History / Communism, was it the best form of government Poland ever had? [68]

Damn, people... Jon357 and WB - it's funny reading your comments, considering that none of you lived even a day under that system.

yeah, it's kinda crazy to tell Poles that communism (actually socialism), was the best form of government, Poland ever had. Thousands of Poles died for a commie free Poland and now, they're telling you that they died for nothing and that whatever you guys ever believed and lived for, was a nonsense.

And thousands of Poles died in order for there to be a communist Poland; look closely and you can still see the monuments to them.

Harry (and whoever feels like Harry), if you believe that communism is a system for you then Poland is not the right place to be. In my years in Poland, I haven't met many Poles who liked it back then. Those monuments you're talking about, are most likely for Polish soldiers who fought along the Soviet Army during the WW2, who mostly didn't care who they fought for, as long as it helped Poland. OK, there might be a few monuments of some major commie criminals too but I don't believe, you'll find many people in nowadays Poland, who care about them, or maybe someone, simply forgot to tear 'em down.

There is not a single communist regime that has not descended into murder and repression

every electorate is wise to the fact that it is an unworkable system that can only be sustained by terrorising the workers it pretends to represent.

no capitalist country has ever had to build a wall to keep people in.

i have honestly never met one who would like to go back to the old system lock stock and barrel.

two thumbs up!!!

News / Is this the first clear and open signal that Poland makes preparations for war with Russia? [163]

Yes, there is no excuse for being a nazi.

starving to death millions of people (about 7), is pretty much the same as gassing millions of Jews in my books. Let's call them all Nazis then. I'm not looking for excuses, just being honest.

As far as our military engagement in Ukraine however, I've already stated above, I'm against it but only because I hate to see our guys die for another country. Other than that, I condemn the Russians for what they're about to do and this is all I want to say in this thread as it looks like it's gonna be one of those threads where we'll be repeating the same ole crap forever, without coming to any real conclusion, anyways not one that will satisfy all sides.

You guys enjoy yourself ;-)

USA, Canada / If America is so bad, why move here? [254]

I'm from Poland and EU always wins with USA when I think about place to live

I take it as an opinion of an expert, who lived in the US long enough to know, what she's talking about ;-)

I'm definitely more of an expert than you- an American male

excuse me? now that is very interesting. What are you trying to insinuate, Lenka?

btw. to make a statement like you did, you actually have to know both worlds (first hand) to be able to compare, otherwise, it's nothing else but an assumption.

well, how about that, I lived9 years in Germany and 4 years in Poland (visited many other European countries too). Don't you think, I know more about both worlds than you? (honest answer, no bull)

About what, where Polish ppl prefer to move or my thoughts and feelings?

Look, let's be honest, you guys prefer going to the UK and such because it's not easy for you to obtain visa to the US. I personally believe, you should be able to visit us anytime you feel like it. It's just a stupid regulation that needs to be changed ASAP. I mean, all of your neighbors can come and go as they wish, why not you.

Feedback / Editing time too short (5 minutes currently) [60]

PF posting time between posts declining (thats my observation)

correct observation

Does it have to be cuz of excessive mods?

not so sure about that. I believe, many people simply have better things to do than dealing with nonsense.

History / When will you Poles give back German land and the cities which you robbed? [557]

because at the same time there existed maps with Poland clearly depicted.

c'mon RUR,

The Polish state temporarily ceased to exist when the territories of the once-powerful Kingdom of Poland were divided among Prussia, Austria, and Russia in three partitions of 1772, 1793, and 1795

This thread is starting to stray from the title, can all posters keep on topic please.
