You think you are complex but you are not.

Well, it looks like that simple Polish comic strip was too complex for you :)))

It's cliche now that women don't appreciate anything men do for them.

Not true, I very much appreciate that comic strip by Żartowniś Ponury (who is a man, btw lol), or rather his sentiment that he expressed through it :)))

I asked you previously in another thread what feminists bring to a relationship and unsurprisingly you never responded. Cat got your tongue? :)

Sorry, I haven't seen that comment of yours :)

Yes, men shouldn't be performing kind gestures toward entitled, ungrateful female narcissists.

I see that, just like Alien apparently, you didn't understand that comic strip lol

You really don't like women much, do you...

How did you possibly get such an impression??? ;D ;D *irony mode again*

I totally understand how church monks live without women, it's %100 replaceable!

Do you understand nuns too? :D

*Prince, sorry. 🤦

Russian hatred

A fragment from the November Uprising's manifesto that I linked to earlier:

"The Polish nation has risen against the humiliation and subjection with a manly decision of not returning to the shackles it has broken, not laying down the weapons of their ancestors, until it wins independence and power, the only guarantees of freedoms, until it secures those freedoms, which are by right theirs doubly due to the honourable heritage of their ancestors and the urgent need of our century; until it reunites with the brothers subdued by the Saint Petersburg's throne, frees them from this yoke and make them part of its rights, freedom and independence. We are not motivated by any national (*ethnic?) hatred towards Russians, a great Slavic tribe, just like us."

I find it interesting that they felt the need to stress that they don't hate RuSSians. Did the tsarist propaganda even back then claim that Poles hated Russians? That they're "Russophobes" revolting "for no reason" out of pure spite and "blind hatred" towards Russians? lol 🤔

Furiosa

Compare these two photos. Doesn`t the man have the right to feel cheated on - he probably believes he married a different woman. :):):):)

lol Well, I doubt that such transformation happened overnight... You don't grow such muscles in a few days :) Besides, if I were married to a PiS politician, I'm sure I'd feel like punching something too ;D 😂

But who is hurting them and why?

The cat is talking about women, not other cats. Żartowniś Ponury posted this for Women's Day. Men are giving flowers to women on Women's Day - get it?

And by "W cieniu ostatnich wydarzeń" (in light of recent events) I'm guessing he means that latest rape and murder in Warsaw.

Why this cat?

I don't know - that's just his thing, I guess. Sometimes he puts people in his comic strips and sometimes this cat. Maybe it's because cats are known for being independent and having an attitude? His comic strips are pretty blunt.

Cats are adorable.

And this :))

Surprise! NEWSFLASH!

Breaking!

"Men Like To Be Taken Care Of"

Surprise! NEWSFLASH!

Breaking!

"Women Like To Be Taken Care Of Too." They also like it when their husbands are taking care of their children.

I know - "SHOCKING"! lol

To make her feel special, feel loved, feel wanted. In such a way, that she feels there exists nobody for you, but her.

Is this a small thing?

OMG

But she's providing that for you too, isn't she? So she's making you feel special, loved, wanted AND BESIDES THAT is doing everything for you in the house AND is taking care of and rasing YOUR children. So she's doing something EXTRA (and a lot of it). And what are YOU doing in this relationship?

Btw, I'd really like to know what it means for a RuSSian man (or any other man for that matter) "to make her feel special, feel loved, feel wanted. In such a way, that she feels there exists nobody for you, but her."? :D

You tell her that you love her and that she's beautiful from time to time? You buy her flowers on Women's Day? You have sex with her when you feel like having sex? :D

Damn, that sounds like a lot of HARD WORK! :D ;D *irony mode*

(Pity you didn't choose to stay quiet at least on this day. 🤮)

History / History of Polish-Russian relations [186]

Simply, I am saying that other priorities took precedence over any Russian hatred.

And I'm telling you that regaining independence/fighting against the foreign rule was the main priority of every Polish uprising, including the November Uprising. It was directed against the RuSSian rule - it wasn't some universal, general fight against kings and aristocracy:

"The Manifesto of the Parliament of the Polish Kingdom about the rising of the Polish nation (December 20 1830)":

pl.m.wikisource.org/wiki/Manifest_obu_izb_sejmowych_Kr%C3%B3lestwa_Polskiego_o_powstaniu_narodu_polskiego_(20_grudnia_1830)

The uprising broke out, when Poles were informed that they were being sent to France to suppress the July Revolution and the Belgian Revolution.

That was what triggered the uprising. But the situation was building up before that. And you seem to be convinced that this was the main reason behind the uprising, which wasn't the case.

People wanted power. Not just from Russians, but from kings and emperors.

So that's why insurrectionists put count Adam Jerzy Czartoryski as the head of The Provisional Government? It doesn't sound very "revolutionary" to me ;)

The Polish revolt was driven by these same sentiments, much more than any anti-Russian position as you try to force in this argument.

Really? What kind of sentiments were driving the Kościuszko Uprising and the January Uprising then, according to you? :)))

This concept was alien at the time.

You are making ahistorical arguments.

Nope. There were Polish independence organisations at that time and RuSSians persecuting them was one of the reasons for the Polish revolt. I think you need to have a read:

Why are almost all police homosexuals? Who knows why - I'm just stating the facts.

Well, you aren't stating any facts... lol You're just stating what is the stereotype about the police in RuSSia (apparently). There's no such stereotype about the police in Poland, for example, so I don't know where RuSSians got such an idea... 🤨

In fact, most policemen are by default assumed to be homosexuals.

Life / Grisly crimes in Poland [92]

Why don't you climb down off your feminist high horse and admit that these "people" were actually two women?

