[Comment under "Poland's Catholic conservative President Duda re-elected"]
@WolviePL
To start of with: Media Polish State Media (TVP) is very biased. For example. Rafał Trzaskowski, criticised the plan to build massive airport tens of kilometres away from Warsaw, saying it would be useless, as there are already airports IN Warsaw that could be expanded, which the government doesn’t want to do, as well as a giant airport that was at the time being built in Berlin (it still is I believe) with which it would be hard to compete, as most connections would likely go through there. TVP made an article about it titled: „Trzaskowski nie chce 150 tys. miejsc pracy, bo mamy lotnisko w Berlinie”(“Trzaskowski doesn’t want 150k work places, because there is an airport in Berlin”). Do I really need to say more? My next point: Government’s Social Campaigns After Andrzej Duda was first elected in 2015 one of the first things he had done was implementing a program called “Rodzina 500+” (Family 500+). The idea of this campaign was to in courage Polish couples to have more children by giving monthly 500 PLN (112€, 127$, 100£) to the family for every child(basically all people under 18). Then there came Wyprawka+,Mieszkanie+, 13th and 14th pension, lowering the retirement age and more. All of those has led to drainage of the Polish budget, covered up by raises of taxes and printing more money. I think I don’t have to tell you what effect will this have on Polish economy in the future. Next:Corruption I am going to keep it brief and only give you one example. A few weeks ago the Polish government bought over 100k surgical masks for over 5 million PLN (50 PLN for a bloody surgical mask). The seller turned out to be a friend of the minister of health. Said friend is an skiing instructor. A FUCKING SKIING INSTRUCTOR. Not to mention that the minister’s brother turned out to be involved. To top it all of the masks turned out to be useless as they didn’t live up to the safety standards. No one was held accountable. Last but not least: Lack of tolerance. When I heard that the Andrzej Duda wants to change the Polish constitution to specifically make it say that Homosexual marriages are illegal I thought I was going to shit myself out of anger. Don’t get me wrong, I myself am a straight male and on top of that a catholic. Also, around to days before election, to many houses in my city, there has been delivered a letter from the Vice-President of the City. It heavily criticised the President for hanging a LGBT flag in the town hall. In conclusion I want to move out of Poland, believe me it hurts me to say it, because I love my country, as this country has no future. The corruption, regressive society, propaganda and an inevitable economic crisis has led me to this conclusion.
Edit: I forgot to mention how bad and corrupt the law system is.
Reply from Launch_Day_My_Dudes:
I understand and agree with your other objections, but why get particularly angry at discrimination against homosexuals?
They are not a particularly productive fraction of the Polish population (the Jews, Tatars, and recently Vietnamese have generally been beneficial to the country, but what good can come of some purse-collecting fashion queens? Indeed, they seem generally much less patriotic than any of those other minorities). They absolutely should not get tax breaks for marrying, since such relationships do not benefit the state in the slightest (so why subsidize them?). To be honest, many heterosexual couples should not get tax breaks or government benefits either.
