History / Ghetto Uprising better known than Warsaw Uprising? [111]

@marion kanawha
Cause most Jews lived in Poland, it was when Tsarist Russia started to conquer eastern parts of the commonwealth that many Jews became a part of Russia.

When Jews ran from one country to another, most of them found a safe haven in Poland and stayed as they weren't exiled but protected by law.

Until after ww2 it didn't change much and many more were in the U.S instead.

@Lyzko
You are free to quote Dmowski or Mościcki supporting alliance with Germany or how it is you think they sympathetic to anti-semitism

Law / The right to own guns: would you support such legislation in Poland? [2237]

@pawian
If there were clubs for shooting, it would be a safe place to deposit it or have a place to lock it up.

Most Polish households don't have such possibility nor sheds with coded safe or cellars adequate to stock up items that are not meant for children.

So for most part it will continue to be strictly regulated and controlled by the government as far as I can see it

For it to change, it would require more responsible men in Poland for it even to become an option

Law / The right to own guns: would you support such legislation in Poland? [2237]

@pawian
Yeah, I know. It's not an overnight process, and a government policy change would be too quick

Amateurs around weapons are the gravest dangers, as shown quite clearly in your post.

Which is why gun owners should have them locked up in safe locker rooms, kids being taught how to handle weapons from a young age with wooden made looking weapons that cannot fire.

Or simply weak rubber/wood sticks swords as to know how to behave with weapons. Banning weapons momentarily is done in critical situations as to cool off hot heads from stabbing each other.

Problem in Poland is that hotheads are a constant, not an irregularity! :)

Boy Scouts should add practice with swords/firearms as to avoid such situations I think (with use of non-lethal weaponry)

I was thinking about pentagrams, besides your using a talking point typical for a charlatan: "How come you don't like hugs? Hugs are the best! Let me hug you!"

You either pretend that there are no ulterior motives, or will fully ignore the agenda that it has the destruction of family units.

Either way

Cause they are worse, and something being better or worse are not strong words.

It's merely describing something, like milk tasting better then water, but worse after several weeks of decay.

No, I was not calling for a ban... You don't seem to understand what I write and communicate differently.

If I was calling for a ban I would write as an example: I am calling for a ban on satanic symbols

As I stated earlier, it's a lie to think I don't support any human being to have and excersise freedom

jon357

How much do you support freedom and to what extent? Do you support killing? Murder? Hanging? Bullying? Torture?

If yes then, does it limit to the elderly? Unborn? Newborn? Women? Men? Minorities? Animals? Political opponents? Political allies? Family? Strangers? Your dog? Or a dog in China ready to be cooked?

Dolphins? Rats? Cats? Mice? Horses?

Ask yourself that, I can already guess your answer.

@jon357
England can afford to be a laughing stock, which is heavily implied and underlined by laughing off themselves, which Americans have copycatted in their own way. But being squeezed between Germany and Russia, does not come appreciative to hear from anyone about laughs about Poland cause Germans and Russians alike are the happiest and most joyful when they have partitioned and occupied Poland and can talk all possible nonsense and lies on Poland's expanse, every time somebody does the same, it only reminds every single Pole of the time somebody laughed of their feelings or tragedies and were told to "buckle up"

I assure it's not welcome at all and forever remembered.

If you want to challenge a Pole, man up and do it like a man. Just don't come here "whimping" "how rascist all Poles are" you should known better.

That is a lie, but don't come here telling me I look fondly to people celebrating and supporting evil, tyranny, trickery and creating mayhem and murder which you very often show support for on this forum.

You just like many others here chose and continue to chose evil, I do not, won't and have no plans of doing it.

If somebody chooses evil it is their choice, but if I have a say in the matter. I won't ignore if I have the means to alter their actions from dooming themselves.

You might tout all you won't about not stopping a reckless suicidal, I would, have and will step in if anybody tries doing it near me.

THAT is the difference between you and me, so don't come here trying to convince you are compassionate, kind or help the oppressed or downtrodden. Because you will not convince me even an inch in that direction.

And have a good day

You seem to be a lost cause, hopefully I am wrong about it.

