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

Ah yeah I've seen that in the USA too though the phone books chained and also of course in banks the pen chained to the counter that always cracked me up.

I think my favorite thing about PRL the way my family describes is that life was simple, everyone had what they needed, and families were tight knit. Having multi generation homes was common. Now everyone's adapted the western consumerist culture thanks to globalization.

Oh and cztery pancerni I pies. I use to watch that all the time as a kid.

I know that's why I wrote , or stolowka basically cheap places to eat. Either way I guess that puts the myth to rest.

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

I've long heard a myth (or maybe it is true) that during PRL if you went into a 'milk bar' (bar mleczny, or stolowka) the silverware was chained to the table... or you had to bring your own..

My mom was telling me a funny story how during PRL a certain family member figured out a way to remove the ink from the rations card after it was marked off. So basically, he could get the stuff repeatedly at different stores. However, stores later began just cutting them out. I actually still have a rations card from the 80s as a keepsake.

The Northside is mostly peaceful except for certain areas like Humboldt park, Hermosa, etc. Still they're nothing like the West and south side. Although those areas are changing now thanks to all the hispter yuppies working downtown who think it's cool to live in run down buildings next to ghetto section 8 tenants. Still I wouldn't want to live there because of the high property taxes, small yards, and all the taxes on things like cigs, gas, food, etc. And it's a lot of little things like whenever I get something shipped to the house they leave the package right in front of my garage or front door in full view of the street. Not once has anything been stolen. That would never happen in the city. The drivers wouldn't leave packages outside like that in the first place.

USA, Canada / Poles Living in the Chicago Area [343]

That's actually how the Simon city royals got started. They were essentially an all white greaser gang back up until around the 90s protecting the north side from Puerto Rican and Mexican gangs like the Latin Kings. The fights you describe only happen in Europe amongst soccer clubs (ustawki). Here people are scared to take an ass whooping and immediately reach for guns.

But ya that shooting got dude 9 years (in reality it's half) and the victim is suing dude for millions. They use to be in a lot of the Polish and Italian areas up north but lost a lot of their territory due to the Latino invasion

USA, Canada / Poles Living in the Chicago Area [343]

The only reason why the dude driving became the leader is because he was awarded over 20 mil in a wrongful conviction case. He spent something like a decade or two for a murder.

What upsets me not so much the stupidity of people who record themselves committing crimes or posting pics of drugs, cash, guns etc is that the police can easily find out who committed a murder yet the murder clearance rate is something like 20% meaning 80% of murders go unsolved. I mean gang members literally brag about who they shot on social media. You don't have to be a detective to figure out who did what.

Yet millions are spent on chasing smollets imaginary attacker... I knew this was b.sm right away - two supposed trump supporters attacking a gay in boystown of all places and saying this is trump country lol come on...

It's not just old people. A lot of poles realized that the United Kaliphate isn't quite what it was when they first arrived after EU accession. Back before it went full clown world allowing sharia courts to be established and taking away medical licenses for not agreeing to transformers demands, the UK was a great destination for work. Hell even my own family moved there after accession but now several have returned and tge rest are planning their move. One cousin will remain though mainly because hes taking full advantage of what will essentially be a free bachelors degree paid paid for by British taxpayers. In Germany it's similar - one female family member left because as a single woman living alone she didn't feel safe thanks to all the rape squads. Even a feminist magazine pointed out that women can't even go to the pool anymore without being groped by young muslim men. After considering the cost of living vs salaries they're not much better off in the UK while in Poland they'd make less yet have the same living standards plus they wouldn't have to deal with all the b.s.


Germany some yes. But not nearly in the same numbers as before.

Point is immigration from Poland to w Europe is decreasing while immigration to Poland from all sorts of countries including w europe is increasing

Speaking of Poles - this is a locally famous video of a half Polish gang leader (Simon City Royals) in Chicago (driver not passenger). Some of the Chicagoans will likely recognize the area - it's the north side and use to be all Polish like around Irving Park, Belmont, etc.

There's some still in the city but it's mostly old generations in the traditional polish areas. That and the FOB generations kids which are very Americanized and most don't speak polish live in the typical yuppie areas

The rest moved out to the suburbs - mostly young families, dink couples like me, etc. A lot moved to Indiana and Wisconsin and even some random states like Florida, Georgia, etc. Also a lot of the older FOB generation that's now retired moved back to Poland.

From what I understand though the Polish community on the east coast namely nyc and new jersey is still in thr same old neighborhoods.

One things for certain though the amount of immigrants coming from Poland has become zilch. It's been like that the past 5 years or so although since EU accession it dramatically slowed down. There isn't really much incentive for poles to come to the USA as the economy is doing great there and after adjusting for cost of living you're basically living with the same kind of standards. And the ones that did immigrate since accession mostly went to UK, Germany some to France, Holland, etc

There's several articles I posted here showing a negative net migration from UK.

