The word “violence” is simply a combination of 2 words: “predominance” and “power”. due to the fact that force is an act that uses the advantage and the strength to impose on individual its will, forcing them to act against the interests of a individual or a social group.
The most characteristic features of force are intent – due to the fact that it is intended – and the imbalance of forces. In specified a relation 1 side has a clear advantage over the other.
State authorities manage structures of strength, finance, propaganda, etc. with a powerful advantage over individual citizens. In democratic societies specified as Switzerland, authorities represent their citizens and their interests. Democracy is the regulation of the majority, and a number seeks compromise and seeks a majority. In quasi-democratic states, power imposes its will on its citizens, forces them not only to follow the state-imposed rules, but besides blocks freedom of expression through censorship, frequently called the brazen "fight against hatred speech" and block access to sources of information another than "only right".
In quasi-democratic states, power imposes the only correct communicative – who is simply a friend and who is an enemy – and how political events should be interpreted. The main tv shows are to talk with 1 voice and sow unilateral propaganda. Criticism or an effort at nonsubjective speech are blocked, not allowed to be widely transmitted, and frequently even criminalized. The largest Polish-language web portals compose the same, equally and subjectively interpreting events. frequently articles are published in a abroad language, and we are excited by abroad interests, national colours. Bilingualism is introduced, it supports abroad cultures (e.g. German or Ukrainian) – although the rights of the Polish number in Ukraine are gradually restricted – and Germany has stopped officially recognising Poles as a national number in their country. Meanwhile, in Poland hundreds of millions of PLN were spent to support German culture, to learn language, and a German number has its typical in the Sejm.
Three years ago, Polish readers could compose their comments and reflections, discuss with authors of articles or another readers on the biggest web portals. About 2 years ago, censorship was introduced. The Censors called “independent verifiers” threw out independent statements, incompatible with the “government line” and political correctness. And for about a year or so, this anticipation of limited speech has been abolished. Under subjective, frequently lying articles about controversial content, and on controversial topics you cannot place comments on the biggest portals at all, there is no specified method possibility. 1 must read and accept the only fact revealed to us by power or abroad institutions.
In quasi-democratic countries, frequently means of mass communication belong to abroad corporations.. They represent the interests of another countries, institutions or companies. For example, in our country, the 2 biggest televisions usage the same coin that we can call the "interest of the West". But 1 side of the coin is primarily American interests and the another side is German (read “EU”). The website of the oldest Polish political weekly "Myśl Polska" has been blocked for over half a year. Access to information is blocked. For example, the Canal Plus platform removed all Russian tv programs a fewer months ago, so that Polish viewers during the Russian-Ukrainian conflict would not have access to alternate sources of information. The viewer is to watch only what the power allows – and to think as the authority commands. I called Canal Plus, where I was informed in the recorded conversation that the government had ordered them to remove Russian programs.
A fewer months ago, in the Ministry of Justice, projects were created to punish those who spoke against government propaganda. Punishments would be imposed even on those who do NOT KNOW if they supply any information that might be useful to the enemy. At the same time, the authorities push into the heads and force citizens to realize who the enemy is – and who is simply a friend. Interestingly, 2 states have been declared enemies, who have no claims against Poland (Belarus, Russia), and the closest friends are those who claim against us (US, Israel or Ukraine). Even the grammar of Polish is artificially changed and adapted to Anglo-Saxon. We no longer go to Slovakia, Hungary, Ukraine... due to the fact that in "Hamerican" it is "Ukraine" – so we go to Ukraine, Hungary, Slovakia... The massacres in Poles were so not “in Ukraine” – only “in Ukraine” (in Ukraine). due to the fact that that's not Polish for us to say our bosses from overseas.
