Life / Why is cheating at schools in Poland accepted?! [155]

cheating in Poland is part of the culture and it is not only limited to school.

The problem is that Polish people often see nothing wrong with it. Nor some of them see anything wrong with not telling the truth.

Please, don't be hypocritical and don't tell us about morals. In Poland, students certainly don't cheat more, and you have no real proof that cheating is more accepted here. Przyganiał kocioł garnkowi - we would say ;)

case of a typical Polish denial;)

If you are laid back, friendly and down to earth then most people (male and female) are likely to respond well.

Life / 80% of Polish people are boring or can't party, why? [179]

Why don't people try to understand different cultures instead?.

OP has forgotten to take that into consideration.

I travel because I am curious about the differences.

I honestly believe that some people should stay at home;).

It's not like I'm saying something wrong about your country.

no, but is like saying the every American is stupid, which is not true. You make generalizations based on your personal experience.

I personally had some really good parties in Poland.

And well, if you don't agree... it only means you belong to the 20% :)

I never said I don't agree. And no, it doesn't mean I belong to the 20 %. How did you come to that conclusion?

SOme ex-pats are known for complaining about such things over and over again, because they are having problems with dealing with cultural differences. For some reason they neglect to provide the balance in a from of what keeps them in Poland, therefore I think that freebird has made a generalization. I have met many foreigners in Poland and some adjust well, but some don't. One of the reason for the failed adjustment is the need to compare Poland to the country they came from. One cannot, because all countries are different and if one wants to live in Poland, there will do better if they take it for what it is, not for what they want Poland to be.

Food / BREAD IN POLAND IS DETERIORATING [90]

And those greedmasters are going to use every trick in the book to trim costs and increase profits!!!

good point but somebody has sold those companies to them, so they were greedy as well.

When it comes to quality of bread in Poland in varies and if the German bread is cheaper, Poles will buy is, since it is NOT a well off society yet.

News / Are Polish People Being Discriminated Against? Problems getting a US visa. [258]

America hasn't produced Stalin's, Hitlers, Ceasucus, Francos, Thatchers, Bonapartes, Robespierres.. on and on.

it does not make it perfect at all. I think there are good things about Europe and the US and they might not overlap at all.

You cannot just speak in general, since eg. US is better for new ideas/advancement while Europe is more conservative when it comes to that. Europe is more socialist then the US. US does not stay away from war conflicts, but participates in them with the propaganda machine manipulating their citizens that they are doing the right thing. US is a war monger.

Europe has had ethnic conflicts for a long time, US deals with ethnic conflict by implementing racism within their own country and outside of it, provided they have some interest in it. There is no better propaganda machine then the one in the US;)

Those are just a few things I wanted to mention.
There future division of power is shifting and China comes to mind, but I guess the Yanks are already there, aren't they, claiming that Chinese government is abusing human rights towards its citizens, while doing and building business with China.

I am looking forward to you comment. Just make it to the point:)

This has nothing to do with the point I made.. nothing whatsoever.

maybe you have a problem with connecting the dots. I was not rumbling. I am having my coffee and reading your posts. You dragged me into this discussion since you are obviously craving some confrontation, instead of exchange of ideas and different opinions. I can spare some time, but I will not put my effort in trying to convince somebody who cannot see how his own country is as aggressive as Europe.

Chinese are another nation that kills it's own people.. like the Europeans.

They do, but US is not an angel either, they they just don't kill their own people (yet). What about the crime rates in the US? For such a great and peaceful country you sure have some major problems with that.

My point is the US does not produce dictators like Europe does.

not yet. You are all about invading other countries, either with the army (in the name of democracy, which makes me laugh every time I hear it), to economic invasion (IMF, WOrld Banks and other organizations just to name a few).

It doesn't prey on itself.

no, it does not, but it prey on others. See above.

Yes there's racism but no holocaust, mass executions etc.

yes, there were no mass executions in Vietnam. I must have been imagining it.

The US would never carry out a Katyn, etc.

