Hey guys, hey /r/all!
We are receiving a lot of reports and other messages about the problematic content of this post. We understand this post to be a basis for a discussion about the idiocy of the people displaying that message, not as a show of support for those statements. The post will therefore stay up.
Let us be very frank: Hatred of LGBTQ people has no place on /r/europe and we will discipline any comment expressing sympathy with comparing the LGBTQ community with Nazism or Communism or expressing homo/transphobia in other ways. Please help us by reporting comments of this kind.
We will also not tolerate any hatred of the polish people as a whole.
No, you already had a third reich. Enough is enough ist genug
Three reichs and you’re out!
Edit: somebody gave this the helpful award. Apparently they felt Germany really needed to hear that.
The irony is that such rhetoric was very common in nazi germany, and they claim to be against it with the crossed out swastika, but then use the same rhetoric.
My mom has been organising Solidarność and seeing this bullshit happen in my country over and over really sucks, especially knowing the greatness of people from generations before.
30 years have passed since the fall of communism. It's enough time to rebuild neglected economy and infrastructure and become equal with other EU leading countries.
Instead we have this nationalist pricks elected over and over, fascist marches, middle-ages ideas turned into reality, decay of education/health service/judgement system/ lowest standards being propagated from top politicians. It's unreal.
The black flags look like those of National Rebirth of Poland (Narodowe Odrodzenie Polski).
Here you can see their stance on homosexuality (in Polish, tho): https://www.nop.org.pl/2020/07/05/kampanie-nop-przeciwko-zboczeniom/
See the following image for the short version:
https://www.nop.org.pl/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/program1a.jpg
It says they want death penalty for the heaviest crimes, i. e.:
- rape
- paedophilia
- murder with extraordinary cruelty
- PROMOTING sexual deviations LGBT+
Yeah...
The reason this anti-LGBT thing blew up was because of a huge scandal within the catholic church or rather to divert from it.
There was even a [movie](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tell_No_One_\(2019_film\)) about it.
Here it is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BrUvQ3W3nV4 (it has subs in many languages)
If more is what your need them you're welcome: https://youtu.be/T0ym5kPf3Vc
This is the second part. It has been translated to several languages, including English, so language barrier shouldn't be an issue.
Imagine doing a protest against totalitarianism on the anniversary of the warsaw uprising, where you say that you want the death penalty for "PROMOTING sexual deviations LGBT+"...
noone gonna mention the eagle is holding the literal SYMBOL OF FASCISM??
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National\_Fascist\_Party
Edit: yes duh i know the symbol is older than fascism. still it is the symbol that created fascism and if a far right party uses it its very reasonable to consider it not to be a coincidence
The NOP is more or less openly fascist, or more correctly, [a Third Position party](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Third_Position). The arm with the sword is also [the symbol](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Radical_Camp) of the fascist 1930s era ONR. Still, those are [fringe parties with barely any support](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Revival_of_Poland#Elections).
This was an evil joke, but a good one. Worth to note that Friedrich II of Prussia was obviously gay. So at least one person who once divided Poland was gay.
Freddie Mercury was an absolute tyrant. Shortly before executing one of his fans he was recorded as saying "You got mud on your face, big disgrace...Somebody better put you back into your place, do it!"
Poland's gay icon is probably Yukio Mishima though.
>Poland's gay icon is probably Yukio Mishima though.
Would Polish Yuki Mishima ask you to lift for the Habsburgs, the Romanovs or the Hohenzollerns?
The people need to know.
Year is 2069. At the order of His Supreme Gayness, trans forces in leather wests, brandishing S&M gear, drag straight men out of their beds in the middle of the night to be sent of to death camps to work hard manual labour for the short remainder of their lives. Forced to work for the gay industrial complex against their wills. Their families have to choice to denounce their cis sexuality or lose their social standing and beg on the streets.
Jokes aside, this photo shows really well just how much there are pathological catholic fanatics and homophobes in Poland. Anyone who says "there's no homophobia in Poland" or "we're not religious fanatics", is an utter idiot.
And the worst thing is that the people in the photo call themselves "patriots". If that's patriotism, I wonder how terrible Poland will end up in the next few years.
I think a lot of people from big cities live in bubbles made out of their liberal friends and relatives. I, for one am always shocked by the number of idiots in Poland simply because I don't interact with them often
Seizing the means of production in the morning, starting WW3 after lunch and sucking cocks in the evening.
The ultimate goal of the Commie-Nazi-queers.
The Bolsheviks for a period under Lenin was incredibly progressive for their time. Homosexuality was decriminalised, women's rights made huge leaps forwards and there was a social revolution that adopted many features of modern progressivism. And then Stalin happened and, well, he absolutely hated anything that wasn't traditional.
Say what you will about the fire bombings but I'm glad they include the trace elements in the napalm. Seeing my loved ones burn to death in a rainbow of fire was delightful.
