If you experienced xenophobia, you would still feel that on your ass.
So it is tempting, and indeed likely, that what I experienced was xenophobia

If you mean defeating Gerries then no doubt Soviet Union did much more than western allies.
THEY saved Europe along with English, and some French, Poles, etc. more than the Russians.

the Russians came from Mongolia and probably therefore have more in common with the Turks.

We're not the same race If you didn't notice.
Not at all.
Interesting turn of phrase, "YOUR KIND"
We're not the same race If you didn't notice.
And by the way 'Murzynka' is a pretty derogatory word in itself
Not at all.

Yep. Racism against Poles is our fault and the reason is... racism of Poles... now that's "logic". You better care about the image of your kind.
The worrying thing is how perceptions of Poles is changing in the UK.

That's your bizzare interpretation. What I say that this is common behavior and I don't see a reason why It should be any worse in case of black people than It is in case of white.
you obviously seem to think that makes it all right

Life / Racism in Poland - the future [441]
I wouldn't blame her. Unfortunately this is how Polish history is often presented in America. Every nation has Its point of view on history and in case of Jews It is "Poles did nothing during the holocaust", which is not rational but this is how they feel. The problem is that very few people in Poland are interested in "promotion" of our point of view and Poles abroad are either first generation immigrants, who usually are doing crap jobs and don't really have any influence or next generations, who are already assimilated (Jews share the same religion, so It's much easier for them to stay one group and defend their interests) and except eating pierogi don't really give a damn.
It's like with "UK betrayed Poland" - this is how It looks like from Polish perspective but rationally speaking they couldn't do much and UK made a huge contribution to defeat of Gerries, so this is irritating for them, when Poles say so... they don't hear that too often but If Poles in America and elswhere had the same influence Jews have, that would be the common version of history.
I wouldn't say that Poles used to help Jews so much because small minority did that but what else could be expected in that situation ? Would average Jew risk his life (and his relatives) to save somone ?
