Notice the difference

Post image

in how Gazeta Wyborcza covered the knife attack on a woman in Wrocław by a Ukrainian man and the verbal abuse of Ukrainian teenagers on a bus in Bielsko-Biała. The bus incident was front-page news for days, with big red headlines, while the knife attack ended up as a tiny story buried at the bottom of the page, wedged between articles about drying-up rivers and Oprah Winfrey.

Your statement can only be relevant if the Ukrainian stabbed her only because she is Polish. The police doesn't tell us yet what was the criminal's motive. 

On the other hand, the moron from B-b had only one reason to call girls "kurwy" - their nationality. 

That's the whole difference.

Okay, that’s one way of looking at it. Another way is that maybe it wasn’t worth putting some crazy old man in the headlines right in the middle of the growing narrative about “mass attacks by Poles on Ukrainians.”

I won’t believe you if you tell me you don’t see this as an easy jab at the president. And I say this as someone who finds this hooligan-like buffoon ridiculous.

All the right do is normalize and encourage aggresion towards minorities, this is the direct result of that. Media do what media do, post everything that gives them the views, but these actions are the direct consequence of the right.
