Life / A warning to Poland: Germany's catastrophic immigration policy: 80-90% criminal manhunts are ARABS / foreigner [83]

For several generations, Sweden was to be sure dubbed "The Nordic Model" by
an envious world, usually by the US rather than Canada.

Germany and Sweden in fact have encouraged private enterprise, look at Ikea,
Mercedes, Bosch etc.

When the US lost control of her New Deal heritage under Reagan, this is when
the mass shootings and random violence here escalated with a frightening vengeance.

And yet people refuse to take the hint.

@Milo et al,
Hate to disappoint you folks, but socialism as it was conceived is NOT nor has it
ever been the same as Communism, that's the first slander I wish to dispel.

Secondly, while Communism is technically a type of dictatorship as practiced
by every country which has tried it, the only way in which socialism is a
dictatorship aka anti-democratic is that it requires of the government, therefore
the society at large, to take care of her fellow citizens and make basic human services,
medical, psychological and the like, affordable to all in need.

This is not being somehow "mired in the New Deal Era" as Joker, Rich, Milo along with
others here on PF have the temerity as well as the sheer ignorance to blithely suggest.
Instead, it should be a clarion, indeed a wake up, call to our current administration (more
a regime) that if Trump's chronic infantility, toxic greed, selfishness, and raw indifference
to the suffering of those not given the wealth into which he was born, is not reversed by
the powers that be, namely, the Supreme Court, we will see throughout the US a violent
backlash such as America hasn't witnessed since we tossed out the Redcoats over two-hundred
-and-fifty years ago.

This is a promise, my friends, not merely a prediction! The present flap over the late, unlamented
Jeffrey Epstein, ought come as no surprise.

As I've said time and time again, Germany, Sweden as well, is making many of the same mistakes
made here in the US. While we all realize Germany is desperately trying to overcome her WWII past
by bending over backwards to accomodate non-Germans, indeed, non-Caucasians, in their midst by
making nice to any and all from the Third World, sooner or later, this experiment, however well intentioned,
will fail.

By all accounts, it already has, only the government refuses to face facts because Merkellites are in denial....
again!

News / France and Germany plan to flood Poland with illegal migrants. [199]

Obviously, you can't be reasoned with and all you do is make yourself look
idiotic with your persistent, crackpot rhetoric!

You were an immigrant yourself once upon a time. How would you have felt
if somebody suggested that you be shot on sight as soon as you and your
family arrived in this country??

Oh, I forgot, your proviso only goes for brown people, sorry LOL

Not certain I see your point here.
Once again, short-sighted thinking on the part of various governments
such as The Netherlands, Sweden, Germany, and Austria is the root
cause of many of the social problems of foreigner integration among
the wealthier European countries!

Life / Will Poland ever be multicultural like Sweden, Germany or France? [283]

Intelligent, sentient beings are smart, heaven forbid enlightened, enough
not to have to hit someone over the head with something, if subtle suggestions
do the trick just as easily!

'Course if you're not smart enough to catch on, Rich, that's scarcely my/our problem now,
is it!

@jon,
Can't entirely agree, especially about "Brave New World".

@Rich,
The late Jerzy Kosinski of BEING THERE fame too spoke and wrote "American" fluently,
albeit with a decided Polish accent!

The differences though between you and Kosinski, apart from the obvious, are that
his accented American English was beautifully articulated, erudite, clever, and learned.

Take a hint?

UK, Ireland / "Strange " English language.. [264]

Yiddish contains approx. at last count, some 90% medaeval, Upper German base vocabulary,
followed by at least 70% Hebrew, finally, about 40-50% Polish loan word stock!

Upon their arrival in the New World towards the close of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th century,
bastardized English words became incorporated into spoken Yiddish.

At least, this is my understanding based on Leo Rosten, Uriel Weinreich, along with other professional
Yiddishists or Yiddish mavens:-)

Off-Topic / PF members MEETUPS.....everyone welcome! [122]

Wouldn't mind zooming with some of the PF members
I've been corresponding with over the years. I'm quite serious.
Am sure that folks such as Rich's, Jimmy's or Ironside's bark is
far worse than their bite!
