Language / IS "MURZYN" word RACIST? [686]

Not sure about John Godson, who doesn't mind the word.

John Godson must be a self-hating 'murzyn', hahha :) - it is the only explanation why he settled in the racist Poland

There are actually neurological reasons some people feel that way.

Oh did you mean where I suggested you go up to a black man and call him a moor?

English speaking cultural imperialism at its best - transplanting the notions of the words from English to Polish - because we know better you know

mods - the quote was quite short - why are you making people read the whole article on Israel Singer and wonder what part of the article poster had in mind

use 'quote' when quoting please

I'm sorry to surprise you but I don't have a problem with black people.

you surely have a problem with black people - didn't you know they find the word 'murzyn' offensive - they don't want to be called Moors anymore - they want to be treated as human beings - calling them Moors suggests that you think they are from Mars - how more offensive can you get

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

Sadly this attitude holds back the work of many who are trying to restore ties and build bridges for a better future.

not many Jews are about building bridges with Poland - they are mostly after 'restoring Jewish property' in Poland or 'getting compensations' for it -

yes, it's offensive.

btw I haven't seen 'Murzynek Bambo' in current Polish school books if you are so sensitive - looks like a non-issue after all

yes it's offensive 'cause it says - 'czarną ma skórę ten nasz koleżka' (black-skinned is our little bloke) - everyone knows that most blacks are actually brown

But should we censor 'Murzynek Bambo' then?

"Murzynek Bambo" is as racist as you can get, the most racist thing about it is of course this line: 'Murzynek Bambo lives in Africa' everyone knows that Murzynek Bambo lives in Detroit or London

without addressing the root causes of an issue

the root cause of the issue is muslim immigration to Western Europe - if Poland can stop muslim immigration here it should

History / What should Russia and Poland do to become if not friends, then at least not enemies? [943]

Do you think the Russians are enemies of the Polish people?

as for the monuments to Russian soldiers - Russian 'liberation' of Poland was just changing one opressive system to another - we didn't want communism - it was imposed by the Soviet army with the help of Polish renegades - this is why many in Poland view the monuments as an insult to Polish independence

as for the question if Poland should remain in the EU: Poland benefits from the EU membership so far, being part of the common European market still benefits Poland, but nothing is set in stone for ever - current pressure from the European commission on Poland to accept 'refugees' has changed the views on the EU in Poland a lot - I think current Polish leadership want us to remain in the EU but will fight tooth and nail not to accept 'refugees'

History / What should Russia and Poland do to become if not friends, then at least not enemies? [943]

but if gas can come to Poland from Germany,

we are currently not on very friendly terms with Germany and I wouldn't rely on them at all - that's first - secondly there is no infrastructure (at the moment) in place to pump gas FROM Germany to Poland even if they would be willing to act as a transit country for Poland

one of the possible scenarios for Poland if it doesn't diversify gas supplies would be hiking of the gas prices by Russia (which are already very high - Germany pays substantially less for their gas from Russia) - Poland doesn't need to buy all it's gas in America, it only needs it as a reserve supply to keep the pressure on Russian gas prices

News / Poles say a big YES to our European Union [957]

Keeping wages low to prevent a certain group of EU citizens from moving to Poland would be a unique approach.

I haven't said we need to artificially keep the wages down - the realistic assesment is that Polish wages are 3-4 times lower than those in Germany and the UK, probably France too - it will not change overnight and it will not probably change drastically in the coming 4-5 years

as for the language barrier - I don't know French - but I know basic German and I can tell it is much simpler than Polish - I guess you don't know Polish that well The Other - Polish has very steep learning curve for non-Slavic people - coupled with low wages it will be a barrier enough in the foreseeable future -

History / What should Russia and Poland do to become if not friends, then at least not enemies? [943]

I could not find it in the European news, do you have any information on this?

you couldn't find it in European media because it is simply not true - Poland is happy to be a transit country for Russian gas - it's Russia who is trying to circumvent Poland and this is why it has built NordStream, Opal and is set on building NordStream2

Poland wants to diversify it's gas sources not to be prone to Russian gas blackmail

when Yamal pipeline was the only one Russian gas could reach Germany Poland was safe to receive it's own bought share - now we are vulnerable - (well not so vulnerable after building of the LNG sea terminal in Świnoujście)

Poland has to leave the EU.

fortunately the language barrier and relatively low wages keep German Turks, French Algerians and Spanish Moroccans out of Poland - we do not have much to fear about in the near future in this area
