And im Living 6 years almost now in Poland, and i never experienced racism or discrimination, quite the opposite. Im from Greece. And to think that to the rest of europe poland has this image of having low tolerance towards foreigners, while Germany and Britain are welcoming and accepting nations.

Try being gay or black/brown and you'll see Polish tolerance. I have heard numerous stories of POCs being harassed in clubs or on the streets where I come from (Silesia). The gays... Well the ruling party is making their lives insufferable all the time and they make it clear that you can be openly homophobic and it won't be frowned upon.

That's because you're considered being from western Europe. If you would be Ukrainian or anywhere close on "racist color chart" to Syrian then you would have completely different experience
