News / Russian criticism of Poland - Soviet war memorial removal [332]


I think this ambassador is a Kremlin mouthpiece and human scum. To be honest, I don't care if someone like that is allowed or not allowed to put flowers somewhere. Lithuania, for example, expelled the RuSSian ambassador. Poland didn't (I'm not sure why).


"Deeply"? Seriously? I'm not.


I wonder what would be your opinion about this "mob" if it was your people, your family members getting killed and your country being destroyed by the country proudly and shamelessly represented by this ambassador. Whether you'd be so "deeply ashamed" and judgemental then... :(

They also robbed, raped and killed many Poles and burned their houses. So, even the ordinary Soviet soldiers are, let us say, controversial figures in our history and collective memory in Poland. That's why I think that graves can stay, but statues - no. Just sayin.

Life / Child abuse in Poland [64]

@Alien, "innocent"? What are you talking about? I've read that he already admitted that he's guilty.

Life / Child abuse in Poland [64]


That seems highly unlikely to happen in a Polish prison these days:

I also often read comments of people convinced that a peadophilic rapist is going to be "punished properly" in prison by fellow inmates which is simply a fantasy:

Nah, women want love and kids. Men want sex and dinner. There, I fixed it for you :)

History / Future of Kaliningrad Oblast - is it possible to annex by Poland or will it become an independent country? [146]


Yes, it is. It should have been done long ago... It was always mind-boggling for me that RuSSians kept that name. It's like spitting in the faces of his victims.


This is not "meaningless and stupid", you sovok. 😡

Life / Child abuse in Poland [64]


Yes, they were living in her sister's flat together with that sister and her husband. The boy's aunt and uncle witnessed the abuse and didn't help him either:

fakt.pl/wydarzenia/polska/slask/matka-8-letniego-kamila-oszukiwala-urzednikow-aby-wyludzic-swiadczenia/4s28w4r

What the f*ck is wrong with those people? I can't comprehend this.

And what about neighbours? They lived in a flat. The neighbours didn't hear the screams of a child being burned alive on a furnace??

Life / Child abuse in Poland [64]

Kamilek died today in the morning: 😭😭😭

wiadomosci.wp.pl/nie-zyje-8-letni-kamil-podano-przyczyne-smierci-6895738913508128a

This case shocked Poland lately... The 8-year-old Kamil was abused by his stepfather - he broke the child's limbs, burned him with cigarettes, poured boiling water on his body and burned him on a furnace. His burns were untreated probably for as long as 10 days with his clothes "glued" to his body. The boy's mother didn't help him. Only when his biological father visited and saw his son he called for an ambulance. Kamilek was immediately put into an induced coma in the hospital. Doctors were fighting for the boy's life since the 3rd of April. He died of multiple organ failure.

Everybody failed that little boy - institutions and adults.

May he rest in peace (finally)... 🕯️

The monster and his victim:



The b1tch known as the boy's "mother":



I honestly think having kids should be a privilege and not a right. 🤬

@Alien, that's a pretty disturbing joke... Why did you post it?

How would you call it then? That was a rather strange reaction in a thread about jokes, etc.

History / Can anyone from Poland tell me about Auschwitz and The Ghetto? [625]

@pawian, nobody's perfect ;D

History / POLAND: EASTERN or CENTRAL European country? [1090]


Me neither lol
Sorry, maybe I didn't make myself clear :) I didn't write that Poland is an "European/Asian" mutant country like Russia. I wrote that Poland is similar in a way to RuSSia in the sense that they're both "mutant" countries. It's just RuSSia is a hybrid between Europe and Asia and Poland is a hybrid between the West and the East of Europe.

History / POLAND: EASTERN or CENTRAL European country? [1090]


I think that's how Poles view Poland too. That's why it makes most sense for us to call ourselves "Central", I guess.
I disagree, however, that we are borrowing only the worst from both West and East - that's a prejudiced notion :) We borrow the good, the bad and the ugly from both worlds :)))


So, is the Czech Republic Central or Eastern European according to you (or the "experts")?


What do you mean by "HRE"? Holy Roman Empire? If that's the case then Hungary was never part of HRE, because Holy Roman Empire never managed to conquer Hungary, as far as I understand.

Tacitus, as for RuSSia - the only people I've encountered who didn't consider RuSSia to be Europe were RuSSians themselves. RuSSia geographically is both in Europe and Asia. Mentally too, I think. This makes it similar to Poland in a way - a mutant country.

History / Can anyone from Poland tell me about Auschwitz and The Ghetto? [625]


Russian in their case - a force of habit, sorry :))

History / Can anyone from Poland tell me about Auschwitz and The Ghetto? [625]


Poles warned Germans... They didn't listen...


