News / Poland - A True Bastion and Defender of Free Speech [250]


Agreed and the other poster disingenuously isn't comparing like with like anyway. No surprise there.

The giant menorrah erected in the Sejm and lit by religious clergy celebrates a time, place, event and people foreign to Poland and Polish history.

The Krzyż sejmowy however wasn't installed by religious clergy and has never been used for religious ceremonies.

It was placed by MPs and commemorates the memory of Jerzy Popiełuszko who was murdered during the 1980s by communists (just like the other poster who complains about the cross being displayed (go figure)). Even Agnieszka Holland made a film about his murder called "To Kill a Priest".

The cross is a direct and intimate part of the history of both the Sejm and Poland and should be included and preserved in the collection of the Sejm Library's Museum.

@Novichok

True. Remember all the nationwide lawsuits in America over the years when someone wanted to display a simple nativity scene even if it was on their own property?

Goes without saying who the complaints always were.

And now we are to believe that Hannukkah celebrations on government property or in government buildings are fine. Where are all the atheists now and why are they not suing over this?

News / Poland - A True Bastion and Defender of Free Speech [250]

So what's the answer?

Hannukah is a Jewish holiday observance marking the dedication of their religious temple in Jerusalem back in the 2nd century BC.

Jerusalem is thousands of miles away from Warsaw.

So again why is a religious event from a different century and far away place in a foreign country being celebrated inside a Polish government building which is used to debate and enact legislation?

News / Poland - A True Bastion and Defender of Free Speech [250]

So you admit there was a Jewish religious ceremony held in the Polish parliament.

Where in the Polish constitution does this say this is permitted?

Which other groups held religious ceremonies in the Polish parliament?

What a conveniently short memory you have.

That or your disjointed posts and denials about you wrote in them suggest you are suffering from delirium.

Go read posts 1 - 4.

- "International student" complains he isn't being handed an IT job in Poland.

- Guest poster tries to share some common sense.

- You attack the guest poster calling him an "idiot' and "drunk" and then boast that "loads of Indians are working software jobs in Poland."


Read again what others have tried to explain to you.

Novichock provided you a very simple explanation:


And therein lies your problem. You are so woke that you resolutely refuse to see differences and think denying reality somehow makes you look smart and virtuous. But it doesn't. Like I already said, you are a foolish luddite and unqualified to speak on the topic of AI.

Not at all. Thanks for the assistance. She's off her rocker again today and would never admit I'm right anyway.


It isn't relevant at all and she is too obtuse and obstinate to realize it.

Literally, she reads an old man's work on programming, concludes that AI is just software, and therefore it's great that "there are loads of Indians working in software jobs for companies in Poland."

Never mind that the tech industry wants AI in order to produce value and increase profits by reducing and eliminating high costs and inefficiencies caused by labor both in the tech industry itself and other sectors of the economy.

Nope, none of this matters.

Let's face it, the Irish housewife is bitter and longing for more unneeded third worlders to come to Poland so she can feel like she is back home in Ireland.

You already stepped in your own muck. Backpedaling now won't help you save face. You're only making a bigger mess of yourself.


Look, we get it.

You aren't qualified to speak on this topic like amiga500 said and you are just another female naysayer like Novichok pointed out.


That's like saying the Wright brothers' planes were just wooden frames covered in canvas and nothing more could become of their work.

And yet just 66 years later (basically one lifetime) men landed on the Moon and today airplanes crowd the skies in a multi-billion dollar industry carrying millions of people and millions of tons of freight all over the globe every single day.

Alan Turning is credited with being the first man to come up with the idea of software back in 1935. Now 88 years later (again one lifetime for many now) AI is being used to autonomously write software.

Oh, and drones don't need pilots either because their software is so sophisticated and use of sensors and global communications means they can fly autonomously anywhere and respond to conditions locally on their own. And these are still the early days of innovation for that sector.

For you, thinking big means importing millions of economic migrants from the third world so Western women can have a wider variety of restaurants and more options for an exotic shag without having to travel very far. For you, life is about having convenience and choice brought to you thanks to the hard work of innovation and exploration done by men.

