According to the latest police data, the number of hatred crimes against Ukrainians increased by over 66 percent.
More and more crimes against Ukrainians. Disturbing police data
This shows the face of Polish society, which increasingly chooses contempt alternatively of empathy, and hatred alternatively of reflection.
As Michał Olszewski writes, Polish society "was easy caught on an anti-Ukrainian journey prepared with emotion, gossip, delusions and Russian propaganda".

That's a good sentence. But it would be even more accurate to add: it could be caught due to the fact that it wanted to. due to the fact that it was convenient to shift frustration from the people straight liable for the problems (and for that there are Poles from blood and bones, from queue in the infirmary to mediocre preparation for war) — to neighbor, co-worker, bus driver, salesman with accent.
And at this point, you gotta call it a social pathology.Just a fewer memes, a fewer lying statements by Confederate Members, a fewer sentences about "speaking the Convention of Human Rights" — and more and more Poles feel that they have the right to hate. That it is the Holy work of a Pole.
I know that in Poland pathology is traditionally tolerated, not cured. I mean, it stops with a "moral-patriotic" command, for example, that a wife in silence and humility endures a husband who rapes and beats her. And social “medicine” is not meant to be that her husband will halt raping her, but the wife will halt “taking the filth out of the house”.
The point is that if this "traditional" way of solving identity problems between 2 million Ukrainians and 38 million Poles surviving in 1 country, it will lead to ruin.

The only solution can be the Polish strategy of law, and the anti-Ukrainian behaviour of any Poles simply destroys this strategy — the foundation of the Republic of Poland as a state.
Attacking Ukrainians due to origin should know that the punishment for this will be ruthless and inevitable.
How good to know that there are inactive large Poles
No 1 but the Republic of Poland itself can defend it by a increasing crowd of self-appointed “patriots” for whom the meaning of “patriotism” is insulting, beating and, in fact, destroying the Polish state.
This is simply a very sad reflection before the anniversary of independence. Poland, one more time in history, has wasted an opportunity, and on its own request.
