Not everyone follows closely and is curious in public affairs. They have the right to do so, although this raises legitimate objections. “ Do not be indifferent..., ” said Marian Turski. Not all have the competence to decently measure the consequences of decisions taken on their behalf. It is not easy to realize the meaning of the ongoing processes or the hidden actual meanings of the declarations spoken, the stream of words. We are lost in the amount of data, endless columns of numbers, forecasts and assurances. It was and is utilized by power and political forces aspiring to power more or little shamelessly. This is reality and there is nothing to be offended by it, and it is already completely nonsense to blame the democratic strategy for this state of affairs.
The democratic regulation of law under its constitutional strategy creates opportunities for effective protection against indifference and incompetence of many... These are independent institutions of the democratic system; free and equal democratic elections as an accepted form of succession of power, parliamentary, tri-division of power, including independent from politicians of the judiciary with the Constitutional Tribunal, the Courts and the Public Prosecutor's Office at the head, free media including publically available public media, local, professional and environmental authorities, non-governmental organizations, independent, independent academic, expert, free planet of discipline and culture...
After the assassination of the Constitution and the acquisition (full subordination) as early as 2015 of the Constitutional Tribunal by the anti-systemic, due to the fact that the anti-democratic state of law in Poland ceased to be in the content and form of the United Right. The road to slavery has been opened. It was created by 1 person, Jarosław Kaczyński, a hybrid of the emerging authoritarian strategy with elements built on the basis of the organization of the power of the oligarchy, in which all the above-mentioned fuses were either effectively disabled (subordinated to the will of the ruling party) or so weakened by the ongoing conflict with their independency that they no longer fulfil their systemic role. This is simply a process that extends to the politically prevailing social sectors in life, and the title "great pretending" is the actions of those who should argue it and pretend that it is not and act as if nothing had happened.
This “great pretending” is manifested primarily by escaping from the holistic (holistically) look at what is happening in Poland and focusing at most on the frightening multiplicity but nevertheless considered individually and selectively examples of iniquity by the power of the Kaczyński Party. And of the actual scale and actual scope of the consistently implemented process of oligarchization and introduction of authoritarianism in the pattern of nationalist populist, by the premise of non-democratic systems is the sum of these injustices, their scale and coverage reaching decently all areas of social life at the central and local level, in politics, media, economy, culture, discipline and education, in public services, in courts, in military departments, police, services...
These are not just individual issues, the amount and size of which is unprecedented before and passes all notions. This is simply a full assassination of a democratic state of law and the power of a group of people outside Parliament and legal control that brings our freedoms and rights to an empty phrase. This authority, as usual, is exercised by a fewer based on a mass of indifferent and/or incompetent, frequently simply lied to people who are incapable to measure the consequences. As long as the money is mammoth, bribed, indoctrinated, but acting and acting as dependent on the power of the subjects. Having added to this a group of careerists and opportunists, many willing to take advantage of the chance of combinationists and wisemen and hierarchical church, a faithful ally and a supporter of specified a model of power with a mass of subordinate and dependent faithful listeners of their orders have a real image of the situation.
Pretending that this is not the case, that we are dealing with a average in politics and democracy "play for power", where various parties compete with each another and arguing for the program fight for electorate and support that the media tracking down the affairs of power look at her hands and she and the public responds to this, that the elections will be democratic and equal, that the police are to guarantee safety for us and the National Bank of Poland and the Monetary Policy Council to stabilise and defender the values of our money, that Kaczyński is ready to limit his power and surrender to his people any control, due to the fact that it is in the interests of Poland and, in general, perhaps, it is simply a small right, due to the fact that this is the Polish society serving perfectly this power and is effectively utilized by it.
Unfortunately, this “great pretending” is common, it can be said omnipresent. He dominates politics, the media, the activities of organizations, associations. It is straight proportional to the scale of the ownership of the common space by the Kaczyński Party. How else can we realize the deficiency of the ability to unite democratic forces and prepare decently for the upcoming elections, topics and levels of free media, the silence of academic and professional communities, the self-handling, the deficiency of cooperation of NGOs... I can't believe they don't see or realize what's going on. possibly many, this strategy of submission and slavery truly responds?
Last week the guests of the “Yes It Is...” program were Bogumił Chrabota (Chief of Rzepa) and Tomasz Sekielski (Chief of Newsweek). The first 1 to draw attention to Andrzej Morozowski's program about threats to free media in Poland after another jab from the PiS for TVN, optimistically, with an expression of complacency on his face, smiling and confident, said that free media was us and us (i.e. in this case “me” – Chrabota) and we would never let it and there is nothing to fear. This moved me deeply, due to the fact that someway I did not announcement PiS' reaction to the words of outrage in the media about state-breaking and death on the border with Belarus, nothing changed the impunity of organization apartants after demascator texts in portals, newspapers, subsequent broadcasts "Black on White" and insightful and "brave" comments of primates most likely nobody even reads.
Licensed freedom, freedom on which nothing depends may be "minor" or "greater" but where this is straight or indirectly decided by the authority it has nothing to do with the state's respectable and protected right to freedom. The chrabota forgot about it. Hungary, Russia, Turkey, too.
Not much of what has already crushed me to the ground, Chrabota said, not without pride, in the thread of Macerewicz and the lie of Smolensk with an incomprehensible satisfaction for me, that he spoke with "many serious PiS MPs" and heard from them that the Smolensk subject in the PiS had died. They (talkers to Chrabota) no longer believe in the assassination. It's like he thinks they say what they think and do what they think or say... It's not naive. This is “great pretending” – universal, omnipresent. Hołownia and Kamisz besides know that the common list is simply a more safe and better way to remove the Law and Justice and take work for repairing Poland. They pretend otherwise.
If I were writing a novel, I might have put in a communicative with a character who is considering and checking to see if pretending that it is different than it is, it is useful, in any case a convenient form of consequence to what happens to her. But in social and political life, erstwhile we deal with large groups of people, erstwhile their future is at 1 risk, their safety and well-being is due to self-deception or playing with themselves, which I would call the possible of narcissism, is highly dangerous and very harmful. I have already written that it strengthens and perpetuates the conflict with our collective interest of power, gives them time and chance to take it distant from everyone else, but in addition it spreads the shadowy planet of speechlessness, lies, silence, which creates widespread anxiety and resentment. It encourages you to look for a hiding place and ... even passive, with a crooked face but subordinate and addictive.
