How fucked up in the head do you need to be to make shit like that up? It’s not even just an adult, which would be stupid enough, no, it’s an education official.
I mean it’s not much different than
Make up some disinformation. Use it as a talking point to get people on your side and advance your goals
I think falsely claiming preschoolers have rooms for masturbation or anything sex-related is still a tad worse than falsely claiming they shit or pee weirdly. They serve the same goal of attacking public schools, but one still just seems more fucked up than the other.
On the one hand, it’s similarly ridiculous. On the other hand, I think just about everyone would be more startled disgusted by the claim here.
Conservatives generally have an astonishing skill at coming up with the weirdest bullshit to justify their hate of anyone progressive.
considering their tendency to project im always worried its not made up.
Poland is very religious. Their politicians know that religious people are essentially brain damaged and will believe pretty much anything as long as it comes from someone they view as an authority figure (even if its proven wrong, they’ll still stick with it). Raising children to be religious is child abuse.
I think it’s about the general view on masturbation. Like I guess some people in Poland would love to tell preschoolers that masturbation is wrong and shouldn’t be done at all. If anyone teaches children it’s ok, but they shouldn’t do it in front of everyone, it’s easy to imagine it leads to the idea of a masturbation room, which can easily cause outrage in Polích population despite the fact it’s actually nothing wrong.
Reality is a team sport, to some people. Claims are not evaluated. They’re simply accepted or rejected based on interpersonal trust.
They think you’re the same way. They think that’s all there is.

About as fucked as any
conservativeregressive representative, pundit, or a good chunk of their voters.*uneducated official
No better guardians of morality than people who fantasize about masturbation rooms for children.
Yeah, you’ve got to be a sick fuck to even come up with this shit.

She was prepared to show the reporter where she’d seen the claim online, but her phone was in the microwave, charging.
This was because she had attempted to drill for the hidden headphone jack, and thought it would not turn back on because the battery was dead.
Any room can be a masturbation room if you’re committed enough.
Or fast enough
Or sneaky enough
Or just don’t care about pub(l)ic opinion enough
You know there’s now a small bunch of people who believe this… All she had to do was say it once, and the damage was done.
And the evidence is “I heard it from a friend, you don’t know them, but it’s totally true”.
“I can’t find a source because the government and [[[globalist]]] mainstream media is covering it up. Do your own research”
While I do appreciate having dedicated masturbation stations at work, I dont think elementary schools need them for the students
But I do think we should advance this discussion as a workplace perk
That’s not what your cubicle is for, Frank. We can all see you and it’s gross.
Yeah Frank, last year we converted conference room 8D for this purpose.
Took me a second to get the joke
Just go jerk off in the bathroom like a normal person.
It’s really hard to tell if you’re joking, because there are people who actually think that.
I used to work in a boogie tech office that converted a conference room to a nap and mediation room. It has artificial grass and lots of pillows.
While I do think it was a nice perk, I personally get more of a productivity boost from a quickie than a power nap. But everyone’s different.
Fortunately I work from home, so I don’t need a masturbation station at some shared office. But I do think it could be nice, though I can’t see how to make it sanitary.
It would have to be some kind of single-stall facility where you can flush the entire room when you leave… like a decontamination chamber or something.
Yeah I mean cover everything in stainless steel and tile, but now it feels like a ghetto WC in the underground or a prison. Not so nice & comfy.
Workers deserves comfortable masterbation stations for their all their hard labor.
Or just wait until you get home to touch your dick.
Just use a jizz container.
Girl, I squirt tho
I don’t see the problem here.
I need a tarp with a funnel. A container alone is not sufficient.
Bed pans might suffice with a strategic hole cut out.

