If anyone is like that, it's the PiSites. Yet you fail to provide one teensy weensy bit of evidence for your wild assertion.

Remind us, how long ago was it that you emigrated from Poland?

Any sources for that, other than your own fevered imagination?

Do expand on that....

Precisely.


A lie


Utter nonsense.

And since public money is short, how many theatres, museums etc will lose out.


No it hasn't.

That's simply not true. There have been rigorous studies about identical twins which disprove what you allege.

You've also said he's married (he isn't) and that he has lived with women (he hasn't).


Who among us isn't?

We should be under no illusion that they are doing this and also reading this forum.

Bingo. Absolute nonsense and they don't quite understand that most people (in the capital, anyway) realise that very well.

Easy answer. The bulk of PiS voters (not that there were that many) are elderly, poorly educated, small town/rural, believing in religious superstitions and with a very limited outlook on life.

He doesn't have any support from any other demographic so he's terrified about alienating that one.

News / Poland's post-election political scene [4080]


Absolutely - and desperate it isn't discussed any more than it is already. Amazing how many in the far-right lead double lives which invariably rebound on them - Jorge Haider and Nick Griffin are the classic examples.

With Jaro, it will sooner or later become an issue; depending on whatever blunder his puppet regime does next.

Perhaps rather more than yourself who's never been here (or even to the same continent), doesn't even speak the language, has no real connection to the country yet spams a discussion forum with creepy stuff about what people should or should not do here...

Isn't it past your bedtime in Australia?

Hard (no pun intended) to say any normal person would make that comment, Po.

And no, in Poland we don't mutilate people unnecessarily.

From the Polish government.


Probably since birth. It's not exactly a secret; President Wałęsa outed him on live TV.

This is good, however the reason Americans do it isn't in any way shape or form because of


It's because doctors there are unfortunately allowed to charge money to their patients or to their patients so-called health insurance so they push it as something they can get an income from. That and Protestant American Puritanism that thinks sex is bad - because circumcision damages sexual response and men who've had it feel and enjoy less.

There are no health benefits whatsoever from male circumcision (unless you're an adult who needs it for the obvious) and to inflict it on a child is abuse.

Yes, you are a d...head, however this thread is pointless since we don't routinely practice circumcision here unless the person has either phimosis or a foreskin that hasn't properly retracted.

I have never seen one in Poland that has that issue.

Given that the party leader, Jaroslaw Kaczynski, is a practising homosexual, I'd say that you're barking up the wrong tree there. As for IQ, I doubt any serious study has been done on IQ and voting habits. What has been studied in Poland is educational attainment and voting habits. Those studies, available to all show that PiS voters are less likely to have higher or even further education that voters of other parties.

Life / Why is circumcision not practiced in Poland? [701]


As a teenage Australian, you'be never even visited our continent and probably never will and your or anybody else's 'ancestors' are an irrelevance. My own ancestors were from Poland and even wore the crown of this country but that doesn't give me or anyone else the right to snark...

As is this thread, since circumcision is not done here.

Life / Why is circumcision not practiced in Poland? [701]

I live where the hell I like within Europe and have a right to live here, which you by the way don't.

However circumcision, an American habit is wrong. A pointless thread since male circumcision is not routinely practised in Poland.

News / Poland's post-election political scene [4080]

Who cares and that has nothing to do with the National Socialist PiS Partei that nobody with an IQ over 110 actually supports.

Life / Why is circumcision not practiced in Poland? [701]

For once we agree. I don't give a flying f'*ck about what's 'slavic' or what is isn't but circumcision is just pointless and harmful mutilation.

There's actually a thread about this here - maybe the mods will merge.

News / Poland's post-election political scene [4080]


Voters are voters, whether they bother to show up or not. I always vote; my forbears fought hard for the right to do so and I don't understand why some people are apathetic.


The polls show that the current regime are unpopular and the puppet president is low in the ratings too.

Sooner or later (could be Petru but I doubt it) someone will emerge that is genuinely popular and hopefully not populist it won't be Kukiz, won't be Biedroń (though they love him up in Słupsk), it won't be anyone with strong links to the Church, but it will be someone and hopefully someone far more moderate and less hysterical than Kaczynski. Though that wouldn't be hard.

It's actually one of the highest approval ratings anywhere for continued EU membership. Poland hugely supports the EU. Those tiny handfuls of beardies who shop up in public with giant crosses and banners about Eurowhatever are a tiny, tiny minority.


Buy a dictionary


All polls indicate that the people you are crass enough to discuss politics with in real life (assuming it is in real life) are in a minority. Most people do not support the present regime.

News / Poland's post-election political scene [4080]

Given that most voters didn't actually turn out to vote and now we have a regime that nobody likes, it's very fair to criticise them.

News / Poland's post-election political scene [4080]


That's absolutely naive, an underestimation of voters and ignores the vigorous 'no'campaign.

It also falls down flat when you consider the fact that within the EU, Poles are one of the nations that support continued membership most strongly.

News / Poland's post-election political scene [4080]


Exactly, it's this misunderstanding that is confusing the political issue. Poland chose the single market and although the tax office certainly doesn't like the fact that someone can register their business elsewhere, rather than whine it's incumbent on them (and the government in office) to provide an environment where people don't need to do this.

News / Polish President vetoes PO's dingbat gender law [173]


What's it got to do with you how someone was born? People have been outside the gender binary for millennia and that ain't going to go away. Such people are far more experienced about dealing with people who get all worked up because of their own issues about their gender and sexuality than you are at whining about the issue.

Interesting that you're fixating on male homosexuals rather than female ones and on transwomen rather than transmen...

And you still haven't said why you agree with the entirely innocuous recycling adverts being pulled.

This is what so many of them need. they can't cope with their own feelings so they obsess.


And the Council of Bishops plus some of those moustachioed creeps out in the boondocks are terrified by the fact that sometimes a woman can be far smarter than a man and has no need for one.

News / Poland's post-election political scene [4080]

Pork barrel politics. They're aware of how badly they will do in the local elections (and town hall level is where PiS busybodies line their pockets) so will do their damnedest to court any group where there's a bloc vote - something they have never had.

News / Poland's post-election political scene [4080]


With an understanding of basic business like that, it's no wonder that a few people voted for PiS and most just sighed and stayed away from the polls.

And the sad thing is that business will suffer, employees will suffer and the jobs market will contract.

Having a gender is dangerous how? perhaps you'd prefer them to be genderless..

And you still can't explain what you think is bad about the recycling adverts...
