Korwinism
"Democracy means that if this man, you, and I will be trapped on an island, we having a majority of votes will decide that you have to sleep with us. That's the Democracy. And with 2/3 votes we can even put that in the constitution."
Korwinism is a libertarian, monarchist, economically and culturally far-right Polish ideology based on the teachings of Janusz Korwin-Mikke and the parties he's been part of. He can be most easily described as " Minarcho-Hoppean" in the policies he advocates for. Korwinism is known for saying stuff considered "questionable," which usually makes
progressives have a mental breakdown; even other LibRights look weirdly at him.
Some of these policies include: rebuilding the culture and traditions of Latin civilization, implementation of the eternal human aspirations for freedom, respect for private property, decreasing the overall role of the state, strengthening the role of the family and creating favorable conditions for its development, etc.
This ideology is mainly represented by the Coalition for the Renewal of the Republic or simply Korwinist party, a mainly paleolibertarian and
minarchist party, with
anarcho-capitalist and
monarchist factions within.
Personality
Korwinball's mannerisms and behavior reflect the ones of Janusz Korwin-Mikke:
- He loves destroying leftists with facts and logic in a style
Ben Shapiro can only dream of;
- is arrogant, does despise the majority; at the same time, is polite and cultural towards everyone;
- is a horseshoe anti-socialist (every type of socialism is actually the same);
- is a right-wing equivalent of
Italian Left Communism's purism: believes that 99% of ideologies are socialists, whereas he and a tight group of his friends are the only true right-wingers;
- compares every opponent to
Nazism and likes mentioning Hitler, in general;
- sometimes unexpectedly says something weird/bizarre about women, disabled people, or praises random authoritarian dictatorship (behavior known as the "1% protocol").
History
Korwin in the Polish People's Republic
Until the age of 9, Korwin was a Socialist passively accepting of what the
PRL Regime told him. He even had the portraits of
Mao and
Stalin in his room, but he eventually heard in the news that
Tito had devalued the Yugoslav Dinar, this made him think that "Wouldn't that mean that Yugoslav products ten times cheaper for foreigners, and foreign products ten times as costly for Yugoslavs? Making life harder for them". This turned into a conversation with his Grandma, which broadened his worldview to generally turned him towards the right-wing direction. From this point on he was sent on the epic quest to destroy Leftism epic style.
Korwin in his adulthood became involved in politics, writing several underground publications and joining the D*mocratic[Note 1] Front (A state-approved opposition party) and later becoming an advisor to the Solidarity Trade Union. He was generally the most right-wing person in the opposition, criticizing Solidarity leaders for pushing for a mixed market-and-planned economy which would preserve Socialism instead of scrapping the system entirely in favour of a Laissez-Faire society.
Korwin early on
The first party Korwin has founded was the "Real Politics Union" (UPR), founded as an alliance of Conservatives
,
Market liberals,
Agrarians and
Nationalists. It initially found success due to the First Sejm's lack of strict entry requirements, but the Sejm has eventually established them and the party could not secure enough votes to get in or to secure public funding. Eventually causing Korwin to leave it.
After this moment, Korwin took it upon himself to partake in as much events as possible. Partaking in every single Polish election including Presidential, Parliamentary, European and Local[1]; he also rarely refused an interview or a title.
Korwin's rise to fame (and infamy)
Korwin's time struck with the popularization of the Internet in the mid 2000's, where his views and behavior became very memeable, especially his debates with leftists which were re-uploaded on YouTube with titles like "Janusz Korwin-Mikke COMPLETELY MASSACRES a leftist".
Due to the fact that the type of people to use the internet at the time where primarily young College and University students they became primary fanbase and voterbase of his. Because at the time it was fashionable for these students to have rather long hair which was tied in a ponytail the term "ponytail" ("kuc"[Note 2]) became the term for all followers of Korwinism, even if they are bald.
During this time he was crowned "Poland's biggest chauvinist" which he wore as a badge of honor. Korwin also turned out to be the Cyborg that is powered by nothing but Sugar[2].
Korwin goes international
In 2014 Korwin under the party "Congress of the New Right" has managed to garner enough support to join the European Parliament, he used this opportunity to cause as much chaos as possible in the institution because as Korwin said "You can basically do nothing of importance in the Europarliament."
His plan to cause as much chaos as possible in the Europarliament has worked, although out of all the statements he made that foreign media could stick to was his statement that the gender wage gap was justified since on average women were smaller, weaker and less intelligent than men on average.
The return of the king
In 2019, under a Fourth party (Wolność) Korwin started a coalition with several other dissenter right parties and politicians called "Konfederacja" (Polish for "Confederation"). After a brief reshuffling the coalition ended up being Wolność,
The National Movement and
Confederation of the Crown of Poland with minor members like the Driver's Party.
