It is difficult to distinguish between the two. Based on my two years in Poland (1981-83), I witnessed many manifestations of hatred for the Soviets. The memories of the Katyn Forest massacre were still fresh. And the Poles still believe, true or not, that the Russians were involved nefariously in the President Kaczynski plane crash in Smolensk in 2010.
Poles are not fond of the Russians and view them with suspicion. The reaction of Jaruzelski to Weinberger's statement that he was "a Russian general in a Polish uniform" should give you some idea as to how deep the division is between the Russians and the Poles.
What gets me angry are even some Poles that think Jaruzelski saved Poland from Russian invasion.
Jaruzelski BEGGED the Russians to come in, and they told him flat out, “Nyet!”
So he tries to sell Martial Law as saving Poland from Soviet invasion.
Bastard should have been strung up years ago.
But I've lived here since 2010 and am talking about now
They believe that the Russians were involved in Smolensk and I didn't believe it until now.
But they don't hate Russian people. The Russian govt YES they hate it
This has been my experience too. And then some Germans told me that the Russians are all peasants and not worth giving much thought too. I have seen overdone nationalism from Greeks and Russians many times.
Could be just they all have their issues. I am proud to live here with our mixed up ethnicities.
