"In 2016, I tried to convince politicians that we need to invest in AI, because unlike the United States, we do not have a Silicon Valley that can take over this matter for the state. I talked about this, among others, with the then Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki, who seemed genuinely interested in driving the development of artificial intelligence in Poland. But when it came to the crunch, political difficulties arose, and the AI plan disappeared into thin air. Moreover, it’s very difficult to implement under our social conditions. As soon as a government program is created, from which – let’s say – 10 billion zlotys are to flow into AI, comments will immediately appear that someone is trying to siphon off public money. We have been through this multiple times in our country. For politicians, it’s a huge risk. Therefore, we should first ensure the right climate around artificial intelligence. People on the street need to understand that we need investment in AI just as much as we do for the CPK or a nuclear power plant. In this area, the media and opinion leaders have a huge job to do. As a country, we still have a chance to take on one of the leading roles in this revolution. But this train will leave shortly. We must act here and now." (translated)
We have never received such great support from you before!!! After publishing our materials about the lawsuit filed against the journalists of Onet by Karol Nawrocki, something extraordinary happened. We received thousands of comments and messages filled with support, kindness, and words of encouragement. This is an important signal for us that independent journalism matters and that we are not alone in this work. We would like to thank you for every kind word, every nice comment, and message. It means a lot to us. "Thank you for being with us, for appreciating our work, for believing in our journalistic independence, and for keeping your fingers crossed for us. This is very important to us, because in the coming years we will spend time in the dock as defendants or as plaintiffs in the lawsuits that Karol Nawrocki has filed against us." (translated)
"It was a hunting for the moon" - this is how a witness to the massacre organized by 31-year-old Ukrainian citizen Ihor M in Jarosław describes it. The pretext? A message that any civilized person would understand: a request to leave the social room and to wait a moment. The situation seems indefensible. And yet! I decided to conduct a small sociological experiment and compare the Thursday statements of the left-liberal salon with their reactions from a few weeks ago - when two young Ukrainians were insulted on the bus, or there was a scuffle under Żabka. It turns out that the "Warsaw salon" is undergoing peculiar catharsis. Just recently, they thundered about fascism, "Polish perverts," mocked "God, Honor, Homeland" and held urgent press conferences... and now... well... The whole thing in the first comment 👇 (translated)
I am on a trip and I see that there are more stories related to potential "borrowings" in the work of Jakub Wiech. Certainly, the publication by @OSW_pl makes a big impression, where the Center points to the use of their study. I also saw a new find by @TomaszMentzen concerning the use of an article by Paweł Turowski. I also saw a post shared by @sjastrzebowski from @ExplicitePL. It's nice that @K_Stanowski finally spoke out on this issue (rather critically) because thanks to the @OficjalneZero he leads, difficult topics are being discussed in this country. Is there anything else that has come up? If so, please drop it in the comments. Because my notifications on X are so overwhelmed that despite the tags, I am unable to dig through them. (translated)
Mr. Prime Minister @donaldtusk, lately you have been speaking maniacally negatively about baseball, and it is such an interesting and popular game, especially in the USA, where fair rules apply. But you do not like either the rules, or fair play, nor, as you have shown multiple times, the USA. That is why instead you propose a crowbar, with which, as a team of political thugs, you unlawfully attack every independent body in Poland and violate the constitutional order. Now you have decided to forcefully attack marriage, without a law and contrary to the Constitution, using a circular from the Minister of Finance to equate the tax privileges of same-sex couples with the marriage of a man and a woman. According to Article 87 of the Constitution, the sources of universally binding law in the Republic of Poland are not your resolutions or circulars, but: the Constitution, statutes, ratified international agreements, and regulations, and in the area of operation of the bodies that established them, acts of local law. As for what marriage is in Poland, not in Germany, not in Brussels, but in Poland, since you are at least formally the Polish Prime Minister, it is determined by the Constitution and is clearly explained in the commentary to the Constitution edited by, which is worth emphasizing, Prof. Safjan, where we read: "However, the condition for the protection and care of the state regarding the relationship between specific individuals must be that it is covered by the definition of marriage in light of Article 18. Therefore, polygamous relationships or relationships between persons of the same sex will not be subject to protection and care under this article in ordinary legislation, even if they have the status of marriage in other countries." "The duties of public authorities arising from Article 18 in the form of protecting marriage and family apply to every marriage, as a union of a woman and a man, and every family on the territory of the Republic of Poland." "By 'defining' marriage through its features, one can indicate that it is a registered, monogamous union of individuals of different genders, which assumes the equality of spouses (see Article 23 sentence 1 of the Family Code)." "Article 18 of the Constitution of the Republic of Poland, in defining marriage, does not allow for the 'dilution' of its content in ordinary legislation. The concept of marriage is therefore uniform within the entirety of public and private law (see justification of the ruling of the Supreme Administrative Court in Warsaw of April 23, 2008, II FSK 373/07, Legalis)." "In Article 18, the concept of marriage is supplemented by a definitional phrase, defining marriage 'as a union of a woman and a man' (see L. Garlicki, Article 18, in: Garlicki, Constitution, vol. 3, note 5, pp. 2–3). The law thus contains one constitutive feature defining marriage at the constitutional level – it is therefore always a union of a woman and a man. The supplementation of the concept of marriage by the constitutional legislator means the impossibility of extraconstitutional (especially statutory) change of the concept of marriage [as many J. Boć, in: the same (ed.), Constitutions of the Republic, p. 49; Banaszak, Constitution, 2012, Article 18, Nb 1 and widely B. Banaszkiewicz, Problem of constitutional assessment, p. 359 and following; the same, 'Marriage as a union of a woman and a man', p. 591 and following]." I believe that honest Polish tax officials will apply the valid Polish law and will ignore interpretations of the KO politburo that are contrary to this law in their work. PS. Mr. Tusk, thugs end up behind bars sooner or later, and there they can at most play among themselves in palant. (translated)
🚨 UPDATING WHAT IS KNOWN TODAY - SCROLL DOWN 🚨 Day 200 of reminding that Paweł Kozanecki killed two women, and thanks to the bizarre ruling of Judge Karol Radaszkiewicz, the only punishment he will face for this will be 1.5 years of imprisonment. ℹ️ Kozanecki continues to be held in a penal facility in Szczecin, where he was placed due to an investigation into drug-related matters being conducted by the local prosecutor's office, in which the "lawyer of the new era" was also involved along with his spouse. The topic of the so-called bracelet is currently closed, although there remains a possibility to apply for it in the future, based on good behavior. In June this year, the District Prosecutor's Office in Olsztyn submitted a request to the National Prosecutor's Office to consider filing an appeal against the sentence unfavorable to the convicted. The appeal has not yet been formally submitted to the Supreme Court, but from unofficial sources, I know there is an intention to do so, and analyses of the case files are currently underway to formulate the appeal effectively. We await an official statement from the National Prosecutor's Office. Interestingly, signals have also emerged about the intention to prepare their own appeal by the lawyers representing Kozanecki, who would seek to change the classification of the act to a milder one or even an acquittal. ‼️ Today marks a small anniversary, as I have been reminding about this shocking case for 200 days. And I will continue to remind because it seems to have no end yet, and forgetting it by society could only open the door for Kozanecki to avoid due responsibility. On this occasion, I would like to sincerely thank everyone who is helping me to raise awareness through daily shares, comments, and likes. I have exchanged private messages with many of you, but let it be known on this forum — thanks to you, this still resonates! 🤝 I encourage you to join in and contribute your part to the social pressure for fair treatment of all kinds of "celebrities". There have already been many examples confirming that pressure makes sense. Nothing can return the lives of Ms. Anna and Wanda. However, I am convinced that it is worth keeping an eye on this so that no leniency is applied to the man who caused their deaths. ❓️ If you have any questions regarding the "lawyer from the coffin on wheels" case or would like to clarify any issues, feel free to write; I will try to answer everything according to my current knowledge.

