News / Referendum to decide about exotic immigrants in Poland [559]


Come on, be serious...

In a domestic setting, perhaps. Not commercially.

Egypt is 110M people, and a GDP almost $2T in PPP.

There are very poor areas of Egypt, and very rich areas - sure. But they know what a tractor is, and have the means to buy one. It just doesn't make sense when your total property is 1 hectare, which I think you are talking about. Then it really is better to use an ox, or borrow your neighbor's tractor.

My god, why this of all the things I said? I will come home from work, and do a proper post for you about Polish collaboration in suppressing the Hungarian revolt.

Here is an article in one of the largest newspapers in Russia, with an entire section titled: "The Ukrainian from Siberia".

His parents were born to Ukrainian settlers who moved to Siberia.

Yeah, and they are Ukrainian or Polish on the patrilineal side.

Poland and Hungary were cooperating in their little nasty mutiny. Poland got "bonked" first. Very quickly at that. Then Poland became instrumental in explaining to us how everything worked inside the Hungarian liberal camp, and in identifying the key persons to be removed.

Is "Chernenko" not enough for you? What Russian, or Belarusian has a name ending in "-Ko"? He is either a dirty Hohol or a Pole.

I noticed you did not mention the crushing of the Prague Spring. I suppose your Google skills were sufficient for that.

Now, do some research into Gomulka's actions after Soviets helped him stabilize situation in Poland. What did he promise? What did he do?

Yes, this is why in the 20th century we had more Ukrainians leading us than Russians.

Educate yourself about what assistance Polish brothers provided to friendly government in Moscow.

Poles were the attack dogs of the Kremlin.

History / Poles should apologise to Russians first [14]


Russia is modern Sparta, and America is modern Athens.

One is impoverished, conservative, patriarchal, and militant. The other is wealthy, liberal, pluralistic, and commercial.

One is basically standing as a lone warrior in the field, the other is surrounded by numerous allies - beholden to it by links of gold.

I will not tell you who won in the end. You can read the History of the Peloponnesian War, for that.

If it has not been clear from my past 5 years of posting - I am a Pan-Slavist. Have been, since my grandfather indoctrinated me into it when I was very young. It's why I'm here, because I love Polish history - Siege of Vienna, Winged Hussars, and Kosciusko in America included.

Only later I started trolling, when my Russian genes woke up.

@Novichok

I've seen Poles surprised at this a few times, but Russians that actually know history and read books - don't really joke about Polish military prowess. Poles - historically (important caveat) - are quite good at war despite their incompetent political leadership.

Also, you are not fooling anyone in the East about being peaceful for 500 years. We remember well how you were Napoleon's torpedo, or how you and the Ukrainians butchered each other in the 20s. We also remember how Poles were happy to be in the front when crushing the Hungarians and Czechs in the 20th century. Russians almost didn't have to do anything.

If Poles were as big as Russia, and as well armed, it would be much scarier for the world. So it is good Poland is inside her nice little borders. Russians are positively docile next to Poles. Poles are the Chechens of Europe lol

Explain.

Off-Topic / Being a Slav: a blessing or a curse? [199]


What to a Russian is a casual discussion, is to a Pole a long party with food and alcohol. Makes sense.


Yes, back to topic... I agree with you - how can I hate myself? However, objectivity demands we apply a neutral framework here.

I would say, for most of human history - being a Slav was not fun. We were so far on the periphery, that we never experienced the Roman or Byzantine Empires in the same way the French, Germans, or Spanish did. For ages we were being kidnapped and sold into slavery by Turks, Greeks, Tatars. We acted as a meat cushion for the rest of Europe during Mongol invasion. We missed out on all the benefits of global trade, due to being locked up in the puddle people call the Baltic Sea, and being bottled up in the Black Sea. For centuries, there was almost nothing we contributed to science or art, instead being used as faceless masses of mercenaries by European despots.

However, starting in the middle of the 19th century the Age of Slavs had come. Long in the shadows - the time came to take center place. Now, I would not trade being a Slav for an Anglo in a thousand years.

History / Recommended Poland's history books [257]


Give some credit to your Polish ancestors... Geography and demography are fate.

America has two absolutely harmless and utterly peaceful neighbors - Canada and Mexico. Then, America has two incredibly powerful allies - the Atlantic and the Pacific Oceans. America is blessed with nearly every element to be found in the period table, and has enough energy to cover its needs for centuries. The climate is conducive to agriculture, across the majority of the country's territory.

Even a monkey would make a great country out of the USA.

Poland has historically been between three fires - a Germanic one, a Russian one, a Turkish one. Each of these powers, applied their hand to weakening the structure of Polish government. With rivers of German, Russian, and Turkish money pouring in to back this or that decision, can you really blame the Magnates for putting Poland as secondary in their list of priorities?

A Russian, German, or Turkish prince could offer many times more money than any Polish king could. People are weak and greedy creatures.

