    Poland has been a raging cunt towards their neighbours for over 500 years.

    You could replace Poland in that sentence with almost every other European nation (ignoring issues of predecessor nations not having the exact same borders of course).

      Yeah, with the difference that everyone else chilled the fuck out by now. With exception of Perfidious Albion and maybe the Swamp Germans. Poland not so much, their drift into ultra nationalistic hate doesn’t slow down, it speeds up and gets worse every year. The more money they get, the more of it they use to sabotage the EU.

        Most of the other countries in Europe seem to be moving to the political right again too right now. Though you might have a point that Poland stayed conservative and nationalist in the last few decades while others changed.

          Yeah, kind of. PiS isn’t a new development, but they get extremer and extremer as time goes by just as their political allies get more facist. It’s like Poland started out with 500 nationalism with everyone else at 100, and now they’re bordering 1000 with everyone else pulling up to 300. Well, Italy is at 700. Germany’s NSDAP2.0 might boost them up there somewhere as well with the next election or the one after that. Fun time all around. Can’t wait for all the facists to start arguing land borders.

      Not really, my country’s neighbours are certainly not perfect but I would never categorise them as raging cunts. In fact they have been fairly decent.

        Maybe not now but 500 years of European history has a lot of bad things.
