For me, the breaking point was the infamous Nazi saying, "S**** Ukraini, G****** S****". For many of our ancestors, these were the last words they have heard in their lives -- just before they were barbarically murdered. The reaction to these words was usually proportional, with some Polish politicians condemning their use and most of the Poles refusing to say them out loud, even while visiting Ukraine. Then, the switch was flipped: my friends are blatantly using these in their social media stories, they are casually displayed on the streets of Warsaw. The verbal equivalent of something worse than a swastika.

It feels like having a stroke.
