It’s you that’s backward thinking that vain belief that you can still reshape the world to your will, your empire is crumbling around you, you just don’t see it yet. Soon it will be a relic of a distant past while Serbs will rise again. LOL


Your vain attempt to link DNA to patriotism is pathetic, history has proven time and time again that some of the greatest patriots no matter what land they fought for came from mixed ethnicities; the love for their country or adapted country or whatever the case might be came from the family they grew up in. It is they who instilled in them the virtues and ideals they hold dear and love of the land they fought for, DNA had nothing to do with it.

What’s up with the neo-Nazi crap? Neo-Nazis are people like you who go to someone else’s land trying to reshape their society according to your vision of what it should look like, in some vain belief that you are somehow better than the natives, they are just not capable to run their own house. That’s the belief in Untermensch in its purest form to which you subscribe. In the last two decades proved it through your deeds, Yugoslavia, Iraq, Afghanistan etc. Lebensraum is another example of the ideology you obey without question and cheer on, only these days it’s more about the resources of that land rather than the land itself, damn savages are just not capable of putting it to good use, let’s send the army and our corporate giants will know what to do with it.

Life / Are foreigners welcome in Poland? [305]


So who’s doing all that brainwashing? Besides what does that make you? Since you don’t even like your own kind. Nothing wrong with having international friends that’s not what I’m referring to. Notice the use of “their”


. Right off the bet you want to distance yourself from that alleged racism exhibited by all Poles and you somehow better than that. Being born there yourself according to your own statement you must have been immune to that alleged brainwashing since it obviously did not work on you or at least that's what you think. Go fish.

Reread your post, it’s full of bias and prejudice, in fact it represents everything that you supposedly reject and fight against. That anger you harbor within you towards all Poles and all things Polish made you a vindictive person, one seeking revenge and satisfaction for being rejected by handful of your peers. You come on this forum simply to badmouth others with blank accusation of racism by all, as if. Yes it’s very sad not to have an open mind, a few are not all and your post just proved that to me. You’ve been rejected for who you are, a vindictive, obnoxious spoiled little princess that can’t take criticism from your own peers, no point to deceive yourself anymore. Of course your parents’ won’t tell you that to your face, even though it’s their job, they simply spoiled you but you can always count on a Good Samaritan on the net like me to point out the errors of your way and hopefully knock some sense into you.

After three years of marriage, wife is still nagging her husband as to how many women he slept with: - Come on, don’t be like that - wife enquires - tell me, how many ... - But honey - replies the husband - if you found out how many, you would have long since divorced me ... And so it went ... Until one day the wife said: - Okay, let me put it to you this way, you’ll tell me how many women you slept with and I promise I won’t be offended and we can put this behind us ... Husband looked at his wife suspiciously and said: - You swear that this will not offend you? - I swear! - Replied his wife. You swear you'll never bring this up again? - I swear! His wife promises - now, count! After giving it some thought the husband begins to count: - One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, you, nine, ten .......

IT student just met a new girl, gorges looking but epileptic. Going all out for the object of his desires he spared no expense, flowers to greet her, dinner by the candlelight in a nice romantic restaurant, night out on the town the works, at the end of the evening he gathers enough courage to invite her to his room. One thing leads to another, they started to make passionate love at that point she experiances one of her episodes of epileptic seizure. Panicky, disoriented and confused, IT student calls the emergency: - Come quickly. My girlfriends’ orgasm just crashed!

Kowalski's daughter went on a brief visit to London.
- Dear family it’s great - she wrote - so many stores - in each something different, one can spend days doing shopping. kiss ... Your Ola

A week had passed, she writes:
- Beloved, it’s wonderful here, especially the pubs – it would be a sin not to visit one of them in the evening. kiss... Your Ola.

Another two weeks goes by.
- Dearest, sensational. Health clubs, massage salons, plastic surgery clinics offering their services for a ridiculously low price!. I’m tempted to stop by one of them one day - perhaps a better nose? (Ha ha ha) Just out of curiosity, of course, I'll see. Your Ola.

Three weeks later.
- Beloved, paradise; one does not want to leave. Oh, by the way: the plastic surgery I told you about in my previous correspondence - cool thing, the procedure has gone splendidly. Your Alexander.

During his tour of the States, Khrushchev visits the exemplary middle school. The classroom they visit happens to be a religion lesson. Not intimidated by this Khrushchev asks the students: Who were Adam and Eve? To which students reply in loud chorus - Russians! Happy with the answer he just got Khrushchev confidence grows so he continues to proceed and asks the children: Why? – You see Mister Khrushchev not only they were barefoot and naked but they were stealing apples as well.

The priest gives the last rites to a dying man and calls upon him: - Renounce Satan! – No! - says the dying man. The priest repeats his statement: Renounce the devil and his work! – Once again he hears a firm No! by the dying man. Curious as to why a dying man would not renounce the devil the priest asks: Why not my son? Oh FFS, I just don’t want to **** off anyone before I know where I’m going.

History / What proportion of the Polish population collaborated with the Nazis? [125]


Which would make them Jewish, don’t you think? What a coincident, that’s exactly the number of Jews living in pre-war Poland. So how many Jews were working for SD as informers who informed Germans on who was a real Jew. How many Jewish Kapos etc.?


