Sławomir Skrzypek — "Tinky Winky to gej" (Ban Teletubbies)

2007. PiS-era children's rights ombudsman Ewa Sowińska launches an investigation into Tinky Winky's sexual orientation because he carries a handbag. Becomes an international punchline and a permanent Polish-politics meme — the canonical example of culture-war absurdity.
