• Racial categories are reactionary
  14 August 2020, by siawi3

  Racial thinking, no matter how ‘progressively’ arrived at, can only be reactionary. The growing influence of identity politics and racial essentialism in the media, academia and other mainstream institutions is all in the name of equality and diversity. Nevertheless, it is a way of thinking that permanently categorises human beings, putting them into rigid racial, ethnic and cultural boxes. Race isn’t regarded as a social construct that can be explained and analysed historically, but as an omnipresent state of being which we must ‘come to terms with’.

• Poland: Rainbow Resistance: The Fight of LGBTQ Activists in Poland against Post-Election Repressions
  1 September 2020, by siawi3

  The Foundation PRO is one of several ultraconservative groups active in Polish public life. Moreover, it is part of a larger transnational religious fundamentalist movement gathered under the umbrella organization “Tradition, Family and Property” (TFP) that in the early 2000s started to treat Eastern Europe as a new frontier for building a new right-wing civil society. Weaponizing state-controlled public media for the presidential campaign, the ruling party consistently portrayed the LGBTQ community as an imminent and foreign threat to Polish traditional family values. Meanwhile, the Polish Catholic Church also demonized the ominous “LGBT ideology” to divert attention from the pedophilia scandal in its ranks.