You are way off the mark on that number, the last figures I’ve read there were 90,000 serving in Wehrmacht since they were classified as volksdeutsche because of their mixed heritage. Most of them Silesians and Kaschubs whose classification as a 3rd category on volksliste give them the real choice of either a concentration camp for their entire family or joining the Wehrmacht. There were no Polish volunteers and those that were drafted served in Wehrmacht unlike the Jewish volunteers who freely served in SS. The Karaites (or whatever they were called) for example, a Jewish sect whose members were even allowed to freely practice their religion while serving in the ranks of SS, so much for the myth of Jewish prosecution by the Nazis. The driver of Adolf Eichmann Oberscharführer Polanski was of Jewish origin, so don’t confuse him for a Pole because of his surname. French Jews served in the 33rd Waffen-SS Grenadier Division Charlemagne as volunteers, the Wallonie legion had some Jews serving there too. I remember reading a case about a Hungarian Waffen-SS member who only admitted to be a Jew when he was caught by Americans and faced the execution. Admitting of being a Jew saved his sorry ass by the way. God only knows how many Jews served in regular units and as volunteers it makes them that much more of a collaborators, don’t you think?

Tarnopol is not some little village outside Krakow, in fact it’s a town in today’s Ukraine. Before WWII it was a far south eastern Voivodship in Poland. Given all that I would go with Tynoshenko, better yet Tymoszenko (Тимошенко) as in Yulia Volodymyrivna Tymoshenko a former Prime Minister of Ukraine.

Language / Is the term 'Polak' derogatory?? [254]


I could care less what you choose to call yourself, I know better. Personally I don’t give a damn if you wear a kilt or a skull cap. Get off that "anti-Semite" bandwagon, that’s your tin-foil hat you like to talk about and wear, like everyone out there is to get a Jew, a bit paranoid, don’t you think? Be a semi descent person and I’ll treat you accordingly and do stop speaking in my name, whatever you wear one thing’s for sure you’re not one of Us.

Language / Is the term 'Polak' derogatory?? [254]


Actually it’s starting to get annoying as hell, on one hand you try to downplay the Anti-Polish Jewish propaganda cause it suits your agenda, let’s face it mostly it’s the Jews who do that, on the other hand calling everyone an Anti-Semite for pointing out what’s an undeniable Jewish hatred, sweeping it aside as tin-foil hat crap don’t work on most Poles either once they got the taste of what the real intention hiding behind that word is, those actually who did traveled to US are not blind.

Language / Is this true about Polish pronunciation of English (that some words sound identical?) [34]


There’s a difference between American and British pronunciation, although British make it sound closer to Polish "a" I can still hear the difference. Perhaps some of the British accents make it indistinguishable to the Polish ear, I'm not that familiar with British accents simply didn't have enough contact with you but from observation Americans pronounce it as Polish "e" that sure as hell can't be confused with Polish "a" sound so I guess it all depends. Claim technicality, it's a draw. Tell her you meant American English. Never concede defeat.

UK, Ireland / Why Poles will never belong in England [283]


Judging by the numerous comments you made on this forum over time I certainly get that impression.

UK, Ireland / Why Poles will never belong in England [283]


That’s where we differ in our respective positions; it’s the first step to one world government. First you have to eradicate self-awareness of an individual, national identity is the first target on their list to be eliminated altogether, yet looking at each government no matter what country they govern they all have their faults, their decision are simply not in the best interest of the people they happen to represent. It’s all about exercising the power over them. For some that’s not enough, they want that power over all but how that can be when the decisions they make are not for the advancement of the mankind but quite frankly for the benefit of the few privileged ones. If you can’t get your own house in order and every decision you make is to advance your own career you do it for the wrong reasons and you haven’t graduated to the next level, no matter how noble the idea seems to be. For me the people who buy into that Global movement are simply confused as to what the ultimate goal of those that initiated it is.

UK, Ireland / Why Poles will never belong in England [283]


As with everything else, moderation is the key and most people live up to that.


As if the national pride should be scuffed upon and as if it’s the greatest evil out there.


At that point, he himself does not define himself as Polish and no one any wiser.

UK, Ireland / Why Poles will never belong in England [283]


Exactly, variety a spice of life, that’s the first lesson a globetrotter should learn. Nothing wrong with taking pride in your roots or even with expressing one’s national pride once in a while as long as it’s not taken into extremes. The Globalists should concentrate more on teaching tolerance to push their agenda instead of taking away the one thing that defines each and every one of us. I for one am glad that family ties are stronger than any ideology.


Nothing wrong with that either, if the adapted homeland suits you.


Ah! National pride at last, there’s hope for you still old chap.

You’re in Sudan now, are you seeking Sudanese passport? Besides if you’re such a Globalist who do you root for during the international match? If not for English the life of the Globalist is a sad life indeed.


Let’s do just that before making a rash statement. Even if it turns out the way you think Poles have this uncanny ability to adapt yet still hold on to their roots no matter where they are; Saturday school, dance clubs, youth organizations, native language media radio tv etc. Contrary to your belief national pride is not so bad after all.

UK, Ireland / Why Poles will never belong in England [283]


To the Globalist, perhaps but most take pride of who they are.


It’s a life changing decision only if you uproot, you don’t see many Poles seeking British passport with the exception of those who have good career or got married and stated family life there but vest majority still hold on to that strictly economic aspect, make money and come back.

UK, Ireland / Why Poles will never belong in England [283]


The most it ever does is that it broadens our horizon.


No most emigrate for economic reasons for a short term; at least that’s their plan in the beginning. You’re confusing Poles with Brits who have moved for entirely different reasons be it a love of their life or business.

UK, Ireland / Why Poles will never belong in England [283]

BS Wroclaw. Traveling will never change what or who you are, if anything it might even strengthen your national feeling, nostalgia you see. Same is true for Brits living in Poland and everyone else that ever experienced a life of immigrant, you out of all people should know better. As long as that national feeling is not taken to extremes we can all enjoy the good life retaining our national pride and cultivating the culture of our ancestors no matter where we are at the moment. It’s not like you can change your nationality at a whim even if you happen to hold the passport of your adapted homeland.
