Abstract

The article tackles the problem of instrumentalization of the “hate speech” concept in the context of an ongoing ideological and political conflict in Poland, as the consequence of a deep polarization of the political scene after the Smolensk plane crash of 10 April 2010. Based on selected journalistic texts from the years 2010—2019, a mechanism will be shown of using such concepts as “industry of contempt” and “hate speech” to discredit the values and attitudes presented by the opposing sides of Polish public debate.
