The Polish literally believe they are going to become an empire.
It’s dumb.
Firstly, if you want to be an empire, you have to basically have both economic and cultural relevance. The only empire that was ever built on pure violence was the Mongolian empire, and that’s a very specific instance of a group of hardcore rapists on horseback. Furthermore, the Mongolians just totally folded when they ran into a strong (and fittingly brutal) culture in Islam.
Actually, it fell apart before it became Islamic, but it was incapable of even holding together an identity because of Islam. It really fell apart because it was built on the back of a single man, Genghis Khan, who was some kind of serious force of nature as well as being very based and redpilled.
I don’t really even know if “The Mongolian Empire” should be called an “empire,” as it was basically just a war against everyone on earth that lasted until the Chinese and Russians had time to organize and push back against Hell riding a horse. You could really actually call this “empire” an “extended bandit raid.” Also, only Khan’s children were able to keep peace between one another, mostly by being far apart from each other. Once the grandkids took over, they just all started riding against one another, which is when the Chinese and Russians had gotten their shit together.
Whatever.
I’m interested in the Mongols, but the point is, classifying it as an “empire” like the Macedonian, Scythian, Roman, Holy Roman, Persian, Chinese, British, Spanish, Russian, Ottoman, or American empires doesn’t make any sense, so you don’t really have to make this exception when explaining why Poland can’t become an empire by just being unhinged and violent.
Secondly, the rules have changed. In the current technological era, where issues of living space have been solved by heavy urbanism, and resource scarcity solved by technology, as well as global communications networks and very large military alliances, which are polar, there is no way to really expand your borders. The former USSR is the only place where this is possible, because those borders are still in flux, because the Soviet Empire only collapsed Last Thursday.
Poland is maybe sort of kinda a part of that, given that they were under communism, and if Putin’s Russia collapsed, maybe they could invade and ethnically cleanse Kaliningrad. I guess it’s also possible they could at some point send “peacekeepers” into Galicia and then I guess… what? What is the plan here? Move their own people in and try to ethnically cleanse the place Why do they even want this land? What will be accomplished, other than a massive headache? They don’t need more land. Any Pole can go on Google Maps and see how much empty land they already have.
Again, in the modern era, you don’t need more land.
If there is a solar flare that destroys all digital technology, then maybe that fact will change, but until then, we are no longer in the 19th century.
Maybe the Pole leaders need to be sent on trips to Singapore to realize that in the modern era, wealth and power is not based on control of land.
Anyway, I have a point here. I have a point.
Poland is a very conservative country. In the current reality, if you are a conservative country, you have to be friends with Russia. I’m sorry mean daddy Stalin hurt your feelings, Pole. But if you can hold a grievance for 100 years, why shouldn’t Russia still be angry at you for invading them in the 17th century. You invaded them because they were in the middle of a famine and seemed weak – literal “war of aggression.”
If you don’t get over this whiny vendetta, Pole, you are going to end up with gay sex and Islamic rampages. You can’t use the American Empire for your own purposes. This is stupid. It’s a deal with the devil.
It’s like that show “Midnight Mass” when the priest becomes a vampire, ostensibly to spread the Word of God.
(I really liked the show, by the way, and think it brought up a lot of good philosophical questions – despite the retarded blue balls ending, where the writer/director refused to commit to a Christian or Atheist message and instead just flopped around like some idiot beached fish.)
I know we keep hearing about “multipolar,” but that is really just a way to communicate that under a Chinese system, nations will not have things forced down their throats like under the American system.
In reality, we have two poles now, and we are likely going to only have one – in China – by the middle of this century.
You are on a sinking Anal Boat, Pole.
