This is where I apologise’: Polish state TV presenter says sorry to LGBT+ viewers
The Guardian ^ | Feb 13, 2024 | Ashifa Kassam

Posted on 04/02/2024 10:48:29 AM PDT by Reverend Wright

A television presenter with Poland’s state broadcaster has apologised for the years of “shameful words” directed at LGBTQ+ people, in a moment hailed by a prominent rights campaigner as the closing of a chapter in Polish society.

Bart Staszewski, an activist and film-maker, said the apology made to him live on air on Sunday showed the transformation of a broadcaster that served as a mouthpiece for the Law and Justice (PiS) party during its time in power.

Looking directly into the camera, Szeląg said: “For many years in Poland, shameful words have been directed at numerous individuals because they chose to determine for themselves who they are and whom they love.”

In a nod to the prejudice sown by the previous government, he added: “LGBT+ people are not an ideology but people; specific names, faces, relatives and friends.”

As he turned to face the two campaigners, he said: “All these people should hear the word ‘sorry’ somewhere. This is where I apologise.”

This is what happens when the Left seizes power. Institutions are forced to promote Left messaging.

Law and Justice in Poland understands that. They used the institutions when they were in power.

The "conservatives" in the Anglo-sphere are clueless. They believe in the "neutral institutions" bullshit.

Institutions are NOT neutral. They either promote our messaging, or Left messaging.

I think the appropriate remedy in the West is that there should be law against propaganda toward children. Of course, people can do what they want to do, as long as it’s 18+ and it’s not out in public.

At what point does saying “that’s so gay” become a complement?

Wrong. Shameful words were directed toward those practicing shameful acts and were spoken by people who don’t participate in the real-life “let’s pretend” game.

I wish that was true but it’s not. Once the woke cancer hits it spreads to stage 4 quickly and every public institution gets infected.

I cannot, for the life of me, figure out how a totally deviant lifestyle has not only been “normalized”, but held up as desirable. And that mutilating children to fulfill the requirements of that lifestyle has become commonplace and “normalized” as well. It obviously signals a serious moral breakdown. This is confirmed by the stealing of our actual liberties of free speech, what car or stove we’d like to own, our ability to walk down the street or take public transportation without being attacked, the sovereignty of our country, the free election of our desired candidates, etc. We can only appeal to the Almighty to strengthen us to bring about a return to morality.

We are definitely in the Days of Noah and the Days of Lot


Luke 17:26-32
New King James Version

26 And as it was in the Days of Noah, so it will be also in the Days of the Son of Man:

27 They ate, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the Day that Noah entered the Ark, and the Flood came and destroyed them all.

28 Likewise as it was also in the Days of Lot: They ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built;

29 but on the Day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained Fire and Brimstone from Heaven and destroyed them all.

30 Even so will it be in the Day when the Son of Man is revealed.

31 In that Day, he who is on the housetop, and his goods are in the house, let him not come down to take them away. And likewise the one who is in the field, let him not turn back.

32 Remember Lot’s wife.
