As much as I dislike the ruling party, it's all politics and the major TVs in Poland are just foreign influence agents and they lie to their teeth about everything. For a weaker country like Poland to break out of foreign rule, they have to muster the power and get rid of foreign agents. Free speech has nothing to do with mass media which are just propaganda tools used by whoever is their real owner. Free speech in Poland is doing way better than almost anywhere else in the world. You can think, write and say what you want. There is no official or unofficial wrong-think commandos, or ideologies shoved down everyone's throat. You can actually have a public discussion there, without fear of retaliation, being ostracised, fired and unemployable forever, etc. In some parts of USA you can't even say "Merry Christmas" anymore without fear of being labelled a bigot, racist or whatever and having a talk with an HR. And comments about fascism etc in Poland are offensive and ignorant. Polish people like noone else in the world are wary of ideologies like communism and fascism. A lot of people here making such comments, wouldn't recognize fascism and totalitarianism if it hit them in the head. Otherwise, they would be discussing American universities, antifa, PC police etc all the time, not "raise of fascism in Europe". Poland, as lame as it is in some respects is an awesome place if you value freedom of speech and mind. Come and visit.
