The text on the pastry is literally Polish. It is a pastry in a Polish bakery. You don’t need to be outraged on behalf of someone else.
Comment on A Polish jalapeño pastry
sprite0@sh.itjust.works 1 day agothe ‘joke’ is that they are spicy (jalapeno) because poles are stupid. unless there’s some interpretation that isn’t really shitty that i’m overlooking it’s a classic right wing ‘joke’.

Ah that makes sense. I thought maybe the jalapeños were inside or something, but honestly your explanation is more likely and I’m just kind of a dumbass

I took thought it was actually jalapenos on the inside and wondered why wasps would be attracted if it was spicy and not sweet

Yeah, I also was like dang, I didn’t know wasps were attracted to jalapenos, that is interesting! Some days I am dumb

Fuk me. I’m of slavic descent and have heard a lot of polish jokes, but I had no idea what was going on here. Thanks for the explanation.

Ah lol I wouldn’t have viewed this as a “stupid poles” joke because iblack the context and have often called food with bees on them spicy.
But, if it’s a thing, I guess it’s a thing.
