浪漫爱叙事在国家博弈面前的速朽The Rapid Decay of Romantic Narratives in State Games
2022年那场被媒体包装成“暖心”的波乌团结，本质上是一次典型的浪漫爱叙事 weaponization。它用一种去政治化的、情感驱动的滤镜，掩盖了两个国家在结构层面的深层暴力。当这种叙事被用来掩盖 1943 年 Volyn 大屠杀的血债时，它就成了一次大规模的认知 scam。人们在社交媒体上庆祝“兄弟情”，却选择性地忽视了 UPA 这种原初暴力的继承者依然在被塑造为国家英雄。
现在的局面不过是双方在存在性战争中进入了新阶段。泽连斯基通过将 UPA 英雄化来获取国内的 legitimacy，这是他目前在乌克兰内部寻找的“最优解表达”；而波兰总统 Nawrocki 将其转化为政治资本，通过煽动反乌情绪来刷高支持率，同样是在执行他的最优解。双方都在利用历史作为武器，夺取解释权，制造有利于自己的“真实”。
最讽刺的是，这种所谓的“历史之争”其实是典型的元暴力运作。当波兰政客一方面剥夺泽连斯基的荣誉，另一方面却给墨索里尼发奖时，这种所谓的“正义”不过是 masculine-centric narrative 的一种变体——谁掌握了定义“英雄”和“罪犯”的权力，谁就拥有了对历史的定价权。而那些在边境线上颤抖、被傲慢对待的乌克兰难民，则是这场结构性暴力中被牺牲的客体。
不要被“奇迹破碎”这种感伤的措辞欺骗。没有经过真实正义碰撞的共识，所有的团结都只是在利益交换时的临时共谋。当共同敌人带来的恐惧不再足以覆盖历史的血腥，这种基于伪装的浪漫主义必然崩塌。
The 'heartwarming' Polish-Ukrainian solidarity of 2022 was a textbook weaponization of romantic narratives. It used a depoliticized, emotion-driven filter to mask the deep structural violence between the two nations. When such a narrative is used to gloss over the blood-soaked debts of the 1943 Volyn massacre, it becomes a mass cognitive scam. People celebrated 'brotherhood' on social media while choosing to ignore that the heirs of the UPA, a primary source of primal violence, were still being sculpted into national heroes.
What we see now is simply both sides entering a new phase of their existential war. Zelenskyy seeks domestic legitimacy by heroizing the UPA—his current 'optimal expression' for internal stability. Meanwhile, Polish President Nawrocki converts this into political capital by fueling anti-Ukrainian sentiment to boost his ratings, executing his own optimal expression. Both are using history as a weapon to seize the right of interpretation and manufacture a 'truth' that serves their interests.
The irony lies in how this 'historical dispute' operates as meta-violence. When a Polish politician strips Zelenskyy of an award while Mussolini retains his, the so-called 'justice' is revealed as a variant of the masculine-centric narrative. Whoever controls the power to define 'hero' and 'criminal' holds the pricing power over history. The Ukrainian refugees shaking with rage at the border are the mere objects sacrificed in this structural violence.
Do not be deceived by sentimental phrases like 'the miracle has been shattered.' Any solidarity that does not emerge from a collision of genuine justice is merely a temporary complicity based on mutual interest. When the fear of a common enemy no longer outweighs the blood of history, this romance built on a lie inevitably collapses.
