Notes from Exile: Censorship and Constitutional Breakdown Is New Polish Reality

In recent days, Poland has been electrified by continued reports of Prime Minister Donald Tusk’s attempts to unlawfully prevent President-elect Karol Nawrocki from taking office. These actions bear all the hallmarks of a constitutional coup. At the same time, on Friday, 25 July, the ruling left-liberal coalition moved to suspend the functioning of the National Broadcasting Council—a constitutionally mandated institution tasked with protecting freedom of speech and media pluralism. This action, too, constitutes a direct assault on the Constitution.

Since December 2023, Poland under Tusk’s so-called “militant democracy” has become a testing ground for globalist lawlessness and a campaign of systemic, unprecedented erosion of the rule of law. One of its explicit targets has also been the National Broadcasting Council, a body standing in the way of imposing liberal censorship in Poland. Given the country’s historical experience of communist dictatorship and censorship, the institution responsible for issuing broadcasting licenses and safeguarding freedom of expression enjoys constitutionally protected independence.

To eliminate it in practice, in 2024 members of the ruling coalition initiated proceedings before the State Tribunal against the Council’s Chairman, Maciej Świrski. The charges brought against him were absurd—including alleged delays in granting licenses to liberal media outlets and the failure to transfer subscription fees to public broadcasting companies. Yet in December 2023, public media had already been unlawfully and forcibly seized by the government, which prompted Świrski to deposit the funds with the court.

Poland like most of Europe is ignoring the will of the people and aligning with the globalists. This will come to a head before long.

[Alas Babylon!]

How is that any different from Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Spain, Sweden or the UK?

Far more censorship from supposedly “Free Europe”.

How very German

So Poland has reached the shoot their way out stage. But do does anyone have any guns?

[jimwatx]

This is just another good lesson as to why citizens should never give up their guns.

Poland has strict gun laws that require individuals to obtain a police-issued permit for firearm ownership, which is generally granted for reasons such as hunting, sport shooting, or collecting. Self-defense permits are more difficult to obtain, and less than 0.8% of the population holds valid firearm permits, with approximately 2.5 civilian firearms per 100 people.
