  1. Nothing funny here. Polish was strictly forbidden in schools, offices and in public overall. Bismarck wanted to exterminate Poles the same way Hitler did some 40 years later. Private lands were confiscated, in the Russian zone you could be shipped to Siberia into the coal mines for singing national anthem among other things. Imagine some Mexican offical sending you to Yukon mines (and you're getting jailed straight away) for waving the US flag and then we can have jokes about nationalism being a bad thing . You will NEVER understand why Poland isn't so happy to follow the German or Russian world order after all those years of oppression
  2. Can't blame Poland for being conservative after 123 years of Russian/Austrian/German occupation - a mere 20 year break - and 40 more years of Russian communist occupation. You will never understand that and it's the main reason why Poland isn't as liberal as some of the Western countries to say the very least. We've had enough of foreign influence in our history to be so nationalistic right now. And yeah, this is OUR experience as a nation. Imagine USA being under Mexican rule for 120 years with English being forbidden as a language and then we can talk about whether conservatism is such a bad choice
  3. It's obvious he will defend the most-Israel friendly President USA has had in the last 50 years It's a no-contest here.
  4. I've said this before, democratic sociallism works well in Nordic countries - small population and huge natural resources you can cash in. If USA population was 5.5 million like Denmark then Sanders would have a genuine shot at making it happen. However it's NEVER going to happen in a country with population of 300m+
  5. I'm like twice as old as you and "my generation" in high school NEVER talked politics. We were more busy with cigs, drinks & chicks My sister majored in psychology and runs her own private practice now and guess what, she's gone all left-wing ever since her uni days. You're not inventing the wheel here, buddy. Even in such a racist country as Poland (by your own account) psychologists are left-wing maniacs And despite all of all, I'm OUT on the "water isn't wet" debate. Maybe it's worth the squeeze in the psychology world and everyone with a degree can think I'm just a complete moron, but it's a total waste of my time. Again, this is 21st century, people don't communicate anymore, they're only trying to sell their own vision and will never accept that they're wrong and someone else might actually be right. That's what I think of "your generation". You saying "water isn't actually wet" only confirms it. I'm OUT.
  6. And your response is the perfect example why the entire politics is a waste of time Some people are going to even argue the water isn't wet just to win a debate. This is so 21st century when "my way is the only way". Got better things to do than arguing what the word "wet" means. Over and out
  7. Trump is nothing compared to the likes of Lyndon Johnson who send thousands of Americans to die in Vietnam during a useless war USA was never going to win You elected a millionaire businessman to office, what did you expect from Trump? These kind of people are always following their own script. Every single member of the lucky sperm club is narcisstic. You expect to be appluaded for saying the water is wet?
  8. Trump is a businessman and has been his entire life. He's not a poitician and never was. To think of him as monster is ridiculous but I understand how bitter all the liberals are after he punked Hilary Clinton against all odds. Besides, nobody gives a fuck about Bill Clinton and his oral sex anymore. So much for a fitting legacy. In 20 years time nobody will remember Trump's impeachment either
  9. Clemens blew it hard, shouldn't have been into a deciding leg anyway and van de Pas won on his first match dart
  10. Of course the "military advisors" are always present , USA officially operates only one radar station but they invested more money in Israel than anywhere else in the world over the last 50 years.
  11. The military & strategic value of Turkey is much bigger than Greece & Cyprus. USA needs a foothold in the Middle East and operating US military bases out of Israel would be prelude to WWIII. Turkey as the secular Muslim country is perfect for the job especially after you lost the Iran alliance following the 1979 Islamic revolution. Jordan might try to play the neutral party but I seriously doubt "being friends with Lebanon" is possible as long as Hezbollah HQ is located there
  12. Turkey was the US ally during WWII and you have military bases build there since the 50s. How many US military bases are there across former Soviet Union countries like Armenia? The last sitting US president who called this a genocide was Reagan, after that everyone was afraid to upset Turkey. Even Obama only spoke of the genocide during his term in Congress, once he got elected President, he backed right off and never used the word "genocide" again. Welcome to big time politics, pal
  13. What's the point of this anyway? They could alternate opening & closing ceremonies between the two stadiums but the same one on both of them? Kroenke's ego must be frickin' hilarious (there's a vague chance he won't live that far though ).
