Last year in May, after my release felietoneHe chose freedom A Belarusian tv editor asked me to give them an interview about the content of this column.
I refused, explaining that now in Poland proscription letters are being created like American letters from the period of Makkartism* (political actions, unscrupulous investigative methods, and creating an atmosphere of fear and suspicion in the fight against the "internal communist threat" between 1950 and 1954 in the US). Makkartism in Polish, was characterized in the weekly “Review” in articleRadosław Czarnecki of June 12, 2018 Makkartism in Polish.
Makkartism for a Long Time
"Havel recognized the communists as human beings, in Poland they were intended to be hung on trees alternatively of leaves. This is 1 of the “small” differences that show the sources of Polish Makkartism. He was born erstwhile the alleged democratic opposition began taking money from the CIA in the 1980s. erstwhile 2 obsessive anti-communists, R. Reagan and K. Wojtyła, made a sacred covenant aimed at sharing the US and Vatican influences of future Poland. The goal was realized, as symbolic evidenced by the cult of both people in Poland. Polish Makkartism, unlike the original, will not expire after a fewer years. It's going to grow due to the fact that no one's going to hazard getting fired from work or failing to postgraduate for inappropriate political views. due to the fact that it has been transplanted from the outside, has powerful powers – and is not just a product of the sick imagination of a group of native fanatics. due to the fact that Poles just want it. due to the fact that they must pour out their complexes, blame the imaginary enemy in the form of a ‘comuna’ or Putin agents. due to the fact that those who disagree will simply be afraid to express them. due to the fact that the only ones who do not gotta fear losing their occupation or problems at school are pensioners – and those just gotta wait and in a fewer years the problem will be solved naturally”. "Thousand arguments are irrelevant present – the universal answer is aggressive, right-wing screams, and more recently, interventions of appropriate ‘services’. So we have freedom of speech in Poland full of grace” – He preached a comment under the article.
Ukrainians monitor
In my column He chose freedom A peculiarly interesting phrase was its ending: In my subjective opinion, the justice Tomasz Szmydt He just chose freedom. On the another hand, the authorities raised from the ethos of "Solidarity", accusing a criminal of spying on a judge, propose that they beat themselves in their own chests. And as part of the above – carefully read the book Peter Schweizer issued in 1994 ‘Victory’ means victory. Secret past of the '80s world. CIA and Solidarity. Its author, an American, explains the small known in Poland the links of the then underground and the forming “Solidarity” not only from the CIA. Its content many years ago – inactive in the last 20th century – in detail, retailly, I discussed with a man, the authentic legend of "Solidarity", its creator. But earlier, in 2023, I discovered that to the choir, which “appreciated” my column of 2023 When the War, joinedOlena Koceruba from a squad of Ukrainians operating within a task called ‘Stop Lie’, to monitor public activities.
Ukrainian investigators
This squad consists of the following people: Koceruba, Anna Stozko, Bogdan Myronenko, Anatoli Kurnosov and Victoria Czerwa. They compose about themselves: "We Ukrainian journalists and analysts have joined forces to fight Russian propaganda and overthrow Russian fake news in Poland and Germany". They'll inform you., that they have tracked the following Polish media that regularly distributed Russian narratives in August 2023 (I keep the spelling of the original): C-z06.neon24, Neon24, Sputniknews, News-front, Freemedia, Myslpolska, diary of Politics, Marucha, Boomerangmedia, Oil in the head, TG Ukraine in Fire, TG dense Artillery, TG opposition Movement, TG Independent Political Journal, TG NewsFactoryPl, TG Antipropaganda, TG Qanon Polska, TG RuskiStatek, TG dense Artillery, TG planet Information, TG GrzegorzBraun, TG Warsaw Mermaid...
“Think Poland” on the mark of Makkartists
During the period rightly past, I was passionate about politics, in addition to the Parisian “Culture” (to which I occasionally sent hot topics from Poland), I read “The People’s Tribune”, “The Workers’ Tribune”, “Politics”, “The Young Flag”, “The Soldier of Freedom”, “Spins” (suspended in the state of war), “Currency”, “Radar”, student “Itd”, commonly available in MPiK readings. Systemic changes resulted in the elimination of most of these publishers. In their place was published “Gazeta Wyborcza”. In Gdańsk, first of all, copies sold in “Akwen” (it was a place in the building of present Solidarity) were set up by a long queue. People next to easy understandable information were hungry for a different language. due to the fact that the language in the magazines of the PRL period was a rigid, dreary language, which was included in the existing standards outlined by censorship. There was no area for apostasy. In order to decode the hidden content, you had to “have the ability to read between the lines”. The first immense popularity of the “GW” was due to the fact that it offered a different, simple language of communication, which reached the consciousness of most Poles. This language was a clear departure from the hard to digest rigid form of transmission from the PRL period. He gave simple, zero-one answers to complicated problems. In time, the “GW” clearly outlined its neoliberal profile, operating with the magical notion of “invisible hand of the market”, which was to be a universal panacea for the methodically ruined post of the Polish PRL economy during the building of casino capitalism in Poland. presently after cutting backing from USAID, liquidated by Donald Trump, is “playing for sensation”. The editor of the "GW", citing 1 of the members of the committee for examining Russian influences in Poland, wrote, among others, that the committee reportedly submitted a paper to the interior safety Agency (ABW) containing 25 names of persons suspected of “Promotion of Kremlin propaganda in the Polish Information Space”. The study is classified, but the "GW" in any sly, mysterious way reached it. For “GW” respective another Polish-language media fervently duplicate The subject. The goal of Polish Makkartism was a squad of people from “Polish Thought”.
Worse than in PRL
Comparing the way PRL informed the media (subscriptionally mentioned above) with the present 21st century transmission of Polish-speaking media, in my subjective assessment despite the escopal language (formulation of statements so that its content is suggested in a latent, indirect, veiled manner) of the 20th century press, the message was reliable due to the fact that it was not calculated for commercial purposes.

Makkartism in the United States was not just about seeking russian spies. Makkartism besides active introducing mood social threats.