And greedy. So were Poles, to some extent. Everybody could see what Putin was like and what he was gradually doing to RuSSia. Many clearly chose to ignore it and do business as usual. That's one of the accusations made by the RuSSian opposition and I think they're right. We should realise our moral and strategic failures in order not to repeat such mistakes in the future...

History / Can anyone from Poland tell me about Auschwitz and The Ghetto? [625]

@pawian, of course I'm not comparing Nordstream to such stuff, have mercy on me... :) I meant that mistakes in policies can lead to such tragedies like the war in Ukraine when we're "feeding" the regimes of such people like Putin. I realise that it's not the right thread for such reflections though, sorry!


Yes, of course, it's very important.

History / Can anyone from Poland tell me about Auschwitz and The Ghetto? [625]

@pawian, I don't know if it's such a "trivial" stuff... We should learn from history and not repeat the same mistakes...

Anyway, that's good that all of them were there:

Law / Polish Police and Their Tactics [237]

As one can see based on the photos those were counter-terrorism exercices. Another quote from the article:

'Kamiński said Wolf-Ram-23 envisaged terrorist attacks "using chemical, biological, radioactive and nuclear material," and was therefore "a highly complex exercise, requiring extraordinary performance and coordinated action by various agencies."

He added that the drills gave Polish officers an "immensely valuable" opportunity "to benefit from the knowledge, experience and tactics of FBI agents."'

And from the Polish police site:

policja.pl/pol/aktualnosci/230325,Cwiczenia-dowodczo-sztabowe-pod-kryptonimem-Wolf-Ram-23.html

"The difficult situation over the Eastern border demands being ready at all times from various services as well as improving skills in tackling crisis situations. The goal of organising such exercises is coordinating and cooperation of security services and testing the procedures that are in place in case of danger."

Law / Polish Police and Their Tactics [237]

Wolf-Ram-23 - the biggest exercises of the Polish police (+ firefighters, paramedics, etc.) in history, together with American FBI, are taking place in Poland:

"Some 2,600 Polish police officers are exercising together with dozens of FBI agents in various cities in Poland this week, in the largest such drills in the history of Polish law enforcement, the country's interior minister has said."

Off-Topic / Best posters [886]

@Lenka, I was writing in Russian more carefully, because the last time I wrote in cyrillic was years ago, so it doesn't come naturally to me :)


That's an interesting observation! I don't think I'm much of a rebel (unless it is necessary, I guess), I've always been a good girl lol :))) Of course, if I have to write faster, take some notes or sth, my handwriting looks different, not so neat and proper, but I was trying to make it intelligible, so it would be easier to analyse :)


What did you think it would look like? 👀

Here's my handwriting sample (I was writing fast, so I think it came out spontaneous enough) :):

Off-Topic / Best posters [886]


I wouldn't say so - in your case, for example, I mentioned "impulsive, possibly somewhat impatient". "Needs attention" could be also interpreted as "attention-seeker", but I'm no expert, so I decided not to go that far :)

@Atch, your handwriting looks a bit complicated, I'm not advanced enough to analyse your artistic esy-floresy, I'm afraid :))) So some basic, random stuff that I gathered from the internet for now:

Atch: balanced, fairly open, artistic, rational, independent, needs some personal space, discreet, imaginative/creative, setting high goals (not always?), high self-esteem (not always though?), active, initiative, passionate, decisive, curious, with ambition for progress and reaching goals, strong will, impatient, mentally quick with intuitive thinking, extraverted, affectionate, kind. On the negative side: vivacity without reflection, rationalization or previous planning.

Btw, based on their handwriting Bobko and Lenka are discreet too :)


That was one of the options - different articles would give different interpretations and I'm no expert on this, so I didn't know which to choose :)

The options were (as far as I remember):
1. loyal
2. cautious
3. organized and methodical, pays attention to detail


Yeah, I wasn't sure about that (the same with Lenka). I've only looked through basic info and I'd probably need a bigger handwriting sample :)


That would be interesting!

Please cut down on your quotes

;D No, come on, I just got lazy after dinner ;))


Yes, I thought the same!

@Atch, I just ate dinner and can't bring myself to analyse your handwriting, but it shows you have an artistic soul, imho :)))

@Bobko lol


;D

You are most welcome, Lenka! lol

Bobko, how about you? What do you think about my analysis of your handwriting?? ;D

Language / Two Survivals or Metamorphoses of Polish Folk Songs [5]


I'm not sure if I remember it right, but I think it's possible that in the version that my mother sang to me there was "dziecko" instead of "ciebie", like here:

wiersze.juniora.pl/wyliczanki/wyliczanki_a03.html

"Nic nie będą robiły,
Tylko dziecko bawiły."

You could insert the child's name here too instead of "dziecko" (child), I guess:

"Nic nie będą robiły,
Tylko Paulinkę bawiły." :)
