Jan Pietrzak is famous for his satirical and cabaret activities as the creator of Hybryd and Pod Egidą, but in recent years he has appeared mainly on TVP Info and other right-wing editorial offices. In the past, he has already expressed controversial theses, and now, after changes at Telewizja Polska, he has become a publicist for TV Republika. This time, however, he outdid himself. More information from the world of media can be found on the home page.
“I have a cruel joke. They (Germany – editor’s note) count on the Poles being prepared because we have barracks for immigrants in Auschwitz, Majdanek, Treblinka, Stutthof. We have a lot of barracks built here by the Germans and we will detain them there immigrants, forced onto us illegally by the Germans, because people who escape to a better world are not illegal,” Jan Pietrzak said on Republika TV on December 31. Regardless of the context in which the right-wing environment defends him, his words are simply scandalous and caused righteous indignation among the Polish public opinion. Just a right-wing sense of humor.
The prosecutor’s office and the National Broadcasting Council are already working. The Auschwitz Museum also condemns the statement
The District Prosecutor’s Office in Warsaw is already working on Pietrzak’s statement. The satirist’s words will also be discussed by the National Broadcasting Council, which received a complaint from the Center for Monitoring Racist and Xenophobic Behavior. The Chairman of the National Broadcasting Council, Maciej Świrski, has already announced an inspection procedure. Representatives of the Auschwitz Museum also expressed outrage, calling Pietrzak’s statement a “shameful and terrifying manifestation of moral and intellectual corruption.”
Maciej Stuhr comments. “Offensive to satirists.”
Maciej Stuhr, who, apart from acting, is also involved in cabaret and stand-up comedy, also commented on Jan Pietrzak’s controversial words. As a representative of the “environment”, he commented not only on the last “performance”, but also on Pietrzak’s entire professional career in one sentence.
Calling Jan Pietrzak a satirist is offensive to satirists. This guy hasn’t said anything funny in…ever
– Stuhr wrote on his Facebook profile
Most of the actor’s fans applauded his entry, which received a lot of “likes” and comments. “This satirist has as much in common with satire as Law and Justice has in common with law and justice”, “The thing is that he said loudly and publicly what many of our compatriots think and say. Unfortunately.”, “First of all, it is contemptuous of the millions of murdered “Human dignity is always and everywhere inviolable,” we read the comments of Internet users.
Some of them, however, accused Maciej Stuhr of the hypocrisy he allegedly showed when making jokes about the plane crash near Smolensk in 2010. “You know, but joking about the death of 96 people qualifies you to be the king of comedy,” says one of them. In the meantime, let us remember that in ancient times, Pietrzak, now 86, aroused controversy on national grounds:
