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.”
I don’t want Russia.
Geographically, the US has the benefit of distance from other major powers, and that would in part go away. Russia already blows a bunch of money trying to secure the Far East by getting Russians to live out there.
Russia has a shit-load of problems that have to be solved, from political to AIDS epidemic.
We can already get population while filtering out people who don’t want to be here by just allowing immigration. Annex something and you have to fight the people who don’t want to be there. Immigration is a much better way to get people.
Russia has natural resources, but we have most of the same ones already in North America, and they aren’t that valuable; resource extraction isn’t most of our economy.
