The article centers on a discussion about the rising political discourse concerning 'Polexit'—the possibility of Poland leaving the European Union. Michał Płociński argues that the theme of Polexit will recur in political debates leading up to the elections, potentially becoming a major contentious issue. He emphasizes that the relationship with the EU will likely form the crux of the political conflict, as parties may leverage the topic to garner support or criticize opponents.

Estera Flieger voices her concerns about the negative ramifications of a campaign centered on Polexit. She fears more about the election campaign that could arise from discussions of Poland's EU membership than the concept of leaving the union itself. Flieger points out that such discussions could easily spiral out of control in a politically charged atmosphere, alluding to the Brexit experience where political leaders were swept along by radical outcomes they initially opposed. This comparison raises the alarm about how discussions surrounding EU membership can quickly become polarizing.

The article concludes by noting the historical trajectory of the debate on the EU in Poland. Flieger expresses her apprehension at the normalization of the term 'Polexit' in political discourse, explaining that the evolution of language can contribute to an increasingly volatile public discussion. She and Płociński emphasize the importance of maintaining a thoughtful and level-headed discussion on EU membership, highlighting the necessity to manage political narratives carefully as elections approach.
