Polish Antisemites. Braun Copycats and Fans
3 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.

Jan Peczkis you sent in a comment hailing Grzegorz Braun's attack on a menorah as
ReplyDelete"consciousness raising about the magnitude of Jewish privilege and power."
This rhetoric and this worldview is antisemitic and I'm not going to post it.
I post a snippet so that you and others can get an idea of what antisemitism looks like and why I don't want anything justifying it in the comments section of this blog.
There's enough antisemitism out there. We don't need more.
Please rethink your approach.
And I have to add. "Jewish privilege and power."
ReplyDeleteSeriously?
Jews are attacked and insulted on the world stage by a demented, hate-filled fool -- who happens to be an elected official in the country where the Holocaust largely took place -- and you assess that as proof of Jewish privilege and power?
That is not rational.
Please think some more. Engage in dialogue with others who disagree with you. I know you encounter many who disagree with you. Hear them out. And reform. It's what God wants you to do. Hate is not a Christian value.
I also don't want to post "whataboutism" posts whose only goal is to distract attention.
ReplyDeleteWhat about this or that bad thing some Jewish person or people did at some point.
You know whataboutism was a propaganda technique used by the communists in Poland. I remember it from Polish media when I lived there under Communism. I don't want to give that space on the blog.
It's propaganda, not integral thought about pertinent matters.
