Idk, Poland did this on national scale in 1999 but managed to brainwash people so much they were protesting when the scummy system was made a bit better later.
Remember the Argentinian retirement system that caused humanitarian disaster and people came out on streets to topple it and the government? It's literally the same system and Poles were defending it.
I'm hardly surprised when it comes to the Poles. We're talking about the nation that just opened its doors and gave Ukrainian refugees basically full citizen rights, including the ability to run for office, law enforcement, be teachers, etc etc (seems they, like other EU nations really have a thing for importing nazism).
People in the US (at least) have always been promised better and delivered a heaping bag of steaming dog shit, which is pissing more and more people off every day.
This was actually pretty unpopular in Poland right from the start, especially that the "fuck you i got mine" mentality is really ubiquitous here to the point people routinely acts against their own interests only so others don't recieve more. So when the uncritical support for Ukraine will finally be taken down from every propaganda outlet here, the pushback will start. It's doubtful it will go to the level of deporting them, the influx had done a huge amount of social dumping needed by our bourgeoisie, but they will be discriminated.
I actually wasn't aware that the move was received negatively, although from what you describe it makes sense.
As far as deporting them, who knows. All Ukrainian refugees are potential cannon fodder to keep the war machine going. It's like a reserve army that NATO can decide on a whim to throw into the jaws of Russia's military.
Perhaps in Poland's case, though, you're onto something that this won't happen. We'll see where this goes.
Thing about Poland is that despite our country is routinely, and not far from the truth, considered as badly working, one thing we have superior compared to even USA: local propaganda. Sure, there are tons of bickering, but on the issues all political forces agree on, like anticommunism, russophobia and bootlicking USA the bubble is basically seamless.
Yeah, there are some talks hinted about deporting Ukrainians from Poland to Ukraine to serve in the military, but nothing concrete yet. I meant getting kicked out after the war when the proUA propaganda ends. Poles traditionally don't like Ukrainians very much.
Overall i guess much will depend on how exactly that war ends and how will western propaganda spin it.
