The Poles do have many racists as they are quite a pure nation that has never entertained immigration on a large scale. There is a large following of NS music with all the Hitler salutes that go with it. The average Pole knows better than to be racist for no reason tho

Poles and other eastern europeans have taken over this country. They don't understand that Britain is the most tolerant country in the world and accepts all peoples regardless of the colour of there skin. I know this polish girl who I worked with and she had a mixed-race child and she told me she was scared to go back to Poland so that her son could meet his grandparents. She was petrified. The ones that I have met have dour personalities and still consider all blacks just swing from trees in the jungle. Britain is a great country and the British are tolerant fair minded people which is something that most east europeans will never understand. They are homophobic and racist and have a lot to learn from us Brits.

I don't think so. As Seanus said, Poland never had a lot of immigrates, most of people in Poland are Polish, and if not maybe German or another European origin. Do i have to remind you how were treated blacks by Brits, a century ago ? Poles never treated men like sh!t. It took a long time to Britain to be as "tolerant" as it is today, even if there are still racists.
I wouldn't say that Poland will "never" understand", plus you're generalizing, but people's minds will change as it has changed in Britain.

If the Brits were so tolerant, they'd accept the influx of foreigners

Did someone press an irony button? How can you make sweeping generalizations about eastern europeans and then include yourself in the mix of tolerant fair minded people?

I'm not saying you're right or wrong, but if one reads what you've written then they'd be hard pressed to take what you've written as anything more than lazy reactionary thinking.

Apparently Polish Tatars are honest and decent people. If you want media coverage, you need to be either absolutely dishonest (politicians), freak or deviant.

I don't make judgements until I at least know a good part of the issue at hand. I guess they are decent. It's good that they are not treated like the Burakamin are by Japanese people, i.e a piece of trash. Did u know that Poles name a cake 'mużyn'? That could be interpreted as being racist in a petty way. I have found some Poles to be quite racist as I've overheard their mutterings in Polish and they didn't know that I could understand it to quite a high level.

I think it is very backward thinking of poles to be racist, especially when thousands of them were being gassed and shoved into ovens in ww2, until britain saved them.

wikipedia - "Nazi ideology stressed the racial purity of the German people and persecuted those it perceived either as enemies or Lebensunwertes Leben, that is "life unworthy of life". (This included Jews, Slavs, Roma and homosexuals(See also Paragraph 175), along with Jehovah's Witnesses, the mentally and/or physically disabled, socialists, and communists.) To carry out these beliefs, the party and the German state which it controlled organized the systemic murder of approximately 11 million people in what has become known as the Holocaust."

poles should not forget history

It was not strong it was historic fact, how can you be racist when thousands of your ancestors were killed because of their race.

Most of Poles ARE racist, there is no doubt. The funny part is that they truly don't understand it; they honestly don't believe you when you point it out to them. Just today I've seen a post here titled "Jews are a problem" or something like that. Do you think that any other Poles objected to that? No. They think it's OK, just "debating", that's all.
And yeah, it is especially idiotic because we Poles are Slavs, an "inferior race" according to the Nazi philosophy.

Well looked what happend to Peter Thatchell the gay rights activist when he went over to to support eastern european gays in Moscow. It was hardly a welcoming mat and the Russian police stood there and watched him take a beating from so called friendly eastern europeans. Very open minded society hmmmmm.

Even Putin the Russian leader said that Racism is major problem in there society. Get real mate because I know I am. People of colour beware when you travel to eastern europe because you are a siting target especially at night.

Also the Ross Kemp documentary about gangs in Poland highlighted there xenophobic and nationlists attitudes in Crackove. I was amazed that a polish guy came on camera and said that he told a black man and his white polish girlfriend to leave a bar because he did not like it. Thats caveman stuff honestly.

generalisations are made from observations that can conclude from varying sources and experiances that a certain culture is more inclined than another to view a matter a differant way.

nobody is saying every single person is racist in poland, they are saying that GENERALLY poles are more racist than their eu counter parts. There is a big differance.

If the eivdence and experiances that lead to that generalisation is accurate then there is no problem with generalising.

your foolish arguemtn is pc rubbish that would lead us to believe that brits dont like a drink because not every single 55 million of them drink (even though the majority drink to excess)

i stand by my comments.

"[EU] counterparts[?]" I suggest you follow your own advice there chief. I won't deny there is a different view on a lot of things here in Poland and by Poles themselves. But don't make things out to be anything more than what they are. The points I went after are specifically those that overstate the situation.

So don't go there. I personally don't use to travel to countries of "people of colour" because among other things doing so in many case would be very danger (just check today's news) and somehow I don't feel the need to join Nigerian or Kenian forums to write about It. Simply mind your own business.
