Off-Topic / What is a woman? [809]

Rich & PolAmKrakow,
There you guys go again, looking for easy solutions to complex problems!
When will you finally realize that life is a mission, not a joy ride and sometimes
we have to do things we don't want to do, if only to preserve social peace
rather than create social warfare?

People can only be marginalized so much before they lash out at their enemies.

News / Will PiS be happy if AfD wins elections in Germany? [1442]

@Rich,
For better or worse, the US thrives on immigration, however, LEGAL immigration.
You have to face facts that the AfD is simply Nazism rearing its ugly head....once again.
You'd think the Germans would have learned by this point, although thankfully, the AfD
is only a minority, albeit a vocal minority.

@Rich,
Clearly trolling again, are we. Anyway, perhaps I/we can drum some sense into your thick skull!
The AfD wants to cancel ALL Holocaust education from German school curricula, ideally
deport all non-white, Third World migrants, even second or third generation Turkish-Germans
and others, the more extreme among the Alternative founders (including the late Alexander Gauland,
a Le Pen supporter) desire a "return" of erstwhile German territory seized by neighboring Poland and
Czech Republic following Germany's defeat in WWII.

Each mighty convinciing reasons, I'd say. You'd probably disagree, only to be the eternal contrarian.
Even Trump only wishes to deport known criminals or drug dealers. Hoecke, Weidel, Gideon et al
consider ANY non-ethnic Germans to be a threat to Germany society, criminal background or not
and herein lies the true horror.

One report from the period records an incident that not long after Columbus landed on Hispaniola,
his Basque mate greeted some of the natives they encountered in his native language and it is
claimed the natives understood him!

As with many a doubtless apocryphal tale, plenty of good stories have been ruined by oververification.

You're missing the point here, Rich!

Native Americans are the only true Americans,
as all others were by definition immigrants to this country.
After all, when everyone from Columbus to Miles Standish
first landed on our shores, it was the aboriginal inhabitants of
the American mainland who were there to greet them.

Europe as well as much of Asia, e.g China or Japan, have a far different
history, that of a far more historically homogeneous ethnicity than
the US.

"Hyphen-free" would then mean anyone of Native American extraction,
since the so-called "Indians" arrived on this continent before anybody else....
including the Vikings, Celts or any white Europeans!!

A "black widow" is indeed a variety of poisonous spider.

Language / Game - guess Polish idioms/sayings in direct English translation - part 2 [816]

@Rich,
"Have you a better one?" is British English!
We Yanks tend to use the modal auxilliary "Do + pronoun",
where as the Brits mostly forego this usage:

"Have you some change?" vs. "Do you have some change?"
etc.

Both are technically correct. Cf. German from Germany vs. Austrian or Swiss High German. etc.

A parasite is often a convenient label for someone or ones who
honestly need help and the deserved assistance that comes from providing
basic, human services for all citizens worthy of such assistance.

A few scammers out there, as with a few rotten apples, shouldn't be allowed
to destroy the entire crop, should it!

Speech may be free, however the violence which it could incite, isn't and should
indeed be punished swiftly and surely!

For this very reason, the FRG to this day doesn't allow for jokes about the Nazi period,
either in public, in open forum or in print.
