00:00:00.000 Every time we speak, you make me think about Poland is doing certain things right that other people have to learn from.
00:00:05.800 I said, give me the most extreme policies that Poland has that other Western countries would say that's crazy.
00:00:14.060 And here's the eight things that came up.
00:00:15.440 I want to read it to you.
00:00:16.140 And tell me if this is accurate or this is wrong. 0.99
00:00:19.000 Number one, no legal same-sex marriage.
00:00:22.860 Constitution defines marriage as between man and woman. 0.99
00:00:25.720 Yes, 100%. 0.93
00:00:26.560 Number two, no same-sex adoption rights. 1.00
00:00:30.700 100% true. 1.00
00:00:31.220 Same-sex couples cannot jointly adopt children in Poland. 1.00
00:00:35.320 That's true. 1.00
00:00:35.920 True. 1.00
00:00:36.240 Okay, number three, strong restriction on sex education.
00:00:40.320 Promoting sexual activity to minors can be prosecuted in some context.
00:00:44.540 True.
00:00:45.160 So no sexual education to minors.
00:00:46.840 No indoctrination.
00:00:48.720 Because what left tried to do, they tried to start a new subject in the school
00:00:53.780 as a pro-healthy kind of thing.
00:00:56.440 And then we knew that the program of the whole thing
00:01:00.000 was indoctrination and it was stopped.
00:01:02.620 So there is no sexual education as they tried to in the past.
00:01:08.860 So yeah, children in Poland are safe.
00:01:10.700 Okay, so let's go to the next one.
00:01:12.200 Drinking in public places is often illegal unless designated.
00:01:16.480 That's correct, yes.
00:01:17.640 You do not walk with the alcohol on the streets.
00:01:20.700 Okay, next one.
00:01:21.460 But obviously, don't get me wrong.
00:01:23.220 This is very important.
00:01:24.260 We've got beautiful restaurants just like in here in Miami.
00:01:27.680 People are sitting outside on the walk.
00:01:29.700 But there are places, the public area, when you do not go with the alcohol. 0.95
00:01:34.840 Mandatory ID laws.
00:01:36.020 You are required to carry ID and show it to the police upon request. 0.55
00:01:40.180 Correct.
00:01:40.680 Yeah, of course.
00:01:41.180 By the way, in America, no federal law requires to carry an ID.
00:01:44.100 You don't need ID to vote.
00:01:46.180 To vote in many states, yes. 0.75
00:01:47.800 It would happen in Poland, no.
00:01:49.340 Here's the next one. 0.90
00:01:50.440 Sunday tradition restriction.
00:01:51.680 Most retail stores must close on Sundays.
00:01:54.060 Only few exceptions, gas stations and small shops.
00:01:56.320 Correct, yes.
00:01:57.200 Why is that?
00:01:58.660 Sundays for family.
00:01:59.780 That's the entire country.
00:02:00.880 Closed on Sunday.
00:02:02.000 Really?
00:02:02.480 Yes, of course.
00:02:03.060 Okay, so next one.
00:02:04.680 Blasphemy is a criminal offense.
00:02:06.180 Publicly insulting religion or religious symbols can lead to fines and up to two years in prison.
00:02:11.400 That's right, of course.
00:02:12.800 Illegal to promote totalitarian ideologies.
00:02:15.440 You promote Nazism, communism, other totalitarian systems, you could get arrested.
00:02:19.720 Of course, you cannot wear a t-shirt with Hitler or Stalin. No, it's illegal. We went through this
00:02:25.880 shit. We know it shouldn't be allowed. We can talk about freedom of speech, but there are some 1.00
00:02:31.480 boundaries in the countries like Poland. And again, Poland was... 0.96
00:02:40.440 Partitions took us 123 years of non-existence, right? Then we had World War II, Hitler. Then we 0.79
00:02:48.360 had 70 years of communism. Do you think that anyone in Poland would allow you to wear a 1.00
00:02:55.480 t-shirt with Hitler or with Stalin? No, no, my love. No. We went through this shit. We
00:03:00.860 know what it is. You can tell me about the freedom of speech when you never experienced
00:03:07.940 Nazism or communism. But we did. We know what it is. So there was no one in Poland who would
00:03:14.700 oppose this kind of law. And I'm proud of that.
00:03:16.980 By the way, yesterday was Hitler's birthday. 0.93
00:03:18.740 So, you know, if somebody in Poland wanted to say, hey, what's wrong with that? 0.89
00:03:23.520 I want to celebrate.
00:03:24.380 I want to wear a shirt around.
00:03:25.540 They couldn't do it there. 1.00
00:03:26.820 Not in Poland. 0.99
00:03:27.420 No.
00:03:27.860 A content creator gets out there and says, why don't we talk about the untold story of Hitler, how he was a great leader in Poland.
00:03:33.880 That couldn't happen.
00:03:34.540 No.
00:03:35.760 So are there YouTubers and streamers in Poland?
