17 мая 2024

Poland has spoken out against the Christ. Warsaw City Hall banned Catholic crosses, but ordered to respect transgender people, reports Gazeta Wyborcza.

Warsaw is the first city in Poland to ban the use of religious symbols in offices belonging to the mayor's office. However, the restriction does not yet apply to the wearing of pectoral crosses. At the same time, officials are urged to use feminitives, impersonal forms and gender-neutral terminology more often. It is noted that the measure was taken to "recognize and take into account social diversity".
