Tomáš Zdechovský wrote that after the intervention of the Russian data center, there was talk of a sharp decline in bot activity. If the decrease in fake accounts supporting people labeled as "flastenci" were also confirmed, he would consider it significant. He questioned whether it is compatible to declare allegiance to Czech sovereignty while simultaneously drawing technical support from Moscow. He added that the Czech debate should be led by real people and that, in his opinion, Kremlin troll farms would not be missed by anyone. #českápolitika #dezinformace #sociálnímédia (translated)

David Rangl, in an ironically toned post, claimed that the intervention of Russian data centers caused chaos in the Czech pro-Russian scene. According to him, disinformation websites and trolls stopped receiving instructions, so some people had to form their own opinions. Rangl described that the SPD convened a crisis staff, which, according to him, after several hours came up with several contradictory explanations: either the attack did not occur, Russia repelled it, or it could have been Brussels, NATO, migrants, and Petr Fiala to blame. He also mentioned a demand for the government's resignation without a clearly stated reason. According to him, on the alternative scene, one influencer condemned Russian aggression, another published photos of burning servers as evidence of Russian victory, and another began promoting Russia's accession to NATO. Jindřich Rajchl, according to Rangl, demanded a parliamentary investigative committee due to the decline in followers. The post further described the extinguished premises of the Stačilo! movement, non-functional stamp machines at the Václav Klaus Institute, and the vaccination of the Svatopluk association against rabies at a veterinary station. The situation was eventually calmed by a chain email that blamed events on Soros, Ukrainian pensioners, and a secret NATO lab in Uzhhorod. Rangl concluded that Russian servers were gradually returning to operation, while the damages to the Czech "patriotic scene" could be irreversible, as some people realized during the outage that they could think independently. #ČeskáRepublika #dezinformace #vlastenectví (translated)

Emrah Erken criticized the UN Human Rights Council and Navi Pillay. He wrote that the body had condemned Israel for human rights violations a total of 116 times since its founding in 2006, while China, Turkey, and Qatar had not been condemned even once. The United Nations, he claimed, had turned human rights into a weapon against the West, particularly Israel. Pillay served as UN High Commissioner for Human Rights from 2008 to 2014. During this time, the Human Rights Council never condemned China, Erken wrote. UN Watch and former UN employee Emma Reilly accused Pillay of having passed the names of more than 50 dissidents, including Uighurs, to China under her leadership. Additionally, Pillay stayed away from the Nobel Prize ceremony in 2010 in honor of the imprisoned Chinese dissident Liu Xiaobo. Erken further wrote that Pillay later led a UN commission of inquiry that accused Israel of genocide and previously signed calls for sanctions against Israel. In 2012, she criticized the satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo for its Muhammad cartoons, describing the drawings as malicious and intentionally provocative. Critics also accused her of opting for appeasement and restrictions on freedom of expression rather than defending it in the debate over Muhammad cartoons. Erken called it a shame that Pillay would receive this year's Nobel Peace Prize, and expressed opposition to post-colonialism, the "Woke Left," and Pillay. #Menschenrechte #UN #Israel (translated)

The author wrote that Ukraine needs a new president. He accused Volodymyr Zelensky of having knowingly provoked Russia's unlawful war by inviting NATO to advance to the Russian border.

Russians deliberately target civilians. A bus with passengers is an attractive target for them precisely because one strike can kill as many people as possible. Filashkin announced that due to the sharp deterioration in the security situation, he ordered the authorities in these cities to stop public transportation services. #Kramatorsk #Ukrajina #válečnýzločin (translated)

The savings book enemies wrote that the SPD is at 13 percent, the Greens at 15, and the Left at 12. As soon as a left-wing three-party coalition could realistically achieve a secure majority, the SPD would, in his estimation, bring about the coalition break and new elections. The Union is losing significance behind the "firewall" without realizing it, he added. #Politik #Deutschland #Koalition (translated)

Zdeněk Šarapatka wrote that every day he wore a motif on his chest reminiscent of Karel Schwarzenberg and remembered him. He stated that Schwarzenberg, together with the best domestic rhetorician and expert in public operations, created TOP 09. According to Šarapatka, his legacy irritated people whom he referred to as supporters of Moscow and willing to sell the Czech Republic to Russia. He believed that the current times required a sharper political clash; he claimed that Schwarzenberg could dismiss a traitor of the nation with just a few words. Šarapatka explained that he ran for the Senate in Prague and called on voters to give him their votes under numbers 5 and 13. He insisted that he led a decent and honest campaign, did not have money for hundreds of billboards, and was assisted by volunteers. He accused an unspecified opponent of hypocrisy, stating that he received over a million crowns for the campaign from a person who, despite protests, built a concrete structure outside the residents' windows. Šarapatka also claimed that the opponent was using campaign assistance from students of a public school. He added that he did not want to be both a mayor and a senator nor to hold a senatorial position in a quarter-time capacity while managing three educational institutions. He offered voters courage, education, and life experiences, urging them to participate in the elections on Friday and Saturday. #volby #politika #Českárepublika (translated)
