you are a joke indeed - CD Projekt Red hit most of the nails on their heads with vastly popular Witcher - I haven't seen Cyberpunk - I only heard it is (was) a flop because of bugs aplenty - if you want to try and belittle everything polish wholesay because of some bad luck here please go on - but i mostly happily ignore what you expound on here

you know what - my guess is the witness who claimed that Malinowski helped to kill other Jews never actually witnessed it as the e-siemiatycze link makes me think

I don't go around the web in searching for beautiful graphics to be honest - can't be arsed to do it now because you ask - all I know is I have seen really beautiful graphics in my time

and again you asked for an opinion - if you can't take criticism don't boast

yes - all beneficiaries of 500+ know that PiS can't be trusted

everybody knows that PO, PSL and especially SLD - they can all be trusted: "Pieniędzy nie ma i nie będzie'. 'Nasi eksperci mówią że epidemia minie do września. (września 2020- przypis mój :P) - dlatego nie można przeprowadzić wyborów w maju , no bo te śmiercionośne koperty. 'Nadam ulicy miano Lecha Kaczyńskiego w Warszawie' 'Tablet dla każdego ucznia', 'Znaleźliśmy katarskiego inwestora dla stoczni' etc etc

nothing spectacular to be honest - you asked for an opinion

@jon357

so ok - i read the Deutche Welle link - and it states that one of the survivors who was helped by Edward Malinowski claims that he was instrumental in the deaths of several dozens of other Jews - how do you reconcile this? - there were other Jews who survived the war thanks to Malinowski as the 1949 (or 1950) trial found - how do you reconcile this

History / Malinowo: Polish-Nazi Supression? [447]


I read this link you posted just now -esiemiatycze.pl/artykul/dziadkowice-ydom-zamordowanych-w-okolicy-malinowa/398174 and it is exactly the Edward Malinowski whom the libel case involved who explained that it was some other Pole who denounced hiding Jews - read carefully - there are no testimonies against Edward Malinowski in the article - maybe your Polish skills need a little honing Jon

History / Malinowo: Polish-Nazi Supression? [447]


I have just read the thread through and I never found anybody mention testimonies that contradict those given in the 1949 trial of Malinowski - if you have just quote it

History / Malinowo: Polish-Nazi Supression? [447]


I haven't seen any of the kind you keep on mentioning - please quote it

this remark was not meant for you but for delphi


they want to create an impression that private media in Poland are stiffled - which I explained is a manipulation - which means they are agressively attacking PiS

maybe you weren't in Poland at that time yet delphi but here's a nice glimpse on Poland under SLD rule - SLD is just another arm of the same octopus: pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Afera_starachowicka

History / Malinowo: Polish-Nazi Supression? [447]


a manipulation even in the title - at least I see it as such - Kaczyński is the most remote person to an Russian apologist I know

History / Malinowo: Polish-Nazi Supression? [447]


I don't know of any testimony that would contradict those from the 1949 trial - please show me if you have any

News / Previous Poland's government corrupting the media. [125]


read my post above - you swallowed the manipulation too

News / Previous Poland's government corrupting the media. [125]


the media can happily add the tax to their prices - sure the higher cost of advertising would influence consumer prices a bit that's all - instead they have thrown a tantrum - if this is not political what is - you swallowed it as an attack on the media (as probably millions of others) - I see their move as an attack - and the tax as just another tax

@gumishu - but well you always hated PiS as long as I can remember so you probably never will change your mind - hatered blinds - that's all I have to say

History / Malinowo: Polish-Nazi Supression? [447]


please quote it - how do i know there are any testimonies to support your claim

History / Malinowo: Polish-Nazi Supression? [447]


the court has spoken now - and it said there was a libel

News / Previous Poland's government corrupting the media. [125]


wysokienapiecie.pl/34168-ceny-pradu-rosna-przez-oplate-mocowa-ale-nie-koniec-podwyzek/ - read this - opłata mocowa is not a whim of PiS it is there to give Polish energetic system more safety - also the electricity prices in Poland are still lower than the EU average (last I checked Germans pay almost 50 per cent more than us)

once again - seriously read this article (I doubt you ready any of the articles I posted but well..) - tvp.info/43539295/kierunkowano-nas-na-sciganie-legalnych-podmiotow-a-tymczasem-rozwijaly-sie-mafie

if you don't infer from the article that the PO, PSL and others from the so called total opposition are crooks then I don't know what could change your mind

