who's the discount marcel

/v4/

lmao

it's so true

o kurva

what a nice platformer

😄

kurva kurva polska pierogi 😄

yes

now

if you think about it

deeply

really, really deeply

poles discover what lithuanians think of them from polish media

and lithuanians discover what poles think of us from lithuanian media

it's almost as if...

*people dont want two nations to have closer ties*

really makes your brain go bzzzzzzzzzzzzt

if Poles could just go to Lithuanian article comments and understand the language they'd see that no one really *hates* them, maybe just rivalry

and if Lithuanians did the same with Polish articles, they'd see that Poles dont really talk about Lithuanians at all

lel

you do?

lel

take it

we have anecdote in Lithuania

"people say that when Christmas comes, during the night, the residents of Vilnius start speaking Lithuanian"

my sister was going with bf somewhere

mom asked where and she said Poland

she got shocked and asked what for

only then she made clear that she meant vilnius

the statistics are very biased and shitty

before ww2/ww1 people didnt have same concept of nationality/ethnicity

being catholic meant you're polish most of the time

probably idk

they are but we werent before the poles came

we didnt even have last names before that

as we had no christian marriages

hence why so many last names are of Polish origin

and to marry you basically had to be christian and that basically meant speaking Polish

in other words getting polonized

it's hard to imagine the process of polonization as someone just standing there and beating you with belt until you become Polish

it's a long process

it was voluntary and not voluntary at same time

voluntary as it was more convenient but

non voluntary as in we didnt really have other choice

if you compare it with today;s populations

we have about 3 million people

and Poles have ~38 million people

if these countries merge obviously there will be huge cultural influence

so was during those times

you can stay Lithuanian

but that just meant staying peasant mostly

i hate cuckold meme

it's so dumb

no one cared if you were a lithuanian or polish back then

lots of elites were russian-saxon-italian-whatever

Vladimir von Shitterlitz

not the same as it became during the enlightment

because people are dumb

it was literally decided by like 5 people

because red is bad and communist

it's always shilled but what can they do

not differ from poland

differ from ussr

red just means the generic blood spilled for country thing

well you dont have to tell me that

i wont change it anyway

lol not again

there's no such thing as real lithuania

as the grand duchy doesnt even exist

god I wish that were me

I heard that parents called him Juozukas (diminutive of Juozas/Jozeph in Lithuanian) in his childhood

MY

BYLI

idk it's just from random article I read long ago

dont really care as again, there was no concept of nationalism as it is right now

I mean

before his time

you can say the same that communist ideas existed in 1500s

I meant in its current form

as we understand it in 21st century

well yeah I mean the rise of nationalism, enlightment

it wasnt until 1800s

oh right

Kant must have said something different

“As a matter of fact, no other language in the world has received such praise as the Lithuanian language. The garlands of high honour have been taken to Lithuanian people for inventing, elaborating, and introducing the most highly developed human speech with its beautiful and clear phonology. Moreover, according to comparative philology, the Lithuanian language is best qualified to represent the primitive Aryan civilization and culture".”
― Immanuel Kant
