USA, Canada / Can you BE Polish without SPEAKING Polish in the US? [256]

You need to speak it or at least learn it. How can anyone call themselves Polish when they will not even put the effort into learning it? This is not exclusion, if you are too lazy to learn then drop it. Anyone who seriously considers themselves Polish will put in the effort and know the language. Language is essential to culture and each language has its own way of thinking, of looking at the world in a certain way. Language is perhaps the single most important connection especially to those living abroad.

If you remain ignorant of Polish traditions, history, current events, then I guess yes, in a way you would, otherwise no.

News / Poland now soft-pedalling ACTA signing [107]

There is no democracy and this is proof. ACTA is a danger to us all. The government is not for the people, its for corporations. We cannot allow this to pass. This is a obvious TOTALITARIAN move which will lead into many others.

Im not mad, shocked, or anything. I am just point something out and If you opened your eyes you would see what I am talking about. Sure this article on its own is not big deal. But it is following a trend.

I am not offended read what I wrote.Its all part of a pattern.

No I do not. You just pulled that out of your ass.


I dont mind that they chose Poland. But they consistently choose Poland in a bad light. That is the point and nothing more. One piece of a trend that you can clearly see if you follow it. You do not need to be a so called PolAm schizophrenic to see it.

Just because he did not explicitly say anything bad does not mean that he did not say anything bad. Dont write bullshit that words are exactly as they appear. This is no paranoia. All I have done is point out one small thing, which if not part of a long and widespread trend in western countries would not matter one single bit. America has for many decades portrayed Slavs in a racist and negative light, in movies, news, all sorts of media and that is a fact.

No you idiot. I dont know how long it takes you to read, but it shouldnt take long at all. Whether you believe it or not (if you dont then you do not pay attention) there is constant propaganda against Slavic countries, and "Eastern Europe" some more than others. Maybe this article was not intended as such, but its nevertheless a good example. I dont spend my time looking for whatever it is you think but apparently I am one of few here who has enough brains or not hard headed to know that words have many meanings.

What conspiracy? Its just groups in america. For examples you just need to pay attention to the media. For years Slavs have been slighted in american media. Since you need an example so badly, as you are media retarded here is one; Polish jokes propagated by movies and tv shows in the states in the 70s and 80s.

Are you some kind of a troll? Do I really need to explain to you that jokes can make people think negatively of others? Go away, we dont need anymore dense morons on this forum.

No more name calling.

We have another idiot.


Yes and yes. Learn to read.


Its the way and how often these messages are sent. Do I really need to explain it again, to you directly this time? It is the conditioning. People are conditioned to think and connect Poles with adjectives such as "idiot", and "failure". Read a little bit on psychology you uneducated moron.

This is mostly in American media. I cannot speak for UK media.

To Jason:

I have have explained to you what I mean, yet you dismiss it on no grounds. I do not give anyone a bad name, I just have no patience for trolls/morons. Either sensibly reply or bugger off.

Oh and were Poles also a threat? Thats not how it started, rather with immigration over 100 years ago. However the soviet union and the yugoslav wars helped with it. If I am making up bullshit why are there other who are aware and in tune with american media that agree with me.
