"However shinenigans you mention were executed in accordance with the law "
That's disputed, which is the point.
But it's clear they were politically motivated actions to stack the Supreme Court with an ultramajority of Judges of their own liking. Just as PiS did after the fact.
Opening that rabbit hole requires some nuance and objectivity, it's not nearly as one sided as it's presented in some media.

Using words like 'disputed' and talking about previous govenrment shinenigans being responsible in any way for the current state of affairs is true 'false equivalence'.
- jollybean 5y agoThe previous government is definitely responsible for initiating illegal maneuvers leading to a constitutional crisis related to Judicial appointments. That doesn't say anything about what the current government has done, or is doing, but contrary to your statement, it's irresponsible not to look at the Judicial crisis outside the context in which it was created, especially in the popular press.
