Polish is easier to read when written in Cyrillic, but apparently native poles don’t like that idea. Why not invent your own alphabet or Atleast bring over some Cyrillic phonology for specific letters?
The Czechs and Croats solved this problem by adding Č,Ć,Đ,Ž,Š and DŽ letters, while Poles continued to use letters ill suited for writing down sounds unique to slavic languages.
i don’t get it, we also added some new letters (ą, ę, ś, ć, etc.), and some digraphs (sz, cz, rz, ch, etc.). how is it different from what Czechs and Croats did?
Hey, I’m looking for reflections of imperialist propaganda, imported and spread through some specific American folly. Can you think of any comedy subgenres that might fit this description?
You should check out Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. It’s pretty old by now, but it still works as reflections of imperialist propaganda, imported and spread through U.S. troops with names like Derek and Brad.
Hoo boy do I envy you. So, upon opening up its trade ports to the Dutch, Japan not only ushered in a cultural revolution, but a culinary one. Many new styles of foods and flavors were introduced. Some people didn’t like this though. They thought they should just stick to native fruits and vegetables, not these foreign bananas (ばな literally “wood foot food”) the Dutch typically brought with them. So, preparing for their own future imperialist ambitions, Japan invented coded language using food to refer to their future rivals. When the Americans caught yellow fever during WW2, they imported many of these same racist jokes. They still carry on this tradition today - you can find out more at the historical resource lemonparty.org
I can’t speak to the opinions of the Polish people, but I’d imagine that’s considered an upgrade from when the jokes were largely about them being bafflingly stupid.
Polish jokes are a reflection of imperialist propaganda, imported and spread through American xenophobia. This is funny, I just also like history

I’m just now realizing that “pole” does not mean a metal cylindrical object and, infact, is a group of people living in Poland
We used to say “Polack” but only in a derogatory way because people arw terrible.
I’ve always kinda disliked the name Pole for that reason, but it is what it is

okay so i clicked that link and first a NSFW of two elderly gentlemen flashed and then a chatroom opened, is that- is that the historical resource?
I didn’t realize how hot history is! Got any stories about goats or oddly-colored waffles???
you right though
I mean, this is incredibly tame for imperialist propaganda. You wouldn’t believe the shit I see in America. Take Enemy At The Gates for example.
Half the polish jokes today are just about the language putting too many consonants together.
I thought I had a meme about Polish people doing Florida man stuff, but I didn’t
The only one I remember is this story
Accept this kurwa as a substitute: KURWA