That's why you see AI as just software. You are dismissive because you haven't derived any immediate and personal benefit from it yet.

Then once all the work is finished and there's lots of money being made you will be crying that there aren't enough women being represented.

Many such cases all over the world and throughout human history.

Work / Can any international computer science student get software development job in Wrocław or Warsaw? [45]


Yes, good and timely advice.

The OP's sob story said a lot by what was never mentioned.

This "international student" blames Poland and companies in Poland for not doing enough to hire foreign students like him upon graduating but says nothing that the government and businesses in his own homeland are far worse by offering no help or hope at all.

Such students openly admit they only come to Poland because it is cheaper to obtain degrees and certifications. But it is the schools who are in business too and they are selling a dream that certain industries have high demand for labor and therefore going to their school will pave the way to a job.

Unless the schools have guaranteed placement programs with companies then their graduates are nothing more than yet more job seekers on their own along with thousands of others.

The OP never said how his knowledge, skills and abiliteis made him standout candidate and would benefit a company. He only laid out his expectation that he should be given a job in Poland.

And my, hasn't the industry changed so much in such a short amount of time since the OP first made his post:

ChatGPT may be coming for our jobs. Here are the 10 roles that AI is most likely to replace.

Number 1. Tech jobs (Coders, computer programmers, software engineers, data analysts)

Number 5 on the list of jobs being replaced by AI were teachers (another PF favorite). :)

News / Grzegorz Braun extinguishes Hanukkah candles in Polish Parliament [459]


I know, right? Hours have passed and I can't wait for him to comeback on here and "educate" us all.


Whoa! You must think everyone is impressed by this! Clearly you are!

But did you know that "Jewish law provides no scriptural or Talmudic support for the post of a "chief rabbi." and "The position arose in Europe in the Middle Ages from governing authorities largely for secular administrative reasons such as collecting taxes and registering vital statistics."?

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chief_Rabbi

No, you obviously didn't know this.

Here is some more Hanukkah trivia:

"The earliest use of candles is often attributed to the Ancient Egyptians. While the Egyptians were using wicked candles in 3,000 B.C., the ancient Romans are generally credited with developing the wicked candle before that time by dipping rolled papyrus repeatedly in melted tallow or beeswax. Hanukkah, the Jewish Festival of Lights which centers on the lighting of candles, dates back to 165 B.C."

candles.org/history/

So, here's another question, how are candles "properly" lit?

Does it require someone with an unofficial bureaucratic quasi-religious title with origins in Medieval Europe to light a culturally appropriated waxed wick invented thousands of years before during the reigns of Egyptian pharaohs and Roman emperors?

That's you because you don't understand that an estrogen fueled world will only result in humanities extinction.

Women don't believe in cooperation and they don't want to serve each other.

Women compete with each other to find the top 10% of men who can protect and provide for them.

And when they can't find the top 10% of men they turn to inceldom and focus on making an "amazing career" for themselves or try to avoid work and claim state benefits for fake disorders like fibromyalgia or long-COVID. And when these options don't work out for them then most women end their lives in the company of many cats and surrounded by many empty cartons of boxed wine.

News / Grzegorz Braun extinguishes Hanukkah candles in Polish Parliament [459]


You're wrong.

Poland's constitution makes clear that "The relationship between the State and churches and other religious organizations shall be based on the principle of respect for their autonomy and the mutual independence of each in its own sphere."

fra.europa.eu/en/law-reference/constitution-republic-poland-8

So, what can you tell us about Polish symbols being displayed on or in synagogues and yeshivas?


Nope. The US makes a big deal about the separation between the two while repeatedly appointing Supreme Court justices such as Ruth Bader Ginsburg; Stephen Breyer; Abe Fortas; Louis Brandeis; Benjamin Cardozo; Felix Frankfurter; Arthur Goldberg; and Elena Kagan all of whom have imposed their polarizing views on everyone.

Do you believe there should always be a "Jewish Seat" reserved on the Supreme Court even though there is nothing written in the US Constitution about this?

