History / Pol-Shorpy Photo Thread [950]


The one thing is a dependency on your ally when your ally is significantly stronger in every way and quite the other that song, dance, and circus that Polish politicians from both parties are doing, I would say PO ones are worse in this regard but only some.

What we have is something I have been talking about for a long talking here a lack in Poland of proper elites and decent political representation in this country. The quality of our politics and journalism is low.

We deserve better!

Wow, Jon 357 you know nothing, about the world of kielbasa and how you make it, and ways of making it and homemade stuff and locally made stuff, types, and variations. Don't know if that's what is good if you never tasted anything but some cheap commercial stuff.

Your description is offputting and not inspiring at all,... The funny thing is in Poland you add soma mash potatoes if they go cold, with some kielbasa or boczek add some onions, and fry it, so it is similar in a way...

Because the name is misleading in two ways. You should say salt-cured beef, there is no such thing in Poland and beef is not good quality, people are more familiar with minced and canned salt beef. British stuff which is also called corn beef.

Next time you tell them you take the best cut of beef, cure it put a grain of salt on it, good eating and they will know.

Off-Topic / Will German Farmers change the EU policy? [45]

Geez, the protest in Poland is going strong. It is all an EU issue and I'm surprised nobody wants to talk about it.
You are right let talk about who has a bigger pimple on its left ass cheek Trump or Biden? I'm sure that is a hot topic for you all.

Off-Topic / Will German Farmers change the EU policy? [45]

Now, We have in Poland protests from farmers on a scale unseen in modern Poland. It is a huge protest with tractors on the streets, some road blockades, and so on.

Farmers demand that Ukraine's agricultural products be banned and denounce the green policies of the EU.
They protest against the Polish government not protecting Polish farmers and against the EU with their anti-European farmer's policies.

------
What is funny is the mainstream media in Poland does not show much of the farmer's protests in other EU countries nor do they show much of protest in Poland. Playing it very coy! Bastards!

What facts? Some nonsense nobody cares about except old demented baboons in their bubbles?

There are farmers' protests on a scale unseen in modern Poland. There is a movement about CPL, a needed project the Tusk government intended to bury... those are hot topics, not some score-settling from post-commie scum whose place is behind the bar regardless if they are in PO or PiS.

Life / Do colored immigrants in Poland function better than in Western countries? [206]


I saw ( some time ago) a documentary about black people in Poland, done with the usual modern bias asking about Poles being racist and so on,

99,9% of black immigrants in Poland claimed that Poles weren't racist, you might believe them or not, or think that it was staged but there is no reason to think like that so I believe that in their experience they haven't encountered racism or at least they did not notice it.

Next, they showed a small number of adult mulattos born and raised in Poland and they claimed 80% of them believed that Poles are racist.
Contradiction!
I have given it some thought and concluded that it all depends on the experiences and expectations of those people, black immigrants had their bar set lower than mulattos born in Poland who hated it ( more acute during their teen years) being different due to their skin color and the very fact that some people (kids) pointed it out or just that they were standing out from the crowd made they self-conscious and very sensitive to a real or perceived slight.

That could lead to misunderstanding, lack of communication, and conflicts, and although it is immaterial now due to their small numbers at the moment if the number would rise significantly all those problems would grow substantially. That is given.

Hence my stance, why would we willingly create trouble for ourselves, we have enough on our plate as it is.

people or individuals? I think it is better to treat people as individuals and the laws should do that. It doesn't extend to groups.

Not really, they can have the same rights as citizen and they do, that is not contest here, you are hinting on minorities and special treatment ergo privileges I;m against that5,

Life / Do colored immigrants in Poland function better than in Western countries? [206]

I must say that after careful consideration I'm against a sizable number of immigrants of black persuasion, that will create problems and issues in the future.

--------
To answer the OP's question it might be as well the case because people coming to Poland are already selected in several ways, firstly they can expect welfare that can get in other countries, secondly, if they decide to come to Poland there is a specific reason for that other then looking for riches or easy way to better themselves.

So black immigrants to Poland are already pre-selected and if they wnat to survive in Poland they need to adjust and work and to some exected learn the language.

The problem with such an attitude is that every group has its subgroup that is more vulnerable than others and when you have such a subgroup within a nominal majority that is vulnerable as well, to pander to one group's needs might as well be neglecting the other group and it all creates more mess and problems and resentments that it is worth it.

So the best way forward is to treat people as individuals regardless of their background and alleged group identity. Seems to me to be the best solution.

Is that famous who was here first? or first come first served? lol!
In my opinion, it doesn't matter who was first where and for how long but rather who made a country there and who makes rules has a decisive say in things.

I don't think so, that pandering to minorities is reversing the flow of history, and not in a good way,

So why are you writing about immigrants pooring from the South into the US? After all, you let them in, and American people visited for that, and are voting for that in democratic elections. So what is your problem? You are a sore loser and warmongering anti-0semoctric where according to your own logic are you not?

or just admit you are a clueless troll. you migrant nig.ger you!

News / The Political Circus of Poland [306]


Oh, I wish it was that simple, it is not. What is more fun is the fact that only one of them was nullified formally (legally or not) whilst the other is clean as a whistle and according to all laws still an MP.

Holownia and their cronies are morons.
That made such a mess that it is possible to question the legal validity of all bills passed by the Sejm, not to mention that ministers Bodnar and Sienkiewicz are currently certified criminals, awaiting jail time.

Public opinion does not care about that and PiS because they are rightly fed up with them, for people it is like powerful politicians get their commence and they like it without understanding what is going on.
