Erm... isn't it LGBTQQICAAAPPF2K+ (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, Questioning, Intersex, Curious, Asexual, Agender, Ally, Pansexual, Polysexual, Friends and family, Two-spirit and Kink) these days? You really shouldn't exclude the QICAAAPPF2K community or (even worse) band them all together with the "+" sign.

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

Rome May Have Her Way - We Have Our Own

Yes. Poland, as opposed to Czechia (definitely Western) or Russia (definitely Eastern), has always been tragically torn in our civilisational identity, and I am not able to say with full confidence what our hearts would choose if they were forced to make a choice (the brains would choose Western). That's why - being torn between two different worlds - we developed our own, unique turbo-Sarmatian, Slavic-Latin civilisation, incorporating all of the best of the two worlds and inheriting none of the worst.

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

Now that I have you here, tell me - how deep is your love for Russia?

As deep as Lake Baikal and as wide as the distance from Volga to Yenisey. But in my case it is love for people not for the state, and at this particular moment of history the interest of Russian state (or the small mafia group of politicians and oligarchs that control it) is deeply at odds with the interests of Russian people. Germany were first defeated, then judged and divided, then reborn and united again - and look at modern Germany compared with Third Reich. Which is better for German people? The new Russia will also be similarly better for Russians. After it's defeated, judged and divided, and then reborn.

Death, redemption and resurrection. Poland went through the same process. And we deserved it too.

More proof of your insanity!

Not of insanity but of Slavicness. Have the winds of Albion blew the remains of słowiańska dusza from you, Milo?

Ignore the Anglo-Saxon ordynus. He lacks the profundity to comprehend two Slavic souls finding delight in each other despite unfortunate circumstances.

History / The Battle of Stalingrad saved Poland [34]

starting to partition Poland by her actions

Austria benefitted the less form partitions (and who the most lenient towards various elements of Polishness). It was Prussia who was the main engine behind partitions because Prussia's position as a superpower pretty much depended on the destruction of Poland and incorporating the stolen Polish lands.

God stands beside us, few others have.

As usual. When you look at our history there are many events that could be considered miracles, so it looks like we have the protection from above. But will we always have it?

As for the Stalingrad battle - one way or another, it's rather easy to see that the outcome of it was very beneficial to Poland in the long run.

How did it come to this???

Remember, Paulina, that what we, small people, know is a tiny fragment of political/social reality. We can only try to somehow put smaller pieces into a larger picture, hoping that we will understand what's going on. With Piskorski it's one of the mysteries - such heavy charges and such long proceedings with no decisive evidence presented, his seemingly pro-Russian activities and the fact he was Duda's wife translator etc.

Um... Nope... I can read it in a normal way without any "proxy gate" o_O

Very strange. I can't access it no matter from home of from work...

History / The Battle of Stalingrad saved Poland [34]

... according to Polish historian, writer and politician, Jan Engelgard.

pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jan_Engelgard

In 1941 the decision was made in the III Reich to completely destroy the Polish nation by means of executions, deportations and forced germanization. According to so-called Generalplan Ost, by the year 1952 in former Poland only 3-4 million ungermanized Poles were supposed to be left alive (all of them peasants); and those of them not willing to be Germanized would be forbidden to marry and denied access to any medical services. This so far is a part of well researched history...

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generalplan_Ost

Jan Engelgard claims, mentioning the works of professor Czesław Madajczyk, that it was the German loss in the battle of Stalingrad that made III Reich abandon the GO, and apparently many Poles back then (also anti-communists) understood what happened - that the fate of Poles, as a nation, was in a way decided there by the Volga river. Of course, nobody (or almost nobody) says it aloud today, because that would be stigmatised as "speaking with the voice of Kremlin".

Hmm ... if he's on the sanctions list, it will definitely be a problem.

He was charged with espionage for Russian and Chinese civil intelligence,

Apparently he was acquitted of those charges or he would be rotting in prison, not conducting interviews with philisophers.

... or at least he says he's definitely going to come. I couldn't believe my eyes when I opened the 4th page of the latest "Myśl Polska"* (I know, I know... but I can't resist)...

... he's talking about tradition, Christianity, family, holiness etc. He says that continental Europe should be allied to Russia, mentions Polish Sarmatian tradition, his deep sympathy to Poland (even says that he is hypnotised with conservative-romantic aspects of Polish culture) - he's as nice and charming as it gets. Unfortunately, he is not as kind in the interview to the Ukrainians, even calls their country a chimera, accuses them of Polonophobia, and says that they practically don't exist.

In other words he is just being the same Dugin that we all know and love, apart from his newly found love to Poland. :)

One way or another, if there ever is a meeting with him in Gdańsk, I will definitely be attending (and I hope there will be questions from the audience allowed :)). I might even post photos in this thread, so watch this space.

Hey, I'm still all for better relations with Germany (as BB can attest). However, I do not shrink from gently and lovingly criticising our western friends and neighbours if such need ever arises in these difficult times.

Excellent! We will cross our fingers!

Notice the use of the modal verb "may" in the sentence you quoted above. This verb is used by our English-speaking partners to say that something is possible but not certain. :)

Sure, politician's words can be misinterpreted and very often are. It doesn't change the fact that the idea floated around, was debated and some nationwide newspapers and weeklies printed articles about it (GW and Najwyższy Czas, as far as I can remember, possibly others too).

I read about it some time ago but I'm not quite sure if it was said directly or was only inferred from his words. One way or another, such idea floated around and that's what Warzecha referred to.

... maybe Gowin, Przybylski, Gdula or Bielecki are not first-league politicians but serious enough, and that proves that the idea "floated" in the political sphere and collective consciousness, so to speak. Is it likely to happen? I don't think so. But is it possible? Never say never.
