UK, Ireland / Ireland and Poland - ways of struggling for independence [43]

I mean: Polish uprisings were not successful, while Irish war of independence was.

Greater Poland Uprising alone was bigger than their whole war and definitely successful. Besides, their success most likely had much more to do with having colonies in Europe not being PC anymore. I'm sure British could easily take it down If they really wanted.

Life / Being a Jew in modern-day Poland; Israeli Jew who is of Polish descent [269]

The long of it is that only when Pope John Paul aka Karol Wojtyła publically "apologized" for more than a millennium of Catholic anti-Semitism

Religions does compete with one another, first Christians were persecuted by Jews, the same happened wherever Jews were majority and one could find quite a few example even these days... Anyway, the Church has been moving on from such things step by step, JP2's "apologies" were just one of many similar things... normally one would expect "we forgive you and apologize too" kind of reaction. But it's been, "look they admitted that ! Record it, print it, repeat it a million times, let's impose "quilt" upon them, feckin goys !!!!111". Pathetic.

Six-million

Dude, get a friggin life. You are cartoonish.

Neither were you, Grzegorz, which is what makes your comments so meaningless!!

No, It wasn't meaningless, because that's you who push forward xenophobic stereotypes. Catholic Church left behind such nonsense long time ago (these days with new Pope they are actually far too liberal) while one could easily find your "ultra orthodox rabbis" still calling Goys livestock, so perhaps clean your own dirty closet first before offending a billion of people.

Adventurous, empowered, educated, and multilingual younger Polish women usually prefer brown-skinned hubbies to procreate "future" brown-skinned babies to catapulty stodgy old-world Europe (finally!!!) into the 21st century:-)

LOL ! Dude, you're just another psycho, who think that forcing multi-cult upon whites is some sort of revenge for Holocaust.

a minority of wrong-thinking people in Poland or elsewhere who really blame the victim entirely for what happened instead of perhaps looking for the root causes of modern anti-Semitism aka THE CHURCH!!!

Nasty xenophobe, "the church" is centuries ahead of what your "ultra-orthodox" lunatics keep carry on. Dude, get a life, you weren't even born when these things were happening.

Life / West-East life in Poland? [45]

Anywhere where its tough to buy property at good prices Id say those are the areas doing well.

So where it's "tough to buy property at good prices" ? In Koszalin ? Gorzów ?

Life / West-East life in Poland? [45]

One of the reasons is that they were historically underdeveloped (what was there ever in German central Pomerania or southern East Prussia beyond forests and lakes ? not much) and commies have never really properly carried out "re-integration" of these lands, their major concepts were state owned farms and massive military presence, both gone in 90s. Another is that these are peripheral areas (vs major Polish economic/population centers) and peripheral areas never have it easy, be it peripheral countries in EU/EA, peripheral neighbourhoods in the cities etc. For instance cities often spend huge money to put some crap in the city center/old town, while people in remote areas (unless it's some place where local "VIPs" live) need to petition authorities to get a damn sidewalk built.

Life / West-East life in Poland? [45]

Anything close to or with good access to the German border tends to do well.

Sorry but you are using cheap stereotypes here. Szczecin has been 3rd tier city since many years. Actually most of ex-German areas are rather poor and often underpopulated. Go drive from Gdańsk to Szczecin and you will hardly see anything on the way and that's the area of a friggin Belgium.

Horizontally speaking, It's central Poland that is better developed, peripheral areas on both sides (+ a lot in the north) are falling behind.

Around bialystok?

If you divided Poland into less developed and more developed, these areas would be definitely in "less developed" part but there's no simple east/west division like some seem to think. Go more than 50 km away from Warsaw in any direction and it's "poor" there too.

barely won the presidency

Or "democrats" just faked it...

They don't need to send tanks in. It's enough to suspend the CAP payments to Polish farmers.

So how mighty "they" are going to do it ? Junkers and other fockers own that money about as much as you or I do.

Ternpoleleszczyszyn

I really doubt it is 1 word. This

leszczyszyn

is likely either the name of some village or last name of some dude... While this

Ternpole

might be indeed Tarnopol although Uks (as It is in Ukraine now) call it Ternopil.

History / Current Polish-Russian relations.. What do the Poles think? [60]

Russia actions are fully justified

I beg to differ, however it's clear that "the west" doesn't give a flying feck about Ukraine, they just use it as one of cards in their game with Russia. One day they will strike a deal with Putin and in exchange for something else, will throw Ukraine under the bus. Similarly, one can see how the west is using "Russian threat" to pressure Central Europe on many thing. Buy Patriot batteries, accept "refugees" & German controlled EU superstate etc. or else big evil Russia will come and eat you alive.

Seriously, according to you and Morawiecki Poland is in worse shape than Greece and should be hitting a _major_ recession as soon

Nonsense. There's an obvious different between public sector's mismanagement for the past 8 years and "Poland". Nice try on the side of "democrats", who clearly claim that any criticism of the mess they were doing is "dangerous for Polish economy" and at the same time keep screaming 24/7 to the foreign media and institutions about dictatorship, threat to democracy, growing fascism etc. Pathetic.

