News / Karol Nawrocki - the New President of Poland [459]

@Miloslaw

He's talking about the difference between absolutes and relative figures.

If Poland has an economy of $10, and grows 20% - next year it will be $12 in size.

If Germany has an economy of $50, grows 10% - next year it will be at $55.

Poland grew $2, and Germany grew $5 - even though Poland is growing faster.

See?

-///--

I don't think this is as "impressive" as Alien thinks, and I agree with you Poland has been displaying very impressive economic growth - whereas Germany is in major trouble - but still.. he is right.

After he got poisoned, and woke up from him coma - in Germany - the first thing he wanted to do was go back home.

This surprised Putin.

I think it surprised a lot of us.

Huge respect to this man and his memory.


Unfortunately no. He is leader of a big country, with many resources, and many people.

News / Karol Nawrocki - the New President of Poland [459]


Fair enough and I apologize.

I do respect him, and I can see why you argue he was the most "real" of the Troika.

But his "solutions" for the Greeks, still make them remember him in the same terms as people in South Sudan interpret the legacy of the people of North Sudan vis-a-vis their region.

Or the same way people from Calabria, see the actions of people from Lombardy.

Never.


I'm just joking man.

I never said one bad thing at you (check the archives) - not in jest, not seriously. I defended you against various scum. I always defended your word.

Because I read what you write. I read what you lived.

You are my senior. I already owe you respect - but then also your family history - means I have to stay silent.

I can't say that for anybody else out of the old folks. Milo was born to asylum seekers - I don't care.

I understand what you write, but not many here do.

Can't speak for Torq - but the only feminine thing about myself is I like massages.


You're so strange.

What's wrong about tearing up over art?

I do it all the time - and I am still ready to step away and eats someone liver or behave as a wolf.

You are blind not to see he loves the place.

You should show more of your poetic side like me and Torq - the two resident weirdos.


I miss him.

This is usually when the brain stops working, and the penis starts working full time.... At least for me.

Of course - because to tame such a mare - is a credit to any ambitious boy on the village.

She is wild. She is passionate.

Currently my love of Poland is of the BDSM kind.

But I can see - how one day it could become a brunch or fashionable picnic kind.

Not with too much attention please... because as he will be the first to say - oftentimes he is a simple arsonist.

What you have taught me, and others - is that there are a great many ways to love Poland.

News / Poland's aid to Ukraine if Russia invades - part 26 [950]

@Torq

To hate Poles, as much as he hates them - one must love them to the same extent, or possibly greater.

Believe me.

No one knows as a Russian the fine line between hate and love.

Thank you, thank you very much!


Of course, henceforth I will do my best to translate his posts.

To-date, the content of most of his posts is along the lines of, "Hello, I am Lyzko - a galactic retard. People **** in my hat, and I appreciate it."

Putler and Golden Cow represent 150M and 350M people respectively.

You cannot paint a whole country through the lens of their temporary leaders.

I know this - even as the Poles on the Forum hate you.

It's evident in many things you wrote over the years that you love Poland.

Not just the school visits, but the way you engage on your "good" days with certain subjects.

News / Karol Nawrocki - the New President of Poland [459]


Expecting Eastern Europe to subscribe to your enlightened ways shows your naivete.

While we starved, and marched into gas chambers - those Greek faggots were sailing their ships around the Mediterranean and behaving as heroes.

Who let you down from Eastern Europe?

Who ate more than he can pay for?

In the Euro crisis it was not the Easterners, but the PIIGS (Portugal, Ireland, Italy, Greece, Spain).

News / Poland's aid to Ukraine if Russia invades - part 26 [950]


No - you don't buy nukes because even Russia and America chaff at the cost of maintaining these things we could never use - maintaining titanic supply chains which are not useful for anything else - and institutes and university faculties (that are similarly useless).

Poland should invest in itself, not the toys of the big boys that want to play at global politics.

@Novichok

Well, regardless of what it was - it served that purpose you mentioned. So it may as well be a Russian terroristic attack.

Tusk said he knew what was up, within 48 hours. Some law enforcement people and curious people in other European countries raised their eyebrows at this kind of "live commentary" of ongoing investigations. Something one would expect more from a Kash Patel, than a Donald Tusk...

It didn't seem to create the reaction Tusk wanted in other places (probably because of all the above reasons), but it definitely did its job within Poland.

Look at what Torq told me - "the PM said as much, and unlike him - I don't have law enforcement and intelligence agencies reporting to me".

Then why not blow it as the train passes over it? The extra $5 of budget for a piece of copper and a battery was too much?

Why not just use a crowbar and a carjack, to f*ck up not one single piece of rail, but dozens of different places along the track? No explosives necessary!

We could be sending Polish trains off their tracks all over the country, with a dedicated group of 25 people - and the Poles would have to spend untold millions to put a stop to it. The equipment would be the same as can be bought in any hardware store.

News / Poland's aid to Ukraine if Russia invades - part 26 [950]


To be clear - I'm not an expert in explosives, and I don't know how rail steel behaves in different regimes.

Before I saw that photo - I was pretty convinced that we indeed hired some Ukrainian teenagers to do this, and then extracted them to Belarus...

But after I saw this photo, I became not so sure.

Now it seems to me like the original story was full of gaping holes.

Ah, of course...

Wolfgang Schäuble was not a cannibal and an autist, but merely very concerned that Greece learns the correct lessons.

News / Poland's aid to Ukraine if Russia invades - part 26 [950]


I don't know.

Lots of people are saying that that's exactly what a broken piece of rail looks like.

Lots of people are saying that it's very strange, that a blast could tear apart a heavy piece of iron, but not displace the gravel on which the sleepers are sitting.

-//-

Finally - nobody can adequately explain why Russia decided to go from accidental drone flights, to immediately killing 500 innocent Poles.

I mean... the potential killing of 500 Poles is definitely something to get angry about, but why would Russia do that? Seems a kind of stupid thing to do, no? Without many beneficial effects - if any. Probably more likely to make our life much worse - in fact.

-//--

Maybe you have old and dilapidated rail infrastructure, and a piece of iron - through stress and fatigue - finally broke off, and an attentive engineer noticed it in time?

-//-

Look again at the photo your authorities provided, below. How come the gravel did not go in all directions?

It looks like the thing just broke...

@cms neuf

I understand the emotional impulse - but getting nukes is totally stupid and a huge waste of time and money.

Russia won't attack Poland. If it does - some homeopathic amount of nukes won't change the balance.

No one other than Russia poses any kind of threat to Poland, whatsoever.

As recently as ten years ago, Russo-Polish relations were honky-dory. Tomorrow they could be good again, and then it would make you feel especially stupid to be sitting on a bunch of expensive nukes.

-//-

Instead of nukes, continue to work ever closer with your European partners. Maybe get French or British stationing of nukes in Poland, and permission to use them in emergencies (subject to final French/British approval - to insure against crazy Polish stuff).

Do more military exercises, with various Finlands and Norways.

But best of all - find a way to "extinguish" the Russian threat diplomatically.