Furthermore I'm not talking about just Germany or just Poland. If you've been to any polish city recently you'd know how many people from w Europe, India, china, USA, etc are coming everyday. Also other e euro countries are experiencing significant migration.one thing is for sure - eastern Europeans aren't leaving anymore and in some places like UK to Poland more are coming back than leaving.

So? Japan's population is also aging and they're doing just fine. Either way the solution definitely isn't to import turd worlders the majority of whom are unemployed. German government figures show unemployment levels at 74% according to a financial times article.

Poland is addressing this by bringing in Ukranians, Georgians and others who come from societies where men don't have to take classes teaching them they can't grope and rape women and by encouraging people to have kids through 500 plus and tax rebates for the youth.

As I said several times, that along with being able to take 4 wives if you can afford it i am in total agreement. But essentially nothing else. Oh and their views regarding Israel.


So now that you have data from the official statistics agency that is the most recent at less than 6 years old clearly showing that the majority poles are against public displays of LGBT, are you ready to admit that in fact the majority of poles are against this crap?

Or will continue behaving like a typical leftist and refuse to acknowledge data and statistics that challenge because it doesn't fit into your agenda?

Majority of poles don't want gay marraige, gay adoption, public LGBT displays, etc. That's clear as day.

@Velund

Well nor do I. Personally, I think in this matter we could learn a ton from fundamentalist Muslims. But of course if we started locking them up in prison for decades, caning them in public, etc we'd have the pesky EU interfering.

Although is it questionable if they could actually do anything about it. They do a lot of talking and criticizing, condemning, etc. like with Poland and Hungary refusing migrants, making the country conservative, etc. but it's clear that they don't have anyway of enforcing their will.


Already did - the most recent one available. Here's another -
In a 2013 opinion poll conducted by CBOS, 68% of Poles were against gays and lesbians publicly showing their way of life,65% of Poles were against same-sex civil unions, 72% were against same-sex marriage and 88% were against adoption by same-sex couple

Bam - majority are against gays and lesbians showing their way of life in public - that includes rainmbows.

I'm not talking about tolerating homosexualism. Hell I 'tolerate' it too meaning I can be next to some fruitcake and resist the urge to convert him like the Russians do. I clearly said that the majority of Poles are AGAINST EXPANDING GAY RIGHTS and also are firmly against displays of LGBT - including the hideous rainbow


Again, majority of Poles are against pride parades and depictions of lgbt. Only 17% would be against banning parades.


Serious as cancer. That's one of many polls and the data/opinion is still relevant. That 54% figure you cited of Poles tolerating homos is the same as the one I posted summarized on wiki...

News / PiS candidates are losing positions in EU Parliament. Will they keep power in Poland? [358]

Of course it will. The best thing Merkel could've done to destroy Germany and allow Poland to catch up is bring in millions of turd world mud hut engineers and witch doctors - and even in that the vast majority is unemployed.

I was reading an article online - from a feminist magazine actually - that called out the problem of turd world migrants sexually assaulting women in pools all over Germany.

It won't just be economically - Poland has already surpassed Germany in terms of quality of life by culturally, safety, crime levels, etc. Unlike German cities, a Polish woman can walk around town in a miniskirt without worrying about being shoved into bushes and culturally enriched by a pillar of Islam. In fact that's why so many W Europeans that can afford it are moving to E Europe. Just look at the amount of W Euro expats on here alone living in Poland - they even outnumber the people who are actually Polish.

Come on Lenka - show me surveys or polls that show the majority of Polish people are for gay adoption, gay marriage, etc.?

The only one youll find is that a very slight majority are for partnerships. But in terms of gay adoption, gay marriage, the majority says a firm NO!

Then again -


Keep ignoring all the polls from CBOS, IPSOS, TNS Polska, etc. that show the majority of Poles don't want pride parades, don't want gays to adopt, don't want gay marriage, and wouldn't be against banning pride parades.

News / Degenerate "rainbow" eyesore to disappear from Saviour Square (Plac Zbawiciela) in Warsaw [297]

Nevermind, gays can serve in military. That's been changed. So has blood donation which idk why they allow a group of people who have far higher HIV rates than anyone else to donate blood but whatever.

Also
A 2008 study revealed that 66% of Poles believed that gay people should not have the right to organize public demonstrations
69% of Poles believed that gay people should not have the right to show their way of life.
In 2011, according to a poll by TNS Polska, 54% of Poles supported same-sex partnerships, while 27% supported same-sex marriage. - A tiny majority supports gay marriage...


Never existed. Please show me any surveys or polls that show that the majority of Poles are for gay marriage, gay adoption, etc. You can't because they don't exist. Meanwhile I've posted a link with the summary of several polls that clearly show Poles are against expanding gay rights.


