Language / Polish language would look better written in Cyrillic Script? [212]


As a native speaker of Anglo-jabber, you should be hte last person advocating a spelling reform of someforeign tongue, in particular a roughly phonetic language like Polish. English is one big phonetic monstrosity as everyone knows. Just a small side point.Have you ever wondered why Anglo-American typewriters lacked the basic French accents used in so many English terms and phrases. Instead we type cafe as if it rhymes with safe, facade as if it's fakade, also coup d'etat, deja vu, vis-a-vis and many,many more. Instead the British typewriters were a fraction-lover's extravaganza with separate keys for 1/2, 1/4, 1/3, 2/3, 3/8 and 5/8, when any fraction could be made using the slash (/), eg 3/67, 9/10. etc.

The bottom line is. leave Polish alone and start in on the many Anglo-oddities which could be mroe rationally spelt ruff, tuff, throo, nite, definishun, etc. Also the Christian name Sebashchun (Krishchun name Sebashchun). But to get rid of those insightly diagraphs why not borrow the super-efficient Cyrillic щ and spell it Sebaщun. (Kriщun name Sebaщun)!

It would hurt 99% of all ethnic Poles. What you're urging is the same as saying Poland should adopt a two-headed white eagle. Cyrillic, sickle & hammer, red star,Eastern Orthodox faith go beyond what they are in essence because of a strognly negative cultural and polticial connotation. Poles were subjected to 170 years of the Muscovite yoke, to russification and sovietisation, Russian Poland was called Vistula Land, Poles were sent to Siberia, Catholicism was persecuted... Need anyone say more?!

Wrong! Ż = Ж. In modern Polish ż and rz are pronounced indentically but previously they were not. You could hear the r and it sounded roughly like rż, as in today's Czech ř.

I agree only if you define progress as the wellbeing of a self-styled, elitist interest group such as post-communism masquerading as III RP.

Is a healsthy sign when diverse points of view circulate allowing people to judge which make the most sense. That is demcoracy in action. Persponally, "Gazeta Polska" can be a bit too radical for my liking, but it's good it exists for those who equate with their editorial policy. At any rate, PiS will protect Poland from a re-run of the POO scmaster/pro-foreign interest regime.

The last thing the Polish nation wants is a re-run of the Tusk scamster regime. By the next election Poles will know how a true people-friendly governemnt performs --for the good of the nation, not just a post-communist clique.

One can expect a 10 point spread between the two front-runners off and on from neck and neck to 30-20 or 40-30, but such fluctuations are the norm. When Tusk completes his seocnd term then all hell will break loose between him, Schetyna, Budka and Kopacz

POO will be lucky ot survive till the end of the term. Most likely in-fighting will leave them broken up into mini-parties doomed to a Palikot-style fate. There is every reason to expect at least 12 years of good-change rule, hopefully more.

One wonders why you never supply poll figures when POO is trailing far behind? Aren't you amongst those who claim poll results are inconclusive, unreliable and not indicative of anything?

BTW even if by some chance POO is No. 1 in some survey, that has absolutely no bearing on anything. The pathetic losers camp cannot pass a single law nor block a single legislative act because of the red card handed them by the fed-up Polish nation in October 2015. But there are things they can do: rant, rave, badmouth, occupy public buildings, prevent public officials from despatching their duties, initiate doomed-from-the-start motions to recall the government or individual ministers and cry in their beer.

No Polish should have a record of collaboration with Nazis, Fascists, Soviets, Polish PZPR operatives or other unsavoury types. They must be Polish patriots through and through and devoted first and foremost to the defence of their beloved homeland. And not in it for the money.

Your greatest statesman Tusk bears the repsonsibiltiy for his government's Smolensk muck-up. His health min. Kopacz promised the Rooskies that coffins of victims would not be opened in Poland but buried as is. That gave a sense of impunity to the Muscovites who had apparently scooped up assorted debris and body parts and packed them into random coffins. Finding cigarette butts in one of the coffins was bad enough, but today the TV news announced that in one of the coffins were found two heads, three arms and two pelvic bones -- in another besides a male victim was a woman's leg. Desecration of the deceased is a serious offence in Poland. Those Poles responsible for indulging the Rooskies should stand trial for gross negligence, preferably in front of the State Tribunal. Tusk, Kopacz and Arabskis hould be in the dock's front row!

Who then? Why not call those you disagree with -- Francoists? No, it was deifntely Stalin. The way your ilk treated those who supported normal marriage in the US revealed your formation's totalitarian streak. Those who dared disagree that homo hookups can be called marriage where threatened, blakcmailed, blackballed, sacked, suspended, demoted or run out of business -- all because they dared express their own point of view. Stalin did not persecute those who parroted his line and that's exactly how the pro-homo faction behaved.

