Just six weeks in power, they destroyed the public media, paralyzed several key state institutions, halted several strategic investments, and sowed consternation and fear among citizens.
For a month now we have heard many words of confusion and loss in public spaces.
A classic example of a coup
People try to name what happened to better understand and ‘domesticate’ these events. Some call it “martial law” and compare it to December 13, 1981, others more cautiously call it a “state of emergency.” And this is a classic example of a coup d’état, a coup d’état, an encyclopedic term for a legal government that uses illegal methods to exert power. And it’s a left-wing coup. Because first of all he is fighting against Christianity and Catholics – he is already starting to liquidate the church fund.
Second, he is trying to corner conservatism – wherever it is: in parliament, the media, schools, non-governmental organizations. Because conservatism means order, predictability and continuity, it is the opposite of the Trotskyist ‘permanent revolution’ and competing in ideas in the name of ‘modernity and progress’, which has produced the worst possible results so far.
Third, oikophobia. And fourth, logophagy, the inversion of concepts and meanings. The authors of the propaganda messages of the “Tusk group”, still as a total opposition, resorted to a narrative method that inverts the facts or gives them the opposite meaning – which is intended to explain what cannot be declared or declared. Just like the communists, whom the Home Army leaders once called “saliva-smeared dwarfs of reaction,” patriots – “henchmen of capitalism,” and the bloody revolution – a “socialist political project.” Here too, if you fight for the law, you resort to lawlessness, you invoke the Constitution, you trample on the Constitution, etc.
Leftist DNA
It was of course even more brutal when the newly established French Republic, in the name of ‘liberty, equality and fraternity’, massacred 1.5 million Vendée peasants, approximately 111,000. clergy, plus 100 million victims of communism, and Cuba, Angola, Mozambique and Ethiopia still cannot recover from their leftist uprisings. But it is worth quoting Edmund Burke from the book ‘Reflections on the Revolution in France’, in which he mentions violence and rivers of blood in the name of the ideology of a small circle of elites: ‘revolution is an illicit rupture in historical continuity. …a nation is the work of many generations and none of them has the right to make such a decision.” And he praises the Polish Constitution, “not even a single drop of blood was shed in its adoption.” The left, then still communist, was always ‘for something’, but above all ‘against something’ – in the struggle against capitalism, the kulaks and the Zionists, it also slaughtered ‘its children’. Because the DNA of the left, whether it was France, Mexico or Cambodia, has always contained violence, death and destruction.
Nowadays, even though the proportions are touted, actions typical of left-wing coups are being carried out in our country under the slogans ‘constitution’, ‘rule of law’ and ‘justice’: the forced takeover of state institutions, public media, the National Public Prosecution Service, mentioning the Institute of National Remembrance and the Central Anti-Corruption Bureau, we even reached political prisoners! There is ruthlessness and cruelty, there is monkey malice – the force-feeding of Mariusz Kamiński and Maciej Wójcik on the eve of their release from prison, there are attempts to humiliate the opponent. And the arrest of parliamentarians pardoned by the President of the Republic of Poland, with active mandates, in the premises of the Presidential Palace, the symbol of the Polish state, will go down in the annals of post-communist lawlessness. After all, it is purely Lukashenko or Nelson Mandela and his African National Congress! A travesty of the title of one of Somerset Maugham’s stories, there’s a “red trail” here! Look how harmoniously the Civic Coalition works with the New (ha, ha!) Left and Poland 2050 – and in destroying state institutions, in stealing the budget allocated for social purposes, in promoting the ‘morning after’- pill and the liberalization of the right to abortion, and especially in attempts to crack down on and humiliate conservatives, Law and Justice and its voters. After all, this concerns almost eight million people, but the numbers of oppressed or eliminated opponents have never impressed the left.