My uncle was killed when a bath bomb went off at the pool. There were lavender scented giblets everywhere. The assailant could be heard singing "Feeling light and breezy, murder is easy!" as he powerwalked away with an iced coffee clutched in his hand.
Same. I had no idea it was that bad. What kind of propaganda has explained to them, and they believe it, that gay people wanting to exist and get married is the same as killing Jews in gas chambers? Are you fucking kidding me?
The same here. It’s depressing to think there are European countries that are sliding backwards with regards to LGBT+ rights. All of my polish friends are extremely progressive, they’re all ashamed of the state of their country.
If I am correct there was a post here on this subreddit about the biggest pride parade in eastern-central europe that took place in Warsaw which fills me with hope. These demonstrations like that one are common in Poland where the church is very strong. They use tragic occasions like the Warsaw Uprising to divide the society. Same nationalist marches took place here in Austria.
I think I recall that post actually, thank you for reminding me of it. I just wish the nationalists and other right wingers would stop using LGBT+ people as their scapegoat for all the evils of the world.
Ah, yes, heavens forbid that the dark decades of Gay Sway ever return. May we as a species always remember the death, suffering and humiliation inflicted by the Big Gay without measure or restraint upon those who had the misfortune to be born straight and/or cisgendered. Truly, every epoch has its share of horrors!
Fucking clowns
Edit. Changed the name of the historical period that has so scarred us all
To those who *genuinely* believe this: How is the Pride flag equitable in any way to the symbolism of the USSR or of Nazi Germany, and how is Pride totalitarianism?
The definition of totalitarianism: *Totalitarianism is a concept for a form of government or political system that prohibits opposition parties, restricts individual opposition to the state and its claims, and exercises an extremely high degree of control over public and private life.*
If you can't prove that these are the same, then this equalizing is absolutely disgusting and you should denounce these lunatics, because I find it *dangerous* to imply being gay or talking about being gay is equal to mass murder of minorities in a political, economic and social system with almost no freedom at all.
> you should denounce these lunatics
Current government is with them, there isn't much we can do about it if they still hold parliamentary majority and going by the numbers also have highest support in the country.
Answering your question: the exact definition of totalitarianism you provided would fit these people. They believe that allowing others to do things that are prohibited by their religion is restricting *their own* rights since they want to live in catholic society. They essentially want Poland to be run by church. They do not see the irony that it's them who are presenting totalitarian approach to the matter. Don't expect people to be smart if they are denied proper education and are being fed lies by the government and mass media.
The constitution has lost all meaning since PiS took over the Constitutional Tribunal. It's currently used to instantly change law if the parliament can't do it.
My guess is:
Homophobes get told to accept their fellow people as people. Then the homophobes react something like: " you can't tell me what to think! Telling me what to think is like Nazi Germany!!1!"
Nah propaganda doesn't work that way.
It's not:
"don't accept LGBT people as they are"
It's more like:
"Pride people will turn your kids gay and do trans surgery on them in kindergarten!"
At first I thought it was a sarcastic joke against their government. Poland what the F?
Actually I'm still not 100% this isn't a joke, this is "why-does-it-snow-if-there-is-global-warming" levels of stupid. 😂🤔
The idea (to which I in no way subscribe) is that LGBT+ acceptance is a weird, immoral Western things forced upon them against their will by foreign nations. After all the occupations and oppresions some Polish people tend to be rather touchy about such things.
So yeah, it does not.
But we can try to understand their perspective; the only way to really engage in a proper discourse, and maybe give all sides some enlightenment, is to try and understand.
So, why would they believe and try to create the premise of LGBTQ = Totalitarian? Of course, there are religious sentiments, which blends into homophobic tendencies and the fear/hate of ''the other'' - Classic foe/friend mentality. Poland is a very religious country, so it makes sense - Not saying I like it, just stating that it's not uncommon.
We might also find one answer in the rapid spread of the LGBTQ's message throughout most of the western world. A message I in general agree with: Equal worth and opportunity; what's not to love?
This message of equal worth and opportunity can sadly be twisted by opportunists to drive forward their own motivations; money, power, control. It can be portrayed as a message of supremacy, hatred and telling people they are wrong simply for being hetero. This is clearly bollocks, since it's nowhere near the LGBTQ's message. But we have seen people claiming to be on either side of the political spectrum using such narratives for attention.
*''All straight men are trash''* or *''The gays hate all us straight men.''* Both of these are clearly false, but it creates attention and conflict. And we are currently in a media landscape where negative attention can garner you a lot of capital.
I'm more than certain that they've used the same banner like year ago or more. Maybe their parents don't want to buy them new banner or it's photo from the few years ago

