beelzebub: You have repeatedly said I am ripping on Poland your very first post on this thread:
beelzebub: This is one of those things about people I find interesting...especially Poles since there is such an ego issue with that culture. If someone had said a Polish scientist created a cure for cancer the Poles would be on here defending the rumor and talking about how great Poles are....but since it is a negative rumor people immediately argue against it. It shows how much egos and pride affect people. Poles love to take credit for everything but when anyone says something negative they deny it like their life depended on it. I am not saying there is anything to the AIDS comment but the trend holds true. Second post:
beelzebub: Agreed all people do this to a degree...but Poles are the worst about it. I would rank them right up with Russian and most Arab cultures. I base this on living and traveling all over before someone calls me a Pole hater. It is one of the things that drove me nuts about living there. Hearing people brag and take credit for everything under the sun but god forbid anyone questioned them or didn't agree Poland was the cradle of civilization. Worse yet they all seemed to be experts on the USA and critical of our lifestyle yet they had never been. I have noticed that the less powerful a nation or culture is the more they like to bluster. I really don't get the ego stuff. Third post:
beelzebub: I said it goes to show how vehemently people (Poles more so than most in my view) are defensive to anything that doesn't proclaim their greatness. The ego runs larger there. joepilsudski and Seanus say it was the U.S that made AIDs and you change your stance:
beelzebub: but when the US is ripped on I "change my tune" and get defensive. fourth post:
beelzebub: Oh give me a break...you think HIV was created by the US Government? You have to be having a go. A weapon that takes years/decades to kill isn't much of a weapon. Common sense is dead in this world. I think you're funny and now you are trying to tell me that is not what you said?
And I love the way you call me names as if it makes the slightest bit of differences :)
