This comes as a result of a scuffle between South Americans and Poles, with two ending up hospitalized in Śrem. Followed by this, stupid questions like "Have open borders brought gang violence to Poland all the way from South America?" (Blood) are seriously being asked and discussed.

To no one's surprise, this is a clear-cut scapegoating of all immigrants for the actions of a few, looking for any excuse to wage racist, xenophobic actions on less than 3.69% of the population of Poland.

Nationalities outside of Europe are so small, they are all relegated to the "other" row on the census .-.
Proponents of these lynch mobs will say that the data above may be a bit outdated, since there's been a bump-up on the non-Poles population (as if it justifies the proliferation of these mobs), but will omit the fact that after 2021, most of them come from Ukraine.. So that still doesn't change much of anything.

I live in Poland, and I have never met agressive foreigner. A lot of agressive poles though.
same (In addition, I'm a foreigner). It was already bad, but it sure as hell is getting worse by the day. They also feel entitled to move around the world freely but at the same time talk about how immigrants are problematic, not "integrating into our culture properly" and chant shit like "Polska dla Polaków".