My opposition to the Bandera-supporting Ukraine since March 2022. I was fired from my job for this recording and received hundreds of threats from my fellow countrymen. Quite by accident, I recommend the book written by the Guardian of National Memory Mr. Janusz Horoszkiewicz "And Our Name is Volhynian Children," so that we draw conclusions from history. The link to the book is in the comments. (translated)

Here it begins, the old song - "Oh my God, you can't lynch and hate like that!". Well, of course. You can quickly take someone's little children away, without a court, outside of procedures, and for personal reasons, but may God forbid you from writing an unkind comment on the internet!

I receive a lot of questions in the comments about why the doctoral works of Sławomir Mentzen, Patryk Jaki, Jacek Bartosiak, and other doctors were not analyzed. I will not address these individual jabs, I will respond collectively in this post. You probably do not realize how much attention it takes to respond to comments about this doctoral thesis. It's not just tweets, comments under them, but also phone calls, emails, private messages on X. I hope that all this commotion in the context of this work will also stir things up a bit among universities, promoters, and reviewers. Knowledge and logic are not available and reserved solely for people with academic titles. Everyone has the right to verify the theses of those who are active in the public space. This is what freedom of speech and freedom of expression are about. Therefore, in response, if you feel the need to conduct an analysis of someone's doctoral thesis, I encourage you to pursue such a path, perform such an analysis or commission it commercially to an entity that deals with these matters.