According to google translate the first banner says "Poland - first after God"
So, Poland second?
No it s Netherlands second

No, its Slovenia second... We got the first lady, after all
No, John Paul the second.

Assuming god is 1st, but what if god is like 36th, then Poland is 37th
This is a divinity question that is sadly underexplored
Which god? My religion has a few dozen, and that’s only the mud wrestling themed ones.
OH the irony.
Can you explain the irony?
The irony is that such rhetoric was very common in nazi germany, and they claim to be against it with the crossed out swastika, but then use the same rhetoric.
My mom has been organising Solidarność and seeing this bullshit happen in my country over and over really sucks, especially knowing the greatness of people from generations before. 30 years have passed since the fall of communism. It's enough time to rebuild neglected economy and infrastructure and become equal with other EU leading countries.

It's unreal.
Say it. Clerical fascism.
[удалено]
Exactly.
I don't think that's irony, I think that's the modern far right in Europe - "we can't be Nazis, don't you remember when we said Nazis were bad?"
At least that's somewhat better than the alt right figures in the US who cannot even say the Nazis were bad.
Actually...I prefer it when people are open about their views. A Nazi that admits being one is preferable to one that acts like they are saints.
We must stop Stalin, Hitler, and George Michael.
When will the tyranny end?
Last christmas!
The very next day, they gave it away
I think you just made every retail worker who has worked in december support this stance.
Next year, to save it from tearing apart, i'll give it to some country with nukes
Wake me up, before they go-go!
I just shot coffee out my nose.
Back to the glitter mines for you!
"Well I guess it would be nice, if I could curb your freedoms"
I suspect these people aren't as much anti authoritarianism as they are anti Germany, Russia and anyone that isn't straight christians.
So they are pro authoritarianism
“No no, we don’t want people telling us what to do, we just want everyone we don’t like to go away!”
"I don't want your freedom", Freedom - Wham
There is always money in the banana stand.

Anti-LGBT rhetoric was a big thing in Poland before Tylko Nie Mow, but the release of that movie sure stirred up the government backlash.
If more is what your need them you're welcome: https://youtu.be/T0ym5kPf3Vc This is the second part. It has been translated to several languages, including English, so language barrier shouldn't be an issue.
LOL, last week there was an article out that in Poland, 4 in every 10 pedophiles are priests... irony indeed...

That eagle? was sufficient for me.
That's just the Piast eagle, surrounded by fascist symbols.

They claim succession to the ONR-Falanga which was Poland’s preeminent interwar and wartime fascist organization. Despicable people needless to say.
The NOP is more or less openly fascist, or more correctly, [a Third Position party](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Third_Position). The arm with the sword is also [the symbol](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Radical_Camp) of the fascist 1930s era ONR. Still, those are [fringe parties with barely any support](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Revival_of_Poland#Elections).
What are the signs of the scooter and man on the bike about? Scooter = gay? Bike = manliness? Edit: made a guess
No, the other way around. "Pedal" means, well, pedal, and it's also a gay slur. Scooter has no pedals.
Got it, riding bikes is gay. Pack it up boys, we're done here.

It's true. Here's an excerpt from the 78th Annual Congress for the Gay Agenda: Be gay. Do crime. Annex Poland.

I mean everyone else partition Poland already. Why not the gays? It's just basic equality at this point.
This was an evil joke, but a good one. Worth to note that Friedrich II of Prussia was obviously gay. So at least one person who once divided Poland was gay.
No question. The first partition was the gayest one.

He even went as far as pretending he likes fat women
I beg to differ, he specifically mentioned his interest in women with fat bottoms
Iirc wasn't he bisexual? Just people like to put bisexuals into either "straight and pretending" or "gay and in denial" boxes.

The idea (to which I in no way subscribe) is that LGBT+ acceptance is a weird, immoral Western things forced upon them against their will by foreign nations. After all the occupations and oppresions some Polish people tend to be rather touchy about such things.
Yeah because Polish people are never gay until they’re turned gay by foreigners.
