Okay, now that I've got the text of the law on hand it is clear to see that it is not unreasonable - it is stated that it isn't illegal to attribute to Poland or the Polish people crimes committed by the Third Reich IF what you claim is factual/is part of an academic pursuit/is part of an artistic pursuit/isn't a pulbic statement.

It's not illegal as long as the judiciary (now being rebuilt by the populist government) doesn't decide to hammer you for it. Definitely not the kind of security I'd trust.

Friggin Polish martyrdom complex doesn't mesh well with reality, unfortunately.
SUre, but the problem doesn't lie in the law, but in the authoritarian government that will abuse it, and if you're outraged at our overlords then you're years late, bub. Too late at this point, things won't go back to what they once were that easily anymore. You see, at this point there aren't any parties that are capable to get enough support to take control, meaning that the boiis ruling poland will stay for quite a long time.

Polish internauts are outraged by video authored by the Ruderman Family Foundation saying that the USA should end relations with Poland over Polish involvement in the Holocaust.

It's not about Polish involvment in the Holocaust, it's about the recent law that makes it illegal to "attribute the crime of Nazi germany to the Polish nation".

Personnaly I'm not sure which is funnier, but I definitely found the comment cringier ("This kind of shit is what caused the first Holocaust!") but then they're YouTube comments.
You're entirely correct. I guess I shouldn't write a comment whilst looking for my sides.

And that is all I can write without snark. See the video for yourself, I laughed my ass off. Don't know which is funnier, the underinformed and deceitful video or the salty bois venting their rage in the comments.

The more powerful/richer you are the more you are afraid of.
I am extremely sure that isn't the case, heh.
Oh, but when you're wealthy you suddenly realise those damn dirty plebs are terrifying and you must separate yourself from them. Now you also have property you must take care of.

The ultra-rich are very detached from reality at this point, which is why they don't seem afraid. However, all it would take to make an ultra-rich mogul's day worse is one man with a gun in the right place and time. I'm somewhat surprised and dissapointed there are so little attempts on the lives of the modern day moguls, considering they are largely to blame for many of the world's problems.

The western capitalist system is built on maintaining fear in the populace. Afraid of growing old? Buy this new ointment that will make you young again, etc. You're scared of losing your job and scared of the candidate that isn't one of your own. The more powerful/richer you are the more you are afraid of.

Is it really so surprising that meemboiiis snap when all they could ever hope to be is a terrified nabob?

Iraq didn't have a nuclear superpower backing it. An outright invasion would do much more than raise eyebrows in both Russia and Iran considering both of those states have stakes in Syria.

At this point I'm more inclined to believe that our beloved American overlords needed another liberation in the Middle East and needed a pretext. After all, chemical weapons are a classic for fabricating a good 'ole war.

I shall look into this Berklesmith. Perhaps he could also be made into an unwitting servant of the Tzar. I will try and learn more about him.
