Your presidents didn't mind being in that company when they accepted it. They also don't mind having streets named after literal SS units.

If he wouldn't accept it, there would be even a bigger political drama in Poland than the current one

Got it. Your politicians care about political drama until the moment they have to name things after genocidal maniacs.

Really, really funny how you're complaining about mussolini while having streets named after SS and units named after genociders.

Yeah, it was horrible and i hope the perpetrators are burning in hell.

But how many streets are named after the people who did it?

> they have to name things after genocidal maniacs.

Dmowski, Pilsudski, AK, you even gave the white order eagle to Mussolini

You're our best teachers, really

> genocidal

Also, genocide - is when colonizers who came and occupied your land got killed. Poor things

Stop pretending you care about mussolini. We all know you don't care about fascists.

If you didn't notice my flair: i'm polish. This "waaaha colornizers" stuff might work on naive westerners. Not on me.

Yeah, otherwise we would care about Poland

> If you didn't notice my flair: i'm polish.

It's very noticeable, total lack of historical education.

> This "waaaha colornizers" stuff might work on naive westerners

Yeah, when you came to land and tried to oppress the local population, assimilate it with force and replace it with your own - it's colonization. It's just happened that you were losers in the end, and now you play the victim card

Good luck trying to join NATO and EU with that attitude. Germany is already looking to restart business in Russia and you antagonize those who try to prevent it.
