Tusk promised on his 2023 campaign trail to undo the near-total ban on abortion introduced by the PiS government.
what many women see as Tusk’s most glaring broken promise: failing to overturn the near-total abortion ban imposed by PiS.

The right have devised and extremely effective strategy: spam the Internet with an absurd amount of hit pieces against the left (and liberal!) politicians. They monitor the reaction, and as soon as one takes hold, they push it - hard.
The left have a special talent for not showing up or wasting their vote on a no hope candidate. This strategy plays straight into that weakness.
Some examples: incubators for babies during the Brexit vote, being pro-Palestine during the 2019 UK election. Being anti-Palestine during the US election. Any reason to sit it out… and let facists win.
We need to wake up and realise that sitting it out is exactly what the nazis want. They don’t expect you to vote for them. Just sitting it out is enough.
Yes, better left-wing candidates would be great - but that’s on us. Getting rid of FPTP in the UK might help. Either way, we need to wake up to this strategy and start being smarter. Grass root campaigns to get better candidates, sure, but for fucks sake, turn out and vote!
