FUZZYWICKETS: piotrus.: American people in most cases have rather poor knowledge not just about Poland but they don't known much about Europe ether
FUZZYWICKETS: and how sir, do you know that?
I know that because i get ignorant questions about where I come from all the time.
FUZZYWICKETS: It's not really taught in schools and people are fine with it. It's just culture here.
but you don't want to be ignorant its rather bad thing
FUZZYWICKETS: Most countries like to hate the USA and simply find it easier and more enjoyable to join the bandwagon. It reminds me of the fact that so many americans are prejudiced towards the french. they don't even know why they dislike the french, they just hate them because somebody told them that they didn't want to help us fight a war once upon a time, or something to that effect. any of you remember "freedom fries"? hating is contagious and makes for good table talk and a lot of people just fall right in line with the hate fest so that they're part of the team. that, and it's generally easier to just agree with people in your social circle.
I'm glad you understand that, I would like to see that applied to all the comments about Poland/Poles on this forum, seriously there is enough hatred towards Poland, USA and just any country.
and btw fact that someone disagree or hate policy of said country doesn't mean they hate it at all, people are too sensitive to critique about USA and take it personally.
I don't like many things about USA but my "love/hate" balance is positive