US killed almost all the Native people my dear. Or did you erase that from you mind and I cannot see how this is relevant to out discussion. Russians killed Poles in Katyn and those were two different nationalities. Europe is not ONE country, although I am suspecting that you are going in that direction with your thinking.

Bush was an idiot but he was not a dictator.

Some might have a different opinion.

He didn't limit the press etc.

I am sure he did, as any other politician would in the US. DO you know anything about the mass media at all? I f you are interested I will give you heads up:)

and the "STUPID" US wil have to pull them apart and separate them like the children they are.

now you are being stupid and patronizing. The last time US pulled Europe apart they also made a bunch of money.

It's typically black on black.

Only black on black?

Look at the murder rate in Africa.

first of, Africa has nothing to do with that and if you are trying to suggest that black people are more aggressive or violent on average, then you know little about Africa.

You are the professed Dr. of American studies over here.

I have never said that, but thank you:)

.The US does not typically prey on it's own people the European does.

right now or in the past because you lost me here.

This is an inferior mindset.

Inferior to whom.

To actually kill your own populace.

I think I commented on that already and I am not sure what you are referring to.
scrappleton
you are talking about the past and there is no way that you know that it will happen again. What are you? A fortune teller?

and the "STUPID" US wil have to pull them apart and separate them like the children they are.

US does not do it for free. Dig deeper.
Have you been to Europe Scrappy?
Back on topic.

There should be balance in mutual international relations. If USA demands
visas from Polish citizens, we should also introduce visa system for Americans.

it does not work that way Torq and you know that. Poland is not a partner with the US. Lets face the truth here. I don't understand why some people are so delusional about Poland's position in the world.

LOL.. If the US leaves you to your own devices you will murder each other again. You always do it. 500 million fools cramped in that little continent can't help it. It's hilarious actually. The EU will fail because France and Germany will get tired of paying the lionshare of it and that will probably tip off another war.

you sure connect the dots in a wrong way, however I enjoy you deep analysis of Europe.

Sure limey

scrappleton
I am not a limey. You probably have some British roots, being an American and all that.

The EU will fail because France and Germany will get tired of paying the lionshare of it and that will probably tip off another war.

so I ma guessing you will not be coming to save the Europe again? Bless.

Surely they're just misunderstood or better yet the Yankee CIA is behind it.

I have never said that but if you say so, that must be true:)

Who's fault would that be?

nobody's fault.

Thanks for the markets.

you are welcome, although it must have come at the price. What is it now? You have no problems on your own that you suddenly worry about Europe?

You don't like it doesn't mean it's not true.

I never said I did, didn't I? Please, stop putting words in m mouth.

You can bring up things from the 1800's all you want.

I did and you did bring things up from 60 years ago, so what is your point. US is still invading and using other countries as we speak. What are you going to say about IMF and the World Bank my dear scrappy. What are you going to say about sterilization of poor and coloured women in the 60s and 70s? I would like your opinion on that.

not for long. nice that you admit it though.

it is not about admitting or not. US made tons of money on WW1 and WW2, I am sure you know that.

Yes: A.) Overrated B.) Expensive C.) Rude people. D.) 5 star hotel there is like one of our 3 stars. You even have to share the toilet. What a joke. You can have it.

that is ALL you can say? Your obsession with toilets probably stopped you from sightseeing. Oh, well.

Well, enlighten me European. I haven't oversimplified too much. Europe is more trouble than it's worth for us. Just like Israel. Screw it. You know you hate our guts. You say it all the time. I would sever ties with you if I could and deal exclusively with the Asians / N. S. Americans.

I am not going to enlighten you because you can do that yourself. I am not really sure what the problem is but all you say: Europe is not worth the trouble. Yet, the foreign politics of the US has stationed your basis around the world (per your claim) and now Europe has to go down on its knees and be thankful for that.

The truth is that the US, nor anybody else does anything for free, so shut it already and go to read some books. Why should I make it easy for you to understand if you don't have the capacity anyways. Sheesh.............I have better things to do then talking to the wall.

SO WHAT ABOUT THE IMF AND THE WORLD BANK POLITICS. Please comment on that. Or do you have to look it up first?

I am done here.
