After some search: it’s from Janusz Korwin Mikke, our favourite libertarian grifter (and a good one, he’s in the business in nearly 45 years at this point) who once posed with femboy and since he’s famous with young teenage boy* audience because his easy to digest simplicistic libertarianism, internet quickly started memeing how his entire fanbase starts to turn into femboys.

*He’s surprisingly not pedo though

It is, but Polish chritofash, exactly like the Usian ones, and all other fash before them, constantly cry how opressed they are and how LGBT, communists, Jews, masons etc are everywhere in force and are about to strike.

Also Btw hussars were recruited from elite of nobility, their number was 8000 at most, and usually way lower. Most Polish boys in the time were peasants getting their serfdom intensified.

I mean west was just like that back then too, only difference the flatbrain content was paper and not digital.

The bar is kinda low though, more or less at the level of NYT or Polish president Duda. Or NAFO now lol

Damn it’s not like in the picture anymore, now it’s almost instanteous

They send their sabers to Ukraine so now they have to rattle the fence.

Also fence is very good in repelling invasion of the enemy that don’t want to invade. Poland have one on border with Belarus and we didn’t get invaded by Belarus even once since it was build!

But seriously, it is a regional poor version of Trump wall and physical avatar of Iron Curtain. Its purpose is to create physical division between “us” and “them” and create impression that “they” are aggressive and will attack any moment, but also weak enough to be deterred by fence. You know, it’s fascism 101.

I mean just look at average Ukraine thread on .ml World News. It’s not even reddit, it’s not FBi-run nazi circlejerk, libs there has been exposed to truth regularily for all that time, and they still regurgitate banderite versions uncritically.

Polish “economic miracle” could means several things, we have one constantly reinvented by state propaganda to shut our faces and i lost count long ago what they mean currently. Generally over the last two decades i would say it’s blanket term for sucking up the cash from EU (Poland was and still is all the time most subsidized country) while not entirely integrating into EU financial structures to not be hit as hard by the crisises like in 2008 (fun fact: even the fucker balcerowicz knows euro is not good and lobbying hard for keeping currency was probably the only good thing he ever did) and actually quite skillful engineereing of social dumping both from and to Poland.

Before that it was standard for postsocialist country “let’s lose 30 years of development, become colonised, and call that economical miracle”

never heard of Poland(, or any country for that matter,) funding 100% of a company while leaving the dividends to foreign hands

Huh? That’s happening all the time, it’s called “privatisation”. In Poland (and i suspect in every postsocialist country) there was especially scummy way to do it in first 3 years of transformation: industry was bought by random people substituted by foreign business, for peanuts, and those peanuts were provided by the company being bought as lease, so effectively it was state just giving up the industry for free, nearly always into foreign hands.

It also did happened later like the case of modern steel mill being build, immediately sold for nearly nothing and of course liquidated as competition (in Silesia around 2005 iirc).

There was also even more blatant case i do known, though it probably also happened way more elswhere and wasn’t into foreign hands specifically: Meiji Japan build state industry and then to purposefully kickstart not even capitalism but immediately imperialism, they just given it up to zaibatsus, creating the industrial molochs that would lead Japan straight into fascism. And considering the still-mostly medieval development level of most of coutry it could be said that they literally pushed the imperialism button.

Also Stannis slander :(

I dont even metion pushing Jesus where and how he dont belong

Going by what happening with Intel right now, i stronly suspect it’s only empty talk. Though knowing Polish government and its servilism towards America, i wouldn’t be even very surprised if Poland funded 100% of that factory, after all it’s exactly what they were doing in 90’s

that 2023 was an exception

I wonder if this really were all military expenses.

This graph is not related at all, it’s from 2021 and it’s global investments, look at the y axis. Poland would barely be shown there as pixel. And in the other graphs in your link you can see that US investments in Poland were less than Belgian or Swiss or Swedish, and even by the ultimate flow of capital still half of German ones and less than Netherlands.

Over 1/3rd of it was to be financed by Polish tax money and it was scrapped anyway.

No way US pumps more money in Poland than Germany, unless this is counting all the expenses on their base in Poland as “direct investment”

Oh, it is about the line, but not on the map, it’s the same line that must ever go up, and for that it killed 1000 Americans per day, and the same that killed millions Iraqis, Koreans, Vietnamese, Palestinians etc. etc.

Sure but it would at least be funny if in public.

Will he even recognize Zelensky at this point?

Taking a walk is also a hobby!

Yes i meant thing like that too, as i said “free time enjoyers”. And funnily enough taking a walks is commonly recognized as quite fun and legit hobby in Poland, though less and less as we get crushed with work and general crunch more and more.

or will we find, at times, we allowed our sympathy for the Ukrainian cause to overlook matters we shouldn’t?

When dust settles there will be no sympathy for Ukrainians anymore. They will be again relegated to the “subhuman asiatic horde” exactly like Chechens were. And it could be even worse, millions of Ukrainians are currently working and living in EU and a lot of them will not get back after the war ends. They will inevitably be used by USA and their European compradors as scapegoat in possibly hugest immigrant scare campaign possible in order of destabilise and vassalise EU even more.
