@Iron: once more you show your ignorance

Thanks you, I take it as a compliment coming from you.

In Louisiana and Québec, they are US and Canadian citizens respectively and that is the reason why they don't claim to be French but they of course don't hide being of French origin.

So what exactly is your point? Why you bringing up all the time that "Polonia" thingee? Overall majority of them are of Polish origin and that is that. What it has to do with your line or reasoning? Do you even have a line of reasoning? Is that you are just jabbering away all that comes to mind?

Even in some parts of the US, French culture is still well alive.

Hey really? Would that be because French are keeping to themselves and don't mix with others?

Jackie Kennedy's father (named Bouvier) was French from Nîmes

Wasn't his mother Polish Radziwl? According to your he was "Polonia" then.

Do you know that John Kerry is related to France t

Hey, now I know why he is an arrogant dick. Takes after France.

Polish national anthem praises a French guy

Do you mean that not so short as a propaganda has it a Corsican?

Stop with your double standard if you want to ve credible.

Can you afford to board Chattanooga choo choo?

As to Poles, there are a bit over 1,000,000 of them in France (some since the 19th century

Geez there must be something in the water, them living two centuries or more.

comfortable in France and are good French citizens

Are they not French of Polish origin? Boy oh boy you need to keep your narrative consistent and logical on the pain of sounding like an idiot.

what do you have for "arguement"???

Plenty. I have proved that you are just a chatter box. You prattle and prattle and make little sense if anything.

As to Poles, yes, they are closed as most of them are prejudiced and intolerant, as you are.

So there is still a hope there after all.

Who cares?

A Franchie old bird evidently.

No, I mean what you call "Polonia" and who claim to be "Polish".

What about them? I don't dig you! There are those that claim to be "Irish", "Italian" and so forth, what it has to do with anything? There some "French" in Louisiana and others in Quebec, they don't claim to be French because French are very snobbish and insular.

guess it's minimum 20 million

About 10 millions in the USA, and some where used to be Poland lands in the east. Few there and here, but what is your point? If not for their claims you wouldn't be able to tell them apart from their neighbors. What on Earth are you rumbling about?

When people are immigrants themselves

The point is these people are not immigrants, their ancestors were. Spot the difference!

MOST Poles, who seem to be genetically full of hatred.

Yes, and Jews are genetically to be usurers and French are born with a with flag stuck in their rectum, and 'we surrender' tooted on their forehead.

For a leftie bird you are full to the brim with prejudice and racism or is that hate?

As to Poles, when they are abroad, they keep themselves to themselves

How is that different to others? Especially to your preferred ethnicities and religions like Jews, Muslim but not only?
Immigrants form all walks of life and continents while immigrating in numbers tend to drift into the same regions and willing or not live in a close vicinity, is not as if they were pre-planning that.

check the % among Poles and for instance in countries like Britain or France where mixed couples are completely normal

Still they are overwhelming minority. Poles don't have colored people leaving in great numbers but Poland doesn't have heritage of colonialism, slavery and of importing cheap workforce into their country.

There were always materialistic and practical reasons for France and Britain looking as they look now. Funnily enough you look at the consequences for your greed motived actions and have a cheek to say that is the norm.

Hell, it isn't.
Are you stupid abut to claim that it has anything to do with racism attitudes of people in said countries?
Well, Moroccans I happened to knew in the time past claimed that French people are very racist. eat that!

In May 2015 the EU commission issued a report

Who cares for their reports. That is BS like all that commission.
So in Germany people are being murdered for being colored refugees is cool. where every day a refugee hostel go up in flames? In France Jews are hiding their identity to avoid being targeted, their places of worship are being attacked, and yes it is Poland that is xenophobic when no such things are going on and if an old headstone on unused Jewish cemetery is being sprayed by hoodlums ones a year - the POTUS feel the need to make a statement about it.

It stink to the high havens of double standards and hypocrisy but you all the same came here and prattle like a stupid little libtard.

All those figureheads for European corporations sitting in the EU commission are talking too - all they say is a lie and BS.

how many millions of Poles outside of Poland? I don't know, 20, 30, 40 millions

Born in Poland? I would say approximately between 3 to 5 millions. Some of them are living outside Poland temporary.
I think that you as another French-speaking bookkeeper for shady deals 'Junkier' or whatnot are familiar with shady and creative numbers.
Those people who identify themselves as Polish or of Polish origin outside Poland amount to about 22 millions. Those are people born and/or raised in foreign countries and they exist in those countries as a fully fledged citizens of those countries, so I don't see a reason to bring them into all that.

