They are not hugging and their body language says it all.

Tusk is a Kashubian. He always has gone out of his way to point this out so there is nothing brotherly about Tusk when he comes into contact with anyone Polish.

Tusk is a Eurocrat who was appointed by Brussels so he isn't a top Polish politician either.

President Duda is the confident alpha male in the room.

Tusk knows that he himself is the beta male. His face is a mixture of meekness and resentment.

Tusk is in a lower status so has to physically reach out to President Duda. Because he is physically shorter than President Duda, Tusk prefers to stand sideways so he doesn't have to look up to and be gazed down upon by his superior. Tusk also maintains his distance since he is uneasy about his inadequacy and doesn't want to be there.

Tusk only shows genuine respect to someone better than himself when they hate Poland even more than he does.

News / Abortion still under control in Poland [2986]


That's why the so-called "law of the land" Roe-v-Wade decision was finally overturned. It never was a right and everyone knew this. That's why abortion advocates always used words like "decision" and "choice" and it being a "private matter" between a woman, her doctor and (laughably) her "God".

News / Abortion still under control in Poland [2986]


If women want support from the government and medical community to carry out their abortions then it's clear they would have no problem asking for and being given the same support to carry out infanticide for them.


That method simply allows women to participate in the murder of their baby without getting their manicured hands messy in performing it.

It also allows women to mitigate any cognitive dissonance in going through with "their choice" by projecting their own responsibility and guilt onto the abortionist.

Life / Has feminism and lesbianism progressed in Poland? [645]


It is a personal issue.

If a father agrees to pick up his kids then he will. The man is being responsible.

If a father agrees to pick up his kids but suddenly is unable to then he will reasonably ask the mother to do this instead because he knows they have joint responsibility for their children. The man is still acting responsibly.

When the mother tells the father she will pick up the kids because he can't then on a whim she changes her mind without telling him or anyone else then you will come on here like any feminist and complain how bad men are.


Because women are weaker than men and they respond to this through safety in numbers with each other.

This is why in any nightclub women always escort each other to the toilets.

Women are natural collectivists anyway.



Generation after generation.




Propagandists already know women feel and don't think. They understand that women aren't going to read hefty manifestos before doing their bidding.

Propagandists also know that women are conformists and always look for visual and other social queues on how to model their lives.

See for yourself:




Gee, I wonder why?





Clearly the near zero birthrates must be due to men not doing their fair share of domestic chores at home rather than crazed feminists publicly pressuring women to avoid having children under the guise of it being a "human rights" issue.


Taxes are based in law and you "as a woman" are fine with the status quo because the tax system benefits women at the expense of men.

Feminism isn't about equality between men and women. It's about using the state to secure power and privilege only for women.

Individualist Feminism Versus Collectivist Feminism

"modern gender feminism owes more to Marxism and socialist feminism than it does to classical liberalism and individualist feminism...gender feminism incorporates such socialist ideas as 'surplus labor,' by which human cooperation is viewed as the process of one group taking benefits from another group...the law must act to benefit women, who have been historically disadvantaged, at the expense of men, who have been the oppressors."

No, it is a younger version of you!

Decades ago you were a young single incel in public seeking the attention and approval of women.

Today you are an old married incel lurking on the internet and still seeking the attention and approval of women. :)

You are also what is shamefully called a "white knight" (which women don't respect by the way):



I'm more like this guy:




Indeed. This is why women and so-called "real men" who simp for women need feminism.

Life / Has feminism and lesbianism progressed in Poland? [645]


You're not being honest.

As already pointed out women have a lower participation rate in the workforce but a higher absenteeism rate when compared to men.

Men are at work providing for themselves (because society won't) or for their families (because that is the expectation placed on men).

Women are exercising options about whether to work or stay at home (and society will bend over backwards to support their decision even as they complain not enough is being done for them regardless of their decision).

Most women don't trust men around children anyway regardless of how close the relationship is.

Is this maternal instinct? Yes, especially when the wife cheated on her husband and knowingly gave birth to another man's child. Many such cases exist and that is why some countries ban paternity test or place the burden only on the man to pay and jump through many legal hoops to get a paternity test done. This is what matriarchal societies do. A truly gender equal society would have paternity tests done automatically and as soon as possible.