Neo-Bolshevik
The Civic Coalition is said to be a centre-right party. Precisely! Even if we call Donald Tusk’s party and the European Union mandarins, the liberal left is a huge ideological overreach. This is the neo-communism of 2024 AD! When feminist, gay, LGBT and gender movements emerged in the 1960s and 1970s, colorful and seemingly innocuous, which somehow equalized opportunities for minorities, we called them the light left – as opposed to practical communism that we know, which was certainly hard left. . However, we soon realized that this remaining light was just a fig leaf, from which the same red monster peeks out. That it’s just another set, another set of the same show, dreaming of neo-Soviet imperialism. The same means breaking down state structures, tearing down society, breaking up the family and robbing our national identity. The arrogance of power and a complete sense of impunity.
This is the “industry of contempt”, this is the withdrawal of the HIT manual, the removal of the insurgent anchor from state buildings, the blurring of the truth about the Smolensk disaster, the same “red spot”! As a former prisoner of conscience who took part in the events of 1968, 1970, 1976 and the 1980s, I admit that I believed in the fall of communism so much that after 1989, and especially after 2015, when the rise of communism became the rule of law observed, I was shocked by the return of political prisoners. And the arrest procedure itself, in the Presidential Palace, home of the Head of State and the symbol of the Republic of Poland! After all, what Tusk and his people are doing today is pure neo-Bolshevism! And we must not underestimate the enemy. We must integrate, gather, act. Because no authority is immune to society, and at some point it breaks. This one breaks too.
Rights and obligations
I only feel sorry for Poland and the Poles… The state works efficiently when there are common values for the majority, not only the moral values resulting from the Decalogue, but also those dictated by democracy – the priority of state interest, the decency of the political class, their responsibility for the state. That also means the elimination of discredited politicians from the party and parliament – to this day in Britain a corrupt MP is removed from the party ranks by his leader and colleagues, “because our voters would stop to vote for us.” And this does not happen as a result of a court ruling many years later, but when the media draws attention to the case. So values. This includes state institutions that defend these values and an entire army of civil servants and state officials. Plus a civil society that knows its rights, for example service to the authorities towards people.
And here’s one caveat: a civil society is one that knows its rights, but also its duties. This includes the basic requirement to go to a polling station once every four years and vote correctly. On October 15 last year, this mechanism failed. The entire eastern region, Podlasie, Lublin, Podkarpackie, the birthplace of conservatism, has already learned its rights, but does not yet know its obligations – the turnout in these areas was very low. This is also homework that needs to be done.
Mafia rules
The governing coalition is governed by mafia rules, the local name is the ‘Neumann Doctrine’, and their voters are post-communists, including a group of retirees from former power ministries, plus promotion people, careerists and cynics. Apparently, modern, progressive Europeans, like Polish conservatives, are not aware that politicians only provide public services and should work for them, and not the other way around. The coalition treats its voters like a 19th century lord of the estate, plebeians of his farm. Of course, it does not happen for free: voting for “goodies”, past scholarships, a passport to travel abroad, a car voucher and the opportunity to shop at Peweks. Nowadays it is also about ‘fancy’, but also about a sense of ‘promotion’ and a symbolic share of power, a certain ‘decisiveness’, even if it comes down to blocking a few leaders of the opponent, several taking away opposition institutions and taking away the support of people who didn’t get on the train, called success. This cake is not for them to share. In the queue are the ‘elites’, writers and artists, part of the judiciary and some journalists, no different from those who built the Polish People’s Republic in the 1950s – the ‘sixteenth republic of the USSR’. Today the same forces, often their descendants, are trying to reduce the sovereign Republic of Poland to the status of a province of the European Union.
After only a month, there is a decline in the country – as after Fidel Castro’s attack on the La Moneda barracks in 1959, and after every coup that initiated the left-wing order. Justice is being replaced by lawlessness, democracy no longer works, pluralism in the media is over and the takeover of power continues. This coup – let us remind you that it is a legal government using illegal methods – is still ongoing. And its executors, Donald Tusk, Colonel Bartłomiej Sienkiewicz and Adam Bodnar, are in a hurry because they know it could end at any moment. For example, through street demonstrations by very nervous Poles. Poll results show that only six weeks have passed and 42% of Tusk’s government is already against it. And that the phenomenon has a growing trend.
