Off-Topic / Stock Market and Trading Talk [1011]

Ive heard theyre trying to unionize in the US but it failed.

Unions always fail in the end.
Typical Socialist/Communist mentality.....they Just don't understand why their mere existence is just so wrong and idiotic!

Travel / I'm so bored in Poland! [129]

and everyone stares at me

I never get that in Poland.

Nobody smiles either

That is true, but you will find that in London,Paris, Amsterdam, Berlin etc,etc....only Americans smile that much and to be fair, half the time I think it's false.

History / Terrible past for the Jews in Poland? [930]

People who harbour all that nastinesa shouldn't be hated?

Did I say that?
No, I did not.
But you are a bit like Pawian, you are, to a lesser degree, narrow minded.
The Jews did things, some unintetionaly and others deliberately that alienated them to Poles.
The lack of assimilation was the big one.
Educated Jews did assimilate in their droves.
But the uneducated poorer masses caused the main problem.
And that bad feeling against Jews then fed back and hurt the assimilated Jews.
There is no right and wrong here.
This was a huge misunderstanding between two culrures.

Forget their nationality- their nastiness is what matters

Again,childish comment without a true appreciation of history.

History / Terrible past for the Jews in Poland? [930]

So do I, darling. I critisize Polish nationalists` attitude to Jews which escalated from rejection through persecution to murder.

You may well have some cause for concern in what you say.
But it is your fervour and hatred of these Poles that sticks in my craw.
Can you really not be open minded enough to see both sides?
I don't think there was anyone to blame for the Polish/Jewish enmity.
It just evolved from occurrences and some actions from both sides.
Playing the blame game is just childish.

Law / Why is Poland importing so much coal? [76]

rightard populists

You have a very narrow minded point of view.
What may be true in Poland does not necessarily translate well to other countries.
Be more open minded about right wing politics.
I am not even sure that I would label PIS as purely right wing.
There is a communistic totalitarian element to them too.

To show how Polish nationalists cherishing National Democracy antisemitic "ideals" persecuted and murdered Polish Jews

You are the same as the leftists in the UK or USA.
You have nothing but hatred of your own countries past.
I get criticism of aspects of your countries history.
But to defame your own country, be it Poland, UK or USA would generally be described as treason.

Food / Polish Christmas Eve Dinner recipes [84]

So, tell us, darling, what you consider traditional Polish

Like British cuisine.
Anything that comes from the main inhabitants of their country.
Goulash is incorporated into Polish cuisine but we all know that it is not a traditional Polish dish.Same as Jewish cuisine.
Or Indian cuisine in Britain that was devised in Britain and is now a very popular part of British cuisine, but is still not traditional.

(just like in Poland prepared) is really kosher. If not, it is not Jewish.

A good point.
But either way, it is not traditional Polish cuisine.

News / NATO expansion in northern Europe - great news for Poland [137]

Venerable US President Joe Biden signed accession protocols on Tuesday approving the admission of Finland and Sweden to NATO

That is all well and good but Biden is not venerable...he is barely coherent!

He needs to stand down as he suffers from dementia.

Food / Polish Christmas Eve Dinner recipes [84]

Sorry @Miloslaw but you are wrong.
Karp po żydowsku is Polish

That's like saying that some Indian Currys are traditional British cuisine, because they were invented in Britain!
Yes they may be part of our current cuisine, but, just like the Jewish food, they are not traditional.
Do you really not see the subtle difference?

Food / Polish Christmas Eve Dinner recipes [84]

Being a Brit by birth, rearing and education, your judgement on what is or isn`t Polish cuisine verges on ridiculous.

That is your misjudgment.
Maybe The Poles.that left Poland during the war were a bit more Polish than your parents......

Milo, yes, karp po żydowsku has become traditional Polish
food

That's as maybe.
But it is still not Polish Cuisine.

@Paulina
You make some very good points as you always do.
But I am sorry, Polish Jewish cuisine, for me, is just that.
Very good food but Polish Jewish.
Not Polish.

Life / Polish products in foreign shops [35]

Nope! There is a draw - more of harmful sugar counterbalances less of harmful vinegar

You are wrong again, as you so often are.....
Sugar is bad for you, we all know that.
Vinegar has proven itself to be an effective deterrent to the detrimental effects of sugar.
You know nothing Pawian.

. It isn't a lie. Karp po żydowsku has become part of Polish cuisine,

Accepted by some as Polish cuisine.
But it is not Polish......
You can turn it around as much as you want, but this is Jewish cuisine.
I'm fine with that.
Even Polish Jewish cuisine.
But don't try to tell me that the pics Pawian posted were of traditional Polish food.

Life / Polish products in foreign shops [35]

When I make pickled cucumber jar preserves, I add more sugar than vinegar

Disgusting and very unhealthy.

: Remember my dear child, one drop of vinegar kills two drops of blood!

Sad old lies.....

. Vinegar is still delicious though. Chips are just not the same without plenty of it

Couldn't agree more!

gives you no right to say Pawian's traditions are bastardiEd

But it is basterdized.
This is not Polish cuisine.

Ryan po Zydowsku is well known in Poland and served in many houses

That may be so.But this is not Polish food.
Listen, I accept that the Jewish influence on Poland has been quite great, especially in cuisine.Although it mainly worked in one direction, Jews did not adopt much Polish cuisine.

Having said that, I think Jewish cuisine is superb.
I remember reading advice to Polish travellers many years go that said, if you can't find Polish food, eat Jewish, not only is it good food, but because of how careful Jews are in food preparation, it is safe.

But the point remains.
Pawian depicting these dishes as Polish is just a lie.

Nah! That just makes it sound Jewish or Russian.
