USA, Canada / Do many Polish people in America hate Americans? [592]

they see us as rich

I don't.

but Americans who go to Poland don't call them stupid.

Oh,that's because Americans in America call us stupid.

I think it the Poles in the US can be divided into two groups. The ones here legally, or the Polish-Americans, and all the rest.

You do?I am here legally but I am not Polish American (and I have no intention to become one).

News / Amber Gold and other Poland's suspicious institutions [139]

He is not even yet in jail and probably has a number of "secrets" involving some official names ,people at the highest level of the State or the Polish Courts who helped him and greatly financially benefited from the scam.

You still don't get it,this is exactly why he may "commit suicide".Lately "suicides" are common in PL.Marcin P. was a small scale scammer but tell me where did he get the money (a lot of money) to start Amber Gold?

USA, Canada / American man with a Polish wife. Will children be dual citizens? [20]

there is no INS its called ICE now ICE=immigration and customs service,...just for new members who are uninformed still.

Wrong.INS is now USCIS(=United States Citizenship and Immigration Services).ICE=Immigration and Customs ENFORCEMENT.

News / Amber Gold and other Poland's suspicious institutions [139]

The 28 years old founder if found guilty Marcin P must rejoice and think that crime really pays for he faces 5 years in jail and a very small fine compared to what he has probably managed to hide offshore since 2009

He?Are you 7 y/o or what?Marcin P. was only a słup and I wouldn't be surprised if he "commit a suicide" some time soon.

I really hope that the Poles who form one of the most courageous and resilient people on earth will get down on the streets and furiously wipe out all this corruption.

I do too but realistically,it's not happening.It would take a civil war and the whole system change to wipe out all the corruption but Polish society has been pacified meaning that the most rebelious ones were encouraged to leave and now we have to wait for the system to go bankrupt.It is imminent but it will take some time.

Feedback / Why are there so many on here, who do not like Poland [150]

I wonder - would that explanation work for an antisemitism?

No.Polish antisemitism has everything to do with Polish people being backward and ignorant/primitive.It has nothing,I repeat nothing to do with 3.5 million not assimilated Jews living in II RP.No connection whatsoever.

Language / "Taka prawda" - What does this Polish phrase mean? [19]

"Techno pravda"

Never heard anything like that and I am Polish so you couldn't hear it from medias.

"Tak noh pravda" which I would guess means Yes, quite true".

Doubt it.it sounds weird to agree 3 times in 3 words sentence.Polish person would say "Tak, to prawda","No,prawda"'or simply "prawda".

Phonetically, it is something like: "Tak noh pravda"

I guess you mean "Taka prawda".

I'm fairly sure there's an N in it,

Since you insist on "N" then it must be "Gówno prawda" what means "this is not true" but you don't want to speak this kind of language.

History / Warsaw Rising 1944 - National Disaster or Triumph of Spirit ? [395]

Were the Russians waiting on purpose or was this just accident?

Do you think they didn't allow US and British planes with supplies for Warsaw to use their airfields by accident?

It surely was a suicide plan but so was the uprising in 1944 (I already explained it)

No you didn't.Anyway,I will repeat,in April/May 1943 the Germans were preparing offensive in the Ukraine and the outcome of war wasn't decided yet while in Jun/July 1944 the Germans were in full scale retreat.Kind of difference I would say.

most of them in Warsaw were Poles (Polish citizens anyway)

Polish citizens,ok but it doesn't mean Poles.

History / Warsaw Rising 1944 - National Disaster or Triumph of Spirit ? [395]

Common sense, just compare both political systems, Poland before WWII and the SU.

And?What does it have to do with anything?Was Great Britain or US a commie country in 1941-1945?They were not acording to my knowledge yet they were allied with SU.

so if you did it together in 1943,

Dude in april/may 1943 Soviet army was deep in the Ukraine and battle of Kursk hasn't even started yet.Together or not it would be a suicide,plain and simple.

They were also Poles (Polish Jews).

Some were some were not.That's off topic anyway.

of course I know but it was clear, they wouldn't help you.

How was it clear?I am telling you Soviet planes were dropping leaflets and Soviet radio was calling Warsaw people to rise so how was it clear?Post any western intelligence report saying that Soviets will stop their offensive.Just one.

History / Warsaw Rising 1944 - National Disaster or Triumph of Spirit ? [395]

What was the point of the Warsaw Uprising in 1944? (same point)

The point was to free Warsaw.

the chance to succeed was exactly the same in both cases

You are really ignorant.Do you know where was Soviet army in April/May 1943?You don't?I thought so.Check and come back.In 1944 Soviet army was on the other bank of Vistula and nobody knew they are going to stop and let Germans massacre uprising.Before it even started Soviet planes were dropping leaflets calling Warsaw people to rise up and saying that they are coming to help.Even western allies were surprised when Soviets stopped offensive and did not want to allow US and British planes with supplies for Warsaw to use their airfields.And you are saying that "the chance to succeed was exactly the same in both cases"?Get some education dude.

