More Revision of Historical Fact in Ynet News Israel

dtaylor, can you provide some concrete examples of your claim, perhaps via a link to some source on the net of what you are exactly trying to say? I've taught in a Polish public school and have seen firsthand what they learn in classes such as History. I haven't witnessed any form of a 'political agenda'. They learn accurate historical facts very well and I haven't seen anything indicating otherwise. Again, please provide examples.

if you havent learnt that generalisations can be made and stereotypes do exist then you are spectacularly niave. its a simple approach referred to as 'segmentation' in marketing terms. someone has pigeonholed you

we all fall into categories, some of which have positive attributes and some negative. being concious of this encourages selfawareness and the ability step back in observation. it also enables critical assessment

as with many poles, but by no means all, you are unable to see this despite it having been pointed out enlessly to you and your like on this forum. i am fortunate because it provides me with an endless source of amusement

thanks for the laugh

But isn't this the gist of racism, anti-semitism and homophobia? Putting people into negative categories?
Why racist generalizations can not be made while others, like generalizing about Poles being racist, can?

of course it is. we all form preferences and prejudices based on our interpretations of distinctive characteristics, regardless of what context they are applied to. on what we are allowed to express our prejudices, and how we chose to espress them, are governed by many factors. as you are no doubt aware. but this does not preclude the fact that both the characteristics and prejudices exist

its the same process of generalisation that allows polish women to be placed upon a pedistal. only a fool would apply their characteristics across the board. but only a fool would deny the characteristics do infact exist

If you are incapable of being more precise rather than vague and hollow headed when senselessly attributing characteristics to an entire population, then you are surely incompetent.



Great to see you entertaining yourself with your shallow humor. The joke is on you and we are all laughing.

Heck, your making me laugh all the time!

Next time you're gonna be a smartarse about English, learn it yourself, boy.
Now, shoo, go away, join other children in the sandbox.

brilliant. but your of polish extraction so what makes you think youre opinion matters in the overall scheme of things?

is your beard real, you dont look old enough to shave...

It's another time your refering to my beard. Is it your fetish, or something? Or your just jelous because there are REAL men with beards?

Hug your Barbie, go to sleep and leave this forum for real men.

i heard there were some real men with beards. tell me, where did you buy youres?

right, im off to bed mum.

can you read me that story about the toilet cleaner who fell in the bog whilst trying to fish out his new beard?

thats my favourite

Thanks for making me laugh and smile today;)

thats what im here for :-)

have a great day and watch out for the fake-beards!

Is there one person on PF that you have not insulted yet?

I can see you're making progress. Keep trying.

The story you mentioned... I never heard of one, so that must have been a story from your mum's personal journal.

Are you back home from kindergarten? You're free to go out and play with another kids. And behave.

it might well have been one from my mums own personal library. she did have a polish cleaner who was typically stupid and just the sort of person who would drop things down the john

now i dnt want to make you uncomfortable, but i have been wondering why, given that you come from a country renownd for its latent homophobia, did you decide to buy a beard that made you look such a woofter?

right. im off for ice cream with the rest of the kiddies





i see youre making progress too, although i suspect you are just copying me

Judging from your posts, you must be very young, but wait few years, you're be able to grow your own beard. That's what happens to little boys when they reach certain age.

Your mum had a library and stupid polish cleaner who dropped things down the john? What's the connection? Is that your usual train of thought? Figures.

Apart from fetishes about bearded men you're also have one about toilets, it seems.
Just don't drink water out of it.

yes, im a 12 yr old girl who lives on a potato farm in idoha