Another example (this time as a result of feminist programming) of female distrust of a father around what she knows is his own children becomes unmasked when she (like most women) file for divorce and then does everything to ensure the father is denied custody or even visitation rights while making sure his child support payments keep flowing into her bank account.


This has already been addressed in other threads.

Feminism deliberately destroyed the nuclear family by brainwashing "strong and independent" women into seeing marriage as slavery and motherhood as drudgery if not deadly (i.e., "she'll die giving birth so she needs to have constant access to free abortions", blah, blah, blah.).

For any women who do show interest in children they either want to have an "amazing career" first and then have only one child in their 30s or 40s and which frequently ends up being born with chromosomal conditions such as Down syndrome.

Or such women remain childless and take to activism to support migrant families entering the country and using the health care system they never paid into to have replacement children. These career-first/children-never women are often at points of entry smiling widely and holding "welcome refugees" signs or they can be found walking their dog in a park and stopping to talk excitedly with ubiquitous pregnant migrant women who also have at least two other migrant children in tow.


He isn't the OP. Regardless of who started it you know they have a point and that is why you are so defensive and "feel" the need to try to convince others to deny reality. It's called gaslighting and is a common female trait.


Again, you're not being honest.

If you were you would have said that generally tax affects men because men earn more than women because men work more than women.


Yawn, the worn-out feminist meme of men being dumb and incompetent and women being brilliant and doing it all with ease.

Life / Has feminism and lesbianism progressed in Poland? [645]


That's what happens in feminist/lesbian societies which fetishize diversity. In the end people realize they have nothing in common with each other apart from living within the same borders.

By the way, why didn't you include Jews in your litany of descriptors? They too hyphenate their identity (Jewish-American) or overemphasize just being Jewish. Are they talking bollox when they do this?

Life / Has feminism and lesbianism progressed in Poland? [645]


They can still put in a full work day after taking care of personal stuff so they don't have to reduce their hours.


No, women aren't "cracking on with their lives" and are still not happy otherwise the topic of men not doing more domestic work for women wouldn't have even been brought up.

Ever hear of the "bykowe" tax in Poland? The "bull" or "unmarried man" tax? It was imposed several times Poland's history.

Who were the beneficiaries of this tax burden? Women of course.

Sure this was abolished each time it was introduced but in name only.

Since men earn more than women by virtue of working more than women then men are de facto paying more in taxes.

And who effectively is paying for a woman's care during pregnancy, childcare support thereafter and then health and pensions for women who retire earlier and again live longer than men?

The answer again is men and only men who are paying for women regardless of a man's marital status.

Yes, but it still wouldn't fully explain why 35% of women aged 20 - 64 don't work.

Number of live births in Poland from 1950 to 2022

"In 2022, the number of live births in Poland was the lowest since 2017 and amounted to 8.1 per thousand population. The highest rate was recorded in 1950 when the number of births per 1000 people was nearly 31."

statista.com/statistics/429152/birth-rate-in-poland/


Nowadays women only get pregnant to get out of work.

The only traditional expectation from a woman about getting pregnant is that having a child means someone will be there to care for her in old age since women still outlive men by nearly a decade.

Life / Has feminism and lesbianism progressed in Poland? [645]


I would love to see her explain how women are paying 50/50 ("if not more") in relationships while at the same time complaining there is a gender pay gap.

She must believe that women should befinancially compensated for doing domestic work if men are not doing it.

But she can't have it both ways.

If a wife doing unpaid domestic work is her way of meeting a 50/50 bargain with her husband's overall or complete financial contributions to the relationship then what is the problem?

Yeah, we know, we know, women are "tired".

Nah, the fact is these feminists never grew out of their "princess complex".

You must buy from Ikea. Cheap and cheerful!


Of course not, that's what domestic staff are paid to do.


50/50?

No, of course it isn't.

But since you say they do then provide the data you have to show this.

On second thought, don't bother. Just continue reading below.


Nope. The statistics simply do not support your feminist lies.

