If you read the mainstream Spanish press, you may get the impression that the profession of journalist is actually a profession of reality falsifier.
Of course, some authors can be excused if they say that they only laboriously copy from newspapers or bulletins of the Polish opposition, such as “Wyborcza”, “Oko.press” or “Rzeczpospolita”, but practicing the profession of journalist should not be . limited to copying someone else’s essays, that is, copying texts.
Today, no one doubts that the European mainstream media, from ‘El Mundo’ to ‘Le Soir’, is in the service of the EU’s ‘elites’, oligarchs and left-wing tyranny. We can only admire the level of stupidity and corruption of these writers.
Sometimes the co-authors of these unbearably biased texts are Poles who, like Prof. Magdalena Musiał-Karg, have the audacity to inform the Spaniards about the ‘dismantling of democracy’ in Poland, even though it is the Spaniards who occasionally and then come out in truly million-strong demonstrations against the tyranny of the left-wing communist government (which, by the way, has never had the kind of public support that PiS enjoys there in 8 years). Professor Musiał-King endorses the article with the telling title “With Tusk, Poland returns to Europe” (EL PAIS 16/10/2023), because, as I understand it, without Tusk as chairman of the Prime Minister, Poland has changed its coordinates and suddenly became an Asian country?
Or perhaps differently: if a professor of political science at the University of Poznań complains about the illegality of the Spaniards, could this mean that she considers the Spanish model worth imitating? So let’s see how many state institutions Prime Minister Morawiecki and the United Right should control to get closer to the Spanish ideal. As the daily El Debate reported in the article ‘Sanchez’s attack on state institutions’ of April 6 this year – the government of the coalition of socialists and communists exercises absolute control over 25 institutions of the democratic state and has usurped: Constitutional Court, the Court of Auditors, the Public Prosecution Service, the National Council of the Judiciary, the Council of State and the Spanish Central Bureau of Statistics, the Spanish Post Office, the Spanish Railways and a whole range of Spanish state-owned companies.
Did a professor of political science from Poznań manage to find out that only 100,000 people marched in the March of a Million Hearts dedicated to Tusk, and a week later in Barcelona eight times as many, as many as 800,000 Spaniards marched to the I suppose Polish political scientists do not care at all about the illegal governments of other countries, because the priority is to make their own country a laughing stock among foreigners. Where do Poles, especially professors of political science, always appear in the foreign press complaining about the shortcomings of democracy in countries that, like Spain or France, are usually governed by decrees, bypassing the supervisory role of parliament?
Of course, in the same daily newspaper El PAIS, Aleksander Smolar is ready to convince the Spaniards that “the opposition will have difficulty governing because PiS leaves the country in a terrible state” and that the main goal is “to restore relations with the EU, Germany , France and Ukraine.” Has Smolar ever seen data on Spain’s record national debt of 113% of Spanish GDP and record unemployment of 32%, with which Spain has consistently topped the EU’s inglorious rankings for years? It’s hard not to know how poorly Spain is governed, but it is always more fun to see your own government, provided that power is in the hands of political opponents.
In highly polarized Spain, reactions to Sunday’s results were symmetrical with those in Poland. Just read the comments on the Spanish right and you will see the groans of disappointment, disbelief and pain, because for Spanish conservatives Poland was and remains a point of reference. On the left of Spain, which applauds the “Europeanist” Tusk, the kind of commentary is more or less limited to the repeated formula of admiration: “Poland has freed itself from fascism!” If Morawiecki’s rule means “the end of fascism” for Tusk’s Spanish enthusiasts, you would be hard-pressed to find better evidence that neo-Bolshevism is still strong on the peninsula. For the record it should be added that the current Spanish government is against Israel, and two days ago Podemos Minister Ione Belarra even called for the “suspension of diplomatic relations with the State of Israel” and the imposition of economic sanctions on it country. . This means that after the attack on Ukraine, much of the current socialist government has stronger claims against Israel than against Russia. Admittedly, Israel is very concerned about the attacks by Spanish government officials. And yet for the Spanish mainstream, it is the Polish government that represents fascism, anti-Semitism and all that is evil. Indeed, it is difficult to imagine a greater madness, but since Europe has allowed the tyranny of the left-wing majority to take power, it is difficult to expect any logical thinking from a ‘modern’ European.