They knew that they can't count on any help from the Soviets.

They knew?How did they know it?

The last thing Stalin wanted, was Poland from before the WWII.

We know it now but it wasn't so clear in 1944.

History / Warsaw Rising 1944 - National Disaster or Triumph of Spirit ? [395]

Why is it dumb?

Because what would be the point?

because both Uprisings didn't make any sense since it was clear that there was no realistic chance for success.

From today's perspective you are right,but we have knowledge those in 1944 did not have.Unlike Warsaw uprising 1943 Ghetto uprising was just a gesture of despair without any,zero,null,nada chance to succed.

since it was clear that there was no realistic chance for success?

How WAS it clear in 1944?

Life / Poland needs more immigrants and their children - which nationalities are the best? [518]

Except Godson has done far more for Polish people than you ever will.

Fine.Maybe it's time for him to go back where he came from and do something for Nigerians.

Let's see...

See what?I don't care about Belfast,so what's your point exactly?

How about changing the repertoir? :):):):) This old song of yours has become a little boring....

Just admit you are a member and I will leave you alone.

Life / Poland needs more immigrants and their children - which nationalities are the best? [518]

But what acts of legislation have either of them authored that significantly improved the quality of life for all Poles?

What are you talking about?This is not how it works in this country.They are there (not only Godson and the other one but all of them) to improve their's (in a broad sense) quality of life and steal as much as they can from Polish people .

The other guy has been in Poland for over 30 years, has children, speaks Polish fluenty and worked at the Economics University in Poznan. All in all, a far better Pole

Say what?He's not even Polish so how can he be better or worse Pole?I don't understand how it is possible that someone not born here can be a lawmaker.This got to change.

These aliens give Poles a good example - they have 3, 4 children, while average Polish couple has 1.

Because Polish couple can't afford more children partly thanks to Godson and this other spook.What a FUBAR country Poland has become,murzyny come here and become lawmakers and Polaks work their sorry a s s e s off in Biedronka for 1000 zlotych.WTF?

your post was a tad racist and had a bad tone about it.

Yeah it had a bad tone because it pisses me ******* off,dude.

UK, Ireland / 'Drajwować karę' in the UK? [19]

Yeah,ok but "drajwowac","kara" or "gieradz"(!) is not English.In fact I don't even know what it is.Maybe I am old school but I can't imagine myself talking like that.

This only proves how crooked this whole "elections" thing is.Either that or Polish people are really dumb indeed.I mean what this 2 spooks do in Sejm?Do Polish people really want African fugees to be lawmakers in Poland?I feel like puking when think about ********* Polish retards gave 2 good jobs to aliens from 3rd world, WTF is going on in this country???

UK, Ireland / 'Drajwować karę' in the UK? [19]

Due to poor command of English

My understanding is that they talk/talked like this amongst them then why they can't simply speak Polish?Makes no sense to me.

UK, Ireland / 'Drajwować karę' in the UK? [19]

Someone of the old Polonia of my great grandparents generation might have said: Ona zostawiła karę w gieradzi.
The use of informal hybrid speech differed amongst indivdual speakers: radical Polglishers would actually say: hauza, stryta, bejzment, flor (podłoga), jarda (yard), bojsy as in 'Bojsy się fajtują na sajdłoku.'

I don't understand,why would anybody talk like this?"kare w gieradzi"?Now,that's beyond ridiculous.

UK, Ireland / 'Drajwować karę' in the UK? [19]

kara - car
trok or trak -truck
sztor - store
sajdłok - sidewalk
stryta - street
strytkara - streetcar (tram)
buczernia - butcher's
gieradzia - garage
giejta - gate
druksztor - drugstore
śtepsy - steps plus pelnty of verbs:
pejntować, klinować (clean), drajwować, gredżuejtować (graduate),

BIZARRE!gieradzia?Excuse me,but what are you trying to say?

Law / Clocking cars and importation to Poland [47]

Seems the Government in Poland are intent on screwing the people there every which way.

This is true.

Poland as an EU state charges duty on something that is brought in from another EU state

This is not true.

Also the fact that they are charge for an inspection knowing that the cars from other states are built to the same specification.

What specification has to do with inspection?I don't really see where you coming from.Even in the US which is one country when I am moving from lets say Maryland to Delaware I have to get my car inspected in Delaware even though my car was already inspected and road legal in Maryland.

I can understand your frustration and I suppose I am in for a lot of that when I move there in December.. to be honest just after reading your post I am pretty pissed off already.

He just makes it sound like it's a big problem but in reality it is not that bad.
