News / How could PiS better spend billions instead of 500+ ? [280]

one of the most popular influencers on the Polish internet

Yes I heard on tok fm that konfederacja is very big on youth social media these days, this guy is just a konfa fool wacked out on amfeta/mefedron and steroids, and for you to post it demonstrates a comparable level of inteligence.

Life / In need of good Polish jokes about Polish culture, people, etc [239]

A Polish man finds a genie in a bottle, one decades-old joke goes. The genie offers him three wishes.

The Pole says, "I want the Mongols to invade Poland and then go back to Mongolia."

So it happens.

For his next wish, the Pole also asks for the Mongols to invade Poland and then go home.

So it happens.

For his third wish, the Pole again asks for the Mongols to invade Poland and go home."

I gave you three wishes," the genie cries. "Why did you ask for the Mongols to invade Poland and then go home three times?"

"Because they had to march across Russia six times."

What will Tusk come up with? More divisive rhetoric that these pathological elderly scum are sniffing vodka and fentanyl so they cannot afford to pay for lifesaving medicines?

News / EU, Germany, Euros and Poland. [54]

Well it seems Bratwurst was right that once Poland starts paying into the EU it will change things as it seems Germany will need it!

"As Germany's population continues to set new record highs and migrants are set to cost taxpayers over €36 billion in 2023, there are those warning that severe social consequences could ensue.

Tübingen Mayor Boris Palmer, of the Green party, is one of those voices, and in many ways, due to his popularity and party affiliation, his voice carries more weight than others.

Palmer told Neue Osnabrücker Zeitung this week that "if we use all of society's resources for the new arrivals, but there is nothing left for the local people, then this society will explode." He continued by saying that due to the mass influx of migrants, Germany's social system will eventually be exhausted.

Also it means I was right too, eventually German refugees will be heading to Poland due to global/national economic collapse and to avoid their fellow citizens who want to put them under neighbourhood islamic law, or at least have no qualms about jumping the line or taking their wallet when times are tough .|

News / EU, Germany, Euros and Poland. [54]

What? Musiała is a Polish name, His mother is Polish and emigrated to Germany in the early 2000s. Which ties into the EU thread as in those days Poland was bottom of the pecking order and people had to leave their beloved country to get a job that did not pay 2 zloty an hour. Luckily that has changed and Polish women do not have to immigrate to questionalble countries like Germany for economic reasons anymore.

Of course he is half Nigerian, but half Polish also. So as part of the war reparations that Germany owes we can take 75 million off the 300 billion that is due if you return our player to his rightful place in the Polish national team, or to the Nigerian national team.

News / EU, Germany, Euros and Poland. [54]

only when Poland starts paying Germany the billions it gets till now from the EU pockets.

We have been paying all along, You missed some points from the article, that much more money goes back to the EU companies that were allowed into poland as part of the EU money and also the EU money was used for projects that benefited Western Europe. Also the dismantling of our manufacturing base to benefit EU.

"Between 2010 and 2016, Poland received 2.7% of GDP as EU transfers annually, and sent 4.7% as profits to western investors."

"The EU-funded highway system in Poland for example, primarily developed the west-east axis, promoting German trade and North Sea ports, rather than the north-south axis which would boost Poland as an eastern European trade hub along with its Baltic ports."

Anyway good to tacticus getting his skirt in a knot about the inevitable rise of Poland ;) I am sure we will be accepting german refugees during the next economic crash, escaping their islamist fellow citizens.

News / EU, Germany, Euros and Poland. [54]

The woke Guardian commissioned an article praising Poland, vis a vis Germany, without mentioning the far right fascist PiS blah blah

Amassing! How the world has changed. Poland Stronk!

"Poland has experienced uninterrupted growth over three decades, the longest in European history. Its GDP has increased tenfold nominally, sixfold when corrected for the cost of living. It has a record low unemployment rate of 3%, lower infant mortality than Canada, higher female life expectancy than the US and less violent crime than the UK ."

"China-US rivalry may soon be echoed in regional (and friendlier) miniatures, such as a Polish-German divide. As eastern Europe grows in power, it is questioning its role in the pecking order."

Language / Is the term 'Polak' derogatory?? [254]

A sign of a mature and confident nation rather than a minor place of cultural cringe is not caring when others make fun.

Exactly, also taking ownership of the word and transforming it into something positive and fun, like blacks did with nig*a and gays did with queer. People from the subcontinent in U.K should do the same with paki.

History / What do Poles owe to Hungarians? [275]

What if Poland was attacked by RuSSia? How would Orban behave?

Polak, Węgier - dwa bratanki,
i do szabli, i do szklanki,
oba zuchy, oba żwawi,
niech im Pan Bóg błogosławi.

English translation: They would behave just like in world war 2 and for centuries before that, do what they can to help.

History / What do Poles owe to Hungarians? [275]

That's because the official language in Ukraine is Ukrainian, just like in Poland - Polish

Ukraina dla Ukraniców? Now you sound like a Banderist, the german minority in Poland has rights to be taught german in school, why should the same be denied to the hungarian minority in Ukraine?

In the school year of 2014/15 there were 387 elementary schools in Poland (all in Upper Silesia), with over 37,000 students, in which German was taught as a minority language (that is, at least for three periods of 45 minutes in a week), hence de facto as a subject." .. "there were three asymmetrically bilingual (Polish-German) schools, where most subjects were taught through the medium of Polish""

And yet PiS politicians

And yet you can't provide any evidence for this, in contrast to being provided with all the facts on how Poland has cut friendly relations with Hungary.

Orban's behaviour is treasonous.

The EU recently gave a hungarian oil refinery an expemption from the sanctions, so they import the oil from russia, ship it to slovakia where it is refined, and then able to be sold to Austria, Czech, Slovakia etc.

So now awaiting your moral outrage to extend to the European Commission, please call von der Leyen a piece of sh*t, and call all those that support the EU over Poland scumbags.. tick tock i'm waiting.

History / What do Poles owe to Hungarians? [275]

but this seems to be the PiS policy towards Hungary

Your PiS derangement sydrome has really affected you, Kaczynski personally insulted Orban, all high level meetings were cancelled and the V4 is now the V3. Stop bringing your PiS hate into every thread. In a time of war this is borderline treason.

the far right (whether in Poland or abroad) tends to sympathize with russia

excuse me punk? Check yourself before you wreck yoursel you silly yank, my posts have shown i'm totally against russia invasion.

Amiga probably meant Ukrainians didn`t allow their Hungarians to seperate and join Great Hungary.

I meant that the ethnic hungarian minority were forbidden to teach hungarian in schools before the war and they are disportionatlly being consripted to fight in the east during the war.

History / What do Poles owe to Hungarians? [275]

So there goes the claim of PiS politicians and PiS supporters

Who said that exactly? afaik relations between poland and hungary are not the best, and kaczynski critisized orban.

the scumbags that vote for him.

Calm down, youve seen too many ukranian psyops on facebook. ever wonder why those fake photos of atrocities you fell hook line and sinker for were never mentioned by the mainstream media, and the ukranian minister who kept goin on about them was fired?

Orban is allowed his stance, as is half the world. Besides the ukrs have treated the hungarian minority in the carpathians badly.

Language / Test to determine proficiency of Polish? [7]

As part of my prep to spend a few months in Europe, I will be doing some hardcore polish language learning. But before I get to that, am looking for an online test to determine what level (A2, B1 etc) I really am at.

Is there an online course one can do that tests your knowledge and gives you a level grade, one that gives feedback on areas of deficency would be a bonus.

Thanks Polish language experts!
