There exists an easy solution for the Polish people if they were smart enough to act, the current government could go the way of Ceausescu.

But I’d guess all the smart people moved to the UK and rest of EU years ago, leaving only the worst to bicker among themselves.

PIS has about 30% support. Not enough to win elections. They had about 40% at their peak. It's enough to win elections but not enough to change constitution, which is why they break it constantly.

I don't think a revolution is a good idea. Would probably lead to thousands of deaths. If the next elections are marginally fair they lose and we go from that point. If they mess with the elections to the point of changing the result - at that point revolution is justified and will probably happen.

They (PiS) are unfortunately well trained in the dark arts of minority rule. All they are doing is applying the extreme right wing playbook [1] to ensure their 30% us enough.