Given Poland's troubled history number of 4 millions out of 37 millions doesn't strike me as a particularly great percentage.

240,000

Seems like German press could learn something about providing true information at least when it comes to numbers adding imaginary 200 000 to 40 000 is a bit excessive.

Well at least they misinform an lie in style - Soviet style.

Krauts are not a race, so how can anything relating to them be ra

Progressivism has a new, or not that a new definition of racism,it is all and any generalization about social groups, other ethnicities, all and sundry minorities of all kinds and shape that can be interpreted as offensive.

And the Polish pro-democracy movement goes from strength to strength...

Thank you for your response. I'm asking because I can see there banner that spells POBUDKA and I surely know nothing according to you but I know enough to know that that organization has nothing to do with KOD or PO or other forces you are supporting. Would I be right that your picture shows those 1000?

1,000 Polish nationalists and followers of right-wing Catholic groups

?
I can say that there on the picture are more people than 1000 even 20 000. I think europeonline got it the other way around and there was 240 000 people from so called right wings groups and only 1000 of those commies that are going against grain.

Hence we have that picture explained.

Hmm those people you talking about surly make a lot of splash but they are supported by a tiny percentage of the society in Poland and that is something you are overlooking in your siding with minority who is supported mostly by foreigners and very few Poles.

All those judges should be fired and new people should be appointed in their stead.

An appalling individual

De gustibus et coloribus non est disputandum.

So the hitler salutes are just stretching their arms...

What is the Hitler salutes? They are ordering some refreshments - coffee for me, and me!

the original ONR was so dodgy that it was banned after 3 months - during a time when Poland was very much right wing.

Hmm.. given a fact that at the time Poland was under rule of an authoritarian government which came to power after a coup, your reasoning on a shaky ground here.

The same goes for that right wing label. That coup in 1926 had been supported by Socialist, Communists, all kinds of left wing entities plus by minorities (including Jews). The only people who would call that government a right wing were Bolsheviks at the time (to whom all parties were right wing except for themselves) and ideologically biased people today who have no clue.

It wasn't doggy, it was student/young people organization. Rmemebr that there were two organization called ONR, ONR (proper) and ONR - phalange. Obviously present day ONR looks for inspiration to traditions of ONR (proper).

If they were unacceptable for Sanacja, how can you find them in any way acceptable today

You must have a very queer view about Sancja. As to today there is noting that would make them unacceptable as far as I know.

original ONR, which as we as we all know - wasn't supportive of the underground Polish state and some of them even collaborated with the Nazis.

According to Soviet propaganda not to facts.

The fortunate thing is that their numbers are still very much limited, but the menace is growing

Yes, young people in Poland are catching up to their traditions and that is a good thing.

yesterday about a school director that had to institute bag searches and clothes

I hope that those kids are really kids that is they are underage, Otherwise I see a court case brewing

Back in the real world we see today

You kinda bring forth some argument but those are pseudo arguments. There is nothing new, nothing that their predecessors haven't done with abundance, somehow you were very quiet then. So forgive me but there is that funny thing while I'm reading your posts I hear nothing but squalling of a pig that lost her easy feed.

This really sickens me.

Tweedy, Poland is following Europe's example after all. Moment - don't make me laugh in Germany alone 290 people were killed due to real racism in years 1990- 2014. Trump that kmiocie.

In fact it has everything to do with the dead horses, as the horses' owners have made clear

Horse owners could be mistaken you know. That is all just not enough evidence if any to support your and their claims. That should be investigated properly not used in a propaganda war. .

Looks like you've misunderstood something there,

Nah, they are walking misunderstanding themselves.

following the entirely political firing of the stud's highly experienced Director and his replacement by a PiS political crony whose only experience with racehorse breeding was a course on how to milk cows?

you are missing something here, the first horse dead occurred while that highly experienced Boss had been firmly in charge, so change in management evidently has little to do with those dying horses.

Both museums had a 'Polish historical narrative and perspective' already

Nah, that is not a Polish historical perspective that is soviet BS.

