  About time.  If a town in Poland decide to go against the flow and discriminate, prepare to pay the price and see who will blink first.
context: Old people in Poland really don't do their country any favours. There's so many young educated Polish people throughout Europe now who say they will never go home because of how twisted the older generation are with things like lgbt rights. It's causing a massive brain drain. >
  
  Yep my partner is Polish and they dont want to go back, we wanted to visit Poland so they can show me their country but because how the government is we wont be able to. From what they've shown me the Polish government is trying to make sharing memes about Christianity illegal, anti-christian speech illegal etc >
  
  Evangelicals are such cunts >
  
  Great. Threat of losing EU money or whatever else is the driver, doesn't matter - this is progress. Really glad for the people in Poland who will be less discriminated against thanks to this. >
  
  The EU is far from perfect, but it's so much better than the alternatives. >
  
  So… they lie to get money? >
  
  Yes >
  
  They are all anti-EU 'til the money stops coming... >

  The decision by councillors in ?widnik, a town of 40,000 in eastern Poland, came amid fears that it could lose millions of euros in European funds due to its anti-LGBT declaration.
  The initial resolution adopted by ?widnik council in March 2019 pledged to "Stop LGBT ideology" and fight "Homopropaganda".
  With EU funds for the town still under threat, at the end of December 2022 the council unanimously approved a new declaration "On the protection of fundamental rights and freedoms".

  This will not fundamentally change their thinking. Just hidden. >
  
  Hidden is better. Forcing homophobes to go back to public begrudging acceptance and hushed whispers in private is a step in the right direction, especially when compared to open contempt and hostility.
