Three city.

I start to doubt your claims. I doubt you have been living in Poland for about 30 years and I suspect you lied about your circumstances too. Good job you had some of us on PF fooled for a while. Now your game is up, just get lost. Geez what a looser. ...

History / Communism fell 20 years ago, Poland led the fight since WW2 [341]

PiS government is accused of authoritarian inclinations

By inept politicians who lost an election. You can call them sore losers. The same people who for the last four years have been unable to offer voters some attractive alternative. All they do are slinging mug and accusation. Half wits and cretins. As I say they have no class, no brains and no standards. All they have are big shameless mugs.

the defeat of communism in Poland because it wasn`t as spectacular as in other countries,

Maybe because communism fell but commies slayed pretty much in charge.

decent people don`t want to celebrate together with them.

They are not that decent if they are willing to celebrate with the members of KC PZPR.

Besides the Germanization

Polish couldn't advance in German army or administration. There were no Polish officials in local adm, I believe there has no been Polish officers with a rank higher that major.

How member states run the EU?

You said:

the EU is run by people who are appointed by member states,

I asked you about who are you talking about? |what people? Tusk wasn't appointed by Poland and yet he become a butler. So who exactly appointed him IF he wasn't appointed by Poland?

The big weakness off the nationalists you can count on....unable to work together! ;)

That is simply not true. Of course we are talking (I'm talking) about nationalist as those who support a national state. On the other hand your optic is Marxist.

Yet again nonsense and slogans. Is that even mean anything? Dream about European Imperium rules by some unaccountable pen pushers by the rule of thumb is just dumb and won't work. Forcing on the people some LGBT, progressive cultural revolution is tyranny. The only EU that would survive is some kind of less totalitarian, less bureaucratic and Marxist free Europe.

Genealogy / What are common Polish character traits? [425]

I met this idiot

You seems to meet a lot of idiots or ghetto dwellers and some bottom feeders. I just wonder why is that? Are you some kind of social worker or you just rub your elbows a lot with this kind of people

Polish character traits.

I don't believe that such a thing as character traits for a whole nation exist. There some common character traits for a country dude to some specific circumstances and issues generally speaking. Talking about inheriting those or some of those traits due to DNA is a folly or nonsense.

"How dare you talk to us like that."

You think? Try other website in different countries and see what you find there. Not to mention Russia, China, Israel or Korea. If you think that Polish people are touchy it means you don't experienced much beside your own backyard.

News / There is no Poland without the Church! [178]

Crimes against children are not a matter of debate.

Here, you're doing that again. Cheep populism.

the government publishing a list of paedophiles and strangely excluding priests from it.

Maybe because many of them were snitches for the Soviet secret police or maybe they are protected by homosexual lobby in the church?

Any document alleging

You just keep moving goalposts here. In that case any debate is pointless. Not that you have said something new or important.

Evidence is evidence.

Nah, only of a crime or an alleged crime is under investigation. Those who are in a possession of some evidence must be aware that is an evidence, Again totalitarian mindset without understanding of the law.

No 'anti-church' legislation is needed.

Dough implied something of the kind.

all evidence if they relate to an alleged crime under investigation.

IF they relate to an alleged crime UNDER investigation. Yes. I agree but that is not what you posted before.

The police and prosecutors do investigate.

So they are doing their job. Good to know. There is no need for some special anti-Church anti--freedom legislation.

If they contain evidence of a crime,

IF? It doesn't contain any evidence if somebody write something in a letter. IF somebody who wrote it has been a victim or a witness to a crime it is his duty to report it to the authorities. IF that was as simple as you say it wouldn't be even an issue.

to investigate crime

Let them investigate all they want. Who is stopping them eh?

People here seems have no clue or talk without thinking just repeating some nonsense. A common denominator of those people is a fact that they are full of hate and are afraid of a religion and the Church. A good advice for all of you. Talk sense and stick to facts and what you know instead of listing to rumor. As you let your imagination run wild it makes you look silly. Rather than hide behind 'concern' be honest and just spew all the hate and prejudice against the Church you holing inside without any excuses.

Ah, there seem to be a third kind. Simpletons, they hear something on the media and they just go with it.

If they don't act, and demand that all complaints to the bishopry are sent to the public prosecutor or the police,

Wow, isn't that a totalitarian approach? Why would letters or whatnot addressed to somebody else given forcibly to the government. As if government was a medicine and the answer to all wrongs and ills. As if gov was doing such a great job as it is.

You're really confused with your rants against gov and such and then out of the blue you demand more power to be handed over to the gov. I guess it is due to the fact that you're obsessively afraid of a religion.

The fact that people complain to bishops not to the police is question of free choice by individual citizens. All you can do is try to persuade them otherwise or build the trust. Your totalitarian approach is way off. Hey have you fixed Antifa problem? No? So why you butting in into something that doesn't concern you?

So, they dont` know what to do,

They should just jump a lake. Useless morons.

Life / Child abuse in Poland [64]

like the priest who woul a valid criminal record to conduct a service because it was HIS chapel.

Sound like manipulation a phrase out of context. The Church has it their own laws and regulation laws, bishop makes decisions based on those and info they have got. From a moral point of view there is nothing wrong to give someone a sound chance.

There is no law that would ban people with a criminal record to find an employment. So, I don't know what you are trying to say or what is your complain about. You should make it clear because what you actually said was incredibly weak as an argument and frankly sounded quite dumb.

Some of the stories and accounts of child abuse are truly shocking......

I'm sure they are. However there is a line between being concerned about child abuse by priests statically very low percentage and a ideological propaganda war waged against the Church and religion.

History / Modern myths and legends about communist past in Poland [250]

hat is why some people are still so nostalgic about communism.

No, some people are nostalgic because they remember that stratification of the society wasn't that great, that employment was state ,,,if they compare with years of unemployment and no prospects while their neighbors prosper, that brings nostalgia .....

Anyway that is thing of the past, those people are in their 70 and 80 now.

News / Poland GDP growth surprises on upside [35]

which channels are not worthless tools of propaganda with propagandist at the fore? Republika maybe to a degree but all the rest are the same..

Came to think of it most TV channels elsewhere are generally the same - politically based, there is only question of a degree, regardless you can find some good journalists here and there, like Ziemkiewicz, Rachon, Carlson and few others ...

Anyway you whine just because they don't say things that you like to hear not for any other reason.

News / Should Polonia and expat Poles lose voting rights in Polish elections? [85]

You must be PiS supporter pawain. As they have a similar attitude.

Once you start striping from the people their voting right it is a path down the rabbit hole.

As per usual dumb people are yapping stupidly about things they don't understand. they think - hey those are voting on people we don't like, lest strip them from their voting rights. Well enjoy until it is gonna be your turn to be striped from your rights.

Unless you want o have a real talk about reducing number of those eligible to vote. No, not Polonia only.

As I vaguely remember from history at school Austro-Hungarian part was quite laid back.

If you vaguely remained something. it is better to say nothing. As it is a nonsense.
