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

But they did nothing to address that did they?

Their primary aim was to intimidate and pacify judges so that they decree rulings according to PiS`expectations. It didn`t work coz judges resisted and PiS pressed more and more. Eventually, the EU had to intervene.

PiS are intellectual losers who aren`t able to build anything new, they are only able to introduce destruction.

Kids should know history, of course, but imposing it on them in your style is the best way to give them even more disorders

This is your weird style of teaching history, dolno.

Weird Al Yankovic`s original song - When I was your Age.

Let me tell you sonny, let me tell you straight
You kids today ain't never had it tough
Always had everything handed to you on a silver plate
You lazy brats think nothing's good enough

Have you been having secret threesomes with the Duda's to get such intimate information.

Haven`t I written the source of my info is strictly confidential????

This piece is pure fantasy.

Why? To me, it is quite plausible.

Dolno, I told you a few times to cut down on that crap fake martyrology topics of yours at last. We aren`t duped by those lies about your family suffering during WW2. .

Besides, it is 2020 now, not 1945, if you haven`t nioticed. Kids should know history, of course, but imposing it on them in your style is the best way to give them even more disorders,. Thank you very much.

the gimnazjum was obsolete - it didn't give any added value

Why do you repeat PIS lies? What will you say when it turns out PIS reform also doesn`t give any added value?

Study / Various education and school issues in Poland. Opinions, stories, controversies. [1006]

Have I already written that the number of students with depressive disorders have doubled after PiS reform? So, yes, it is true, the schoolyear 2019/20209 was a record one in this matter. Previously, we had dealt with one case of a depressive student per class on average. Now, it is 2,3 with confirmed depression and other psychic problems which require special approach. That is unbelievable.

I was thinking a lot about the reasons. The reform shortened 3 years of previous junior high school into two final years of primary school - year 7 and 8. Before, primary school had lasted 6 years.

Students and teachers weren`t given a choice - they have had to cover the material of 3 years within 2 years coz the requirements stayed THE SAME! Can you imagine it? In result, teachers pressed on students to work extremely hard both at school and home - parents were furious, too coz they had to help their ambitious kids with homework till late evening.

No wonder it all produced more disorders in kids as they weren`t able to fulfill the requirements and simply snapped under the burden.

Thank you, PiS.

Gumi, do you know we live in capitalism and its basic imperative is to gain profit??? Do you realise how much Fakt earned on their infamous cover and how much they saved on advertising after the scandal broke out??

As shrewd businesspeople, they would be mad not to take advantage of that opportunity.
Don`t make such advanced ideology out of it.

That was tabloid`s typical trick to attract attention, not connected with any foreign influence at all. Rightwing papers do the same thing.

Language / Polish opinions on foreign languages? [54]

he couldn't stand most East Germans...

Partly, it wasn`t their fault. They had been brainwashed by communism which was very strong in East Germany, with all that Stasi and propaganda. Germans are dutiful people so they treated communism seriously. Compared to it, communisty Poland was an oasis of freedom (Rock Festival in Jarocin in 1980s was a shock to East German visitors).

Imagine the mess after two Koreas unite one day. :)

A diplomat is just a messenger.

Yes, in a normal country. Not in Poland under PiS, though. She has to intervene when PIS boys play too brutally - like a mother overseeing kids in a sandbox. She knows PiS fellows are puppets so she treats them likewise. Simple.

loud minority of "useful idiots'"

You haven`t run any polls to establish how many Trzask`s voters are ready to become loud minority, have you?

So, you can`t refute my claim that all of them are loud minority, can you? hahaha

@ziemowit @pawian, you are a funny fellows.

yes, we know. Anything that we don`t know?

would hit PiS even if it is against the interest of Poland.

You are so wrong. Containing PiS` wicked plans is solely in the interest of Poland.

but fortunately you're a part of - loud but shrinking - minority of 'useful idiots'

hahaha minority which amounts to 10 million people. Now YOU are a funny fellow. buhahaha

hahaha no, gumi, you are able to do such things. Who, in 1918 after regaining independence, imagined the right would send their political opponents to the camp?? And it happened in 1930s.

wyborcza used to sell less than 90 thousand copies in june 2019

But if we assume that whole families and friends read it too, it makes double or triple that amount.

Besides, as you noticed, people read online.

nobody reads Wyborcza - i

So, was it a typical rightwing lie or carelessness in the choice of arguments??? Tell us hahahaha

That's a kind of shocking observation for me as I almost never get even a glimpse through it.

I hardly ever saw people reading New York Times, either, mostly in Wall Street etc. The rest prefered tabloids.

Life / Poles - the Nation of Liars? [478]

Sorry polish people, but the experience I have with, is that many polish lie a lot.

Yes, I admit it is a recent trend since rightwing party called PiS (Law and Justice) came into full power in 2015. They had gained that power through multiple lies and then have continued that stratregy over the years. They believe that they can lie like crazy in the name of law and justice and they feel good with it. Today, a day without a few lies is a lost day for them.

They have a lot of supporters, over 10 million, who have been learning from them, and you probably met some of them.

Try to contact Polish people from the centre and left, they don`t lie so much as rightwingers. Only a little, from time to time. E.g., they will still tell you you look beautiful today although it isn`t true coz you didn`t have time to take care of your make up etc..
