News / News article on Poland absorbing Ukrainian refugees [47]


I am not a Polish member but I have a reaction...

I said they would not be leaving because there is nothing back home to come back to.

Hey, amiga, thanks. That relieves me of the temptation to respond.

News / Mr President Joe Biden comes to Poland again [177]

The US, with its open doors for Chinese spies aka "students" and the American manufacturing all in China, is well-advised not to criticize countries like Hungary.

Great post, btw.

Define "rich" in pounds or dollars.
Let me guess...You have no idea so that claim was just a feel-good mental fart.

Now, I am proud of you. There is only one way to handle demagogues - ask them to define the terms they use.

It does not work when an immigrant counts the minutes till he can go back to Poland.

He gets up in the morning thinking about Poland, goes to work thinking about Poland, and goes to bed thinking about Poland while imagining that somebody there is waiting for him. In the meantime, he reads Polish papers, watches Polish TV, has only Polish "friends", and insists his kids speak Polish.

He votes for anybody with a -ski in his last name - no matter how stupid or corrupt.

The way to be is by emigrating mentally before your body gets on the plane.

Life / A couple of questions about the LGBT movement in Warsaw. [31]


You would be fired here for this blasphemy.


Why would anyone sane care what mentally ill freaks champion?

Life / A couple of questions about the LGBT movement in Warsaw. [31]


I responded to your "LBGT movement" negatively because it elevates perverts and sickos to the same level as women's liberation or equal rights movement for ethic minorities, for example.

LGBT is a mental disorder, not a "movement".
On top of this, combining mentally ill LGBTs who, btw, cannot get pregnant with abortion rights is nonsense. If you know how a pair of Ls or Gs can get pregnant, please post how it's done.

Abortion laws go with LGBT mental disorders as much as flying F-35 does with blindness.

Yes, you are if your instinct of self-preservation is still operational. Even Jessie Jackson is a racist. He said so...

Off-Topic / Russian Views On Poland and Vice Versa [414]

Thanks. I blew it.

American: We have special meds for those who claim that a man cannot get pregnant. Russian: We have special meds for those who claim a man can.

American: We have two kinds of women. With dicks and without. Russian: (speechless).

American: Our schools are gun-free zones. Russian: Our schools are LGBT-free zones.

Off-Topic / Russian Views On Poland and Vice Versa [414]

An American on visit to the USSR brags about freedom of speech and says we can criticize our president. The Russian replies: we can, too.

An updated version: American: We are better. We have 32 genders and friends to fight proxy wars for us. Russian: Oh crap...We have only two and have to fight our own damn wars.

Off-Topic / Russian Views On Poland and Vice Versa [414]


It's as bad or worse. I don't tell jokes well but there was this joke in Poland way back about Polish kociol in Hell as the only one without Satan standing by it to make sure nobody escapes.

Why? Because Poles inside would make sure nobody does. That's the best I can do...

To the great credit to Americans, they are not envious. When we see a neighbor with a new car, we congratulate him and buy one, too.


What is your projected date of Russian surrender?
To his credit, PAK said Feb 25, 2024. I said: WHFO. So what say you?

...but now Poles do not want to be reminded of this little factoid as this spoils the movie in which West is very good and Russia very, very baaaad.


I detect sarcasm.

History / The Battle of Stalingrad saved Poland [34]


According to the plan the US and the UK approved. Hence, "the sellout".

History / The Battle of Stalingrad saved Poland [34]


So fu*cking what. Even Soviets didn't like other Soviets but that does not mean you want to fight them and die since there was zero chance AK could possibly prevent them from taking over and imposing the government to their liking. Zero. It goes under "Tough Sh*it" as a movie title.

With the US blessing, btw...Hence, "the sellout".

History / The Battle of Stalingrad saved Poland [34]


No. I am saying that in the summer of 1944 only Hitler didn't know that the war was over. When that moment comes, the mouse should tend to its little mice in a deep hole and just wait till the big elephant kills the smaller and sicker one. If it can give the big elephant directions and other intelligence, great. Just don't play a hero or you may be squashed like a rodent.

Metaphoric enough?

History / The Battle of Stalingrad saved Poland [34]


Those two actions were not mutually exclusive. The Red Army would, of course, benefit from an uprising that is coordinated with them.

They were smart enough to know that the WU was coordinated against them and militarily stupid. There is a simple rule in life: never yell at a perp who is ready to run away. AK violated this rule and made the Soviets unhappy. So they said, fu*ck you, a-holes. Have it your way. Your way turned out to be 200,000 dead Poles.

That's my point of view. What is yours? That AK wanted to assist the Soviets in killing Germans or, maybe, to be first as a political move.


I am happy to admit that we didn't see any NKVD or Red Army guys in my entire life in Poland till I left in 1966.

How many NKVD "divisions" were there in Poland at the peak? Where did they stay? Were they free to mingle?
A division is 10,000 men, as far as I know.

It's not me being pedantic. It's my bullsh*it detector being in perfect order. I also assume that every deviation from normal is deliberate. Like this one...


In my entire life, I never read a sentence like the one above - until now, in the sea of Russia hating idiots. And then there is this moronic lowercasing in a sentence that clearly shows the author's ability to use capital letters. Tell me that "red army" was not deliberate.


No. The Red Army was on the way to Berlin and chose Poland as the shortest way to get there, Liberating Poland from Germans was an unavoidable byproduct. So, no, the Red Army didn't enter Poland to "defend" Poland as your statement insinuates. In 1945, Germans were running for their lives.

It was AK that pis*sed them off and slowed them down enough to kill 200,000 Poles and level Warsaw. In that context, the Red Army were the good guys; AK - not so much. I know that this is blasphemy to the average Pole. Tough sh*it...

History / The Battle of Stalingrad saved Poland [34]


Huh what? Even I like Germans and Germany.


No. The Soviet Union had the Red Army. The only red army is an army of red ants.
By now, I am not sure what the argument is about. Semantics, spelling, capitalization, or proper use of hyphens...

History / The Battle of Stalingrad saved Poland [34]


Stalingrad was liberated by the Red Army. "By their own people" is true and a deliberate attempt not to give credit where it is due - to the Red Army.

I don't care how anybody feels. What I detect in all the discussions that involve the USSR and now Russia is this mindless Polish hostility to both that is not present when Germany is the subject. To the Russia haters, Z and Ukraine are 100% good and noble while Putin and Russia 100% bad and evil. So very adult.

Any attempt to see things through Russia's eyes is dismissed offhand and replaced with a dead baby, a raped woman, or "democracy".

History / Ghetto Uprising better known than Warsaw Uprising? [111]


That Polish world-class freedom of speech... I remember how way back we couldn't say that the Soviets killed Poles in Katyn. Like now, for a very good reason, of course.

History / The Battle of Stalingrad saved Poland [34]


Liberating can be by a third party (Red Army) or by yourself. For example, Red Army liberated Stalingrad. "Liberating" applies to both situations.

History / The Battle of Stalingrad saved Poland [34]

Liberating - the act of removing or killing people who want to kill you.
Red Army did just that. And so did the US army. Are we OK now?

History / The Battle of Stalingrad saved Poland [34]

When that idiotic Warsaw Uprising was over, Germans took my babysitter and me to the safety of a camp in Hamburg instead of just killing us both on the spot. Thanks, guys.

History / The Battle of Stalingrad saved Poland [34]

Here is what I know in one paragraph:

Red Army liberated Poland.
AK got me almost killed.
Germans saved my ass.