Majority of Poles don't care what a tiny degenerate fraction of the population have to say and the majority of Poles - as proven by link are against pride parades and a tiny fraction - 17% would NOT support a ban on pride parades.

News / Degenerate "rainbow" eyesore to disappear from Saviour Square (Plac Zbawiciela) in Warsaw [297]

52.5% thought that the current scale of promotion of gay content is excessive
Only 17% would NOT support a ban on gay parades.
Parliament repeatedly stuck down registered partnerships - gay marriage is illegal by constitution
Gays cannot serve in military
A poll in July 2009 showed that 87% of Poles were against gay adoption
. A 2006 Eurobarometer poll found that 74% and 89% of Poles respectively were opposed to same-sex marriage and adoption by same-sex couples.
"Homosexual propaganda needs to be limited, so children will not have an improper perspective on the family." - 56% agreed, 44% disagreed


None of them have anything to do with promoting fag behavior. They are systems of government that determine how people vote, whether there are multiple parties or not, etc. Not whether gays have rights or not - things like that are determined by a people and their elected representatives and clearly in Poland the politicians and people have repeatedly struck down legislature like gay adoption and registered partnerships because that's what the people want. That's true democracy at work - doing things that the people want and vote for.

Funny how there's so many Jews promoting LGBT in Poland... although not surprising at all. Every pride parade appears to have Israeli flags. Then again it's no surprise that (((NGOs))) are funding these movements. Just another way of fighting the goyim...

That's not at all what democracy means. It means a type of government with multiple parties and free elections where all eligible citizens can vote people to represent them (supposedly). It has nothing to do with introducing clown world into a population that doesn't want it. There's plenty of democracies where degeneracy is frowned upon and doesn't receive state support.

And Poland isn't even a democracy technically it's a republic.


It isn't false. Polls and surveys show that the majority of Poles are against gay rights - IPSOS, CBOS, etc. all show majority of Poles are against gay marriage, gay adoption, etc. So YOU stop spreading false info

Looks like its ready for another tune up. Perhaps a nice thick coat of epoxy or cement over the lighting system.


Again, polls and surveys show that the majority of Poles are against gay rights. There's no disputing that. And most of the LGBT supporters are pedaly themselves, KODerast pensioner types with too much time on their hands, soy boys, feminazis - the usual clown world types who dye their hair all sorts of colors and have dozens of piercings, and use this as a distraction from the fact that they're either suicidal, have STDs, chose some bullshit career and now are serving lattes, or all of the above.

Majority of Poles view them for the attention seeking freaks that they are. That's why whenever these people march no one cares when they're given gifts of rocks and bottles to their faces by groups several times larger than theirs. If the cops weren't protecting them they'd never march again.

News / Degenerate "rainbow" eyesore to disappear from Saviour Square (Plac Zbawiciela) in Warsaw [297]

A few pedaly and their Brussels boot licking mayor... That's it...

There's a reason why every single time a pride parade happens in Poland they need a police escort. The fairies were outnumbered 4 to 1 just now in Bialystok oh man if only the cops werent there...hell most the cops don't even want to protect them. Polls and surveys show that the majority of poles are against gay rights. The only reason they're even allowed to march is because they had to appease the liberals in the EU who want to see clown world in every country.

"Tu jest Polska, nie Bruksela, tu sie pedalowania nie popiera."

No because as soon as one crew gets locked up there's or killed another one that will replace them that same day. The only way I could think of is bringing a bunch of high paying jobs but that's not gonna happen when even people with degrees are making bullshit money.

If you were going to choose making 10 bucks an hour at some **** job or even 100 a day after taxes at some office or you make 200 300 plus everyday in cash even as a low level runner you'd do the same thing. And if you get caught you'll maybe do 6 months to a year.

Best to just let them kill each other off and not waste finite resources seems to be the only real solution.

Granted it's not really working and its not going to change. That areas been the same way decades I even came to the us. These blacks complain they live in dangerous ghettos with trash everywhere yet they're the ones perpetuating the cycle.

Chicago is becoming just like Detroit only in slow motion which imo is even worse. No wonder all the poles left.

That's where I use to live namely Harwood Heights. We use to have an investment property in Norridge. Although HH has changed though too. When we first got there the HIP, all the stores around there and our block was all white mostly Italians, Poles, Irish, etc. Gradually the Mexicans started coming.... before long there were loads of them at all the stores in the area.

Norridge though is still hanging on and is mostly white - lots of Poles there too


The suburb I live in is so peaceful to the point where people call the police whenever they see a black person - no joke. However, there was still a shooting last Halloween. A couple dindus crashed a party, some words were exchanged, and someone got shot.
