
As Yad Vashim does.

And quite rightly so, I don't trust teetotalers.
If you are not prepared to let your guard down after a few drinks, then you have probably got something to hide.
Good Polish logic.
Plus it gets a few more drinks in....... LOL!!!!
In communist times non-drinkers were often viewed as informers

They shouldn't, but who is brave enough to stand up against them?
Poor comparison, the south declared themselves as the CSA, not the USA.
Besides, why should communist China be allowed to attack and occupy anticommunist Taiwan?
