They are beautiful, eloquent — and do not exist. AI-generated girls from the 'Prawilne_Polki' profile called for Polexit and preached right-wing views. The TikTok account has been deleted, but disinformation and propaganda in Poland persist.

AI-generated videos promoting Poland’s exit from the European Union have appeared on Polish-language social media, featuring non-existent, attractive young women advocating for “Polexit”.

One TikTok account called “Prawilne Polki” published content showing women dressed in T-shirts bearing Polish flags and patriotic symbols, European analytics collective Res Futura said. The content targeted audiences aged 15 to 25.

The videos featured statements including: “I want Polexit because I want freedom of choice, even if it will be more expensive. I don’t remember Poland before the European Union, but I feel it was more Polish then.”

    If the US is included in what?

    Vietnam, Indonesia, Bangladesh, South American Banana Republics, Iran-Iraq war. You had the Korean war on Russia but it could as well be on Korea.

      In which of those countries is the native population now under 5% of the country’s population because of US actions committed at least somewhat recently? For example in the Hanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug 1,5 % of the population is Khanty, 0,9% of the population is Mansi.

      Or, you can just look at the contemporary map of Finno-Ugric languages:

      You can see the big gap east of Finland. Think about why that area is not coloured as having speakers of Finno-Ugric languages anymore.

      Or just look at the population of Finland, which is about 5,6 million. Or that of Estonia, some 1,2 million. And compare it to the number of Karelians in the Republic of Karelia, right across the border: 25,901 people. 86% of the population there are Russians, only 5.5% are locals. That is what it would now look like in Finland if we had not stopped the Russia in 1939-1940. US has done a lot of evil (Hawa’ii…), but nowhere have they done within the last century what the Russia is contemporarily doing in its colonies. And yes, USA has been doing some bad shit, but it absolutely pales in comparison the Russian colonialism. The only difference is that nobody seems to care of the Siberians like they care of Africans.

      Here’s a map that shows France and England, and also the size of their colonial empires:

      And here’s a map that shows the Russia (marked with bright yellow), and also the size of its colonial empire:

      And yes, people did say “but come on, all of that is France, you can’t say that France is just that small part there!”, and people have also been saying “but comeone, all of that is the Russia, you can’t say that the Russia is just that small part there!”, but it still holds that the colonized territories are colonized territories that need to be free.

      But really, none of the those countries you listed have a situation a tenth as bad as that of the plethora of nations colonized by the Russia. Horrors have happened, absolutely, but not at the level of the current colonial Russia.

        You were talking casualities before.

        If you care about racial purity, the West is the wrong choice. It’s all about mixed societies. If the races are about to dissolve in the west do you think some minorities will be excempted and protected?

        It’s all about having workers and if populations are not fertile then immigrants are used. So you have to reject emancipation of women if you want to maintain minorities.

        You can see the big gap east of Finland.

        Haven’t the Finns like the Hungarians migrated to these lands? That would explain the gap. At least Hungary then shows that the Uralic people are not only genozided but also have displaced other people.

        That is what it would now look like in Finland if we had not stopped the Russia in 1939-1940.

        Would the Finns be dead or identify as Russian?

        but nowhere have they done within the last century what the Russia is contemporarily doing in its colonies.

        Look up German culture in the US. The bullying was introduced in schools to stop Germans from speaking German. WW1 made it strategic, but I think they were far more thorough than the Russians.

        to care of the Siberians like they care of Africans.

        Show me a million deaths since the 90ies and you have even more of my attention.

        The west is supporting a genocidal war in Sudan to secure the coast of the Red Sea.

        Minorities losing their identities is something else than starving to death or being raped and shot for being of the wrong tribe.

        Of course, minority support is important but I think it’s too much to be envious of Africans.

        But really, none of the those countries you listed have a situation a tenth as bad as that of the plethora of nations colonized by the Russia. Horrors have happened, absolutely, but not at the level of the current colonial Russia.

        It wasn’t worse because the USSR prevented the US from intervening.

        The Soviets also sent a nuclear submarine to ward off the threat posed by USS Enterprise in the Indian Ocean.