00:03:38.440 Are there content creators in Poland?
00:03:40.560 One is with me, my friend.
00:03:41.720 Yeah.
00:03:42.080 So that guy's with you.
00:03:43.260 He seemed like a fun guy, the tall guy.
00:03:45.260 Yes.
00:03:45.560 Yeah.
00:03:45.700 So what can they do and what can they not do?
00:03:49.360 Well, we are not North Korea.
00:03:52.400 I don't want you to think that we are so strict.
00:03:56.280 No, you can do whatever you want in a very, very simple frame.
00:04:03.060 You do not praise Hitler.
00:04:04.460 You do not praise Stalin.
00:04:06.000 We can talk about the history.
00:04:07.720 We can talk about obvious facts, numbers of people killed and ideology, this and that.
00:04:13.280 Yes, but you cannot praise it.
00:04:14.720 You cannot leave them.
00:04:16.820 Can somebody go out there and say, you know, Dominic, I don't believe 6 million people died.
00:04:21.080 I think it's only 200,000.
00:04:22.420 It's a Holocaust denier.
00:04:24.240 That would be considered a Holocaust denier in Poland.
00:04:26.540 And he could get arrested.
00:04:27.980 Yes.
00:04:28.580 So you don't have necessarily the freedom of speech that we have in America.
00:04:32.180 Well, how would you be treated in America if you would say that Copernicus did not exist?
00:04:40.980 You didn't see Copernicus, but you know that he existed, right?
00:04:43.720 from the history historical fact and proofs now we know about the numbers of people who were killed 0.96
00:04:49.920 you cannot deny holocaust because the holocaust is also polish people and and it's against the 0.99
00:04:55.520 history of your own nation for sure for your nation absolutely because you're it's it's a very 0.84
00:04:59.760 different story for somebody living there versus living in america but to me how do you maintain
00:05:05.600 this knowing the left is eventually going to come to want to destroy this how does poland maintain
00:05:11.400 this 20 30 40 50 years from now i don't think the left would ever come back to the power to change
00:05:16.920 the obvious facts how are you so confident because um to if you want to insult someone
00:05:24.440 in poland like really badly right with your language in our families and and my friends
00:05:34.600 you call him a communist. It's like this little girl from this clip,
00:05:39.080 Mommy, Dad called me a Democrat, right? Same story, but it's very serious in Poland.
00:05:44.760 Communism, if you're a communist, you are the worst human, because communists 0.98
00:05:50.840 killed, but in a very brutal way, then they... I don't want to go... 0.99
00:05:57.320 Everyone knows what communism is. It's the worst of the worst.
00:06:00.440 So if you want to insult someone, it's like my father was like,
00:06:06.580 if he called someone a communist, I was serious.
00:06:10.300 So what I think you need, in our generation time, it will not happen.
00:06:16.000 No.
00:06:16.480 I mean, we do have socialists.
00:06:18.700 We do have left wing in the parliament. 1.00
00:06:21.840 But it's not as strong to change like constitution because the gay things, 1.00
00:06:27.460 that's constitution. 1.00
00:06:28.820 They will never be able to change it in a way... 0.77
00:06:32.860 So that's in the constitution, no same-sex marriage and no adoption.
00:06:36.000 Yeah, of course, because in a constitution it's very clear
00:06:39.020 that institution of marriage between men and women is protected by the country.
00:06:49.360 It's under special protection of the country.
00:06:52.060 So it's not like political views only, but it's constitution.
00:06:54.780 And also, I think that many people who suffered because of the communism, their emotions, memories are still alive.
00:07:08.380 So, yeah.
00:07:10.780 Article 18 of the Constitution of Poland states, marriage as a union of men and a woman shall be placed under the protection and care of the Republic of Poland. 0.96
00:07:18.660 That is correct.
00:07:19.200 So now here's a question. So let's just take a cutter or let's just take some of the cutter goes to EU and says, hey, we don't like this Poland stuff, what they're doing. 0.97
00:07:27.960 Who can we buy to change it? What influence does EU have to inject leftist ideology into Poland?
00:07:35.840 What they are trying to do now is, for example, two gays are getting married somewhere in the EU state, so they won't impose this law throughout the whole European Union, but it's against a Polish constitution, right?
00:07:56.040 Can they overwrite that?
00:07:57.260 No. How? I mean, they can do whatever they say.
00:08:00.900 I mean, European judges can say and rule out whatever they want,
00:08:05.840 but it's impossible to implement it in Poland
00:08:09.780 because it's against the Constitution.
00:08:11.700 So obviously there will be some battles in the courts,
00:08:17.940 but it's not going to change the reality.
00:08:20.980 The Constitution has to be changed, and they have no power,
00:08:23.940 and they will not have a power for years
00:08:25.760 Because, as I said, memories, suffering of communism is still alive in many families.
00:08:33.660 In Poland.
00:08:34.480 Oh, yeah.
