Btw, is Sonic X Shadow generations even good? I liked the original sonic generations, but my thoughts after watching the trailer were mixed

The funniest thing is that right-wingers in Poland usually use contradictory narratives to push their narrative of “communism bad, capitalism good”. Poland wants to be considered western, but at the same time it always blames the west (especially Germany for partitions and nazi occupation, and allies for “betrayal”) for its shortcomings. The Germans are also blamed for “controlling” liberal political parties, while conservatives also usually implement reforms that allow for lower taxes for western corporations and privileged treatment in special economic zones that benefit Germany. Poles know that their economy is almost totally dependent on the EU, but somehow they always want to make it seem like that the economy is a “miracle” compared to PPR. Polish political discourse is also filled with absolutely insane russophobia and orientalism, to the point where General Staff of the Polish Army, for example, shows this nonsense on their twitter account. Poland weaponizes its “victimhood” to force anti-russian and anti-communist narratives, but at the same time it wants to be like the countries that abused Poland.
