TL;DR: In a plot to destabilize the EU, Putin and Lukashenko personally and directly caused masses of people to migrate from the Middle East, Asia, and Africa, so Poland won’t observe the legal right of asylum anymore. They also decriminalised shooting migrants “in self defence”.
(Edit) This is from the new, supposedly less fascist Polish govt lol
Couldn’t agree more to everything you said.
And when you put it that way, oof. Not white but my parents traded much of theirs off for the bible and that didn’t turn out well (as an understatement). Europe and the west will be spending a long time recovering, or trying to recover, from the “whiteness” they inflicted on themselves.
As someone whose partner is white I think I understand them a bit better seeing your comment as well. For me even if I wasn’t raised in it and reconnecting with it is something I’ll be doing all my life as a result, the identity and pride in it has always been strong (thanks to being a minority- the choice is either pride or shame IMO). I’ve often thought being white and having such easy assimilation must be both a blessing and a curse- but seeing you put it that way makes it sound even more wretched yet.
