Insanity. The people of Poland will be deeply regretful in time.
Well at least the next Behemoth album's lyrics are sure to be deep, angry and amazing. Nergal is going to be PISSED about this stupidity.

Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Civil wars are good, and easy to win
You forgot this: /s
No I didn't, I'm actually pro-murder and definitely don't think normalizing it will have any negative consequences
Luckily president in Poland is mostly symbolic. The state head is Prime Minister like in most European countries.
Everything I've read is they can veto legislation, act on international affairs, etc. Absolutely not largely symbolic unless a Polish person would like to correct me.
Especially a big deal considering the current coalition is very weak and can barely agree on legislation anyhow.
Yeah he can veto and has to appoint ambassadors. The previous president didn't do that out of spite, so we were unable to recall people who should've been fired. They sent out people who aren't ambassadors technically, but fulfill that role.
So yeah, salty rightwingers doing everything to fuck Poland over out of spite. What's new.
Can't win them all, I guess. 😮💨
Tough. I remember checking exit polls yesterday and Trzaskowski was in the lead, just to lose it in the late poll 2 hours later.
I'm not entirely sure what enticed people to vote for Nawrocki. Did they fear the majority having absolute power? We've seen the questionable tactics they used to take back the national TV from PiS. I haven't really followed polish politics since then.
The frustrating part is that the populace doesn’t seem to remember all of the other “questionable tactics” PiS used for a lot of other things.
Wouldn’t be terribly shocked to learn that Russia is leaning on the scales here, tbh.
