Over 30 countries do not accept LGBTI people in Poland

  • More than thirty countries, provinces and regions have declared in Poland, on the initiative of the administration itself, LGBTI spaces without people since August last year. Stickers have also been distributed to mark spaces that did not support the Jews, as was done in the Third Reich.

Resolution denying the existence of LGBTI persons

The conservative side is that of southern Poland, where these measures have been taken. Survey data indicate that homophobia is declining in Polish society, but the extreme right is in a counter-institutional direction. In the Swidnik region, for example, a resolution was adopted last year that denies the existence of LGBTI people: they say that there is no such person and that to defend them it is nothing more than a legal ideology.

Far-right in the European institutions

“The danger is on the doorstep. In Europe we are seeing that the extreme right is gaining strength, which is not two or three times with a megaphone, but that they come to the institutions and make decisions that mark our lives and those of the generations to come. Europe is assuming this stigmatization,” says The Stonewall.
