Quite an excellent write-up you've posted here. I wholeheartedly agree, and I can also provide a greater insight into all of this and more about Poland, having lived there for more than three years. Being an American in Krakow, Warsaw, Gdansk, Poznan, Wroclaw, and just about anywhere in Poland was once considered a novelty. A White American man like myself was once considered exotic, and that includes men who are 5s and 6s, too.
However, in a strange twist of irony, Poland absorbed so much of American culture from NYC, LA, San Francisco, Chicago, etc., including Hollywood values, dating culture, and socialization, to name but a few, to the point where the novelty of American culture wore off, and Americans themselves were no longer exotic.
Interestingly enough, the Poles have absorbed the worst traits of Left-wing American culture, while keeping the worst traits of their native culture. The youth in Rzeszow, Krakow, Gdansk, Warsaw, Katowice, Wroclaw, and Poznan are among the snobbiest, narcissistic, passive-aggressive elitists I've ever had the displeasure of being around. They will ONLY like you, let alone respect you, if you're rich, handsome, tall, and can flaunt it all at once. Granted, if you have none of those things, you'll still be able to develop acquaintances and some friends down the line, but your overall quality of life will either be on par with that of America (or wherever you're from) or a downgrade from it. I wasn't rich, but I got compared to Ryan Gosling multiple times while there, so I suppose I'm more handsome than I give myself credit for
(I just need to lose 30 pounds and be lean again, and then I'll be rather set in the looks department
).
It's truly a shame what's happened to Poland, and I do feel that fver since the 2015 scandals in the Catholic Church, which their left-wing media spun to make them look worse and more numerous than they actually were, the youth, being the sheep they are, went from being Folk Christians like their parents to ardent Secular Leftist Hedonists like Americans in my home state of California. Hell, there's even graffiti in Krakow that says "Eat The Rich", which is something I used to only see in San Francisco 10 years ago. What also doesn't help with this just how much global attention Poland has gotten via social media, specifically YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, and X (Twitter), which have inflated the egos of young Poles beyond belief since 2022.
Speaking of which, I was in Warsaw back in 2022, and I shit you not, I went by the Soviet Memorial Cemetery, and the monument at the center of it had a picture of George Floyd resting on it... That's not even mentioning how much immigration from Africa, India, and other non-European countries has been increasing in recent years. Sure, it's remained lower than say, Croatia, which has now 8-11% of its population being non-European, but given the direction of Poland, you can most certainly expect it to go the same route, and as a matter of fact, once Western Europe gets its act together
(which I think it will, or at least, Germany, Britain and France will, while Denmark, Spain, Belgium and especially Ireland are going to continue circling the drain), I GAURANTEE you that Poland, Czech Republic, Croatia, the Baltic States, Slovenia and Montenegro will all be far more degenerate and woke than Western Europe and the United States ever were at their peaks. They'll be right up there with Canada. In fact, Poland is basically Canada from 2010/2012, so it checks out.
I'm glad as hell I don't live there anymore. I'll visit because I have friends there, but you cannot pay me to live there again. I'd rather live in Slovakia, which is the last Slavic country besides Russia, Belarus, Bosnia, and to a lesser extent, Macedonia and Serbia
(outside of Belgrade + surrounding areas), to be remotely Christian and traditional, including among the youth.
