      Those aren’t even particularly fitting stereotypes. The common stereotype for Poles is that they’re all car thieves. For Czechs… probably that they’re even more drunk than us but that’s just the default stereotype for everyone east of us.

      (And of course both of those are just cultural memes and nothing I actually believe.)

      I second this. I never heard anyone referring Czech or Polish people to apes and also never heard that Polish people are overly angry in any way compared to others.

        Polish* media seems to be very upset about Germany whenever it comes to football.

        *some. Probably the shittier newspapers.

        All the Poles I have met personally were fine people.