Gender Equality Index 2019: Poland

"The employment rate (of people aged 20-64) is 65% for women and 79% for men. On average, women work 38 hours per week and men 42 hours."

ec.europa.eu/eurostat/web/products-eurostat-news/-/ddn-20200708-2


Lies. See above. Women don't do anywhere near the same amount of work as men in order to earn the same amount of money in order to pay 50/50 for everything.


LOL! Lies! Never!


Lies. See above. Women don't do the same amount of work as men. Literally, women are not there as much as men to do it.


Tired from what? Being out all night clubbing before a workday? Having to get out of bed on a workday? Not being able to have a "lazy girl job"?




Yeah, right. Sure it is.

Behold the feminist fantasy:

Life / Has feminism and lesbianism progressed in Poland? [645]


You obviously don't care about scratching floors or damaging carpets. But then again women don't pay financially into relationships so the concept of responsibility that comes with ownership is truly alien to them.


Nor should he.

Since it is a man who buys or pays the rent on a home, along with all the furniture, plus the vacuum cleaner then this is the only heaving lifting a wife should expect from her husband when it comes to cleaning:



When women start paying 50/50 in money for everything in the relationship only then will they be able to speak with any credibility about "sharing".

Good question.

It shouldn't be the United States. After all, America for decades has sent billions and billions of dollars in fealty over to Israel to "guarantee" their safety and security with bullets, bombs, barricades and border walls.

And yet October 7th still happened.

American taxpayers deserve a serious refund.

Indeed, what does Israel provide in return to the United States?

This is never talked about just like how Israel's deliberate attack on the USS Liberty in 1967 killing 34 and wounding 174 American servicemen is never talked about.

Yes and no.

Both countries received aid and foreign investment to rebuild their infrastructures and economies.

Today they are modern and prosperous.

Demographics though tell a very different story.

Even if you put aside the devastating and intertwined policies of feminism and abortion, both countries genetically lost the strongest of their men to war.

For those who survived and the subsequent generations in both countries never again felt pride in themselves or their respective countries and this too contributed to the collapse in birthrates.

But that's okay because, at least in Germany's case, "gawd's chosen" already have plans and (US taxpayer) funds to help.

Unfortunately, rape is recognized as something that is and has been used as a weapon of war in conflicts all over the world. Even US soldiers have committed rape both of the enemy and within their own ranks. Unlike in other parts of the world though at least with the US when such acts are discovered it is treated as a crime and the perpetrators are given prison sentences and their careers ruined.


There is too much bad blood between Israel and Palestinians but I hear they have actually cooperated on police related matters in the past.

It's not surprising though that Israel expects the entire world to be enraged and rally to support only them yet you don't ever hear a single word out of them when other countries are going through anything similar.

As I said in another post, both Israelis and Palestinians are foreigners. The responsibility is on both of them to find a solution to find a way to live separately and next to each other in peace.

'There's No Such Thing as Palestinians': The Ignorant Bigotry of pro-Israel Propagandists

Ouch! And that's the view from inside Israel. LOL!

They Say, We Say: The Palestinians are not a real people

"The starting point is this: it makes no difference whether Israelis, or Jews, or anyone else recognize the Palestinians as a people.The Palestinians view themselves as a distinct people, with deep ties to the land between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea. Israel and supporters of Israel can neither deny nor wish the Palestinians and their claims out of existence.

There is ample historical documentation showing that a separate local identity among Arabs living in Palestine started forming in the 16th and 17th century, and that a national Palestinian consciousness began crystallizing early in the 20th century, as anti-colonial movements took root around the world. This national consciousness transformed into a national movement and later into a national liberation movement, in large part as a result of the friction between the Palestinians and Zionism, the Jewish national self-determination movement."

peacenow.org/page.php?name=they-say-we-say-the-palestinians-are-not-a-real-people

Well, many good points made there.

Is Israel qualified to be a self-governing sovereign nation? Not really.

First, they only exist because they need to be propped-up by the United States Government and religious fanatics on both sides of the Atlantic.

Second, they aren't qualified if you simply use the standard of needing a precedence of self-rule which is being applied only to the Palestinians.

