Poland Is Responsible for the Holocaust: "Stop Anti-Semitism" Twitter Account
12 comments:
Bieganski the Blog exists to further explore the themes of the book Bieganski the Brute Polak Stereotype, Its Role in Polish-Jewish Relations and American Popular Culture.
These themes include the false and damaging stereotype of Poles as brutes who are uniquely hateful and responsible for atrocity, and this stereotype's use in distorting WW II history and all accounts of atrocity.
This blog welcomes comments from readers that address those themes. Off-topic and anti-Semitic posts are likely to be deleted.

There are critical comments https://www.eucanet.org/online-event-launch-of-the-digital-booklet-on-memory-politics/ The webinar today.
ReplyDeleteThe booklet http://online.anyflip.com/nqbw/gzly/mobile/ does not mention MS St Louis denied entry to Canada in 1939.
ReplyDeleteThe booklet prizes Germany "Monument to Polish WWII victims will be erected in Berlin." It will be, some day. It has not been erected during 77 years and ignorance in Germany is common.
ReplyDeleteThe booklet does not inform about German lack of help for destroied Poland. Now Poland demands money and thousands of stolen pieces of art.
ReplyDeleteAs predictable as sunrise and sunset.
ReplyDeleteYes - this is par for the dismal course.
DeleteJacob Flaws studies the Holocaust. https://dr.lib.iastate.edu/entities/publication/2c257419-e5eb-4783-8f96-9dbc1e5bb945 "Bystanders, blackmailers, and perpetrators: Polish complicity during the Holocaust", 2011, https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/25785648.2020.1858583?journalCode=rdap21 "Sensory Witnessing at Treblinka" "this research offers a counternarrative to Nazi imagery presenting death camps as isolated and clean killing factories" - this is perhaps a Western stereotype, German Nazi crimes were committed inside Polish cities and villages, blood, smell of burning bodies were common. Jeff Peri belives that Flaws supports his opinion "The idea that there were penalties for not murdering people is absurd and is undeniably complicit, Poles all too eagerly helped the Nazis murder Jews". There were death penalties for not delivering Jews. This does not whitewash Polish criminals, but sometimes people murdered to remove traces of their illegal (according to German law) activities.
ReplyDeleteFrom Twitter "Poland was complicit. Poland currently has laws making it illegal to teach the real history of the Holocaust. There are 7000 amazing polish people in the list of the righteous among the nation's, Poland also had the highest rates of complicity. Poland still blames the jews" "holocaust survivors have been arrested for telling their stories in your country"
ReplyDeleteColonial pose (kolonizatorska poza) of Claude Lanzmann in "Shoah". https://rcin.org.pl/dlibra/doccontent?id=63027 Polish language is a linguistic 'Kopciuszek' (literally Cinderella, but I do not know if the English name contains the same meaning). Lanzmann ignores also Yiddish, the langauge of many Jewish victims.
ReplyDeletePolish people as populus horribilis. Jewish immigrants and their descdendants in French-speaking Belgium describe Poland as locus amoneus or horribilis and Polish people as populus horribilis.https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=891456 I have no access to the paper.
ReplyDeletehttps://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/dec/11/after-eighty-years-there-is-no-excuse-to-not-know-about-the-holocaust
ReplyDelete"After eighty years, there is no excuse to not know about the Holocaust
There are unfortunately still excuses to not know about dead Christian Poles, destruction of Polish economy, academy and culture, about 45 years of Soviet terror accepted by the UK in Tehran, Yalta and Potsdam.
US research. https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-3-030-96188-6_2 "Quantifying Polish Anti-semitism in Twitter: A Robust Unsupervised Approach with Signal Processing" I have no access tp the paper, but Summary is interesting. In my opinion it may suggest that the case against two (not one) professors was connected with the 2018 law (the case was a common libel), but I may be oversensitive. The writer claims there is no such connection.
