Seeing them reminds me of Wild Wild West when pioneers settled America. Those bearded guys must have felt like them.

History / Poles should apologise to Ukrainians first [395]

seems that you found

Yes, a good source for everyone to learn in a pill how Poles treated Ukraine and its people in the past.

Keeping Ukraine under the Polish boot was possible thanks to the trecherous collusion of Polish top elites like royals and aristocrats with Russia. I already mentioned it several times before that most Polish nobles didn`t care what happened to Poland as long as their property and land ownership remained intact. Russian troops provided such protection.

Interviewer: "Your Royal Majesty should not lament too much over the loss of the public good, since You managed to save individual goods," writes Jan Potocki to King Stanisław August right after the Third Partition of Poland. This theme runs through your entire book - Polish elites exploit the tsarist power to maintain their wealth.
Daniel Beauvois: This is one of the things that was not discussed before my research. The archives show that the landed gentry collaborated with the tsar on a huge scale. Without the help of the police, sometimes the Russian army, the Polish lords could not suppress the rebellions or maintain order on their estates. I think this was most visible during the revolution of 1905. At that time, the landed gentry sent a lot of various appeals and telegrams to Kiev, asking the authorities to send a police detachment or a Cossack sotnia to help them. They were surrounded by their peasants. They themselves said: "Our residences are islands of civilization in a sea of ​​barbarity." That's how they saw themselves: as people constantly under threat.

Life / Custom plates in Poland [103]

Exactly. I wonder if later on such police officers brag at home to their families they stopped a guy with funny plates which proved sort of prophetic.

Love / Moadana love - wedding song [23]

Hey, I have just taken the risk and opened your audio file. My first connotation is with krakowiak dance coz it sounds quite energetic. There are a few versions of Krakowiak songs with varying lyrics.

I am not musically talented so I can`t say for sure it is the same melody. Check these:

Of course. I have the full right to talk about my nation as I like as I am a native member of it.
While foreign azholes mustn`t talk negatively about Poles/Polesses coz they are far from perfect themselves. And whenever they do, I will bring up their own imperfections. No dogs! Ha!

And ordinary azholes, e.g, the ones who deem they have the right to criticize Poles/Polesses while themselves they are far from perfect if juxtaposed to dogs on no dogs rental signs. Ha!!!!

News / Russian agents plan sabotage acts in Poland??? [74]

Plant a few incendiary bombs on Russian planes and we will see how soon they give up that sabotage warfare.

How can it be done?? With the help of Ukrainian underground resistance in Russia. The only problem is money. No, not the money to reward Ukrainians for their heroism. The money they will need to bribe Russians who will themselves plant those bombs on their planes and in their factories/institutions.

I suppose the West and Poland won`t have a problem with supplying the necessary funds. I się skończy ruskie kozaczenie z sabotażem.

15 or 20 years ago some Russian journalists made an experiment - they travelled through Russia pretending they carry illegal stuff in their truck. They paid huge bribes to the police stopping them and were always allowed to go on. In this way they covered a distance of 1000 or more kilometres, I don`t remember now.

Food / What do non-Poles think about eating the following Polish foods? [1450]

But I can`t give up eating meat

I took a little time to ponder on this issue and I know why - I need fatty food to quell my hunger which reappears quite soon after a meal, even a fulfilling one. You can`t deny that pork in whatever cooking option or fried chicken/fish or lard sandwiches are full of calories which I crave.

Yes, I know, it is unhealthy so spare me your advice. But I counterbalance it with massive veg and fruit consumption.

Life / Mishmash facts about Poland and Poles [182]

1 hour time change takes place in Europe twice a year. It was implemented last Sunday. In result, today I woke up at 5 am instead of at 6 as usual. Also, our cats were stupefied.
That is why most Europeans, also in Poland, demand the time change is banned as useless and harmful. But our red tape takes a long time..........
