He saved us from Soviet intervention - Hungary- or Czechoslovakia-style. And he also made it clear that Wojsko Polskie would fight the intervening forces, so the mess would be exponentially bigger than with Czechs or Hungarians.


Wise the f*ck up Pawian, will you? *rolls eyes*

Have you just called my Dad a "homo sovieticus"?


Latest findings by whom? Antoni Macierewicz? Or some other deluded maniacs who would sh*t themselves ten times if they had to go through half of what Jaruzelski was.


Hmm... I suppose the balance of nature is an important thing. So be it.

From all the things you mentioned I am only concerned about the Korean weapons contract. You may be onto something there. But Tusk knows he will take a nose dive in the polls if he f*cks with Wojsko Polskie. He won't dare.

As for the huge infrastructural investments I don't think they will be abandoned (it wouldn't make sense). I haven't heard about any definite plans of abandoning them. As for migrants - even if they are all relocated to Poland, they will be back to Germany, France etc. with light speed. Remember what happened in the last wave, with those who were taken in by Polish parishes? They were given apartments, health-care, education, benefit money, help with finding jobs etc. and after two weeks they were all in Germany. :)

Great post, Bobi - thank you for that.


Pawian will in a moment jump out from behind a bush and start talking about sexual intercourse with everybody's "stalinist granpas" but I will say this: my father, who is a wise and generous man who has been through a lot, has always respected Jaruzelski despite all the mud that was thrown at the general by many "turbo-patriots". I was for a long time skeptical until I started to investigate the history myself and read, among other things, Jaruzelski's book "Być może to ostatnie słowo".

The guy had to make a lot of difficult choices in his life but he had brains and balls, and - most importantly - huge love for Poland in his heart.


Perhaps even more than Poles (which not many of us will admit).

EDIT: Pawian's already here. "Feck your stalinist granpas" phrase will be thrown in 3... 2... 1...

No, I am into one of these goddesses. :) Have been for about 19 years now, and let me tell you something, Iron: if I were born again a hundred times I would marry her again a hundred times.

Weak losers, like johnny here, are into submissive stupid geese not to increase their own insecurities and complexes. Alpha males marry fiery goddesses.

News / Polish Parliamentary Elections 2023 [933]


Exactly.

There is nothing more pathetic than a man needing a woman to be less so he can be more. Only sorry losers, like the old poacher Johnny, dream of passive, submissive, stupid geese. They would look for a place to hide if they ever found themselves around an intelligent, wild, fiery-eyed goddess. Now, taming one of these - that's a job for an alpha male! :)

It's not useless if it brings me satisfaction. :)

Besides, the bolsheviks hated my home city (for a good reason he he), so f*ck 'em.


This remains to be seen. I am willing to give Tusk the benefit of the doubt, but if he repeats his first PO government's antics, I'd be seriously pissed off. :-/


Hey, f*ck you too, Iron. And welcome back :)

EDIT: By the way, check my cool "Pol-Shorpy Photo Thread". :)

Welcome to the club :) Nice to see you back, Iron.


Well, if we are to be fair, they also got the army reinforcements (equipment purchases, territorial defense etc.) more or less right. Social programs were also not the worst idea. Oh, and NBP bought sh*tloads of gold, which is not bad. Also, unemployment is at historical low and wages are rising consistently (inflation eats them up, but it's getting better).

If only they weren't such bolshevik arseholes, treating Poland like their private folwark (did you see how much their propagandist kurwas from TVP made?), and entering Ukrainian anuses with extraordinary zeal, they wouldn't be that bad. Unfortunately, they couldn't rise above their petty political/financial interests and their phobias, so they lost (there was also their idiotic war with teachers - I mentioned it in the Polish Wybory 2023 thread). Good riddance.

Hopefully, Tusk will be less susceptible to outward influence this time and will honour the military contracts with the USA and South Korea. If not, f*ck him too.

No, it's not a still from a Disney movie but a popular tourist place (hotel, restaurant, huge park) organised at historic Moszna Castle (former Schloss Moschen) in Opole Vojvodship, between Prudnik and Krapkowice.

I'd rather watch these videos about the American paradise...







... and hundreds of others, TikTok rants about inflation, inability to escape poverty in America, fentanyl zombies, gay marriage, wokeism, cancel culture etc. etc.

I would take Italy any time instead of all that.

Luckily, I live in Poland - white, Christian, conservative bastion, with minimal structural unemployment, rising GDP and wages, and decent common free education and health service. Face it, Ryszard, perhaps your moving to the US made sense in 1960s but at the moment Poland wins in every possible category. Maybe that's why you're bitter and regret your past betrayal of your country and culture? Hmm... yeah... that's probably it.

Yes, I am a Christian but I am not a saint; and it would take a saint to apologise first after what those beasts did.

You didn't take my deal, so why should I take yours?

Besides, cancel culture is not codified in any official law, is it? And yet it works perfectly in America.

News / Poland - A True Bastion and Defender of Free Speech [250]


Well, there were demonstrations organised with "Stop the Ukrainisation of Poland!" and "Not our war!" banners. Admittedly, not many people attended them but they happened. There are journalists writing mildly pro-Russian articles (Warzecha in "Do Rzeczy") or openly pro-Russian ones ("Myśl Polska"), also predicting Russian victory, and nobody persecutes them.

You have a totally wrong idea of Poland and Europe. Perhaps you really did become thoroughly americanised after all...

History / Poles should apologise to Ukrainians first [434]


For the sake of the alliance I am willing to agree that Poland should apologise to Ukrainians first, as you propose.

I have only two preliminary conditions:

1. That hell freezes.
2. That pigs start to fly.

None of your f*cking business, Rysiu-pysiu.


You're an idiot. A couple of years ago, one of my students at the university had a t-shirt saying: "Two things should always remain white: Christmas and Poland". Some people laughed at him, some called him an idiot, but nobody really gave him any hard time because of it and he paraded in it through the entire faculty building without any consequences. Can you imagine a student at an American campus in such t-shirt? He would make the nation-wide news and his a*ss would be cancelled for life (let's not forget that cancel culture is an American invention). :)

I don't know if there is anything he has a clue about.

As for being single and living alone abroad, I admit that it's not the most desirable state for a woman to be in. If you would be willing to come back to Poland, I know a guy in Gdynia - and old pal of mine; single, a good Catholic with a decent stable job in insurance, university-level education, 35 years old, no long love life history, he had one, unrequited love - a sad story - and that's pretty much it. What else... moderately handsome, not a master conversationalist but a good guy at heart. PM me for details if you're interested.

Hey, if it's all about the US, then talk about the US. F*ck off with your constant retarded jabs at Poland and discuss only America-related things. This way you will write/read about what's interesting for you, and I won't have to engage in elder abuse. :)