Poles are a very violent and warlike people, so it does make some sense that they enjoy the wailing of innocents. It is probably some remnant of the Teutonic occupation, which makes them so cruel.

Life / Are Polish Women very promiscuous towards foreigners and refugees? [197]


In glorious and civilized America, truck stop prostitution flourishes. Rather than something nice like "Tirowki", they are called the decidedly unglamorous name of "Lot Lizards". I hope in his next life Lyzko can be a "Lot Lizard" at a Flying J in West Virginia, and carry on his sociological studies from that vantage point.

Also in the moral capital of the world, hundreds of thousands of people stream their assh0les to strangers over the Internet for money. But here we are, discussing Poles trading sex for butter.

Moscow is the biggest city in Europe, if not counting Istanbul. St Petersburg is the 3rd largest city after London, or 4th if again including Istanbul.

Of course, whatever type of life in Moscow is bigger than Berlin or London.

From Wikipedia article "Prostitution in Poland":

1) A memo from the Secretariat of the Party Central Committee (including Bolesław Bierut who was then Secretary-General), dated 23 November 1955, states that in 1949 there were 4,000 sex workers in Poland, in 1954 1,700 and that 6,000 had been arrested.

2) Data from the Ministry of the Interior, dated 9 February 1957 refer to 1,500 workers in the six major cities.

3) After the fall of the iron curtain (Żelazna kurtyna) in 1989. Changes in Polish society included increasing tourism and trade with the West, acceptability of foreign currency and expanding hotel business, all factors conducive to the growth of the sex trade. Although liable to a large error margin, estimates of the numbers of sex workers were 7,267 in 1962, and 9,847 in 1969. Sometimes referred to as "Servants of Venus" (Służebnice Wenery).

So let's assume Polish bureaucrats were hopeless liars, and that they purposefully underestimated the number of prostitutes in communist Poland by 5 times.

Poland's population in 1969 was 32.5M people. Half of them were women, or 16.25M people. Taking my 5X assumption in hand, that there were actually as many as 50,000 prostitutes, that still ends up being around 0.3% of Poland's female population. If you go by the actual statistics collected, it is 0.06%. So Paulina is being quite generous with her percentages.

To do what? I will remind you - the topic of the thread is making friends with Polish men. I suspect you are speaking about drilling a guy in the ass, which is off topic - because this thread clearly states it is "Not Gay".


It is a fantasy to think you can get by thinking others are more concerned about your safety, than you yourself should be.

Off-Topic / Being a Slav: a blessing or a curse? [199]


Stereotypes about Slavs:

1) Uncomfortably direct
2) Prone to spontaneous bouts of melancholy
3) Largely lazy in comparison to all neighbors
4) Surprisingly hot-blooded for Northerners
5) Not very good with money
6) Interesting relationship between men and women.

I'm sorry if it all sounds too negative, but when I think "stereotypes" - I think negative.

Also, this Nathan guy looks to be a Ukrainian. Where did he go?

That's no reason to be melancholic. My grandparents lived through the war.

13 years on, I am very curious why this Indian man - who is not gay - decided to call himself Polishhunter.

Why is an Indian doctor - who is not gay - trying to to meet Polish men in the UK?

I will start putting "Not Gay:", at the beginning of all my new threads starting now.


Finally someone has commented on this. I was always wondering why my Polish plumber is so pensive and melancholic. The act of tightening a pipe, sets his mind on the eternal.

Thank you Paulina for your kind defense. However, I am trained in dealing with the pig, and require no assistance.

Pig - here is a lesson in statistics. The population number for those countries which you define as Russian (I'm sure), is about 300 million. So about ten times bigger than Poland. I'm very happy you ran a titty bar, as this completes my psychological portrait of you, but I'm not as certain about your ability to identify a Moldovan from a Ukrainian or Slovak.

The reason, as a Russian, that I feel we get more exposed to "your women are ******", is that all the ****** are assumed to be Russian. Most idiots don't know much Eastern geography beyond Russia. So the size of our country works against us in reverse.

In any case, this sentiment is most often espoused by those sorry little gnomes which could not ever be with a Russian or Polish woman unless they paid them for the pleasure.

History / Poles should apologise to Ukrainians first [483]


Here - one has to say, proof. We have been hearing for years about Kremlin funded Marine Le Pen, Orban, Berlusconi, etc. All the opposition managed to present was loan agreements (which were repaid). If French, Hungarian, Italian banks are so afraid of their American masters that they will not lend funds to a leading contender in an election - I say I cannot blame those candidates. For Russians this is not charity as well obviously, but you have to be joking if you think a few million euros to Le Pen can move the needle in any way. She gets votes because there is a demand for her opinions.

By the way, in the previous election all the Russian money was on Fillon. Unfortunately he exploded himself with stupid suit scandal, and hiring his wife and kids. F*cking idiot.

In America this would not even be a question, since it's a free for all when it comes to money - foreign or domestic.
