News / Poland has accepted over a million Ukrainian refugees. Why does the EU keep telling propaganda about Poland? [304]

To add my observations about anti-Polish propaganda as an expatriate now living in Poland, and visiting here regularly for many years, there are numerous left wing expats that reside in Poland that feel the need to criticise Poland and the Polish people at every opportunity.

This virtue signalling involves running down the country they choose to live in, implying that it is racist, backwards, out of touch with modern reality, should imitate Britain/France/Germany/Belgium/Sweden, is oppressive to women, needs more African/Muslim refugees and imply that it is a country filled with 'religious extremism'.

This is no exaggeration, it's what I read and have encountered.

Why these expats live here rather than return to the US, Canada or the UK and other countries where they come from is beyond me. But it is worth noting that this negative mentality is not absent from foreigners who live in one of the most peaceful, affordable, safe, beautiful countries in the world.
