News / Polish-Russian war? Drones entering Polish airspace. [219]

What to do if someone is an introverted philanthropic type?

Here introvert trumps philanthrop.... the office of US president can only be effectively filled by an extrovert.

And it is the same in all Europe's democracies

I've been following the story of non-western migration to Europe since before 2010... it's been a rolling disaster everywhere it's been established.

someone needs to deal with it

Exactly. But a lot of people think it's being dealt with when it isn't.

Poland is not affected yet partly because of the weak social benefit system and the fact that those who arrive are mostly here to work.

But how long will that be the case?

What are the values you care about so much ?

Civil society (quick over-simplified definition: "the elements such as freedom of speech, an independent judiciary, etc, that make up a democratic society"

Equality between the sexes

Equality before the law

Separation of church and state

Freedom of Expression

Secular education

Low crime and effective police

The migrants flooding into Europe at present have major gaps in some or most of those areas... and do not respect those values and want to impose their own

Hierarchical relations betwen the sexes (and minimal participation of women in public life), rights by religion, legal norms by religion, restrictions on free expression (blasphemy laws) and the crime rate of migrants are off the charts compared to the indigenous peoples of Europe.

You're okay with Rotherham?

Non-western migrants in Europe commit rape at 580 % the rate of the original populations?

You're okay with that?

Just because it hasn't affected you yet doesn't mean it won't....

News / Polish-Russian war? Drones entering Polish airspace. [219]

Trump ended 8 wars

If that ends up being true then that goes to the next period since the last nomination period ended in January.

I agree that awarding Obama was about the stupidest award I've ever heard of... clearly they were trying to say 'please don't invade any countries!' but Obama was a terrible president because he's an introverted misanthrope and the job calls for an extroverted philanthropic type with tough spine.

News / Was Charlie Kirk popular in Poland? [305]

What's hateful about exposing the truth?

Exactly! I watched a video that was supposedly "divisive" things that Kirk said and... they were actually very reasonably. I might quibble with the wording but nothing was wrong or weird of 'hateful' about the basic message.

People are reacting to an imagined version of him and not the real man.

Yes, feed and clothe him before putting him on a plane back to his own country. I agree.

the foreign born population are more likely to be working and paying taxes than the non-foreign born population

Is that controlled for continent of origin?

Poland is a Catholic country

Well I'm not a catholic (or christian) so I don't feel any moral obligation to facilitate him becoming an economic and social burden on Poland or some other country.

For every migrant you help.... that just ends up encouraging two more to take their place...

How is that sustainable? I keep asking migration supporters about sustainability and I've yet to get anything resembling an answer....

Or a productive worker.

Odds are not in his favor.... even if that's what he wants to be most arivals in Europe aren't really qualified for.... anything..... half of Germany's welfare payments go to non-citizens.... how is that sustainable? By bringing in even more?

If we started to hold everyone responsible for poor judgement

What about just cases where that's feasible?

You'd see him starve?

I'd most like to see him fed in custody and sent back to his own country. He's far more likely to have a better life there than in Europe as a welfare leech....

Like half the world, not that "guilty" is a suitable word.

Should he be held responsible for his poor judgement or are you a believer in the White Man's Burden?

Hopefully he will have found some support. The church is quite good at helping those in need

Why 'hopefully'? Those who make it to the Belarussian border were not hard up or poor in their own country. It costs a lot for Belarus to let them in....

Guilty of poor judgement in going to Europe in the first place and his intentions toward the country he hopes to arrive in (probably Germany) are almost certainly not to contribute but to take resources that should be going to German taxpayers....

The third world produces too much dysfunction for Europe to cure and the sooner the flow of rent seekers is stopped the better.

News / Poland's aid to Ukraine if Russia invades - part 25 [873]

For idiots who still think that Hunter Biden was working for Ukraine (and that's part of the reason they support the narco-state russia).... JP Lindsley, the best foreign journalist in Ukraine lays it all out

Hunter was hired in moscow, not Kyiv

Burisma was a russian front organization with the goal of maintaining russian control over the country

Biden tried to cover that up (and why so much US help was slow-walked or promised and never delivered during the Biden administration)

News / European News and Poland Thread - part 4 [917]

Belgium has always had chaotic politics.

How many thwarted conspiracies to kill the PM on religious grounds before?

But enough of that.... hee's another sickening story for the left to dismiss!

Far left German mayor who adopted two children from Africa (why?*) tortured by them almost to death.... the ringleader seems to be the daughter, now 17 who police won't arrest.

The son tried to help cover up the crime (is he the one who said she was attacked by a group of men?)

Apparently things had been going wrong at home for months... she'd been attacked by the daughter before (and earlier had been photographed with her arm in a cast).

the natural question that arises is..... how on earth did she expect to run a town when her own home was a den of violence and abuse?e

x.com/ainyrockstar/status/1975921655152075216

*some suggestion that it was a diversity stunt to showcase her tolerance (if that was the case.... then karma is a b1tch on wheels) also unconfirmed reports of her attempting to trans one or more of the children.... (in which case my sympathy for them increases)

Lots of speculation and none of it leads to a good place (and neither does studious silence in the hope that the story will go away)

Off-Topic / Habemus Papam / The New Pope [103]

The Church is no left-wing in principle.

The church is leftwing in terms of some policies (redistribution of wealth, helping the poor etc) and rightwing in others (sanctity of marriage, anti-abortion etc).

He said totally different thing.

He said: Границы России нигде не заканчиваются. (Granicy rossii nigde ne zakančivajutsâ - transliteration my own).

"The borders of russia do not end anywhere."

How is this different from saying russia has no borders?

would be better for the Europeans to get away from our borders?

Where are those borders? Your repulsive little dwarf tsar says russia has no borders....

russian nationalists who talked about borders ended up falling out of windows.

That's one reason Poland dragged NATO into the country.

If russia actually stayed within its borders and wasn't invading its neighbors all the time then people wouldn't want a safeguard against you.

That's definitely not how either Bobko

They wouldn't use those words, but that would be the idea... that russia did everything it wanted/needed to and it was a great victory.

Bobko supports continuing the war even though he said he was 'appalled' that it began....

russians can't have firmly held public opinions.... they repeat what they're told to repeat... and ultimately believe what they're told to believe. When has it ever been different?

This is russia... they can withdraw to 2013 borders, call it a great victory and dare anybody to disagree (maybe throw a few who do disagree from windows to drive the point home) and within 2 weeks bobko and velund would be talking about russia stronk! russia stronk! they beat the hohols so bad! yay russia!!!!