Your overuse of the term "fascism" to describe conesrvative politics betrays the Stalinist roots of your anarcho-leftist mindset. It was "Uncle Joe" Stalin who started calling Germans fascists for the simple reason that he didn't want to confuse his subjects with national socialism. BTW, who invented the concept of Political Correctness? None other than Mao Tse-tung. Your whole political construct has totalitarian roots and nothing in common with democracy except for your rhetoric.

You mean in POO? They stormed the Sejm, occupied the speakers stand, roughed up MPS, prevented people praying at the graves of loved ones -- very fascistic sorts of things. They've even got their own Führer -- Donald von Tusk.

Why should anyone not Italian like fascism. It was made to order to promote Italian nationalism, and Mussolini fancied himself an heir to the Roman Emperors (as did Ceauşescu BTW). But what does that totally foreign concept have to do with Poland?

You are both wogs, aliens, foreigners, outsiders, intruders, clueless wannabes, etc. and no scrap of paper can prove otherwise. To be Polish one must be a native speaker of Polish and prefer speaking Polish to Anglo-jabber, feel Polish patriotism and religiosity, get a lump in the throat when "Jezszce Polska..." is sung, also at the sight of the crowned white eagle and Polish flag. Also be concerned first and foremost about Poland's national interests, not about the exploiters who have tried to turn Poland into a neo-colonial entity, about the welfare of the entire nation not jsut some self-styled elitist caste. Let's see how many agree or disagree!

You prefer anarcho-libertinism but call it "liberal democracy". The only true democracy is conservative democracy. Your social engineering only serves marxist socialism, national socialism, communism, social democracy and of course your beloved PC dictatorship. ALL ARE ON THE WAY OUT AND GOOD RIDDANCE! If you disagree, that only shows you have failed to see the writing on the wall.

News / Poland's post-election political scene [4080]


The only thing doomed to oblivion is the anarcho-leftist-libertine set-up being euphemsiticlaly passed off as "liberal democracy", except you don't know it yet. You remind one of the people who thouhgt after the dust of WW1 had settled, the monarchies would rebuild from wartime destruction and carry on. But they didn't. Mainly republics replaced the old monarchies. Everything ends. Instead of liberal dmeocracy with its anarcho-leftist utopianism,PC nonsense, social engineering, radiclaism, multi-culti, multi-sexy, gender, anti-clericalism, etc. conservative democracy is coming to the fore. It is a truer democracy becuase it thinks of the nation as a whole not a caste of elitists. It promotes what has been tried and tested, avoids change for the sake of change and only such changes that are an actual improvement. And this is happening not only in Poland but world-wide. Everywhere the leftist-liberal heresy is being gradually supplanted by sensible conservative thinking. The Schultzes, Timmermanses, Tusks, Petrus, Michniks, Obamas and Clintons are all has-beens and prime canidates for the rubbish heap of history.

Absolutely not. PRL-2 was spawned at the round table and came to life during Wałęsa's 1992 parliamentary coup that destroyed all semblance of democreacy. Henfceforth all the shots were to be called and most of the perks and privileges enjoyed by by the KOR-PZPR core group and the stooges and flunkies they admitted to their bandwagon. Weaned on the world's best propagandists, Uncle Joe & Company, they effectively pulled the wool over the eyes of patriotic Cahtolic Poland and through their slick and glib rhetoric managed to rule for a quarter of a century. But all things end, and Michnikite rule is disintegrating apace. Even Soros' handouts cannot save it.

If he was ever in the PZPR like Geremek, Kuroń, Balcerowicz, Kwaśniewski, Rzepliński and all the top military brass, he should definitely not be allowed to perform any public fucntion. The above-mentioned creeps who were card-carrying commies should have had a 10-year ban on holding public office. Instead they were allowed to create PRL-2, a hotch-potch of anarcho-leftist KOR-ites, ex-commies and fellow travellers calling themelves III RP.

Red-tainted ones are for sure. The Soviet system was entirely based on lies and disinformation, and Putin is perpetuating that skewed Stalinesque heritage. That's why the PiS narration is so refreshing and uplifting -- truth, honesty and decency all the way.

Nothing compromises Poland's security and defences more than Soviet-trained generals planted in Poland's armed services. No matter how "skilled" they may appear and how glib their narration is, one can never trust them 100%. That Soviet residue remains forever.
