History / What do Poles owe to Jews? [593]

What you just wrote means that Jews are never Poles. Just as Mongolians are never Mexicans.

Christianity remain (and still recognize themselves as being) Jewish.

Run it by me one more time...A Jewish guy that converts to Christianity is still Jewish. A Jewish Christian, of Christian Jew?
No wonder so many don't like them. Just reading this stuff makes my head spin.

It's either what's in her head or DNA. Which one is it?
In other words, is it objectively testable or by self-declaration, and, therefore, not testable?

Judaism is a religion. Some Christians convert to Judaism. Mothers have nothing to do with it.

Life / The Pole, as an example of a perfect Russophobe, in a spherical vacuum [42]

And they did all of that because they had too much vodka, and not because NATO warmongering scum was getting closer to Russia and threaten Russia's access to the base. And those strange events in Ukraine...Bad Russians...How dare you do something good for Russia. You should file a suit in the Hague and wait 65 years for the verdict.

What makes one a Jew? How about 1/32? Still a Jew? If Kamala is black and the other a-hole one was an Indian at 1/1024...it's a valid question at the payout time or the line will be very long.

Bottom line: I owe what the judge says I owe. For the rest, call God or pray.

Exactly what Jews owe for living in Poland since that royal moron invited them centuries ago and for their criminal activities as the UB and the Soviet agents.

And telling the Russians that they are seen in Poland as an enemy in perpetuity is helping Poles how? Poland should do everything that comes naturally to make this relationship as normal as humanly possible without being as fake as it is with Germany.

How about sending a delegation to their May 9 parades? What would be the downside?

Since, as some claim, Jews were Poles, the question is what Poles owe Poles.
A half-Jew, half-Pole, will he pay himself?

Life / Going Smartphone Free - taking off in Poland? [47]

Smartphones are terrible. They track you.
Smartphones are wonderful. They track you. Many innocent people got off the suspect list when the cops saw where they were when the crime was committed.

Life / Going Smartphone Free - taking off in Poland? [47]

What I like about flip phones is the sound they make when you are done. Smartphones are so girly. Second, that I don't have to know which way is up when it rings. Just open it and you are good to go. Third, smartphones have to be handled by the edges or they will do something you don't want. I hate it.

Im all for it!

Me too but it's not going to happen if only for the camera. Phone cameras are so good now that nobody is dragging their Canons anymore. They are heavy, look ridiculous and the pics are not one bit better.

Life / What do Polish people think of the Asia and Middle East? [86]

What do Polish people think of the Asia and Middle East?
Nobody gives a damn what Polish people think of Asia but the swamp in DC should think about what Xi does. Quoting from

the-sun.com/news/3151814/world-war-3-fear-china-threatens-war-taiwan-independence/

WORLD War 3 fears have risen again after China vowed it will invade Taiwan if it seeks independence as the US Navy flexes its military muscle.

Beijing warned Taiwan today that any move toward gaining independence would mean "war".


Say what you want about China and Xi but it's refreshing to read unambiguous English that does not include "dire consequences", "peaceful measures", or "international opinion" - the language of the Western weasels with their "red lines".

Language / Endearment, friendship, etc. in Polish [38]

You can call "moj kochany" a stranger.

It should be avoided in all situations unless you are in that special joking mood, only within the family and when addressing a female if the speaker is a man. When I start a sentence with "my darling..." or equivalent, my wife says, "what do you want now?"

Language / Endearment, friendship, etc. in Polish [38]

but the word itself isn't patronizing.

You are right. It's not. It's how it's used 99% of the time that eventually makes it patronizing. Just as "buddy" here. Or even worse, bud, pal,...

It depends on the intentions of the person using it.

Again, no argument. Here, even fu*ck you, a-holes can be said in terms of endearment if spoken to a group of old friends and in the right voice.

In my opinion as an observer, kochana, darling, and similar are meant to neutralize the negativity of the rest of the sentence since they don't add anything of substance to it, at best, or be a putdown. Using the other person's first name will do fine.

It's been over 50 years but I can still hear it..."no kochaaana, co ty tam wiesz..." with that kochaaaaaana longer than it needs to be.

Language / Your perception of the Polish accent [145]

The most annoying and the most pretentious English comes from the NE old money, rich snobs. It sounds like a sickening blend of British and American - especially when spoken by older women that wanted to be sopranos. To them, it's caaa, not car.

Language / Your perception of the Polish accent [145]

She's hard for me to understand, not as bad as the Scots..

English is what you hear on the ABC, CBS, and NBC evening news. All others are poor imitations. Some are very irritating - as if they were designed to make them less comprehensible to the lower class outsiders and foreigners. That is why I don't watch British movies.

Did I mention that I am a genius and the rest of you just naive, feel-good *******? Quoting from

express.co.uk/news/world/1454630/World-War-3-news-Joe-Biden-China-Taiwan-conflict-Franz-Gayl-South-China-Sea

Joe Biden could trigger 'major war with China' over Taiwan - Pentagon insider breaks cover

That was the title. Down below...

Beijing insists Taiwan is part of its sovereign territory, and has refused to rule out using force to seize the island.

I agree and the sooner, the better for the US.

He added: "We should learn from our history in Southeast Asia and not shed American blood for another lost cause."

This one would be worse than hell. Vietnam is one thing. China is another.

Conclusion:

In his letter Mr Gayl argued the US should "refrain from militarily intervening" in any conflict between China and Taiwan.

But not everything is lost. Taiwan will get full support from this forum and Poland. Moral, of course. The hard stuff, PF posters will happily leave for the US.

My advice for the PF posters: sent Xi some of your thoughts and maybe he will reconsider. Who knows...
