History / Can anyone from Poland tell me about Auschwitz and The Ghetto? [582]

@pawian
Please do educate us what state representatives of the state of Poland or representatives of which party from the Polish Sejm has to apologise for?

Apologies to the Czechs for Cieszyn in 1938? Sure!

Repressions towards Belarusians and Ukrainians in inter war period? Sure!

Polish state however was not a collaborating part in the holocaust, but an active actor in not only fighting it as much as it possibly could (her possibilities were very slim, due to the fact of not surrendering!) but also informing the world of the events itself!

If the blue police was a thing still and individuals from alive, then they sure should say a word or two, same for every szmalcownik there is.

Thinking however that such scum would be honoured with anything from the Polish state is absurd, and it's possible to have issue with my post cause you guys consider the state of PRL a Polish state to begin with, while it was a Soviet puppet government.

It's as if the state structure and governmental bodies in Norway 1940-1945 would be called state of Norway, while in the hands of collaborating far right Norwegians. Which is absurd as they were puppets of the Germans.

Well we have same interest as him tho, we would like hard-working Poles (any hardworking people to be honest, but it's easiest to communicate with those of similar communication skills and traditions)

Just that we want what's best for Poland, and he wants what's worst for Britain I guess xD

@mafketis
That's meraly written down observations of God's working hand in the world.

The Chinese were able to use that to their own benefit, but without the full picture they were taken aback by Europeans.

There are small elements to be found in many parts of the world, most useally regarding humans, experienced behaviour and certain spiritual secrets.

They all fall short however of God's shared message via the chosen people

I find it nothing strange about silent pay of respect. Besides as mentioned by @pawian anything would been said or stated would been probably viewed as antisemitic, and it's not the time to rile anyone up. At least from a Polish point of view I reckon

History / Profound discovery - grievances towards Poland [6]

@GefreiterKania
I see, but then is the problem with people who have too much on their plate (personal issues, group belonging issues, other issues, addictions lack of love etc) who for one reason or another blame Poland for all his/her misery and leads on a very personal vendetta (example: Stalin)

Is there something we as Poles can do to remedy this? Or should we continue this risk

Simply put: Isn't it a bit unrealistic to put such high expectations of people, nations especially nations mainly lead by groups coming out from the bottom and having traditions that are mainly meant for those on the bottom. Either at the bottom of society or groups, the societal "hell" as most knowingly known as

As far as I know, both sexes have a right to each other. So technically speaking rape cannot happen between them since they consented formally to a sexual relationship. Legally speaking

That the wife sometimes has her way with her husband when he is too tired or when the husband has his way with his wife when she is not in the mood is pretty much bound to happen, and they should make arrangements as to make it fine somehow (code word, specific items being specific places etc)

@Cargo pants
Illegal as in not being recognised, they would be most likely treated as two strangers performing perverted acts, who can in blink of a notice send the other to the courts on accusations of rape.

They just don't have any legal protection, I haven't heard of any policy or law regarding punishment for two men thinking they are married. Just as there are no laws for people who claim to be dolphins

Life / Which areas of Poland have the most conservative young women (under 22)? [49]

@Feniks
It's a cultural thing in Poland (honestly have No clue why)

People seem to be obsessed over it, growing up in Norway. Very few people iron clothes at all. Mostly just business types who try to look very presentiful to increase chances of making a business deal/attract people influence etc.

Most "normies" don't iron at all in Norway and consider it a waste of time (mostly due to weather/temperature conditions)

In Poland it's more in direction of being uncivilised if you don't iron your clothes

Let's just say I had enough negative feedback, that my expectations are so low. I don't even ask about cooking or washing skills. I am positively surprised if she does not protest me opening the door for a women.

It's basically scrapping the bottom of the barrel, most places

It is true, it's very difficoult. I didn't write impossible

Too many women think of it as some power play or as opression of women. I got fed up with it

@pawian
You seem to be under the impression that when a man looks for a women who can cook and clean, he is thinking that she will do 100% of the cleaning 100% of the cooking.

Instead of the man not having to do 100% of everything and the women zero.

In the western world it is difficoult to find any individual that is skilled and cooking or cleaning, and most women in the west probably don't even know how to bake bread.

So it's not about finding whatever insuniation you have about conservative men and what type of women, conservative men are looking for and for which reasons

A long term solution for Polish farmers (at least in Northern Poland) would to make it easier and welcoming for scandinavian settlers, it would create not only movement, investments and improvements, but also reduce fears of Germans setlling in and buying out everything. Considering scandinavians nowadays are nothing like the vikings of old. I would say the risk is very low. It would counter the fears of German expansion and open up for further trade and development+improved relations with the Germans long term

What then? Finish the job for the NSDAP? Nuclear wasteland of a richly agricultural land? What kind of differance would you be to Ustashe croats that did their Crimes on Serbs? Just becaouse it will be nukes instead of barbed wires and primitive tools?

"We will finish the Poles! With refined technology!" So I ask, what then? Will everyone be legitimate without any complaints to nuke Russia to the Stone Age? With it the globe?

Where is Kalmar of Slavs? Where is Bismarck of Slavs? Where is the country that could create a United Slavic kingdom?

What then if Russia wins in Ukraine? Invade Poland? Germany? France? U.K? Brazil? U.S.A? How much bloody does the bear hunger for? How many more deaths is it interested in? How much more increase of pain and suffering caused by own pain and misery?

Suffering in life is a human condition when filled with sin, guilt, abandonment and rejection.

Do Russians really believe that Russian culture is the only way? That it has to be? That it isn't created mainly due to it's circumstances? Being conquered by mongols, then fighting them off to their own freedom? Why abandoning Slavic ways? Why copy-cat the mongols too much? Think Russians that mongol traditions are Slavic traditions?!

Should Poland copy-cat Russia? Should Poland dwarf the Russian Federation just like the Russian Empire dwarfed the mongols?

Why is a Union so impossible to comprehend for Russia? Unwillingness to even work for joining the E.U.

A European Union, part of the club. Instead of grumbling by being left out and ignored. It is Russias choice sweetheart, just a very difficult one with very few guarantees of any privileges. But, a lot of hard work

With regard to #375

The difference is the difference of attitude and how it's being used. Both political parties in U.S.A and other parties in western countries try to use media combatively as it's collectively agreed that it's better then physically eliminating opponents and traitors (political opponents).

While laws, being enacted in as broadest as possible way to not only benefit themselves as much as possible (which you mention) but, also to gain more supporters and lower unrest when in need to do it (comprise is easier to perform during such events)

Putin compared to western leaders performs things far less subtle (especially covert operations like assassinations and open power displays), is not only distasteful but, a reminder of mafia like tactics and paints him very much of a criminal.

A criminal using and abusing laws to his own benefits, rightly gets painted as a rogue leader.

His cynical view of laws angers and infuriates any person wanting compromise, law abiding citizens or justice to be one of the most important values in their own and other societies. It also creates suspicion and possible animosity from any followers of religion, due to followers of God's commands will keep an watch eye on anyone breaking secular laws (due to it being a step closer to breaking God's laws which is far more vital to uphold)
