It linked to someone’s soundcloud track.
I don’t understand Polish though, so I didn’t understand how this is “PZPR Propaganda”.
Googling its lyrics, there’s not as much as a peep about LGBT.
So idk why even put LGBT imagery over it lmfao.
Did the PZPR/Polish Peoples Republic say LGBT Rights back in its day or something?
I thought the GDR was the first to do that.
Lmao why wait until that long to decide “hmm maybe men who don’t want to have kids shouldn’t be punished”?
The hell? I’m sure they could’ve just encouraged procreation through state programs and benefits rather than flat-out outlawing abortion like a social chauvinist…
What stigma? Is it about how the kids you adopt from the orphanage aren’t “really yours”?
God, ew. Also “unregistered relationships”???
Because Communist/Socialist/Marxist-Leninist thoughts are outlawed in current Poland, I bet.
Huh, interesting. I never thought someone would put the Progress Flag, a seemingly Feminist flag and an Islamist flag in the same room without some form of (reich-wing) irony, satire or mockery; given how one of them (most of the time) wants to destroy the other two. Idk, I haven’t come across any Islamist party or Islamists that genuinely advocates for LGBT and Womens’ Rights.
It’s always us LGBT folk, isn’t it? 😒 Doubly funny given that most Poles aren’t even Orthodox but Catholic; and the current pope didn’t show any hostility (if not giving indirect supportive statements) towards us LGBT people. But then again I heard rumors that the Poles prefer the pope before the current pope (so Pope Benedict).
First two answers are basically in various degree of relevancy: socially conservative countries being recently absolutely destroyed by nazis. And yes, in 70’s WW2 were still counted as totally “recently”, hell even in 80’s the trauma was still severe on societal level, only 90’s overwritten that in a large degree with a new one. Also 1956 is when the nationalists took power in PRL. Btw, abortion in PRL was legal even during that tax time. In USSR abortion was legalised in 1920, then delegalised in 1933 and legalised again in 1955.
It was never something really very significant, especially that PRL did a lot of good in that respect, but again, conservative catholic society, plus children and old devouts can be very cruel.
Idk how that’s called in english, when you have normal relationships and/or family but without legal marriage. In polish the term for both men and women is “konkubinat”. Colloquially known as “życie na kocią łapę”.
Not de iure, but de facto yes, plus actively purged from any public spaces.
No idea. Take note that this video and song is really the product of german circle, since that’s where everyone of them live, just that the main author is a Pole.
Polish catholicism is about at the same level than the worst orthodoxy about the LGBT. About the pope saying this or that, you would better take the bible quote “you will know them by their fruits”, and observe rather the hierarchy than the pope, and you would quickly see that whatever current pope speaks is just hot air. And polish church is currently basically independent from Rome anyway, if pope tried to use his power to significantly change the course of polish church (and for that he would have to purge most if not all of entire hierarchy even as low as parishes) they would just do a schism.
No, they tolerated Benedict because he was the toadie of John Paul 2. Current pope is being mostly ignored. JP2 was THE pope of Poland, and while he too didn’t had much of hard power here, but ton of soft because he was the product and integral part of that entire rotten hierarchy, and he did purged Vatican from any semblance of progressivism to install Opus Dei members everywhere.
Forced Desolution of the USSR and the PPR?
Wh- How? Certainly the USSR could’ve sent the NKVD to fend off the nationalists, right? But then again, the 50’s sounds like about the time when Khruschev came into power, and he seemed to have messed up things that Stalin and Lenin so cautiously built up.
I guess Stalin’s watchful eye made sure nationalists wouldn’t dare try to take over lol.
According to DeepL and Cambridge Dictionary, the english word would be “cohabitation”. So essentially the definition you gave.
Also that Polish saying was a bit funny, not gonna lie. “Shacking up to live together”. Dunno why I found that so funny. 🤭 (DeepL translated it to another thing though, “Living on a Cat’s Paw”)
sigh Stalin. 😔
What’s even the point to be cruel to the adopted and the adoptee 😒 I’m sure god (if they exist) would’ve liked it more from people adopting kids and raising them
when others wouldn’t. I swear, some people can be so unnecessarily petty and hateful.You’ll never see this ever happening with Fascist/Nazi nonsense. 🫠 It’s always communist/socialist theories that gets banned. Always. (Okay maybe except in the AES countries, but still)
Disappointing, I imagined the video to take place on Polish soil. Oh well, it would be just asking for trouble if you tried to film something like this in Poland, given how reactionary the place has become. 😔
If they’d do this, why do they bother to still be connected with the Vatican? lmao Is it because of John Paul II’s Legacy?
The Catholic Church used to be progressive?!
Economic shock therapy to be precise.
Nationalists in the PZPR, so relative. The conflict was brewing since the beginning, but when Stalin lived, Bierut had support to do what’s necessary, he couldn’t just purge everyone, there was way too much unprincipled ML in the party and government. but after Stalin death and Bierut becoming less active because his health deteriorated the bar swinged to the opposite side. Ultimately it happened right after the infamous Khrushchev speech, Bierut died in Moscow right after (possibly murdered, though not necessarily, for example Kim Il Sung was in identical situation but he got back alive and purged the revisionists in DPRK). After Bierut death the gradual purge happened against his followers and the nationalist faction with Władysław Gomułka took the power (Gomułka was housearrested for “rightwing-nationalist deviation” previously). Even Khrushchev was somewhat troubled with that so he came to Poland to talk some compromise with new government and while he managed to do it, the transcript of the talk is something to behold, Gomułka veiled threatened Khrushchev for concessions.
By then the revisionism was not obvious, outwardly everyhthing looked ok but bureocratisation of party and state followed and the next turn in 1970 brought titoists to power.
That is precise translation
That’s absolutely literal XD
Rare Stalin L.
Although it must be noted it wasn’t that unreasonable from the state sound of view, USSR was the first and only state to legalise abortion then and its impact on population growth was overstated by the statistics because lack of research (also early soviet statistics sucked donkey ass, Lenin was constantly complaining about that). Ultimately it proved bullshit but we only know this from the retrospect.
Biblical God seems like more evil version of Azathoth so figures a lot of devouts would be like lovecraftian cultists.
Of course, most famous example from Poland was when a legit court released openly hailing, swastika covered neonazi because it was “roman salute”.
That too, but mainly because legitimacy of 1000 years of catholicism in Poland and so on. As Machiavelli said, being established eases up maintaining the power. Schism now could uncover some very unpleasant for church facts, like how much people really care.
Compared to earlier church. John XXIII initiated some reforms and thus was progressive for example compared to hitler’s pope Pius XII. Or John Paul I who was pretty radical for a bishop though we do not know if he would be just like the “Hot Air” Francis since he was most likely murdered soon after election.
