Supporters of the Polish opposition intensely experience Jarosław Kaczyński’s reaction to Joe Biden’s speech, narrated by LGBT+ activist Bart Staszewski. In the recording, the PiS leader casually answers Jan Krzysztof Bielecki’s question about the US president’s speech: “He didn’t say anything.” PiS MP Radosław Fogiel referred to the whole thing on Radio Wnet.
What do politicians and opposition supporters in Poland remember most about Joe Biden’s speech? Apparently Jarosław Kaczyński’s opinion has been expressed, as you can see in the posted video, with a light tongue in cheek. Here’s otherwise well-known LGBT+ activist Bart Staszewski, who somehow got close to officials during Biden’s speech in Warsaw on Tuesday, recording the PiS president saying Biden “didn’t say anything.” The case immediately heated up the internet and public opinion, although its explanation seems very prosaic.
Staszewski stalks the president
The unreal Kaczyński left his villa in Żoliborz and declared to Prime Minister Bielecki that Biden “didn’t say anything”. Are you Kaczynsky? And what have you done for Poland? You have destroyed, divided people, your voracious appointees everywhere. What a pity…
– wrote Staszewski with his “grace” on Twitter.
Of course, unlike the angry entry about Kaczyński, Staszewski also posted a candy entry with a photo featuring Donald Tusk.
And who is sitting next to me
Bart Staszewski’s Twitter activity also elicited unflattering comments suggesting he is a hater responsible for the bogus “LBGT free zones.”
What’s the truth?
Another light on the whole “Kaczyński case” is shed by an interview with PiS MP Radosław Fogel, given on Radio Wnet. A former spokesman for the ruling party assured that the PiS president was eagerly awaiting the US leader’s speech.
The president, of course, also wanted to hear what the American president had to say. Unfortunately, in this confusion, we have not had the opportunity to discuss further. But I think Mr. President especially appreciates that it is evidence of really intense relations between our countries
Fogel said.
In the context of Bart Staszewski’s recording, the PiS MP decided that it was all some kind of desperate attempt to attribute intentions to Jarosław Kaczyński that do not guide him. It also aimed to cover opposition leaders’ meager dealings with Biden, who expected much and received courteous handshakes.
This recording and all the fuss surrounding it. Anyway, the recording, if I’m judging correctly based on who posted the recording on social media by a known provocateur, someone who previously made fake news about alleged “LGBT free zones”. After all, anyone who knows Jarosław Kaczyński sees that he says something in jest and tries to turn it into a subject, such a desperate attempt to divert attention from the first of these noisy announcements, our oppositionists, about how the town hall of Warsaw sets the details of Rafał Trzaskowski’s meeting with President Biden, and then the air went out of that balloon. It turned out to be just a wall, a handshake and a photo
said the PiS MP.
To accusations that Jarosław Kaczyński did not want his picture taken with Joe Biden, Radosław Fogiel replied that the PiS leader takes politics more seriously than opposition leaders – he focuses on real activity, not celebrity publicity.
President Kaczyński does not have such ambitions as our opposition leaders and believes that real politics is something important, and he is not particularly interested in pushing himself to the photo wall. Because I have indeed noticed that this is the second direction of the attack by the opposition and the media that support it. That is, some attempts to even out this situation. And Jarosław Kaczyński doesn’t even have a photo. Only Jarosław Kaczyński or his entourage did not pump the media for three days saying he was planning a big rally. They did not seek a meeting between President Kaczyński and President Biden as this is the role of the President and Prime Minister
– noted the former PiS spokesperson.
The president realizes that politics is done in a different way, not by trying to get the public to take a picture and then sell it as a great success. The measure of this is that these meetings lasted 40 seconds per minute. Even the reports being made there, what President Biden would have said to them, wouldn’t fit into those 40 seconds
– added.
Donald Tusk tweeted, “Joe Biden short and blunt. Donald, we will defend freedom and democracy in solidarity always and everywhere.
I have no reason to doubt what Donald Tusk wrote on Twitter. The only question is why, since his opposition colleagues President Trzaskowski and Marshal Grodzki published a photo, he has not shown one. Well, maybe this is because of his incredible modesty
said Fogel wittily.
When asked if photos with Biden, or photos as such, matter in national politics, Fogiel replied that they shouldn’t.
They shouldn’t but like I said if the opposition has been trying for several days to beat this drum by announcing meetings well it’s kind of like I don’t know if anyone else is famously alleged visit of the then head of KOD to Mateusz Kijowski in Congress. It would be the leader of Poland and the representatives of the authorities would be censored. Well, yesterday we saw a rerun of the entertainment.
he concluded.
Tvp Info journalist Samuel Pereira also referenced the case, suggesting that Staszewski “twisted” Jarosław Kaczyński’s words.
Come on. It turns out that Bartosz Staszewski didn’t just mislead people about the signs of places and LGBT zones
Pereira wrote.
The tabloidization of politics in the world, as well as in Poland, is reaching a higher level. It seems that it is less important what is done in politics, what is said and what the goals of politicians are. Photos, celebrating one’s self are gaining in importance, and one has to get used to this celebrity culture in the world of politics. Perhaps the “Twitter” way of doing politics is related to the programmatic and ideological superficiality of politicians. It is therefore no coincidence that in Poland the opposition excels in such methods.
