A fewer months ago there was any crazy conference in the palace in Jabłonna close Warsaw. There were Russian parliamentarians there who wanted to overthrow Russian president Putin. They were so marginal dissidents that they were mostly not even associated with Russian political experts. This was acknowledged by “Gazeta Wyborcza”. They were talking about any exile government and even dumber ideas I don't even want to mention. akin heces were made in relation to our second neighbour – Belarus. It has been reported that the country's “legal” authorities are in Poland. A fewer days ago a conference was held in the European Parliament entitled “Imperial Russia: Conquest, Genocide and Colonization. Perspectives of deimperialization and decolonization". It was organised by the faction of the European Conservatives and Reformists (ECR), in which members of the Euro MPs of the PiS sit. Anna Fotyga, head of the Polish Ministry of abroad Affairs and Euro MP Kosma Zlotowski, advertised the events. This confirms the thesis that the PiS-ers supporting the nationalism of various cultural and national groups, of course, subject to its anti-Russianity.
In all these cases, I warned that it was not in the interests of the Polish people or Poland. I argued that this is precisely the same as the support, from Russia or Germany for separatists in Silesia or Kaszubach. present we do not know how to behave more and more authentic national minorities in Poland in a fewer years. Words have consequences in global politics. Poland should stay as far distant from this as possible. Of course, the other happened. It's the regulation of the Law and Justice, if he goes to screw things up, they will.
Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov wrote a not wise, although understandable from the position of Russian word propaganda, about the anticipation of supporting separatists in Silesia. Kadyrov besides recalled that an yearly March of Silesian Autonomy will be held in July. He stated that all next time he attracted more and more participants. Which is not true, but is secondary. These are shameful words and anti-Polish for us. I was firmly convinced that this component would be utilized against Poland. And that's what happened.
It must be made clear that the current ruling Polish political orientation supporting nonsense about tens of oppressed nations in the East, fairy tales about a happy multiethnic country, about the construction of a fresh national identity and inactive with appreciation of Giedroycia's dreams – harms the Polish cause. It harms Poland as a national state. Their indulgent and insurrectional patriotism, and complete misunderstanding of the cultural distinctness of Polish people, make people who are Poles increasingly want nothing to do with the Warsaw authority. The misunderstanding of the specifics of advanced Silesia is very akin to that of the second Polish sanitation. We all remember Kaczyński's words about "the hidden German option" or Kurski's nonsense questioning the Polishness of Donald Tusk's grandfather. The policy of PiS leads people to identify Poland with the tumulturical and rampant policy of post-sanctional power and Homeland. It is worth to add here that many current governments have done to cut out many symbols of Polishity with Western lands – including advanced Silesia – due to the fact that they associated with People's Poland.
Silesia is, of course, Polish and should stay Polish. I am a Slave, for me it is clear that I am a Pole. I am Polish Silesian, so I have Polish responsibilities. I'm a Slave just like Korfanty, Ficek, Lompa, Safranek, Stabik, Miark, Damrot, Szewczyk, Ziemek, and Mitraga. I am a Slave just like the Plebe warriors of 1919, 1920 and 1921. I see no reason to respect the Silesian nationality as separate from Polish. Kadyrov's words are as bullshit as those spoken by the PiS. I see no reason to even start any discussion about any referendums. Anyone can feel what they want. Everyone can specify their nationality as Silesian, Katowice or Murckian. There are people who think that reptilians or elves are allowed. But this should not mean that the State should recognise it legally. Silesia is not an cultural identity, but a regional identity. I reject the whispers of those who want to be spokesmen of any fresh imaginary silliness from the West or like now from the East. That's what all honest Pole should do. I besides hope that the current government squad will leave as shortly as possible and politicians in Poland will take care of their country alternatively than playing the function of Christ of Nations.
