    Fun fact: Poland literally begged for that on their knees, offering all manners of vassal pledges in exchange, for nearly 30 years. It’s been finally graciously granted by the sovereign in 2019, but it’s only on 90 days and you must still get permit in ESTA (which you basically can’t get if you were ever convicted or for many other reasons).

        The wish to be more like “the west” at least that’s what people born in the 70’s tell me 🙄

        All superificial bullshit. Having access to jeans, western cars, bananas all year 'round, being able to vacation in Paris or Rome…

        All of the people I have the displeasure to talk to are condtioned with terminal treat brain. I hate their understanding of the world.

        Why are people like this 😐😐😐

        Money or idealism (look what it did to mfers). Though usually not even that big money. If you look at polish political class formed by former opposition and opportunists, a lot of them advanced materially very much, though actually rarily to the real bourgeoisie, more to the grant-paid traitor scum territory, and the idealist opposition leaders got fucked up into the freak show veterans cathegory.