Thanks bot I was counting on you!
The remarks were made by Barbara Nowak, the education superintendent for Małopolska, a province of 3.4 million people in southern Poland centred around the city of Kraków. The national government appoints one such official in each of Poland’s 16 provinces, where they are tasked with overseeing schools.
Nowak, a controversial and outspoken figure, was asked in an interview with news website Wirtualna Polska about claims commonly made by her and other Polish conservatives that the World Health Organisation (WHO) is seeking to “sexualise” children.
“The WHO outlines the aims to quickly interest young people in their bodies and in the pleasure of artificially aroused sexuality,” she answered. “These groups claim that the easiest way to relieve a small child’s emotions is through masturbation.”
“In Swedish preschools there are special rooms where the teacher goes with a child and masturbates them,” Nowak continued. “They then know that they can also masturbate on their own.”

Also right wing extremist.
Not every time, but enough times that I just assume at this point.
It used to be “excentric” but, as we all know, language is constantly evolving.

Correct.
It shouldn’t also surprise you that she was appointed by another homophobe and reactionary - education minister Czarnek.
Me personally, I won’t miss him, her or that party in the next government.

Yes, one the few good news this year
Obviously.
you people are no longer allowed to make fun of america’s crazy politicians
America’s crazy polititians are a direct and indirect influence on polish ones.
Yeah but when you see a rise in broken, sociopathic politicians in one country, the response isn’t supposed to be “hold my Paczki and watch THIS”
Counter argument, Russian interference and political undermining has a direct and indirect influence on global politics.
“Russia should “introduce geopolitical disorder into internal American activity, encouraging all kinds of separatism and ethnic, social and racial conflicts, actively supporting all dissident movements – extremist, racist, and sectarian groups, thus destabilizing internal political processes in the U.S. It would also make sense simultaneously to support isolationist tendencies in American politics”.”
Correction: Everyone is still allowed to make fun of American’s crazy politicians, there’s just more non-American politicians in the pool to also make fun of
Is this where we realize that we’re all just people, and people are crazy?
I’m not a people. I am a sea cucumber.

We all import american bullshit, I saw some dumbas talking about trans people and Biden on tv. I live in a small Balkan shithole, but those our the issues we face here. It spilled over to the dumb shits, the reality based community is shrinking
It’s less wacky politicians (though there undoubtedly are some that actually believe that) and more nationalist propaganda - showing Poland as an island of righteousness against the removed west or something. It’s an attempt by the far-right Law and Justice Party to gain support via culture war and shocking people into disgust and hoping they back you based on that.
It works on my family, at least in part. 😕
Nah, it’s just American politics imported. Estonian far right party tried it with gay people but it got them ridiculed instead because same sex marriage wasn’t even legan then but they made it into a hot enough of an issue that after losing our government signed a law that does legalise it starting next year.
I’m guessing Estonia will get the “save the children” narrative for our next national election, I’m hoping that will end up making stuff better for trans people instead.
Now imagine we in Poland have not only this bullshit but also the imported american bullshit.
To put the “official” in context, that woman is Barbara Nowak, the education curator for the Lesser Poland voivodeship - that is, the official directly responsible for the education system in entire region, and this particular region is one of the most densely inhabited.
Every right wing accusation is an admission of guilt. Euuuugggghh…
Why even respond to such nonsense?
Or why respond seriously?
Just call the person that made the claim a sick and stupid freak and apologize to the people forced to work with her. Decorum should go out the window when shit like this is being slung around, this “we go high, they go low” shit is cringe.
Exactly. Or as they’re called in the Swedish Tongue - maSSturbatoriums. No such thing. Silly Polish people. Sweden waves its genitals in your general direction.
…Wait, why did they bring the Swedish flags out for this? Denying that our schools have masturbation rooms makes sense, making it a point of national pride that they don’t is really, really weird.
stock photo for the article
Nah, it was these three children and their mum that denied it.
You sure? I reverse searched it and it was a photo on wikimedia commons from 2014
They broke out their special masturbation room rebuke flags to deny it.
Was just riffing on the idea that the people in the picture would be involved in any way with the statements put forward by the Swedish ambassador to Poland.
Still doesn’t mean they “brought out the flags for this”. Its just a photo of them, could be in any context.
did anyone stop to think maybe there should be mastobatoriums?
