Po polsku / Piszę po polsku - ludzie zmieniają się pod wpływem pieniędzy [34]


Punkt widzenia zależy od punktu siedzenia. Kiedyś PiS gromił PO za różne przekręciki i obiecywał przedobrą zmianę, a dzisiaj PiSowcy odwalają takie przekręty że głowa boli.

News / Abortion still under control in Poland [2986]


After millenia of male domination and oppression of women, the time for full liberation has come. Even if rightists temporarily gain an upper hand like now in Poland, they will lose in the long run coz such is the course of history. The high tide of freedom for women can`t be contained.

Funny. When there is an accident, a doctor may refuse to help the victims claiming it is against his or her beliefs.

Such doctors shouldn`t work in state health care, let them move to private clinics.


Stop diverting from the topic.

News / Abortion still under control in Poland [2986]


Exactly, the effect is the same - state health care denied abortion even though it is legal.


It is uncultural to pry personal info from posters. Besides, we have a strong conviction you are doing it in order to later diminish and belittle your opponents in your old known style.

Stop it.

Ha! You are back again.
Good. Can you answer one question which I asked you a few posts above?
Will you enthusiastically endorse this option, too, when one of your granddaughters is raped by an "uncle" ?

Yes, you can read it in the book Czerwień i Amarant by Melchior Wańkowicz. Excellent read about the lifestyle of Polish gentry and Lithuanian peasants under Russian .occupation in 19th and early 20th centuries. Sth like Pan Tadeusz but without rhymes. :):):)

Hungarian azholes` stand-up comedy continued:

en.interfax.com.ua/news/general/887513.html

The media said that during a conversation with journalists, the Hungarian Prime Minister compared Ukraine with Afghanistan and called it "the land of nobody." Orban said he did not believe in Ukraine's victory and believed that the country "is gradually turning into an uncontrollable ruin."

Hey, Hungarians, do you know what decent non-PiS Poles think of you? You are pathetic azholes coz most of you support Orban who supports Putin.

Fekk you!
For all you do
This finger is for you!

I have my sources. Most of them are located in the public net. Vast minority in the dark net. Neither holds records on colonel M.F born in .........

It must have been the family`s fancy to put such inscription on the tomb.

I won`t comment on it coz I am still in the January Uprising mode. I can only say - those heroic insurgents fought for free Poland. Free not only of Russians, but of all oppression, including the oppression of LGBT.

They lost in 1863 but their noble deeds gave the inspiration to next generations of Poles. When Poland eventually regained independence in 1918, still living January insurgents were revered as national heroes.

Life / Polish authors, books & literature. [125]


OK, I changed my mind. Iron has a new account now so he won`t mind if we take part in his old thread.

Adam Mickiewicz, the greatest Polish poet, wrote the greatest Polish epic poem called Pan Tadeusz - Mr Tadeusz - in 1830s.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pan_Tadeusz

The poem consists of 12 books/parts/chapters. Mr Tadeusz is a young nobleman who courts and finally marries a country gentry girl - Zosia - Sophie. There is also a rich patriotic plot based on Polish resistance to Russian occupation in Lithuania.

A dozen or two years after the publication the 13th chapter surfaced. A very indecent one. Certainly not written by Mickiewicz - another famous Polish playwright is suspected - Aleksander Fredro.

The 13th Book of Pan Tadeusz - Adam Mickiewicz 's erotic travesty of Pan Tadeusz .
The piece is very professional, so it could have been written by one of the great poets. Its authorship is attributed to Aleksander Fredro, but it could also have been created in the 20th century. The poem is saturated with erotic obscenities and profanity . At the same time, it has a formal Mickiewicz style (thirteen syllables, Homeric comparisons , etc.). The poem is about Zosia and Tadeusz's wedding night.

Real Estate / Should I rent a room without actually visiting it in Warsaw? [5]

You can always sue anybody if you deem it necessary. However, PiS` failed "reform" of the judiciary didn`t help to make the system more efficient so the litigation might take even a few years.

Thank you, PiS!

Strange because there wasn`t such a colonel named Michał Franciszek....

Study / Various education and school issues in Poland. Opinions, stories, controversies. [1006]

One last pic of a celebration.

In our school we didn`t hold a performance, but students were asked to come dressed in black (surprisingly most of them did). Black was the colour of clothes worn by patriotic Poles after the lost Uprising. Soon, the Russian regime forbade black. So, Poles started to wear grey. This colour was also banned. In result, Poles turned to purple. :):):)

PS. And our students made a corridor display about the Uprising.

Law / The right to own guns: would you support such legislation in Poland? [2237]


Yes, their guns would be soon stolen or lost and acquired by criminals, resulting in the dramatic increase of the murder statistics.

On 22 January there was the 160th anniversary of the January Uprising against Russian occupiers (which Poles lost). Some schools celebrate the event, students stage artistic performances, sometimes with historical costumes etc.

Yes, black slaves who became American citizens. Take care of them now.

Law / The right to own guns: would you support such legislation in Poland? [2237]


GefreiterKania is a pro gun member. Probably Cojest, too. I can`t remember anybody else. So, it shows that most Poles sensibly realise guns wouldn`t change anything for better, they would only do more harm.


But you love bragging of running people out of here. Why such a hypo you are??? :):)
