Life / Are Poles mentally more Eastern European or Western European? [170]

Still heavily centralized.

No, you miss the point. I listed those key words as the main reason for highly (not heavily) centralized France. Royal France wasn't that centralised - its a bad rep than anything else.

History / Why do Polish people hate to be called Eastern European? [120]

You don't know the meaning of the word "fake" then:-)

Yet I still know when someone put on an act and is ingenuine in some sense.

On a map, Poland is closer "East" than either Czech Republic or Slovenia etc.

See. you don't know two hoots about geography. It doesn't work the way you think it does.

I think there are not too many morons who think Poland is part of Russia

No one is counting but there are some.

History / Why do Polish people hate to be called Eastern European? [120]

Poles often don't wish to be reminded of their Eastern or Slavic roots,

Bah!

One: in school they learned that Poland geographically belongs to the Central Europe - so they want to correct anglophones who generally have a vague idea bout geography.

Two: Eastern for them is assisted with Russia, they don't want to associated with that country. So its bugs them on some level, that feeling it enhanced by the morons who "think" that Poland is a part of Russia and there is no significant differences between those two countries/nations/cultures.

I personally think that because such a term exist due to the cold war heritage it could be wise and smart on the part of the Polish people to make a good use out of it. Like unite the eastern Europe around the three seas area. Cool, eh?

By the way Lyzko I diss you cause you came across as a fake person. All about you screams - fake. No offence.

Poland is at the crossroads between Western, Central and Eastern Europe

Nope, Poland as it is has post-colonial stress disorder.

Culturally and historically Poland is western as in western civilization that encompasses more that some elicits anglophones like to think. (not a dig at you)

Poland is a branch of the western civilization/culture in this part of the world.

All those superficial features you listed are not what matters. Those are just historical influences due to history.

History / What is Poles opinion on Intermarium (Międzymorze)? [188]

he sympathies by some of V4's members for Putin's Russia.

Its hard to build a viable political connecting basing it solely on sympathies. Firstly there needs to a common interest that connect the parties and from there everything need to be and should worked on. Prerequisite factors for building a solid block of states in this part of the world without Russian or German meddling definitely exist.

What will happen? nobody knows.

History / Why are Poles/Poland disliked by Germans? [140]

Germany has always believed herself to be superior to nearly everybody

Phew, that is a very cheap rhetoric. Nearly everyone believed itself to be superior to one or other or anybody else, historically speaking. You're confusing Nazi's anti-scientific dogma about races with a general attitude that was prominent in the 19th century but not only then. Snap out of it, will you.

History / Why are Poles/Poland disliked by Germans? [140]

I don`t understand why it might be a source of dislike when you don`t know sth or somebody

If you don't know someone your likes and dislike are guided by stereotypes and prejudices. Prussia produced tonnes of those, Nazi's propaganda added some more. It just doesn't go away completely.

History / Why are Poles/Poland disliked by Germans? [140]

Do you know any other?

they're dicks, that all. lol
If you're looking for some other reasons you missed some more obvious:

- ideological - some Germans are lefties/proegssivies hence they view the Polish people like all lefties as if .....

- ignorance - basically they don't know much about Poland or anything really. It goes the other way around but to the much lesser extended.

- They are collectivists at heart like a hive with orders and ranks and authorities - where the Polish people are individualists.

the British.

dude, stop writing off-topic garbage. That is a separate issue connected to mass immigration and such. You want to discus the Brits, go to an appriopate thread. Geez what a noisy brat!

They are not that steadfast allies in Brussels either (Tusk election)...

What that even mean? What Brussels ever done for Poland? Rather Russia is hostile to Warsaw. It has nothing to do with PiS.

News / Pawel Adamowicz, Gdansk mayor, dies after stabbing [354]

No 'turning' needed. It's sadly clear cut. T

It is not. It has been turned into it by meddlers due to divide and partisan squabbles in Poland.

I do not partake in those pointless finger pointing exercises. You do.

I'm an objective observer, you are not.
I'm right you are wrong. Let end it here. :)

hen don't you care about those at the event who were traumatized at a happy charity event turned into a murder scene?

What are you even talking about? why are you detracting that debate from its natural course into some morbid WHO cares more challenge? Ergo who is a better man i.e. Who has a moral high ground.

Its so lame, its so leftists. You should be ashamed of yourself and apologize profoundly! Not to me as I don't care that much but generally to the humanity for being a poseur. Hence adding to the problem rather than helping to solve it or mend it.

By the way all my posting in this forum is the evidence of my care for the people in Poland. I whish for them to have real elites, better standards and better leaders and generally to do better. I know they can do it. In order to help them one need to tell them the truth even if that hurt sometimes.

Mayor was killed by some wacko because PO changed the law that regulated rules in regard to Security Firms. Its allowed them to hire people officially declared disable either to physical or mental deficiency. Most of those security providers dazzle with a very low standards of their services, hence they are quite cheap to hire.

