News / Building regional alliance to stabilize Eastern Europe. [236]

don't call him a pest

He is though.

people need to stop bullying

When someone promotes racism and nationalism, others will call them out.

All it takes for evil to triumph is for good people to do nothing.

History / Heil Poland!.....? Poland is a pro-Nazi state? [185]

followers of Odin some Baltic tribe and therefore part of the master race construct

Nowt wrong with Odin however you'll find far far more Nazis in r*SSia.

azovites

The faschos were booted out of that a decade ago.

The same as with your worldview

Hardly.

Fascism is predicated on hate and fear.

easier to build up a fantasy reality using ideological template

Yes, they do that enthusiastically, demonising whole groups of people. It appeals to the lowest common denominator.

My opinion is that ideology doesn't create actions but character does

Ideology feeds it. There were angry mobs in a simpler age too, however the fascists and other characteristics of ill will are adept at using the media (the nazis appeared the age of film, early radio and affordable newspapers) to push their filth.

History / Poland is great Mother of all Slavs from Baltic to Balkan [211]

Hardly. I'm very assiduous.

And some parts of southern Europe are just plain grubby. Have you seen how they live?

Very weird that there are so many posts, mostly trolling ones on here from there, especially from servia, the worst bit of the balkans.

people driven by an ideology kill other people

That is the same thing.

A vile belief system based entirely on violence, murder and racism. One rightly excoriated by the rest of the world.

Fascism didn't kill anyone

It has killed millions, not only in its best-known iteration, Nazizm, it also in its other forms, in South America and elsewhere.

Today right-wing parties try to bring back Christian values, civic values

The rapist trump doesn't, his party don't, PiS don't; in fact that statement is a bizarre one.

Why are you defending fascism?

It is what you claim

What most of the world 'claims'.

Any ideology that kills people because they're Jewish, or Polish, or disabled, or hold different political views is evil.

I'm sure you agree with that.

don't think that many things should be banned, only a selected few,

Same, however walking round advocating the vilest political ideology that has ever existed by making their silly nazi salutes or their even sillier military goosestepping is extreme enough to count.

it is very tempting for a normal person to salute like

It really isn't. Only the insane would make such silly gestures.

It is a sign associated with a particularly vile political ideology, and good that normal people often use democratic processes to get it banned.

Life / Are foreigners welcome in Poland? [305]

we clawed our way to semi- prosperity by sweat, tears, hard work, and perseverance, with no help from anybody

Only many billions in EU subsidies and infrastructure payments.

News / Polish military contingent in Lebanon. [183]

Kashubs, who are Serbs (at least were Serbs

They really aren't and weren't.

Would you think the same of Silesians or Pomeranian's or Kashubs who declare Polish nationality despite their families

Since in 1920 the ancestors of most Polish citizens today didn't consider themselves Polish, it's hardly likely to be a problem. Loyalty is about more important things than what someone's forbears considered themselves to be.

News / Building regional alliance to stabilize Eastern Europe. [236]

remnant of what was populace of the back then Roman province

online

Venetia, Veneti, Wendi

How is any of that relevant to modern times?

The only thing that's important is keeping all trade with r*SSia in the past where it belongs too and making sure that any military alliance isn't connected the EU or limited to countries in our region.

News / Will Chinese soldiers be stationed in Poland and Europe in 10 years? [57]

We should worry more about r*SSian 'sleeper cells'. They did it in Ukraine, they have form with this, and there are a lot of r*SSians working around Europe, generally on passports of Baltic countries. The exodus of Ukrainian refugees is also something that the r*SSians could exploit.

Engelbert Dollfuß. Is that whom you meant?

Yes. His Austrofascism was an inspiration for Dmowskiites and those around them.

Authoritarian, yes. Fascist, no.

Where one ends and the other begins has never been clear cut.

Being a fad doesn't have further consequences in Poland.

It wasn't a 'fad' and there are fascists in the Sejm even today.
