Accounts Ive read include how Polish soldiers would break into homes and beat the inhabitants up for simply having traditional Ukrainian quilts. Also forcing priests(who were the most respected people in Western Ukrainian society at the time) swear alliegence to Pilduski at gunpoint.

"Love for a man's own nation must not make a man into a wild animal, which tears down and provokes revenge; it must make him more noble, so that he can gain the respect and love of other nations for his nation. Therefore love toward your own nation is not contradictory to love for the whole of mankind; they complement each other. All of the nations are children of God."