You mean the very widely reported 'dream'

Do you really want to talk about fact and unadorned reality rather than biased anti-PiS propaganda? They are in charge and if you want to make an omelet you need first to break an egg. They have been elected amongst widely supported clamor for changes, to do something means to break status quo and that what they are doing - they have democratic mandate to do so, they enjoy popular support regardless of the noises that minority is producing. (by the way that minority is supported financially by the foreign players)

Do they make mistakes, faux pas, blunders? - sure they do but at least they do something that is more that can be said about PO.

Now, this issue with horses is just a propaganda item - a pure and simple no two ways about it. There is problem but PiS is responsible for that in the way they are responsible for a weather. Horses stared dying before ~PiS even won the last election.

Hey but you know all that, you just chose to use it in your propaganda war against people you see as your ideological enemies - that clear, you are not a bystander or an objective observer but you are a person that is deeply involved in the conflict.

the one that Greenpeace are in, the one that the European Union

First of they can peace off, they can hardly have legs to stand on this issue having chopped all their virgin forest for greed they have no ground to dictate to others what to do with their forest.

Having said that I think that they chopping some woods in order to save that forests from some kind of pestilence :) or whatnot. Whether or not that is a good decision or a wise decision I cannot tell as I have no idea and neither do you.

When they start trying to take over local authority museums

Here I agree with them. High time that Polish museums were passing Polish historical narrative and perspective. It is only fair and while you are talking a lot of things you should remember that Jewish's Museums in Warsaw that tell the story from a very narrow and biased perspective had been build (and maintained) mainly from the Polish taxpayers money have been build thanks to one of those twins you are accusing of fascism and totalitarian leanings.

You make no sense but that what an extreme ideology does to people.

Right.....?, they killed all those horses in order to make sausages from their meat! They are Chopping down a virgin forest to use that wood to fry those sausages. They will eat them laughing fiendishly while on their midnight secret feast out in the fields dancing around a fire, feasting, carousing etc..

Additionally they burn in those fires effigies of foreigners, Jews, gays and for a good measure jon's.

Why was a loyal servant of the party whose previous agricultural experience was limited to milking cows appointed to a position requiring knowledge of horses?

Due to that party victory in the last election and due to the prevailing practices in Poland that have not started nor end with PiS.

Ironside, and what's your take on what Kaczyński said?

I have no idea what he said. I don't think that overtly matters.

I'm criticising people who are convinced that if someone is criticising their beloved leader or party they can be doing that only because they are payed to do that

Glad you told me and we have cleared that misunderstanding. Because I was certain that you talking some bull. Is your critique pertain also to the people who every phrase of concern for the Polish national interest, talk about problems that need to be addressed, or about need for defence of Poland's interests and values see as a proof that they are Putin's incarnate, nationalists and whatnot? They must be being convicted that the doom is approaching?

You are obsessed. We are talking about Poland.
All the rest of that chit chat I just skipped. Has somebody hacked Paulina's account?

No, they're protesting against PiS breaking the law and constitution.

No, they are not.

arguments and not insults :)

That was a compliment.

I'm comparing attitudes, mentality, I

You are comparing nothing! Without proper research technique and methodology you are comparing hot air and then you are adding some hot air of your own.

The EU can impose some sort of sanctions for the breaking of the Polish law and acting against the Polish constitution by the Polish government since such actions are apparently breaking the EU law and the treaties Poland signed.

What the hell? That is an internal Polish affair and sanctions on Russia were introduced for the annexation of Crimea if I recall correctly.

You see, I'm not that stupid, am I? :D That's a double-edged sword ;)

What? Such constitutional struggles are nothing unusual, usually there is some consensus between all forces not to make a drama out of it with many participants in the interest if the state.

There's one thing that the West does good for sure though and knows lots about and that's democracy. They're far more experinced than we are in that department.

I don't know how much of press

So what are you talking about then? You are mocking people who claim that it matters who owns what, asking questions, learning about facts or talk turkey?

Well then you have completely no idea why people are protesting

Well, they are protesting against PiS winning democratic election hence immediately after that fact KODs sprigged out. Banners with slogans change in time from protesting against government not displaying the EU flags on one occasion to all issues that pertains to Tribunal, in meantime all acts and bills that government introduced to defence of Lech Walesa even though government has nothing to do with the new documents that came to light.

