        Poland foreign affairs are weird because they are essentially two different bodies. The regular diplomatic corps is actually competent (very slowly losing it after 1989), able to maintain proper relations with everyone they want, though of course some ambassadors from political nomination are shitty, but i can't even remember any really serious incidents caused by them.

        The Foreign Ministry though, are usually (both in case of PiS and PO) horde of drunken hogs with snouts surgically attached to USA boot and ass, which notoriously end up in spectacular failures like the infamous Iran conferency. Only reason we are as of yet be able to still maintain most relations is that the Foreign Ministry is usually treated as political loot to place the most incompetent and lazy bastards in winning parties so for the most of the time they do nothing but embezzle money and leave the mundane work to the professionals. And all important decisions are made in Washington for them anyway.

          Thank you for the lesson, that’s really cool how the diplomats have a certain degree of independence in their actions.

        I tend to know less than you all when it comes to the internal politics of most countries. But let me dig something up from my notes with my brother one sec

          No worries, you just sounded like you knew more than me on the topic. If not we can appreciate the pierogi politics from a distance while grilling or something

            All of my Poland links are in the Ukraine folder. Typical brainless Z poster. I can't even find it, it's gotta be online somewhere.

              No worries. If you’re going so far as creating and maintaining research folders, there is an effort post comm. archiving your collection(s) and posting it(them) would probably count as praxis tbh. Knowledge wants to be shared

                Well I was thinking about the stuff we all know from the Ukraine crisis for the large part, the eye catching stuff about retaking Galicia, but I was looking for examples when the right wing is oppositional to things which aren't intuitive to me. No global unified bourgeoisie etc.

                I just find it funny when hyper reactionaries feud with the EU and shit. I still don't understand the whole brexit thing either
