On the Communist modus operandi

My comment on the article Opposition figurehead Maria Kolesnikova is bundled into van in Belarus by Gareth Browne in The Times, 7 September 2020. Fake event. The story does not fit the Communist modus operandi. There is no need to grab someone from the street like that. The Communist way is to socially murder the … Read more

Pret a imprimer

My comment on the article Hard rain as 100,000 defy autocrat’s police in Belarus by Gareth Browne in The Times, 7 September 2020. The ‘protests’ occur, because that’s what political technologists agreed on. The Communist dictatorship has been painstakingly built over several generations by now. It is very well oiled and controlled in all spheres … Read more

Polit-soap opera

My comment on the article Belarus protesters defy Alexander Lukashenko with show of solidarity  by Nick Holdsworth in The Times, 31 August 2020. This is a polit-soap opera played in slow motion, product of Communist political engineering. There is no independent political life in Belarus. The ‘protests’ are staged and the entire spectacle is a … Read more

Self-limiting journalism

My comment on the article Belarus rebels must act while Putin wavers by Roger Boyes in The Times, 26 August 2020. Mr. Boyes represents self-limiting journalism. Roger Boyes refers to Solidarity in Poland and calls it a ‘self-limiting’ revolution. This concept is a Communist lie. Communists themselves created fake opposition to their own regime. The … Read more

Attention span

My comment on the op-ed article The Times view on anti-Lukashenko protests: Minsk on the Brink in The Times, 24 August 2020. This article’s analysis is carried out without understanding how Communism worked and continues to work. Belarus is a Communist, totalitarian country. The alleged ‘opposition’ to Lukashenko’s rule come from similarly privileged Communist class … Read more

Communist night torture

My comment on the article Belarus protests: It’s hard to sleep hearing  the screams of people being tortured by Patryk Jaracz in The Times, 18 August 2020. You need to distinguish between the grotesque and the reality. The article is grotesque. My father was a prisoner in the Brest citadel in 1945. Cries of men … Read more

Politruk’s speech

My comment on Michael Binyon’s Belarus has gone its own way without the fires of nationalist rage in The Times, 22 August 2020. The author writes about his visit to Belarus in 1967. I was denied permission to see my relatives in 1984. The author was clearly acceptable to the Communist authorities. I was not. … Read more

Grandpa Frost

My comment on The Times view on the Belarus protests: Lukashenko at Bay, 18 August 2020. This is kids’ stuff. Political technologists in Belarus and elsewhere in the Eastern Bloc are laughing their heads off. It works every time. Western analysts and newspaper editors can’t get enough of it and each time they believe the … Read more

Communist modus operandi

My comment on the opinion article This is Belarus’s moment — let’s back it by Edward Lucas in The Times, 17 August 2020. It is one of those articles telling readers that noise is a signal. There is no difference of interest between Lukashenka and the ‘opposition’. The conflict about vote counting is fake. Communist … Read more

BTL dictatorship

My comment on the editorial article The Times view on Andrzej Duda’s re-election: Divided Poland in The Times, 14 July 2020. BTL stands for “below the line” and is a phrase borrowed from marketing practices. It refers to non-traditional forms of advertising. I used it for the first time in January 2010 in my Klient … Read more

The real vs the virtual story from Poland

My comment on the article Duda vs Trzaskowski: Poland heads to polls in close-run presidential election by Maria Wilczek in The Sunday Times, July 12 2020. Typical false story. Both candidates come from the same background, the same group. The readers are fed fake stories about Poland. There is no real difference between the candidates. … Read more

Narrative invariance

My comment on the article Polish populists are rocked by liberal surge at ballot box by Maria Wilczek in The Times, 29 June 2020. The narrative of the public life in Poland in general is presented in the Communist mode. This is essentially the narrative of self-appointed prison authorities explaining their role as guardians of … Read more

98.92 percent of the vote

My comment on the article Poland on brink of a new, pro-EU politics by Maria Wilczek in The Times, 28 June 2020. This is merely a spectacle about elections and democracy pretending to be the real thing. It is not. It is useful to refresh the memory somewhat. The first so-called ‘non-Communist’ Polish PM in … Read more
