Inwazja
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Inwazja ("Invasion") is a half-hour film directed by Przemysław Wenerski[1] and Marcin Tulicki, produced by Telewizja Polska which purports to reveal "the inside story, aims, methods, and money behind the LGBT invasion" of Poland.[2][3][4] It was first broadcast on 10 October 2019 ahead of the 2019 Polish parliamentary election two days later, shortly after the prime-time news show Wiadomości.[5][6][7]
According to Stanley Bill, the film "depicted LGBT rights activists as a foreign-backed threat to Polish children, religion, values, and the very biological continuation of the nation".[8]
The film includes footage taken using a hidden camera by a TVP employee pretending to be a volunteer for Campaign Against Homophobia, a Polish LGBT organization.[9][10][7] It implies that participants in equality marches in Poland were paid for their attendance. However, the reality is that only a handful of employees receive money to pay transportation expenses and other costs, who are not the vast majority of participants.[11][12][7] The film claims that all equality marches in Poland are attended by the same protestors that travel to different towns.[13] The film footage of equality marches in Poland and pride parades elsewhere is selected to portray the participants in the worst possible light.[11][12] The film also omits important information about the equality marches, such as the violent attacks against them.[14][15]
The purported "LGBT invasion" is described as different things, including: pedophilia, social engineering, a dangerous ideology, a controlled propaganda movement, desecration of the sacred, an attack on the Catholic Church, indoctrination of young people, nudity, vulgarity, changing customs. The independent media, local governments that support LGBT people, and mayors such as Rafał Trzaskowski and Jacek Jaśkowiak are portrayed as complicit in the "invasion".[12] According to OKO.press, the film claims that the ultimate goal of the LGBT movement is to legalize pedophilia.[16]
The film interviews different people for their reactions to the LGBT movement, including Aleksander Nalaskowski, Paweł Lisicki, and Bronisław Wildstein.[12] Commentators compare the "LGBT invasion" to the Swedish Deluge and, unfavorably, to Stalinist rule in Poland.[12] They also claim that the ultimate goal of the LGBT movement is legalization of pedophilia in Poland[12] and that the LGBT movement is attacking the Catholic Church and its followers.[13] Dawid Mysior, one of the commentators, says that Catholics "have the right to respond with aggression" to the LGBT movement.[13]
