Yes, it’s bad yet I don’t see Poland removing Czarniecki (also responsible for pogroms) from their anthem any time soon neither I see streets named after Roman Dmowski, Józef Piłsudski, Józef Haller (his soldiers also participated in pogroms) etc disappearing. I don’t see how “Heroes of UPA” glorifies any transgression any more than “Heroes of AK” would glorify mass murder committed by Polish Homeland Army on Ukrainians (including children and elders) in Sahryń or Pawłokoma and other villages.