Because in one of the articles I've read that CCTV recording has shown other people besides those two women walking by when the rape was taking place and they didn't do anything either. I mentioned those two women, because they were the only ones who bothered to go the police (unfortunately after the fact) and give some explanation as to why they didn't react. And since I don't know the gender of the rest of the passersby recorded by the CCTV camera - I wrote "people".

I will respond to the rest of your rant when I have more time to read it :)

Life / Grisly crimes in Poland [92]

Part Works (the kind that came out every month and people collected them in a binder).

I was collecting "Praktyczny Kurs Rysunku i Malarstwa" and "Świat Wiedzy" when I was a kid/teen :))

Russian occupation was good for Poland in at least one aspect - they became funny.

You have no proof that Poles weren't funny before the RuSSian occupation :)

A woman can be hurt only once by a guy. The second time, it's consensual.

Rather "habitual". Such women usually come from homes where there was violence - directed at them or their mother or their siblings. They simply don't know anything better (and it's even possible they think they don't deserve anything better):

zdrowie.pap.pl/psyche/dlaczego-kobiety-tkwia-w-przemocowym-zwiazku-siedem-przyczyn

Obviously those women "don't like it". But that's the only life they know. They're damaged and they need some serious therapy.

It's fine to have an interest in crimes and detection however there is to be a way to pick up on people earlier.

True. That part is unofficial, but there's more info here that probably may say more about him:

onet.pl/informacje/onetwiadomosci/widzial-doriana-s-zaraz-po-ataku-tej-twarzy-nie-zapomne/yz1nc7e,79cfc278

Half an hour after the rape he went shopping and according to the shop assistant he behaved as if nothing happened...
Also, he lived with his girlfriend and according to the neighbours arguments and shouts started when he moved in (info from another article). According to the neighbours, judging by the sounds coming from their flat, he was hitting her.

after snapping his own baby's spine over his knee.

Jesus...

That and the arrogance, the really dangerous ones never think they'll be punished for their crimes.

According to the police he was surprised that they found him.

This is an extreme crime for a first offense (if it is... have their been reports that he 'known to the police' as they say?)

Judging by what I found in other articles - he was convicted before for theft and possession of drugs. According to unofficial information the police found articles about sexual crimes and books about serial killers at his place.

I suspect drugs played a role though I'm not sure what drugs can unleash such violence...

It didn't have to have anything to do with drugs... There are psychos out there who are rapists, serial killers, etc. as I'm sure you're aware...

Yes, such an appalling tragedy,. A Belarussian woman came to Poland for better life and got murdered by a Polish garbage. :(:(:(:(

She was an orphan, btw - her parents had their parental rights taken away from what I've read. How much bad luck can you get in life... Jesus...

What adds to the tragedy and makes me feel sick to the stomach is that people literally walked by, saw what's going on and didn't help her - they didn't even call the police. The CCTV recording has shown two women walking by the gate when the rape was taking place and they stopped for a moment. From what I've read they went to the police only after the news of the rape broke out. They testified that they didn't realise a crime was taking place - they thought that it was a couple of homeless people having sex and "taking it too far" and when they stopped the man told them to leave in "a vulgar manner".

The thing is - having sex in public is illegal in Poland. If they called the police - they could've saved her life :(((

So, the conclusion is - you can get raped and killed in plain sight in Poland and noone will help you. That's the reality.

Look at the pathology in the comments under this article:

o2.pl/informacje/brutalny-gwalt-i-zabojstwo-lizy-w-centrum-warszawy-dlaczego-nikt-nie-zareagowal-dramatyczny-apel-psychologa-7002597804071488a

One man wrote that you'd have to take a leave from work for one day in order to testify at the police station and that's why people don't call the police o_O Who cares that a human being is getting raped and killed... Taking a leave from work for a day - now that's a serious "bother" in comparison... 😢

Btw, I know this mentality very well, because I've experienced this kind of indifference and inaction in Kielce (so not such a big city like Warsaw) more than once. One time I talked a woman into staying and waiting for the police, because she witnessed how a car drove into a teenage girl when she was crossing the street. The woman saw that the girl had a green light as a pedestrian and I thought that was an important information. She wanted to go home, because she thought it would be a bother - that she would have to testify in the court and such. So I stayed with her until the police came (the girl was already taken to the hospital by an ambulance). The police didn't seem to be doing their job either - a police car stopped near the sight of the accident and they just sat in the car. Me, the witness and two other women were waiting nearby for them to come out and ask some questions, but they didn't. So I finally lost my patience, went over to them and told them that this lady saw everything. They went out of the car and I left only when they started talking to the witness.

How do you know? Facebook?

It's plainly written here in this article that he's a Pole and a resident of Warsaw:

wydarzenia.interia.pl/mazowieckie/news-marsz-milczenia-przejdzie-przez-warszawe-z-apelem-do-polityk,nId,7369530

Such scum needs to be locked with the key thrown away.

I agree.

The patient died today before noon.

:(((

if the result confirms that the woman died as a result of a brutal attack

lol

Sorry, I know that an autopsy needs to be done, but this fragment made me "lol" nevertheless...

This reminded me of a case that happened some years ago in my city. A girl/young woman entered a staircase in a block of flats. A man entered right after her and grabbed her from behind. She struggled and fortunately managed to escape. Everything got filmed by a CCTV camera (the video was posted in the article or shown on TV), but I haven't heard about the police finding him. I was in awe of this girl, because that was a young, tall, well-built man, so I can imagine he was strong (he didn't have a knife though). I even remember thinking "Why a man like that would want to rape a woman? He shouldn't have problems with attracting women." As I googled for it now - it turned out there were similar cases in Kielce at that time:

It's very funny.

it's as much about modern Poland than anything that happened in the past.

That's one of the things that makes it so funny and relatable.
