I remember seeing a [pewdiepie ](https://youtu.be/rrDD5NTnoU4) video about a polish guy that said women should be paid less because they have smaller brains and are inferior.

I remember the chaos he created and I have to commend the guy for having the balls to say that so openly even if it’s messed up.

Where is he now? What happened after the entire incident happened? What was Poland reaction to it when it happened?

  2. not much, he’s been saying shit like this for decades. his party was on the edge of entering parliament before that for years

  3. He’s been saying shit like that for about 30 years. It’s not new to us, it doesn’t shock us.

    He’s still saying shit like that.

  6. I do not respect him for saying such things, I prefer the term stupid over brave in this case. Anyway he’s been saying such things for decades, it’s nothing new

  7. He’s been saying stupid shit for decades. For you it might have been a “woah” moment, for us it’s just another Wednesday

  8. If your work is less worthy you should get less money. Simple.

  9. He is just a troll and he knows that he is staying afloat with just wasted votes of disgruntled teens

  11. The phrasing he uses should not awe you, his number of supporters should.
    The modern politics is so insane, I believe that if anyone would just defecate on their rally and started throwing shit in their audience, you better believe you hear these points afterwards:

    “I like that he’s straightforward. Any other candidate would throw his shit at us covertly, under disguise. This one’s honest at least”

    “Hey, we should give the guy a chance. None of the previous people threw shit at us, and look on the sorry state we’re in! I say let’s listen to him”

    “Yes, he throws his shit on the crowd, but hey, are you innocent? Am I innocent? Maybe you shouldn’t judge, lest be judged? At least it’s better than (…)”

  12. It was just Europe discovering Korwin. Nothing surprising to hear it from him.

  13. He’s kinda like that one uncle who believes in crazy stuff and goes on about it at the family dinner table. Things he’s saying are outrageous but you kinda don’t care cause it’s that uncle.

  14. “if woman were paid less than men for the same work, everybody would hire woman only.”

  15. He’s part of political formation that benefit most financially from being part of the parliament, but being small mean you don’t have responsibilities and cannot ve blamed for anything. Sweet spot between 3 and 5%
    When they gain too much support they unleash this guy, he give interview or two and they are back at 3%.
    Whenever we see him activated we call it “protocol 3%”

  16. what should be concerning you is number of his supporters and that he visited russian spies in russia

  17. > Where is he now?

    Still in politics and still not diagnosed with early dementia.

  18. ‘Smaller, weaker, less intelligent’ was a legendary quote in my previous job. Used daily, by anyone towards anyone.

  20. He’s saying even worse stuff, but people are used to him being an idiot so no one cares whether he says lies about the war in Ukraine, discriminates minorities or shows support towards china murdering protesters.

    Ps. Some people actually like him because he gives simple answers to complicated matters (even if most of the times the solution would not work).

    Edit: discriminating minorities by politicians is actually normal in Poland 💀💀

  21. Not much, he’s a joke that is one of the reasons why right wingers in Poland are viewed the way they are now. No one really cares at this point about his takes, nowadays he’s been posting a lot of dumb stuff about ukraine and russia and how Ukraine wants to invade Poland or something.

    He was, is and will be pretty much a no one on polish political scene, only thing he did is ruined the worldview of quite a lot of young people (mostly males).

  23. Well, nothing, people still treats him like mentally ill old man.

  24. Same shit as always, that moment wasn’t really anything special for Polish people.

  25. Look, I despise that idiot as much as the next guy, but (at least in this video) he didn’t say that. The interviewer twisted his words the entire time and korwin repeated multiple times that his point is that women **are being** paid less, not that **they should** be. And again, that’s probably taken out of thin air, as he provided no source to his words, but lets not manipulate truth further here, or we’re little better than that old deluded man

  26. there was a short time when every youth were supporting, maybe not exactly him, but the people around him. Korwin itself was a meme. Now when people suddenly stopped supporting him (they switched from right to left side lol), Korwin became just an idiot
    Edit: i forgor to mention that hes also pro-russian, so fuck him

  27. I have to say this interview was on so low lvl from both sides.

  28. Make long story short.
    This misunderstanding comes from the fact that most of people are idiots.
    Wage gap doesn’t egsists in mainstream meaning.
    It comes from statistucs, women in their mass are weaker than men, inteligence is similar for males and females, but women bell-curve is more straight.
    Males are more extremal in most of degrees.

    Lefthists says that capitalist needs slaves and they look for the earnings.The same people says that this people could employ women and pay them 70% of men salary for the same job but they don’t becose of vagina.
    This is ridicolous.

    Most of people can’t think logically.
    I am not Korwin-enthusiast, for me he is crazy but i can move my head properly.

  29. Konfederacja keeps him in their basement but he gets away sometimes to spread more Russian propaganda.

  30. That was years ago and it’s not like he’s been saying that for a short time. Poland did nothing as we, fortunately or not, have freedom of speech, so he can spout whatever the fuck he wants as long as it’s not propagating nazism and couple of other extreme ideas.

    If XIXth century would be a person, it would be Korwin. Sane people view him for what he is – bigoted old fart that would’ve own slaves he could and think that women are nothing more than house servants and brood mares. The sooner he dies, the better for us all.

  31. Well JKM is type of guy who says straight what he thinks, no diploma attached.

    In many many many cases he is absolutely right. He just uses language that was used back in a days (it was normal), now it politcaly incorrect.

    I’d like to say that there are 2 ways of communication:

    What other person says is one thing, but how you react to it/understand it, it’s whole different story…

  32. This guy is kind of a political symbol and a jester in our country. His advantage can be admitted that during the communist era he resisted the authorities and was not recruited as a secret collaborator of the Security Services. He was a monarchist, had a wide group of supporters among long-haired youth, the so-called Ponies. When he launches Protocol 4.76% his party loses support. The words you write about are an example of this protocol, such as that there is no evidence that Hitler knew about the Holocaust.

  35. If you’ve watched pewdiepie video and still say that he said this then you didn’t understand it at all. Korwin is toxic, boor, fool and lunatic, but he didn’t said that

  36. He was kidnapped and bricked up in Żabka as a sacrifice to support the building’s strength.

  37. I am positive I am going to be downvoted to hell, but while I understand where the criticism comes from, I’d like to get facts straight. Please note that Korwin did not say that women should be paid less but that they are. This is exactly the whole point of PewDiePie’s video that you linked – he points out the approach of the media that often manipulates the viewer by making claims that Korwin (or anyone else for that matter) said things that he in fact did not say.

  38. I remember times when Korwin was cited by russian alt-right online communities.
