Jim Cramer "Polish Army During WW II" Archetype of Stupidity, Cowardice, and Chaos.
I wrote my book "Bieganski" because I wanted to do my part to tell the Polish story, and to counter negative stereotypes of Poles.
It took me a long time to get the book published. My writing was very controversial. I was attempting to publish a book in the very academia that relies on negative stereotypes of Poles. Once I did manage to get the book published, Poles and Polonians, for the most part, didn't buy it, didn't read it, and no Polish groups (well, *one*) invited me to speak.
I feel very frustrated at moments like this, when a national figure uses negative stereotypes of Poles to make a point. See story here about CNBC Mad Money host Jim Cramer.
I feel frustrated because I wanted to work on issues like this in my scholarly life - but I found no partners in Polonia. So I moved on to working on other things. And thus today's blog post, on a very important matter, is short. It's short because I'll be publishing an article soon on a completely unrelated topic. My editor believes in my work and supports me.

The Guardian Warns Against the Real Threat: Polish Neo Nazis
The Guardian warns humanity against the real threat to world peace: Polish neo-Nazis, here.
We Polak Nazis are mentioned only once, in an article so stupid I don't even want to talk about it. I just want to let you know that Polish neo-Nazis are out there, like Godzilla. Take cover.
Update: The author of the "Polish neo-Nazis" comment is Julia Ebner, a young GERMAN woman. Got that? She's German. She says the threat to world peace comes from a whole bunch of people, including Polish neo-Nazis.
Oh, Polonia, you lose the propaganda war every day. Please read and use Bieganski.