"An NPR report in 2009, detailed the mythical "Jewish seat"; four of the five previous Jewish justices had immediately succeeded each other, as if bestowing the spot to the next Jew."

Life / Polish women who made amazing careers against patriarchal society [128]


Possible but ever so unlikely.

There is no social pressure anymore, at least not in the West, to start a relationship and stay in one.

And with women focusing on having their own "amazing careers" or filing for divorce at the drop of a hat and taking everything if they do bother to get married there is no longer an incentive for men to waste time and resources entering into a relationship.

Men can't be the only ones being committed to a relationship while women are still exploring options and running away if something better comes along.

Life / Polish women who made amazing careers against patriarchal society [128]


Not at all.

It's women who have the innate insecurities and thus their desire for a man who is unrealistically taller than themselves. Not only for attention seeking purposes but to ensure their own physical protection. This means a man is expendable too in case he loses in an altercation with another man or gets arrested. She'll just move on with her life and try to find someone else or focus on having an "amazing career" instead.

Plus their quest to find a man who is rich, rich, rich is to ensure all their needs, wants and whims can be satisfied even following a divorce which by the way are nearly always initiated by women.

You only lucked out because communism limited women's choices at the time and your communist party connections made up for your own physical and financial shortcomings. :)


Of course I do! We men not only believe in true love but we can feel it too and want it not only for ourselves but also for the ones we love. Civilizations are an expression of men's true love. They exist because it is men who want to show their love and provide a better life for their loved ones. Women on the other hand put in the least effort but derive the most benefit.

This is why romance novels and romantic comedy movies are so popular with women but not men. For women true love is fictional because in their own life love is transactional. And they charge men a premium even when all they have to offer in themselves is heavily used and damaged goods.

BS. That's feminist dogma you are spewing.

Western societies are feminist and it has been that way for generations stretching back to the last century.

West societies are matriarchal not patriarchal.They are social system in which opportunities and positions of privilege are primarily given to women and at the expense of men.


Nope.

Western women put themselves first due to their solipsistic nature and their unfettered hypergamy is why it is women who are the ones not interested in marriage.

Western women have total control over reproduction decisions too and that is why Western birthrates are below replacement levels.

But who cares if society itself dies? Let's instead celebrate women having made "amazing careers" for themselves!

"On July 5, 2023, the Lithuanian Constitutional Court ruled that legislation permitting the use of original-name spellings for certain Lithuanian citizens in documents using Latin-based characters, which do not exist in the Lithuanian language, is in accordance with the Constitution of Lithuania...Previously, the use of non-Lithuanian characters was allowed only by court order in a procedure similar to that for legally changing a name. Most of the time, members of the Polish minority in Lithuania were required to change their names or adjust their spelling to ensure conformity with the Lithuanian alphabet."

It is a realistic view.

Like I explained already, EU's viceroy Tusk doesn't care about Poles and his priorities are globohomo.

"Tusk said Poland would be a loyal ally of the United States and a committed member of NATO, and signaled his determination to mend Warsaw's ties with Brussels after years of feuding over issues ranging from judicial independence to LGBT rights."

It will never happen.

Your personal lord and savior had all the time in the world during his decades-long career and in different influential political roles to do something but didn't.

Brussels' reinstalled viceroy in Poland doesn't even have a record of genuinely caring for Poles in Poland let alone anywhere else.

But don't take my word for it, take his!

"Mr. Tusk has sometimes alienated potential voters, particularly more traditional-minded ones in small rural towns and villages. Mr. Tusk offended millions of Poles in 2005 by dismissing conservatives as a "mohair coalition" - a reference to the berets many older women wear to church. Mr. Tusk apologized but struggled for years to shake off an image of haughty contempt."

nytimes.com/2023/12/12/world/europe/donald-tusk-poland-prime-minister.html

Not only that but he has publicly stated that he regards himself as a Kashubian minority member living in Poland rather than Polish.

So what makes you think he will care now about the fate of the Polish diaspora in Lithuania?

Answer: He won't.