News / New European Council's report: "Poland oasis of racism, xenophobia and homophobia" ... [343]

british-sikh-punched-and-called-a-terrorist-by-polish-club-bouncer

Do you realize that each weekend at least hundreds of people are punched by a bouncer in Poland ? It's not a place where bouncers are nice. Most of such cases include some nightlife situations, a brown dude buy 2 drinks too much, start behaving like a big jollero, get a punch and then comes "Racists !!!!". I could bet a lot that the police part was made up.

Quick. Set up a council against murder because without it, police can't do anything...

providing coordination of governmental institutions

So what have they "coordinated" so far ? Most likely nothing.

Doesn't sound like some 'nonsense body' to me.

It's not even an institution but some annual gathering of dudes from several ministries, police etc. The whole thing pretty much didn't exist. I guess Tusk set it up to use it against then opposition, accuse them of "hate speech" and such but later dropped the whole idea hence it existed only on paper.

That was some nonsense "body" set-up by Tusk in 2013 that gathered... twice since then. Totally unnecessary, there are at least 20 other institutions to deal with such things.

Couldn't have come at a worst time

Polonophobes and other psychopaths will cream that "Poland is fascist" even If Kaczyński housed a dozen refugees in his own home.

News / Poland's post-election political scene [4080]

In Europe, most Poles (for example) simply assimilated and their descendants don't feel any connection whatsoever to where their ancestors originally came from.

It's the same really in the US, for Yanks it's just a kind of hobby to mention they are Polish/Italian/Irish or whatever. Poles in Western Europe/US/Canada etc. are assimilating well, just like If 100k Spaniards came to Poland this decade, 100/200 years from now 5/0.5k would claim to be a Spanish minority, vast majority would simply assimilate/inter-marry within several generations...

Apparently, you didn't notice how this issue came up here, go 2 pages back and check. InPl bigot claimed that Poles somehow have no right to criticize Muslim immigrants because "millions of them are immigrants themselves" and they "keep themselves to themselves", which of course isn't true as it's just a part of 1st generation that "keep themselves to themselves". While in case of Muslims, often 2nd or even 3rd generation is less assimilated than the 1st one.

We were talking about Polonia, and that most of its members assimilated over the past 150 years.

And that's an argument against/for what ?

Don't bother arguing with Polish neo-Nazis

Shut up, xenophobe.

and only a minority of them feel Polish or speak Polish. They are Germans, just like most Polonia members in France are French and not Poles.

So first your crowd complain that Poles somehow have no right to criticize non-European immigrants as millions of Poles left abroad and once there they "keep themselves to themselves" and now you say how well assimilated they are ? Ever heard about logic ?

News / Poland's post-election political scene [4080]

One Polish retiree taking part to the demo said to a Euronews journalist that she was demonstrating because she refuses to have fundamentalism in Poland

The "protests" are mainly about keeping Poland a colony run by foreign agents of influence, people taking part in it are either political operative & "NGOs" parasites that never had a real job or confused individuals like the old fool you mentioned. It's not that Germany or France want Poland to become a rich and influential country, why would they need competition ? It's far better to have a cheap labour reservoir and a market where they can dump their lower quality products even If nominally "France & Germany" are losing financially. That's because for Carrefour, VW and all, that's a great business and that's what matters.

What Pierre and Klaus think about it is irrelevant in these "great democracies", same like their opinion on EUR and most other things. It's pretty much the same pattern as with colonialism in previous centuries, just with better make-up this time. England had to finance huge navy and army to keep the Negroes down but East India Company etc. were ripping off the huge profits. This time Pierre and Klaus might be losing some of their tax money but they don't really go to Jasiu and Stasiu but to Carrefour, VW and all operating in Poland as most of "EU funds for Poland" for the past 8 years had been distributed to foreign companies hence the "protests" to bring it back. It's not Poland vs Germany or anything like that, it's "elites" vs people and the whole trick is that many of the little folks get convinced that they are a part of "elites", to make themselves feel better, and serve as useful idiots of real "elites" that are no more than top 0.1% of the society, not top 35% - that's not any "elite", that's lower middle class at best.

I don't see Germany providing such deals for Polish companies, so why are PiS handing them a large amount of cash and allowing them to crowd out any domestic Polish engine producer?

WTF ? You "democrats" are incredible, first you cry how PiS will chase out foreign investors and once it's been proven to be total nonsense, you come up with totally opposite thing. I guess If Kaczyński said homo "marriages" are a good idea, 3 seconds later you would show up yelling that he is destroying family values. Dude, just like they are good immigrants and not so good immigrants, there are good and not so good foreign investments. This one is surely better than 99% others including those cheap labour Amazon warehouses you were so exited about. Which "domestic Polish engine producer" ? If there was any, would they put it into the vehicles of Mercedes instead of their own ? Give me a break.

Tesco are making no more than 3.5% profit on their revenue in Poland

If you has a clue about business, you would know that these days profit rate is pretty much a matter of management's decision.

Feedback / Member warning system to prevent abuse / spam / off-topic posts [145]

Merged: Admin, get a clue how the warning system should be used...

Again, I got a warning for telling a xenophobic psychopath to shut up, while the psycho got nothing. So, I guess when I will say that for example, people from Liverpool suck dicks for 1 GBP, to some "expat" coming from there, and the "expat" in turn will come up with some "abuse", I can count on the expat getting a warning and I won't get one ? How can I tell if someone else has a warning?