@pawian
What you don't seem to understand is that freedom comes with responsibility, using freedom as a carte blanche to ignore somebody walking off the cliff while you could have saved them from it, puts your own soul in trouble.

You are not a toddler as far as I know, yet a teacher and an adult. Nobody likes people butting in, but being a Christian isn't about being liked.

You can talk and write all you want, but if you declare yourself a feminist but avoid responsibilities and not take action when in need of it, I am surprised if any women would entertain the thought of being with you.

But again, I can be fully wrong! Maybe that's excactly what people need? Irresponsible not doing anything men?!

Now I am off and done with my frustrations for the day. Hope you are able to ignore me blowing off some steam today

Language / Is the term 'Polak' derogatory?? [254]

@johnny reb
First and foremost Polish accents are not funny yet dry and boring, and rather stiff. German accents are a lot more funnier to the ear in English, Polish and Norwegian.

If you want to make fun of Poles Please do it accurately, otherwise you only prove yourself ignorant and definitively not funny. Unless saying it among equally ignorant people.

I can give you an example, saying that Stockholm is too hot in the summer and expected it to be colder due to it being the capital of Denmark would only envoke anger and rolling eyes, while saying that you better not eat fish in Sweden as it's more rotten then the state of Denmark. Can be understood as witty and with class due to mentioning a reference from a famous play by Shakespeare.

So when you talk about "funny" accents in a way of

Funny accent ;)

Then it's not appreciated, while mentioning that thank goodness Poles got their accent like it is, cause in Czechia they got roofshitters. One might actually catch a smile or two from the audience.

If you try dry humour then dad jokes are typically more popular, especially wordplay

For instance: "Ever heard of a deaf German? Neither have I"

@pawian
Some people bond over mocking other people, since between friends it isn't considered serious. Yet ignoring public mocking was a very harsh lesson for most Poles with deadly and disastrous consequences, which serves more as a proof of hostile intentions.

Any form of harming somebody's reputation is a lot more sensitive to Poles then to other nations due to the fact of being isolated internationally cause of it, and anyone contributing to it for Russia is viewed negatively. To internet trolls great amusements due to their own perception of self worth and mindset of people should be able to "handle" such attacks and scuff it off. Especially from Americans who don't value one's own reputation to such degree as Poles.

Yet it only shows their lack of power and influence in their own lives and are overjoyed over such reactions just like a little child who enjoys attention while doing something bad.

Okey... just to make a point across. Cause it seems you are 100% blind to what you are writing.

As to #619

You think those same insurgents fought for every Polish citizens freedom to wear which ever or symbol they liked? Example: red and black coloured flags and to wear satanic symbols like stars or other symbols linked with mockery of God, faith or the church?

I would like to your honest opinion about it, comes comes across very often on this forum that you "claim" to be Christian, yet I see very little of it. I observe far more mind control initiatives then Christianity from you (and other members on this forum)

So do tell, how do you view freedom to sin vs "freedom" to be on the wrong side, a.k.a as a personal choice.

News / Jagiellonian Politics on Steroids [19]

@GefreiterKania
First it seems that Warzecha is basing his view on how eastern Poland is developing/improved compared to western Poland.

As far as I know Poland won't gain any form of direct/formal control over Ukraine so such worries are misplaced.

Besides, west has lost everything that was positive about in recent years, it has turned in to such decadence that it's compareable with falling Byzantium, falling western Rome and falling China of the 19th century.

Influx and increased contact with Ukraine and the east in general will not only keep Poland on it's toes, increase it's discipline and attention but, also create a stronger block of slowing down any decadence simply cause "We don't have time for that, look at Russia in Ukraine!"

Poland is still keeping it's democratical and anti-tyranical traditions alive. Mostly thanks to Polish women at large, given evidence from posters such as @Lenka, @Paulina and @pawian

So I don't worry about easternization of Poland, far from it. Far more concerned about practices who turn people away from love, but shoves it in to hate, malice and will to dominate all life. As one by one, countries fell to that power in the west.

@Lenka
Male expectations and needs are not the same as with a female, humans, animals alike. We even need different food, so no. By not having a house or a job I might as well shoot myself, and that's not an option for me...

