Life / The "I am never wrong" phenom - is it the Polish thing? [63]
I don't know if this is uniquely Polish, but it's a smart strategy.
For example - you are flying as a delegation to an important event abroad. After hearing warnings from the pilots controlling the aircraft that landing is too risky, you choose to berate them and leverage your higher rank to force them into making further unsafe decisions. The plane crashes killing all aboard.
Immediately the eternal question arises - who to blame? Just as fast - the answers comes - blame the Russians.
Anyway- is this a Polish thing? Making something that is your fault -somebody elses fault.