  14. The new stadium in Inglewood will probably be hosting more than just Rams/Chargers games in the future? Unless Kroenke tells everyone to bugger off or demands too much leasing money
  15. I remember when Rams had to settle in Anaheim because they were drawing dead in LA and it still didn't work. There's just too much in-house competition in LA for anything like PanAm or Youth Games to have a shot of being a sell-out success IMO. I'm shocked The Forum is still operational, it's been 20 years since Lakers left? The colleges are all doing mighty fine inside the NCAA system, they don't really need these test events IMO.
  16. Does it really make sense to use the Memorial Coliseum for anything other than Summer Olympics? Probably not. What is your next best shot? Rose Bowl? Still too big for stuff like Youth Games. Obviously the Angels are only merely relevant these days because of Trout, nobody cares about what happens in Anaheim. Los Angeles is doing fine without the "test events" as you call them. And I bet you're confident enough to sell the SOG without these test events to begin with
  17. Olympics is one thing that might work in LA. Other than that you're competing with Lakers, Clippers, Dodgers, USC and maybe the Rams. It's a no-win contest for PanAm or Youth Games and other stuff. Nobody would give a damn about that.
  18. Yep, even Polish TV is talking about the empty stands. I bet the organizers knew it's best to put the last match between two non-UK players.
  19. Of course it's worth noticing that Krzysztof Ratajski became the first player to win a PDC World Championship match earlier today
  20. I remember watching Sherrock play in the BDO women's final few years back, I wonder why she hasn't become more successful since. Maybe this is where her career takes off?
  21. Sherrock wins on 2nd match dart!
  22. I totally forgot about the mid-week December GS in Courchevel. What happened to Shiffrin? I see both her runs are way off her normal pace? Maybe she hang out with her BF instead of practicing this week?
  23. Just listening is so against the progressive ways though. Several of the liberals claim these people who were allegedly ignored have a right to speak now and should explore that option even beyond limits. How is listening progressive then? Nobody is debating Republicans anymore because everyone is happy to mock Trump every which way. You don't have to check any facts to claim Trump is a liar, clown and whatever else. It's the current flow of the game. Social media has rendered journalism as unreliable as ever. Nobody is waiting for the evening news or morning newspaper to check what's going on. Any story is fresh for 5 minutes and then it's just the usual back & forth in the comments section where everyone pretends to be right but it's only a trench warfare. One tweet can do more damage than hundreds of pages of newspaper editions. People don't really communicate anymore, one flawed emoji or a bad meme and you're getting swept under the hateful response. Not to mention people like Murdoch or Zuckerberg don't listen to anyone and simply control the world from their high castles
  24. Just look at the Corbyn collapse in the UK. Johnson is the urban elitist educated at Eton (and Trump-like clown) yet it's Corbyn/Labour who got dismissed as racist and appeasing the urban area elites! Labour suffered the worst elections since 1935! Democrats are heading the same way if Sanders and Cortez-Ocasio break through with their socialist ideas. You'll suffer the same fate as Corbyn and then you'll be wondering what the hell happened. You dismiss/ignore the older blue collars and you're fucked. Hell, this is one of the chief reasons Hilary Clinton lost in 2016 already. Yeah, right. Fox News is the progressive evil. If you dislike both CNN & Fox then what the hell are you watching?
  25. CNN is just as liberal and Democrat-friendly as any media goes and even they begin to realize what the REAL problem really is: https://edition.cnn.com/2019/12/14/politics/us-britain-politics-boris-johnson-donald-trump-labour-party-democrats-election-2020/index.html Obama was Tony Blair. Cut the sociallism bullshit (Obamacare wasn't really that because in USA if you don't have medical insurance you might as well check in as homeless) and ride with the moderate wave. It worked for him very well indeed. Funny how it worked for Blair well too until he slipped on the Iraqi invasion which he was forced to ride with the ole buddies from USA.