At the end of a fewer days ago, the exhibition of the historical book at the Royal Castle in Warsaw was not allowed to participate in respective patriotic publications, specified as the publishing home “Vektory” from Wrocław. Universities 1 by 1 consider their most crucial historical function to be the promotion of sex and studies associated with this. The openness of discussions and views is eliminated, everyone is to have the same worldview: neoliberal and leftist. Prominent scholars who express disagreement in political, economic, worldview issues – another than the authoritative line – are being harassed, suspended in conducting classes. Professors Bielenia, Cimka, Zapalowski can be mentioned. This is not only an action against them, science, the nation. This is not only the persecution of these scholars – but besides the intimidation of others to keep them from going beyond the ranks.
Science is lying. Even medicine. Doctors who talk differently (e.g. in the covid case) than in the authoritative propaganda case – they close their mouths, receive licenses, execute processes. The largest social media serves anti-national ideology, employment censorship, blockages, close accounts of reasoning and writing independently. Youtube regularly eliminates channels of people speaking independently, Facebook blocks or terminates accounts, for example, he liquidated the account of 1 of the most celebrated and independent Polish politicians – even though he had almost a million people “watching” him. It's a fake story. He praises his enemies, spits on his allies. The heroes are erased from it, specified as Polish soldiers liberating our cities and villages at the end of planet War II. Those who shot another Poles are frequently glorified.
At the very beginning of this paper, I wrote that force is an act that uses the advantage and strength to impose its will or point of view on someone, forcing them to act against the interests of a individual or a social group. Whether to drag Poles into not their war, to force them (us) to buy coal or gas at horrendous prices, to give abroad countries tremendous sums of money obtained from Polish taxpayers... Tens of billions of gold... Weakness of defence by disposing of arms (e.g. a 100 twelve tanks) erstwhile refusing to accept arms from a NATO associate (the Patriot rockets offered by the Germans) ... construction of war hubs, maintenance and sponsorship of opposition from neighbouring countries, backing foreign-language tv fighting power in their countries... Is it in Poland's interest?
Through the content of my speech, I am trying to show that the blocking and information manipulation by the state authorities is simply a form of force applied to Polish society. I believe that “the navigators of Polish politics” (as the ruling in Warsaw calls 1 of the best geopoliticists Sikulski) are primarily active in the interests of the alleged West, its governments, corporations and corporations. The authorities of the erstwhile word of office were more closely linked to Germany and the EU, and present to the United States. There were created peculiar organizations, banks (World Bank), foundations (Sorosa, Rockefeller, etc). The American Central Bank FED is simply a private company owned by respective families. The people behind these financial institutions decide in the areas of their influence on the presidents of states, prime ministers, chancellors, ministers, organization leaders, another decision-makers. They operate through their representatives, and then through finance, political references, promises, threats, and mainly through the media – which are almost in their hands. The full luck of the 3 richest Americans: Elona Musk, Jeff Bezos, and Bill Gates, over 2 years the pandemic has grown more than twice and is now worth about $1 trillion.
Individual Western, primarily American global corporations are richer than most countries in the world. The biggest obstacle to their action are the states, their borders, nations guarding the interests of their countries – patriotism. Hence sponsorship of "open" universities, foundations, training, etc. They are meant to destruct conventional values, patriotism, traditions, roots, religions. Hence the large migrations to Europe from Africa and Asia, hence the economical push of Poles from Poland (emmigration) and the bringing of millions of immigrants, who are given greater privileges – than Polish citizens, theoretically hosts in their own country. The nations are to be mixed, there is to be a uniform mush consisting of people reasoning equally, playing the same computer games, buying the same phones, listening to the same music, etc. Then there will be no state patriotism, national egoisms, Chinese competition against the West will be reduced.
In the West, force in the form of an information blockade has been applied for many years. And these standards are imposed on Poles while telling us that, due to the fact that we are part of the West, we should adapt to them. We are told that the present neoliberal West is simply a pattern and a refuge of freedom. But these are just pathetic appearances of freedom based on lies, manipulation and information blockade.
Let us effort to defend ourselves, for example, in order to have a clean conscience towards our people, those from the past, present and future. That's why we started the PATRIA Association.