The Romans finally expelled the Jews from Palestine in the 1st Century. That's not a good sign when claiming to be sovereign especially when you also have a long history of other neighboring powers (such as Egypt, Greece, Persia) also taking your land and sending you into exile too.

Once the Romans gave the Jews the final boot they lived in many other parts of the world but mainly Europe.

Yet in over 2,000 years they never once had a self-governing sovereign nation of their own until 1948.

So why was the State of Israel founded at all 75 years ago when they would have to go back to even before Roman times to show any formal tribal organization and then use their own religious texts (not valid in law by the way) to make territorial claims in the modern era?

That's like someone putting together a family tree as a hobby and then claiming to find a royal ancestor and using it as all the credentials that are needed to be a governor or president today.

"Never Saw So Many Feminists Being Silent" Over Attacks on Israel - Says Israeli Minister May Golan

Off-Topic / Has Palestine ever existed? [68]


"Diplomatic relations between Poland and the PLO were established in July 1982 (after Israeli aggression in Lebanon). Representation of the PLO received the official status of a diplomatic mission, and its director - with the status of ambassador - the privilege of accreditation to the head of state. Renaming the PLO mission in Warsaw to "The Embassy of the Palestinian State" took place in 1989 during the visit of Mr. J. Arafat, due to the unilateral Palestinian decision. It was adopted by the Polish authorities (the Polish position resulted from the decision of the UN General Assembly from December 15, 1988 concerning the use of the name "Palestine" instead of "PLO"). As a result of the signing of the peace agreement between the PLO and Israel in 1995, the name "Embassy of Palestine" started to be used in order to stress the fact that the peace process will result in the creation of a Palestinian state. Poland supports the right of the Palestinian people to self-governance and its aspirations to achieving an independent Palestinian state as a result of the Middle East peace process."

All that needs to be established are permanent borders within their ancestral lands. Reasonably this would be what the UN proposed in 1948.

Even Poland didn't finally settle its border with German until 1990 (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German%E2%80%93Polish_Border_Treaty).

Canada and America still haven't resolved their territorial disputes (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_areas_disputed_by_Canada_and_the_United_States).

Exactly!

Jews from Central and Eastern Europe only migrated there with Britain's permission in the 1900s because they didn't want to participate in diversity, equity and inclusion in the societies of the countries they were actual born in and once they got to Palestine they didn't want to participate in diversity, equity and inclusion with the native non-Jews who were already living there for millennia.

What does that matter?

There were centuries when it simply didn't exist nor was it autonomous which is the same argument you are trying give for the Palestinians not "existing".

Congress Poland

"Following the partitions of Poland at the end of the 18th century, Poland ceased to exist as an independent nation for 123 years. The Congress Kingdom of Poland was theoretically granted considerable political autonomy by the liberal constitution. However, its rulers, the Russian emperors, generally disregarded any restrictions on their power. It was, therefore, little more than a puppet state in a personal union with the Russian Empire. Thus, from the start, Polish autonomy remained little more than fiction."

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Congress_Poland


Nor was there any real country of Israel before 1948.

Zionism originated in Central and Eastern Europe not Palestine. Zionists had to ask the British to be allowed to immigrate to Palestine.

This is all in the 1917 Balfour Declaration which mentions Palestine by name but Israel isn't mentioned anywhere.

The Balfour Declaration also recognizes "existing non-Jewish communities in Palestine" and makes Jewish immigration conditional in that their entry into Palestine must not infringe on the civil and religious rights of the native population.



By the way, the Zionists in Palestine were first ruled under the British. The British then turned control over to the United Nations.

It was the United Nations that first proposed a two state solution.

Therefore, there never was a real country Israel whose liberation had to be fought for and freed.


So? No different than the State of Israel being self-recognized for a mere 75 years.

If you believe Jewish myths then why don't they resettle to the lands they claim they spent nearly a century in exile (i.e., ancient Babylon which is now modern day Iraq)?

Heck, they can go way back to the homeland of their prophet character Moses (i.e., Egypt) where as a people they claim to have lived for over 400 years.

Or they can go live in the land where this Moses person died (i.e., Jordan).