Looking for people responsible for what had happened look no further than PO's representatives and organizer of the event who is by law responsible for providing security. In the third place PiS's representatives who did nothing to amend that law.

They hired a cheap security firm with low standards. Here is your answer. Here is the truth.

yapping about some pollical murder is a folly. Was here a hired assassin some former Special forces member? Hell no! He is some loony, a random dude. There was and are and will be a lot of people like him - loonies, people with grudge, ex-cons and whatnot ....everywhere bar some totalitarian regimes there are people like him, some random stray rabbit dogs ready to bite anything and anybody.

Hence there are security measures and standards, laws and guards, bodyguards and security forces to prevent something like that from happening.

Do you want prevent people from Poland being traumatized like that ever again? Why don't you point out the real issues that should fixed rather than focusing on a trivia and some ritual tribal scapegoating, eh?

Seems to me that is YOU and all the individuals like YOU are the once that don't care about the people being traumatized. You rather are using this opportunity to strike against those you don't like for some reason. Is not exactly a secret you dislike PiS. I just didn't realize at first that you would stoop that low just to have a go at them.

That disgusting. Do you understand now why should you apologize? Mr With a Sense or Humor but Without a Sense of Decency?

News / Pawel Adamowicz, Gdansk mayor, dies after stabbing [354]

Are you sure of that? He did grab the microphone and tell millions that he was there for Mayor Adamowicz...

Well whatever, I just don't like when you turn some ex-con deeds into a political murder, that just plainly wrong.

So I'm remining you that something like that did happen when PO members what was his name killed PiS party members and he wasn't mentally ill.

What about that? PO is so progressive that done it 6 years go right?

Can't you see that is all BS narrative? that doesn't solve anything it just tell me you're into partisan squabbles.

No, he's just pulling stuff out of his rear to justify not caring about the murder victim.

Oh shut up if you don't know any better. I don't have to justify it. I don't care about him as I didn't know him at all.

It doesn't mean that I'm condoning a murder or any criminal activity THAT is what you imply and it is YOU who pulls that Sh..te out of your unwashed behind . You should apologize for it.

Mind you, it does show what party crazed knife-wielding maniacs support...

nah, it is just a crazy person that showed up on a random public event. what about that PO member? no criminal record, no mental illnesses, just a pure hate. he actually killed a person and would killed more if not stopped by force - that shows where the really hatful little ***** are grouping.

I don't support neither of them so I can say it with a 96% dose of impartiality.

especially when they're reporting something that's a matter of record.

Is it a matter of record? So far it is just a gossip.

Anyway, even If that is true it is simply irrelevant unless you are deeply involved in some partisan squabbles. legally it has no bearing on anything.

Hence I think that is only a lie. A propaganda if you will in a war of said partisan squabbling.

Looks like you can't handle the media reporting

I can handle anything. I just don't treat all the media reports as a gospel. People and the media often lie or distort the truth, hell sometimes they don't even know the truth. Seems to me you can't handle more complex issues than a black and white dichotomy of your prejudices.

So far so called media are reporting on some obscure gossip. A gossip that you desperately want to believe in.

the PRL

Mr Expert it did not work like you are imagining it did. In PRL news/propaganda was for the plebs, the people in nomenclature were in the know circle or so they have thought.

So your analogy is a fail.

Beside today media in so called free world are mostly about propaganda too. The internet is on the other hand still free to some extent, well in some parts of the world.

Paweł Adamowicz's killer told a prison counsellor just a few days before his releas

Sure, a one hag said to another hag - what is that? Are you taking part in spreading some washerwomen gossip? Could that be a case that such a gossip is regarded newsworthy? Either your reading habits include some gutter press or the media in Poland are in the gutters already ... It comes as no spires with AlexSprigler dominance on the market in Poland, not to mention others foreign own media ..

By the way what about that prison counselor isn't he/she investigated for a breach of confidentiality? No? I guess that just another fake news.

Life / Feeling ashamed of my Polish heritage. [237]

Gov. is talking to India and Pakistan to bring in some workers from those countries, they are also preparing a law that would give them right to bring in their families. So that is a start.

Anyhow, it is not a question of the 3th world immigrants although it bring the question of different cultures and Muslim but all the above wouldn't mattered if not for the fact that the gov is gearing everything to being a process of opening the doors for a mass immigration. That is the crux of the matter as everywhere mass migration/immigration caused problems.

It is not something that can be reversed.

.impossible.

I know that. It was kind of a wishful thinking on my part.

I don't have a grudge against German politicians. Rather against those 'poles' that empower them.

By the way a Polish person is a petty much a cultural construct. As such many so called Poles falls shot of it.

total complete blatant disregard of polish law by organizers.

Polish state is a mess and no mayor party do anything about it. They just whip up the hate and emotions for their own gain. This time is so called opposition time, they will exploit that unfortunate demise to the hilt. Nothing you can do about. Plus, all 'liberal', red, PC commissars across the borders will join in, it their golden opportunity to shine.

Do they care about Adamowicz? Most likely less that me. They will just use him to no end.