After failing to get into the European parliament again, the coalition participated in the Parliamentary elections. Which were successful, resulting in Korwin and his movement getting into parliament the first time in 25 years.
In order to protest the various integration of the European Union, Korwin even publicly saluted the Nazis in his speech and spoke for China when the Liberals and left-wing party groups in the European Parliament were strongly anti Chinese. But isn't he anti communist?
After Korwin
After Janusz Korwin-Mikke retired in 2022, he was replaced by Sławomir Mentzen. It changed its name from "KORWiN" to Nowa Nadzieja.
During run for X cadency of Sejm, which ended on October 15, 2023, Mentzen had betrayed Korwin. During the campaign Korwin was hidden by Konfederacja's election staff only to be later falsely blaimed for low percentage of votes for Konfederacja[3].
Korwin's reaction to this betrayal was to disassociate from Konfederacja and foundation of a new KORWiN party.
Foundations
The Korwinist movement is distinguished by a certain set of Features.
Libertarian beliefs
The unifying element within Korwinist movements is the belief in Laissez-Faire economics and that taxes should be as low as possible. This belief leads also to the belief that the government should be left to do as small of an amount of functions as effectively possible. As such, they demand the annulment of corporate tax and income tax, along with lowering the VAT to the legal amount demanded by the
European Union. This comes along with privatising all state-owned enterprise, including the education system and hospitals.
Korwin and his parties are also in favor of liberalisation of gun laws, believing it to be the best way to stop terrorists. Furthermore, they believe that if every second Jew in the 1930's and 40's have had a gun, the Holocaust wouldn't have happened, also, despite his cultural beliefs, they're in favour of the legalisation of all drugs alongside prostitution. Korwin himself also believes in the legalisation of child pornography, as long as it's created and shared digitally, with no real children involved.
Traditionalist Beliefs
Some beliefs include:
- The wage gap is generally justified as the average woman is smaller, weaker and less intelligent than the average man (note: the "average" is to be stressed).[Note 3].
- Men should often ignore a partner who said no to sex, as women usually pretend that they don’t want [sex].
- When it comes to rape crime, men should not be convicted unless there were two witnesses to the crime.
- Opposition to the
LGBT movement:same sex marriage and adoption.
Opposition to abortion with almost no exceptions.
- The belief in the restoration of values of the Latin Civilization[Note 4][4].
Anti-Democratic beliefs
The movement is generally opposed to Democracy, with Korwin calling it "The dumbest system of government" as "Two local Żuls[Note 5] have more voice in how things are ran than an expert", and also "During a war, you need a dictator to rule a country". Most Korwinists favor a form of Semi-Constitutional Monarchy instead.
Variants
Dziamborism
Dziamborism is a ideology based on believes of Artur Dziambor, one of the original betrayers, who later founded Wolnościowcy Party. His ideas are more akin to
Conservative Liberalism or even
Liberal Conservatism.
Kuleszism/Anarcho-Korwinism
Kuleszism is a ideology based on believes of Jakub Kulesza, one of the original betrayers, who later founded Wolnościowcy Party. His ideas are more akin to
Anarcho-Capitalism and
Anarcho-Conservatism.
Homokorwinism
Homokorwinism is a ideology based on Facebook group
Kelthuzism
Mentzenism(-Wiplerism) / Neo-Korwinism / XD Philosophy
On October 15, 2022, Sławomir Mentzen became the leader of the KORWIN party, changing its name to New Hope. His main postulate is low and simple taxes. Once Mentzen introduced the "five of the Confederation" where he said that they do not want gays, Jews, abortion, the European Union and taxes. Currently, Sławomir denies these words and claims that it was a joke. New Hope supports the presidential system, voluntary ZUS for entrepreneurs and the abolition of PIT and CIT taxes. After kicking out Korwin from Nowa Nadzieja, he fully embraced being a puppet of his former master Przemysław Wipler as now they continue infamous "March to the Center" by deradicalization of the whole movement.

Notes
- ↑ It is a common joke within Korwinist circles to censor the term "Democracy".
- ↑ Polish word for "Pony" (animal) and "Ponytail" (hairstyle) are the same.
- ↑ However, Korwin claimed that his statement has been misinterpreted, as bere he is referring to the wage differences in a free-market economy by taking an example of the differences between salaries of a tall basketball player and a short basketball player, with the taller player getting paid more
- ↑ The "Latin Civilization" is one of the seven civilizations distinguished by Polish historian Feliks Koneczny, with it's roots in Ancient Greek philosophy, ancient Roman law and the Christian faith. The term essentially has the same meaning as the "Western Civilization".
- ↑ Pejorative term commonly used in Poland for homeless alcoholics.
- ↑ In reference to the "500+ program", instituted by the Law and Justice party.
