Playing a state in a time of global fun

Antoni Dudek, who has always been a Conservative alternatively than a typical of the "lib-left", has been burned for respective weeks in the fight against the candidate of 1 of the 2 largest political (and cultural, and social) camps in Poland by Karol Nawrocki, utilizing 1 of the most crucial arguments supported by his cognition of Polish past and politics.

He says in various ways: "By exercising executive power in specified a way that the presidency and the premiere will go to representatives of the 2 most conflicted camps, you will give complete paralysis to the state, even more polarization, even more savage conflict."

Two-headed execution as an alibi for mismanagement

The presidency and government thrown against each another as the ultimate, most crucial weapons of mass destruction, destruct the state, and each organization allows to usage in a full way the worst of the Polish policy alibi: "We would regulation Poland large if not for the fact that these others prevent us from ruling".

Of course, this alibi is always utilized by everyone. In the form of: “We cannot regulation due to the fact that we do not have all the institutions, services, banks, state-owned companies...” or “we cannot regulation due to the fact that we have inherited a state destroyed by predecessors” (the second argument is even utilized erstwhile these predecessors have not ruled for two, four, 8 years).

However, giving a two-headed execution to representatives of the 2 most conflicted camps, so that these 2 heads throw each another to the 1 throat, which is the Polish state – the veracity of the alibi about the impossibility of governing guarantees.

For example, it is simply a small more hard to regulation without laws, unless impossible, and the president will completely prevent the Prime Minister from implementing any laws prepared by the parliamentary majority and government.

Of course, for each camp, capturing at least a part of executive power is always the hope of getting the full thing later. "Today we are blocking the President's government, so next day we will have the government too". "Today we attack the president with the government, but shortly we will get the presidency and nothing will interfere with our governance."

Thus Tusk justified the pinching of Andrzej Duda (and earlier pinching of Lech Kaczyński), so Jarosław Kaczyński justified and justified the request for his camp to win the presidency.

Tusk to Lech Kaczyński and Andrzej Duda said, “Today we have a government, but if we attack 'not our' president, we will have a presidency and a government tomorrow, and we will yet be able to rule.”

Kaczyński spoke to Bronisław Komorowski in 2015 and says in his current presidential run to his people: “We must have a presidency, so that we will effectively attack and paralyze the government that we will later have the president and the government, and yet we will be able to rule.”

Clear the rulers without it alibi

At times, however, it is worth looking at a camp that yet has all the executive power, without an alibi “disturbing in the regulation of a political opponent”, and for this period the crew will settle.

Tusk had a government, and friendly president Komorowski for a full term. He could pass and implement any bill he had created and his facilities. Poles looked at him, assessed him, and removed him from power in 2015.

Kaczyński had a government, and friendly president Duda (who he himself anointed) for a full 8 years. He could pass and implement any bill, he could even break the constitution (or decision in the grey area of semi-constitutionality), due to the fact that the president agreed to it. Poles looked at him, assessed him, and removed him from power in 2023.

Motivation to elect 1 boxer as Prime Minister and another (or typical of another, due to the fact that I consider Kaczyński here as a real boxer, alternatively than Nawrocki) to be president, so that for the following years you become a boxing ringing or a cage of MMA fights, I consider it the worst motivation of elections made in Polish politics.

But what I know, my world, my rationality, is gone. Putin's rationality and Trump's fascination with Putin comes. The rationality of Braun and the highlanders choosing Braun for the European Parliament comes. There comes the rationality of late-liberal media clearing Trump with his fight against "progress" of unbinarity and transsexuality in prisons, toilets and force sports (which he is doing right) alternatively than destroying the unity of the liberal West at political, economical and military levels.

Also the closest presidential elections in Poland can be played in the logic of "fun", in the logic of the most brutal fun, in which the Polish state will be a toy, due to the fact that we live in the safest of worlds and nothing from outside or inside Poland threatens. Actually, they are already so played, and in this production we are besides happy to participate in My Media and My Journalists.

Using or wasting power

Of course, the question arises as to what the camp, having all its executions, uses its acquired power. To regulation the state or to paralyze the opposition so that the government can't settle. To mitigate or radicalize cultural warfare.

As far as this is concerned, I have no full assurance in either side, after all, for 20 years I have watched them both in power (sometimes full, sometimes only “partial”).

However, all the more reason why I like situations where I (and those voters who do not search in the Polish "funu" policy) can watch, measure and account for the camp from how he uses the executive authority he gained in the country.

And from this point of view, the top pathology of Polish politics is the situation in which the inability to govern or effort to usage power for inappropriate purposes can be forever protected alibi: “You cannot regulation me out due to the fact that Kaczyński (or Kaczyński's man in the Palace) makes it impossible for me to regulation out”; “you cannot regulation me out, even though I ruled Poland, in 2 approaches, almost 10 years, due to the fact that the government has always prevented me from Tusk.”