@Paulina
No I am not, there are many different kinds of women and those who are stubbornly passionate to copy-cat men and live a "man like lifestyle" are ruling the waves of opinions in the west to societies downfall.

A womens need for materials and ressources being insanely driven to the extremes turns capitalistic, while men's need to ensure a healthy women that can deliver a healthy child taken to the extremes wants to visit strippers and pay for it (which is also abhorant mind you)

Peoples lack of such awareness leads to downfall of western society piece by piece, one only has to look at the marriage ratings, people think it's exchangeable like gloves while in reality it's a sacred and holy commitment.

I will not be silent or stand idle as more children in this world grow up without the best prospects, simply because somebody feels "oppressed " toot hoot. Grow up

It would be a welcoming change to have women wanting and being able to stay at home, take care of the house, kids, cook, bake, invite her friends and their kids over for tea and biscuits while talking about the newest information.

Diametrically better then slaving off to some corporation that wouldn't give a rats ass about women that worsen their lives as much as possible and exploit them, just for the sake money.

It might come as surprising but I find most women to be abhorantly capitalistic, only pretending to want to share anything as not to "look" bad.

It's a farce!

History / Recommended Poland's history books [257]

@marion kanawha
Your most welcome, glad to be of assistance to you.

When Polish history is read in Polish, it is grammatically correct to use "Zygmunt" due to it being the Polish version of the Latin name Sigismund.

Due to English history rarely touching the subject of Poland in the past, when great minds and historians decided in an orderly fashion which versions and words to use in the English language. It's fairly open to interpretation which form is best used. I would advice to use the form which is easiest for an English reader to read, as it's aimed at an English audience by use of English (or international with the use of English).

I would have consulted more with a somebody majoring English language, and history to solve that question

History / Recommended Poland's history books [257]

@marion kanawha
That's caused by use of Latin in Poland to a much higher degree then other european states. (Especially compared to England, a English queen was quite taken aback when dealing with Polish diplomats due to Polish trade ships being attacked by english privateers. Due to useage of latin, which the queen had to brush up on.)

So many translations or use can be more connected to latin, then Polish. Sigismund (scandinavian is Sigmund) is latin version of Zygmunt and so on.

History / What do Poles owe to Hungarians? [275]

@gumishu
To me it is unknown, but I wouldn't be surprised if major powers back then wanted Austrias ally to be stripped off as much power as possible so that Austria would essentially become unimportant and powerless + give Hungarians something more to dislike Austrians about.

Got to remember that the Germans (central powers in general) were vilified as "The Huns". So this most likely was a continuation of the thinking too.

Hungarians becoming so small and controlling so little became so insignificant politically that basically nobody were seriously considering them as a ally and too much trouble to help out and expecting help in return. (Anyone would have to pay more then to receive back, which halts most interests and limits it. Even to this day)

Have 1 allied state at cost of worse relations with 5-6 nations? And smaller then the rest.

We as Poles have looked sympathetically towards Hungarians due to history (common foe/rivalry with Austrians, standing up to Turks and shared fighting spirit with the Soviet Union)

Now that Hungary is dependent on Russia during the Ukrainian crisis and potentially wants a little land grab of Ukraine (ignoring Ukraines military capabilities and resolve+Polish backing)

National strategical interests change as Hungary doesn't seem to see Russia as a threat to Hungary

How would you react if I based on my perception of somebody on how much water one has? Sounds redundant, stupid and weird right? But, when in the Sahara desert, a small oasis and only a few armed men are allowed access. It suddenly doesn't look wrong anymore now does it?

No matter if everyone there had gold bars after gold bars in their posessions or briefcases filled with dollars.

So many people are blinded by greed, I almost feel like giving up on you all.

Thanks for the compliment anyways.

Well I do try, first women I met that talked to me about wanting kids had very weird behaviour. Probably asberger, asked questions in a cold weird manner without context, extremaly shy and looked everywhere with her eyesight except to me.

One side she doesn't look bad + wants kids

But, the weird part is very off putting so. I don't know
