Thank you for your interest in this petition. The petition has been brought to a close by its initiator, but there are many other petitions people like you have launched to make of Europe a better place. Suszek, JarosΕaw A. This is an adamant civic call for an official boycott and forthright ostracism of the current minister of education and science of the Republic of Poland, Mr. PrzemysΕaw Czarnek β a person with a long and well-documented record of homophobic, xenophobic and misogynistic views, statements and deeds rooted firmly in militant religious fundamentalism and primitive nationalism.
We urge, in the strongest possible terms, European and American politicians responsible for education and research to use all formal and informal tools at their disposal to realise the above postulate, and in particular. We strongly believe that it is our duty as Europeans or, quite simply, as civilised human beings to stand up against such anti-liberal and anti-intellectual currents of counterenlightenment in the politics of the post-truth era as represented by Mr.
Czarnek and his ideological environment. We recognise in these currents markers of extremely dangerous mechanisms of injustice, exclusion, debasement, oppression and harm that seek to negate and undermine the fundamental principles and values upon which the international community has been built after the many grave mistakes of the past.
We support those numerous members of the Polish society, and in particular members of the academia, teachers, students, pupils and their parents, who actively oppose the scandalous nomination. The true nature and scale of the negative social ramifications of Mr. From it, a portrait emerges of a right-wing moral crusader and a ruthless party apparatchik with very clear-cut views on such issues as.
The above, in conjunction with servility towards his political and ideological camp make him an eager executor and an emblematic figure of the process of a fundamental revision of the civilisational paradigm undertaken by the pro-authoritarian populists currently in power in Poland. His first enunciations and actions as a minister summarised therein leave no doubt as to his plans of turning education into indoctrination and humanities into a vehicle of the rightist propaganda.