To sum it all any and each pretext is good to attack the government for the one reason only - them being PiS.
So, will you came clean and admit that or you are going to lie about your reasons for your stance? Remember that I have your posts above and I can expose any lies in no time at all.

Ironside, it seems you can't get your head around what I'm saying.

See that probably because I have never pictured you as being stupid. Head strong - yes, stubborn - sure, leftie - often, stupid - nah such a thought has never crossed my mind until now.

I compared the comments of people like you to the comments of nationalistic Putin's supporters. Because they're exactly the same.

Not exactly the same surely. For one they must been expressed in different languages. Seriously though don't you kids learn nothing nowadays? How about contexts, additional circumstances and reality on the ground.

You mean to say that you take words and compare them with words. Are you for real? Are you sure that logic and logo are not the same in your mind?

Do I really need to humiliate you further by proving to you that what you say here is just a pure nonsense? Do you want me to?

You have the same mentality.

Yes millions of people in different cultures and countries with different values and languages, of different gender, age, education, experiences and abilities are all the same mentality. Why? Cause you say so. Aren't you striving to be modest you genius you?

What was your population sample and what methods did you employ while conducting your research?

No, but judges from the Constitutional Tribunal

So what? What wrong with that? Do you think that judge should be above the law?

As I wrote before - any autocracy and dictatorship use this mantra (

Is that suppose to be some kind of an argument? If so you have failed. How the fact that weakness and conflicts inside of the same country might and are being exploit for the benefit of other parties pertain to your remark?

Are you saying that is not true?

I've made logical comparisons

Until you learn the difference between logic and a logo you wont be able to do that.

Or when Poles wnated interventions form the West during commie times? Those traitors! lol

Don't be dumber than you have to be. If you don't see difference I won't help you.

Opposition has a certain rights and duties if they fail to fulfil those they are not longer acting as an opposition by as so called opposition for the lack of a better expression.

They are bringing a climate of change into a stale, inefficient and corrupted state.

Bah, that emotions were talking and I stressed that. Anyhow many from those people deserve to be shot after due process. No, not because their are protesting, but because what they done in the past(not all protesters) . That justice

And don't pretend that you don't know that I can think for myself.

You can be influenced or misinformed like anyone including me. Russia and Poland have different cultures, so different that I say they belong to different civilisations and what happens in Russia doesn't necessary needs to happen in Poland - that simple enough.

Yes, Poland isn't Russia yet, it's just heading that way. It's all very comforting, indeed...

Only in your mind.

It looks like both apples and oranges are prone to going bad and rotting.

Drama and some more of a drama. Stop looking at Russia look at Poland and learn about facts.

Sure, when PiS was in opposition and slandering Polish government

I'm not aware of the instances that PiS was slandering Polish government. If they attempted to talk about Smolensk (I'm guessing) then because it was obviously a major failure of the Polish government and all the world could see it.

That failure to investigate properly Smolensk lowered position of Poland significantly.

I'm not a moron. I have a brain. And I'm actually using it.

I know but you belong to majority of Poles who don't understand politicks and who don't understand of so called west. Also you are often misinformed.

In fact most Poles feels more than think. Those who think do so in such weird categories when in comes to politicks that it renders their thinking void.

I shall destroy you, like many before you ;D :P

Go ahead. :_) I'm looking forward to it but use some real arguments. Compering Poland to Russia really doesn't cut it.

When I write what they like or I criticise whom they dislike I'm "hitting nails on the heads" but when I criticise them or sth they defend I'm treated like the greatest retard on this planet

If you are right I say so if you are wrong I have no calms to say it. Simple.

How do you like that, Ironside?

What is to like? If he really said what is implied then I disagree with him. I think that society in Poland should be rebuild around Dmowski's idea and I'm all for a grass root movement rather that around parties or a leader..

However his words were misinterpreted and misrepresented so often that I wouldn't take a word of any journalist for it.

"interfering in internal affairs"

Time you consider that concept seriously instead of making fun of it.

that's a Russian mantra

I think you know too much and at the same too little about Russia for that to do you any good. Comparing Poland and Russia? Russia never had any democracy and all that patients and they don't understand that concept.

It seems to me that PiS is like Putin

I guess maybe because you are clueless? Feelings and similarly sounding expressions doesn't automatically translate into sameness of the issues. Comprende?

Just you wait, they will help you to become yokels of the German empire.
