Polish farmers block rail links with Ukraine
On 18 February, Polish farmers completely blocked the movement of trucks in both directions at the international checkpoint Dorohusk-Jahodyn and disrupted railway communication with Ukraine, Ukrainian media reported.
Since 9:00 Kyiv time, Polish farmers have been completely blocking the movement of lorries in both directions at the Dorohusk-Jahodyn international checkpoint. The farmers are holding a large-scale protest on the access roads to the village of Dorohusk.
Despite the protesters’ promises to let perishable, dangerous or humanitarian goods through, not a single heavy vehicle has crossed the border since then. The State Customs Service of Ukraine noted that shuttle buses passed through normally without queues.
As of 16 February, Polish farmers blocked six checkpoints on the border with Ukraine.

I sit with a book called "Anti-semitism Without Jews" on my bed next to me while i am reading about an antisemitic far-right lawmaker extinguishing the candles of a hanukkiah in Poland's parliament (with a fucking fire extinguisher) on my news feed. With people going 'but why does Poland's parliament even HAVE a menorah if it doesn't even have that many Jews?' (because that's the important question here right? that's what we should be worried about here right? Way to show your asses lmao)
The same Poland that lost 90% of its Jews in the Holocaust. AKA the reason for the book "Anti-Semitism Without Jews" being written because of acts exactly like this but actually happening back during the cold war. Because of how baffling it was for an area with ~0.001% of a population to be Jewish to have such a high instance of antisemitism.
Fucking incredible.
How soon we fucking forget. How things change but the more they stay the same.
Anyway Poland, I'm so sorry you've got this Braun fellow to deal with. I'm glad to see, however, that y'all punished him with the absolute max amount that you could under the circumstances.
(By the way: The answer of course to the question about the menorah in Parliament is that for years, Poland has invited a rabbi to light a menorah in Parliament for Hanukkah because it doesn't fucking matter how many Jews you have, if anything the fewer you have the more important it is to have this kind of tradition because that is how solidarity with Jews fucking works. Because Poland is aware of its own history and is clearly trying to show it isn't that country anymore. The whole fucking history and point of Hanukkah is that you shouldn't let the light go out and stay out no matter how hard the goyim try to snuff it out, that you should let everyone fucking know that the Jews are still here and will continue to be Jews.)

🇵🇱 🚨 POLISH GOVERNMENT LIQUIDATES STATE MEDIA, OPPOSITION LAW & JUSTICE PARTY TO APPEAL DECISION
The current Polish government, under the leadership of Donald Tusk and the Civic Coalition, has taken a decision to liquidate the Polish State-Media organization due to political infighting resulting in a failure to fund the organization.
According to the Polish Minister of Culture and National Heritage, Bartolomew Sienkiewicz, he decided to shut down the State-Media organization due to the cessation of funding for the agency.
Earlier, Poland's President Andrzej Duda vetoed a budget bill that would have seen the State-Media organization funded to the tune of 3 billion Zlotys ($770 million).
Previously, Sienkiewicz dismissed the chairmen of the board of directors of Polish Television, Polish Radio, and the Polish News Agency, as well as their supervisory boards.
The opposition Law & Justice Party, which recently lost power as a result of the 2023 Polish elections, rejected the moves by the Culture Minister, refusing to recognize the decisions.
Although Law & Justice is now in the opposition, the party held on to control over the boards of the Polish State-Media organization, retaining a powerful platform in the central European country.
Law & Justice Party Press Secretary, Rafal Bochenek told reporters Wednesday that the opposition would appeal the decision to shut down the Polish State-Media organization.
“In connection with Sienkiewicz’s illegal actions and tireless attempts to identify party nominees in public media without the slightest legal basis, contrary to the laws and constitution, as well as court orders, we will soon send relevant statements to the prosecutor’s office,” Bohenek said.
“We will not allow them to subordinate public media to the party and limit citizens’ rights to information,” he added.
Currently, instead of broadcasting the usual Polish Television news channel, the TVP1 channel is being broadcast, which typically shows feature films. The Polish Television news website is also unavailable at this time.

The discussion around the fandomization of the I/P conflict is so fucking relevant because why did I just see someone in a discord for a reaction channel that reacts to musicals and cartoons suggest them to react to the Columbia ""protests"" with a heart emoji as if it's another episode of their favorite show and SIX other people agreed with that

Shoutout to my girl Magdalena Gudzińska-Adamczyk, a Jewish doctor, who was the only person fighting with a disgrace of a human Grzegorz Braun while he was using fire extinguisher on chanuka candles in Polish Parliment. In response he hit her and told her she is not a woman.

Polish PM: Ukrainian support represents one of Polish politics’ treasures
On Thursday, the Prime Ministers of Poland and Ukraine discussed the terms of Warsaw’s additional support for Kyiv and a solution to the current dispute over food imports.
Relations between Warsaw and Kyiv have soured after competition from Ukrainian agriculture and food products entered the European market, particularly affecting farmers from neighbouring countries.
Prime Minister Donald Tusk told his counterpart Denys Shmyhal in Warsaw that military, financial and humanitarian support would not be affected by today’s differences, but would also include diplomatic assistance and support for Ukraine’s prospects of joining NATO and the European Union.
“One of the greatest treasures of Polish politics is that no matter who governs, when it comes to helping Ukraine, no one and nothing will divide the Poles on this particular issue. We will remain together in this dramatic situation in our common history,” the Prime Minister added.

here's my take as a Pole and as an international relations graduate: nothing huge is going to happen so hold your horses and stop panicking. as tragic as these two deaths are, no one's gonna use them as a reason to implement article 5 and i doubt russia is preparing some kind of major attack on Poland. what i think is going to happen is Poland will push for a) more sanctions, b) more NATO forces on the eastern flank, c) (maybe) some diplomatic consequences but nothing major. and no, Polish army is not preparing to march to russia or whatever, please take anything you read online with a grain of salt and check your sources.

The world is fucked up

I don't get it either. Why my people must die when Russia has so much support? Because on its own there's no way Russians have numerous drones (Iran) and ballistic missiles which they shelled Odesa today. Where is justice? Make Russia pay!  Please keep spreading our voices and donate to our army and combat medics (savelife.in.ua, prytulafoundation.org, Serhii Sternenko, hospitallers.life, ptahy.vidchui.org and u24.gov.ua).

For someone who supposedly wants to “denazify”Ukraine, Putin sure does a lot of Hitler apologia.
This isn't the first time Vladimir Putin has been repeating this Nazi propaganda that Poland somehow forced Hitler to invade other countries. Putin has been regurgitating this same old Nazi rhetoric for years, but thanks to one of history's biggest useful idiots, Tucker Carlson, an untold number of tankies + other assorted ignoramuses will believe Putin’s revisionist Hitler apologia.
SN: Strangely enough, Benjamin Netanyahu also engages in the same Holocaust revisionism and Nazi apologia
Anyway, if you’re still dumb + gullible enough to believe that Putin invaded Ukraine to denazify it, or because of NATO, then please send me your full name, phone number, email address, home address, birthdate, ssn, credit card numbers and all of your bank details and social media passwords. I just want to help you out with something. Believe me. The same way you believe Putin :)

Damn, he even mentioned "Russian soldiers"... Russia was the second aggressor attacking Poland then...
Americans have really erased from the history books what Nazi Germany did to Poles and they are telling some Jewish version of history
