“RIP Poland” 😂 I do not believe that these liberals and mild socdems will fix the country problems, like collosal inequalities, church power, nationalism etc., but I feel relieved that these fascist fucks from PiS will not hold education any more (4 year at least).

    Zero dissent in Poland. Most of people don’t care at all, and rest do not believe this will come to pass since Poland military is a cold mess and our military expansion projects in last two decades were without exception a duds (though expensive). Like we build a corvette ship that took 19 years and ultimately became biggest and most underarmed patrol boat in the world. Or the mess with helicopters which is so convoluted even the ministry probably lost the plot themselves. Or the WSI affair when PiS govt destroyed military intelligence agency and most likely compromised what passes for national security here on every level. Or the Territorial Army which was supposed to be PiS private army and ended up with a formation completely unable to any actions which will probably be either dismantled or turned into army reserve since polish army as whole have drastic lack of manpower and zero reserves among population.

      I didn’t consider the incompetence angle since I know little about the actual situation there. On paper, it looked like Poland was going to have a super army, a lot of debt, and little else. That’s a volatile mix but ineffective bureaucracy saves the day this time.

        Hard to say what will be results, i can only be sure of two things:

        1. There will be huge money wastage (funnily enough the main argument of liberals during the PiS govt was stopping the inefficient social program 500+ because it was increasing debt, now they will put Poland in even more debt but instead of even inefficient social program we will get just money transfer to US and EU MIC)
        2. Poland will not have super army
