Nie wchodziłem na X przez jeden dzień. Dziś po wejściu od razu na twarz dostałem litanię całego świata polityki po śmierci Wandy Traczyk-Stawskiej. Były paski, były czołówki, były występy czołowych polityków. Żaden z 67 zmarłych w minionym roku powstańców nie dostał tyle atencji. Każdy wie, że to wynika nie z jej zasług, tylko politycznego zaangażowania. Potem informacja, że Czesi chcą z najlepszego asa dywizjonu 303, Józefa Františka, zrobić Czecha. Czechem etnicznie był, ale uważał się za Polaka i na własne życzenie służył w polskim dywizjonie. Nawet pochowany jest na polskim cmentarzu. Na koniec jakaś typiara z OnlyFansa otrzymała od Ministerstwa Kultury tytuł „ambasadorki pamięci Powstania Warszawskiego”. Czniam to, nie wchodzę tu przez następny tydzień. Posiedzę sobie nad kawą ze Skanderbegiem. Albo zrobię Wam relację z Albanii. #Polityka #Historia #Media
