Agnieszka holland compares life in Poland to 'sniffing farts': [97]
In interviews given by her still you can encounter the negative generalizations about the Poles as a nation that is supposedly immature , anti-Semitic and xenophobic , etc .
Well...she does have a point. Compared to western Europe, Poland is rather anti-Semitic, xenophobic, and just...weird. It's like it culturally doesn't belong in the EU.
Always amusing to see a self-declared Pole complaining about people saying that some Poles are immature , anti-Semitic and xenophobic while himself being immature , anti-Semitic and xenophobic.
Hahaha I know, right?
You said on one of your comments - When I was at school in the US there were a few PolAM guys in class who were good but the top positions were either ChineseAms, IndianAms or Russian (mostly Jewish).
So what? That's the truth. I grew up in the United States and I can definitely confirm that Russian Jewish-Americans, Chinese-Americans, and Indian-Americans perform much better academically than most Poles or Polish-Americans.
