(THIS IS THE JEWISH GROUP! RESPECT!!)Senior Polish Politician in Antisemitic Rant: The Jews Are Not Humans, They Are Animals!
The growing trend of antisemitic outbursts among leading Polish politicians and public figures reached new heights this week, when a close ally of the countrys deputy prime minister took to social media to denounce Jews as animals.
Żydzi to nie ludzie to zwierzęta! The Jews are not humans, they are animals! an enraged Kazimierz Plotkowski posted on Twitter on Wednesday. The tweet was later deleted, after being captured by several screenshots shared online.
Plotkowski, a successful businessman, is a co-founder and former regional leader of the Polska Razem (Poland Together) Party of deputy Prime Minister Jarosław Gowin, and an adviser to the Polish government on energy and mining. The party was founded by Gowin, an outspoken social conservative, in 2013 after he was dismissed from the post of Justice Minister in the previous government.
Following his Twitter outburst, Plotkowski told Polish news outlet NaTemat that he was responding to an unspecified article in which Poles were depicted as pigs who robbed Jews in the ghetto. However, his original tweet was posted after the museum at the Auschwitz concentration camp announced that it was replacing a small exhibition about a group of Poles executed by the Nazis in 1943 with another about resistance in the camp. Several influential Poles, including historian Adam Cyra, have protested that the decision demeans the suffering of Poles under the Nazis. A spokesperson for the museum told the PAP Polish news agency this week that the new exhibit would show the central role played by Polish inmates in building a resistance movement inside Auschwitz.
