    I remember in a waiting room a Polish handyman wearing a face mask talking to the reception. He had to repeat himself because he was speaking Polish-accented English when everyone else was speaking in Dutch and with a serious face he pulled his mask down looking like a moron so he could 'communicate better'. He did it with an air of 'let the Polish handyman solve this conversation and make this short'.

    Is this an example of why the Polish stereotype is that of stupidity? It was really like a reconstructed Polish joke.

    His accent sounded like in this cartoon:

    Stupidity is also a Belgian stereotype, or at least a Flemish one in the eyes of the Dutch. Still, I started understanding those American Polish jokes better from that Polish encounter a while back. You see, Polish Americans came off as ignorant and naive by other immigrant communities in the US, and thus the Polish joke was born. Probably typical of people who used to be ruled over by foreigners for centuries to the point they lost their elite.

    Doesn't mean Poles (or Flemish/Belgians) for that matter are less intelligent of course, but it was curious.

    I also met my fair share of stupid Dutchmen though. People who go in discussion with anyone and want to argue over nothing and then assume I am an 'offended Belgian' according to their fantasy while they are losing their cool as the only party and showing signs of irritability raising their voice. Also fun people to have around lol. They attack a strawman of their own making pre-emptively and that's usually how such encounters start. That's a Dutch thing, being able to sell garbage by being able to believe their own bullshit where a Fleming typically keeps his mouth shut.

    But I still like the Dutch, despite many the people often feeling superior.

W tym samym roku Tuwimowie adoptowali córkę Ewę. W latach 1947–1950 pełnił funkcję kierownika artystycznego Teatru Nowego. W listopadzie 1949 został członkiem Ogólnokrajowego Komitetu Obchodu 70-lecia urodzin Józefa Stalina. Po wojnie Tuwimowie otrzymali dom w Aninie przy ul. Zorzy 19, gdzie mieszkali wraz z Ireną Tuwim (siostrą poety). Dom ten po śmierci Tuwima nabył Piotr Jaroszewicz.


    https://www.pch24.pl/tuwim-w-sluzbie...m,17669,i.html

    Tuwim nie musiał na każdym kroku zapewniać o swojej miłości do komunizmu. A jednak to robił – wstawał, klaskał, wychodził przed szereg – mówi PCh24.pl Andrzej Gajewski, reżyser, twórca m.in. „Erraty do biografii Juliana Tuwima”.

    Co się stało z Julianem Tuwimem w 1943 roku? To mniej więcej wtedy przystępuje on do grona zwolenników Związku Sowieckiego.

    (...)

    Twórcom o takich nazwiskach jak Tuwim gwarantowano nakłady idące w setki tysięcy egzemplarzy, przydzielano wille, sowicie nagradzano, nie tylko medalami. Nie pomawiam Tuwima o cynizm, uważam, że on w tę „religię” rzeczywiście uwierzył. Natomiast zdumiewa mnie jak wielka to musiała być wiara, skoro nie zachwiał nią pogrom kielecki.

    (...)

    Trudno oceniać Tuwima jednoznacznie, bo obok hymnów pochwalnych na cześć Lenina, Stalina i komunizmu,

    (...)

    Wystarczył jeden list do Bieruta.

    (...)

    Czy Tuwim bał się, że jego wiara w komunizm jako wyzwoliciela od antysemickiej ideologii jest nietrafiona, że jest pomyłką?

    (...)

    ...w końcu chodził przecież na te wszystkie wiece i bale. Wstawał i klaskał, wychodził przed szereg. Krzysztof Masłoń w „Erracie…” mówi tak: „Wstrętny był w tych swoich deklaracjach.... koniecznie musiał opowiadać o swojej osobistej miłości do Związku Radzieckiego”, tego na każdym kroku robić nie musiał, a robił.
    All of this is about post-war times, while "Całujcie mnie wszyscy w dupę" was written in 1937. So before he became a communist.

    I doubt he became suddenly. He had to have similar views earlier.

    https://histmag.org/Wygnanie-Juliana-Tuwima-8545

    Przewodniczący Zarządu Związku Pisarzy Radzieckich Ukrainy namawiał polskich artystów i pisarzy, którzy znaleźli się po 17 września na Wschodzie, do przyjazdu do Lwowa. Obiecywał pomoc i pracę; troje wymienił z nazwiska: Wandę Wasilewską, Broniewskiego i Tuwima.

    https://histmag.org/Tuwim-wywrotowiec-7042

    O tym, że Julian Tuwim był poetą o poglądach raczej lewicowych, nie trzeba nikogo przekonywać. Przed laty ulicę, na której znajdowała się przedwojenna siedziba PPS-u, nazwano właśnie jego imieniem. W tym przypadku połączenie to jest nad wyraz trafne, bowiem Tuwim był silnie związany z polskimi socjalistami, w tym również z ich organem prasowym, dziennikiem zatytułowanym „Robotnik”.

    27 października 1929 roku w „Robotniku” został zamieszczony wiersz Juliana Tuwima Do prostego człowieka. Jak się okazało, wywołał on spore zamieszanie.

    Why? Probably he became suddenly because the Red Army liberated the remaining Holocaust survivors.

    So in the Union of Socialist Soviet Republics the term socialist was a mistake?

    And what with 45 years of building "socialism" in Poland, and "real socialism"?
    Was this also a mistake? They really didn't know who they were?

    The idea, that a "socialist" is some kind of social worker, is a total bullshit, supported by both sides.
    Left - because they do not want to be associated with their genocidal past, and by so called "right"
    because many of them were reds or their heros, like Piłsudski (PPS), Kaczyńscy (family in PPS, Lech
    called himself a leftist) Ziobro (father in PZPR until the very end in 1990), etc.

    I don't remember if I asked this question:

    Do they transmit Latin American soap operas in Polish TV? and from which Latin American countries? Mexico? Venezuela? Colombia? Peru? Brazil? Argentina?

    Poles. Even Poldoyches in majority. Versus Gorallenvolk.

    Unfortunatly yes, across the years probably from all of them.
    Mexico, Venesuela, Brasil and Argentina are the countries which I know of.
    I think Colombia and Peru ware also represented, but I am not sure, more about Peru than Colombia.

    And since some 8 years I do not watch TV at all, idk if still are, but probably are.