History / Malinowo: Polish-Nazi Supression? [447]


the court has spoken - I don't even get when you get all those new and recent testimonies - if there where any the court would pass a different verdict

News / Previous Poland's government corrupting the media. [125]


of course I understand - I also understand the mechanism by which PiS aims to lessen the burden of the social spending - and I understand why Trzaskowski said: 'Nic co zostało dane, nie zostanie zabrane' (Nothing that was given will be taken away (as for the social spending under PiS) - I just don't find the prospect of PO, PSL or SLD getting power back appealing - imagine big social spending and a renewed VAT fraud, fuel smuggling and a monopoly on media

so yeah - this whole current action is purely political and the argument that PiS wants to shut down hostile media is manipulative - but I guess Paulina would not understand

thank the EU CO2 quotas for that - and the PO government who agreed on the new system of counting the quotas or some such (basically Poland first agreed to be eligible to pay excessive CO2 starting from 1990 or 1989 and Tusk agreed to change that to the detriment of Poland (and to give him a boost to his career in Europe)

they can happily add this new tax to the prices of their add time/space which will doublethe positively effect on the budget - the whole action is simply political (and anti-PiS)

you noticed that she is not a PiS basher if you ask me - your bias prevents you from seeing that she is trying to find truth as is Polsat news branch under her leadership - what is more there a journalists there who were very anti-PiS in the past and somehow Gawryluk haven't fired them so far

PO knew about gaps in taxes and fuel smuggling - they did next to nothing to avert it

three holocaust survivors testified that Edward Malinowski helped them during a trial 1949 - the court aquitted Malinowski of charges of collaboration with the Nazis

News / Previous Poland's government corrupting the media. [125]


- the gap in all taxes combined was estimated by PiS in 2015 to be in the measure of 60-70 billion - what this article you 'linked' stated was manipulation - VAT fraud has been eliminated (also the contrabanda of fuels from the west by fuel mafias)- VAT evasion is much harder to fight as is income tax evasion


I heard something about Solorz held by the throat because he invested in energy sector and PiS blatantly blackmailed him - Solorz is not a PiS ally which is now to be seen - if Polsat became openly pro-Pis it would loose a lot of viewers so he chose Dorota Gawryluk as the head of news who tries really hard to be objective (which I admire her for)


that's also a manipulation - the global state debt rose by about 82 billion - Poland's debt also includes the debts of municipal authorities of which PiS had little pow

in 2018 the state debt rose by a mere 10 billion and in 2019 13 billion - I'm not sure but as far as I can remember the number were lowest in the history of democratic Poland


all of the European economies shrunk in 2020 - Poland was among the least hit actually


Poland's deficit counted in tens of billions during PO/PSL without any significant social spending because of VAT fraud, VAT gap, fuel smuggling and income tax gap - they did little to avert it - my belief is they were not really willing to because of being chums whith the beneficiaries of those gaps

News / Previous Poland's government corrupting the media. [125]


22 billion (*but I safely even a bit more) bet more went into the official economy - you don't think it created jobs? - you don't think it created a snowball effect


you are right now contradicting the narration of the total opposition and other critics of the goverment who said that foreing investment in Poland slowed down significantly when PiS came to power (because it is seen as unstable) - so who of you is right?

Off-Topic / This is why I say Poland is so far behind in tech [29]


go back to the states then - what's all that fuss

News / Previous Poland's government corrupting the media. [125]


you are arguing with a point I haven't made - I haven't said all of the VAT growth was directly thanks to curbing the VAT fraud


the economic boom we had was mostly because of the influx of the money that used to leak to VAT fraud into the official economy especially to those who had very little before (who could suddenly afford more than just bread and margarine)


the current VAT gap has nothing to do with VAT fraud but with VAT evasion which is caused by the rise of black economy where money flows without being reported - some people are affraid now of buying things and services legally - like all those fraudulent doctors and lawyers who cannot prove their income and have to go -an fear electronic VAT fakturas

I haven't said nothing in the shape that PiS has removed all of the VAT gap - however that part of VAT gap (VAT evasion, black economy) is not easy to curb

@gumishu
demagog.org.pl/wypowiedzi/jak-wygladaly-wplywy-z-podatku-vat-w-ostatnich-latach/ - this table shows the VAT income in recent years (and roughly 52 billion rise between the years 2015 and 2018) - the big chunk of the growth was thanks to stopping of VAT fraud


the oppostition shouted scandal and they paid for it


if it was true why did Rostowski say - pieniędzy nie ma i nie będzie (there is no money for 500+ and there won't be any) - maybe he is an expert like that
