Stop. The whole thing is ridiculous from simple historical perspective. Poland was razed down, pillaged, 'visited', 'saved', enriched and whole host of other euphemisms over the course of its hundreds of years of various types of existence by a rather long list of conquerors.

<< when he says “not too long ago” in a discussion about a war that is happening literally today, he’s talking about 1943. If this isn’t a bad faith argument from an antagonist, then I don’t know what is.

Sigh, it is not bad faith. If anything, it is bad faith to pretend past did not happen.

Nobody is pretending this didn’t happen. Least of all the Ukrainians.

They literally celebrate the group that did it, tofl this day. Zalensky recently had a medal/award rescinded by Poland because of it.

Please assume that the people you are talking to you are not ignorant.

In this case, I believe I am substantially more up to date with both Ukrainian and Polish politics than you are. From your comments, it appears your knowledge on the topic is superficial at best.

[iugtmkbdfil834]

Hmm, lets assume you know more than anyone on this board regarding Ukrainian and Polish politics ( you may well do that ). But this only confers knowledge upon you, but not, for lack of a better term, wisdom and understanding. I do not suggest I am a paragon of the latter ( or the former for that matter ), but I know just enough to know evasion ( 'Nobody is pretending this didn’t happen. Least of all the Ukrainians.' ), when I see one.

I'm not assuming you are ignorant. More like wrong, or misinformed, or corrupt, or an enemy of good people, or stupid.
