News / Will Poland help defend Greenland against US Imperialism [333]


Who has he openly and recently "not ruled out" invading.

Anyway, he'd not get away with invading and nor is Greenland for sale.

And who do you think they are if not the Canadians who elect them?


Quite normal for an outgoing leader. He's a good guy,, elected two or three times. Just a shame he's not more radical

I know that already and don't especially need to calm down unless calming down means stopping laughing and stopping any empathy for the people over there who have to put up with that person of bad character who says things like that.

I'd be happier though if your country wasn't about to be governed for 4 years by a gobshite who talks about that.

Some guy in the pub or one of the daft rightwingnuts here can come out with crap like that as much as they like. Elected heads of state or government should watch their tongues more carefully and it is a serious sign of instability and rabble-rousing populism. That never ends well.

At least he and that Namibian Bond villain give us all something to laugh about.

Indeed however that job wasn't to take a friendly country's sovereign territory.

There is already a very large military base there and has been for decades. There's no reason to invade and every reason not to.

Life / Racism in Poland - the future [558]

It wasn't, it was bloody obtuse as usual.

Why would someone criticise Canadians, most of whom descended from migrants or migrants themselves, from being migrants?

News / Will Poland help defend Greenland against US Imperialism [333]


Noi, I saw it and don't disagree.
They can't, in the sense of "can't" for permission, and Putler hasn't 'taken' Ukraine despite getting.

Putler and Xi are both twats and their behaviour is unacceptable to the international community.


He's a twat too. Do you really want a president with the absent moral compass of Putler and Xi?

Oooh, the big bad boys down the street are shoving fireworks up cats arses? Why can't I?

How sweet.

It's morning here and I'm sat in the office drinking coffee and checking the internet.

That's been a given for a few years now. At least they're open.

Of course if trumpet starts messing around with Greenland etc, he'll be on his own with that one.

Did you know that China in a few years time will be able to turn off the water for a huge part of India. To do with a major river being dammed. They think a long way ahead and plan very carefully.

It will certainly end badly for him and the orange rapist.

He gets more and more like a Bond villain every day and of course here in Europe we laugh at him.

News / Will Poland help defend Greenland against US Imperialism [333]


I'd guess 15ish however we'll see the signs earlier and of course China thinks very very long term.

China have got a lot of problems right round the corner and how they deal with them will make a lot of difference to the speed of things.

Do you really need to ask.

Then again, he probably knows himself that Chinese EVs will eventually bury Tesla.

Life / Racism in Poland - the future [558]


So yeah, learn some manners, maybe.

Your post was vague and makes no difference anyway; why shouldn't people buy homes where they live? Any 'pressure' on housing is common in large cities and if anything is the fault of social housing planners and politicians who believe housing is a 'market'.

This occurs regardless of the level of inward migration to a country. If a major city has a surplus of housing it indicates a stagnant or declining economy.

Life / Racism in Poland - the future [558]


Hard to know where you get that from since most of the real estate in Warsaw is owned by and sold to locals.


Who the hell with an IQ over 110 or whatever even watches that drivel?


Evidently I live rather closer to it than you since you seem to be getting conniptions about who lives where.

You can never turn back a clock.

Off-Topic / God and Religion Talk [273]

Preaching at people and quoting dry religious texts is who church attendance in developed countries has plummeted and seems now to be in terminal decline.

News / Will Poland help defend Greenland against US Imperialism [333]


No. It keeps living standards for many over there very low compared to more developed places. The median income in some counties is lower than provincial Romania.


It tries to and they try to be. Their window of power was relatively short though and as a county it is in obvious decline. No empire lasts more than about 3 centuries

Their situation won't get any better than it is now (and in terms of power, they have far less of that than they did 30 years ago)and soon China will call all the shots. For a couple of decades now, their government has been talking about a "post-hegemony world" and threatening your closest allies (as individuals close to the regime have been doing) is a surefire way for those closest allies to be allies no more.

News / Will Poland help defend Greenland against US Imperialism [333]


Perhaps then they should stop trying to impose 'market values' on others of they don't want to be subject to them themselves.


Actually we invented it (and without liberal British radicals there would be no U.S.). Nobody sets 'rules' and if a 'market' is supposed to be free, what 'rules' would there be anyway?

They don't call the shots.

It isn't a free market at all if they don't want market prices or impose tariffs.

A stupid question from a bored troll.


Sign of a booming economy and worth mentioning that the property 'market' in Warsaw is pretty toxic and has been for the past few years.

People.

He argues for the sake of it since he has nothing else in his life..

News / Will Poland help defend Greenland against US Imperialism [333]


Completely nuts. The canal was built in another country; the colonial era is long over, it belongs to them now and they can charge the market rate.

Odd how Americans pretend to like the 'free market' until it bites them in their plus size arses.

Law / Gun control in Poland: should Polish people be allowed to own guns? [1070]


Once again you pretend to misunderstand a comment you reply to.

People in Europe do not want increased civilian gun ownership. Nor do we want the problems that guns have caused over in America where people don't know the difference between a school and a shooting range.

Law / Gun control in Poland: should Polish people be allowed to own guns? [1070]


Nobody does.

And you know perfectly well that we're talking about civilian gun ownership.

Now get lost.

Law / Gun control in Poland: should Polish people be allowed to own guns? [1070]


Exactly.

They don't realise that people don't want mass gun ownership in Europe.

It's as if they want to export their own problems.

Hamburg Parsley?

No; that is only used east of a particular line in Europe, however that is of course a traditional ingredient of the Jewish-style chicken soup that is found around Europe, including PL.

This is the problem. He has nothing to do with Europe.

He should stick to interfering in his own continent instead of promoting nasty neo-fascists in other places.

News / Will PiS be happy if AfD wins elections in Germany? [1404]


He is a loose cannon who tries to use cash to influence domestic politics in countries he has no connection to.

And increasingly acts like some sort of creepy Bond villain.

He may well end up serving a very long prison sentence if he doesn't wind his tongue in.
