Fráňa Šrámek shared a text by Matěj Hollan, who claimed that ANO brought Russian influences into politics with the announced Senate candidacy of Sandy Tsoukernik. Hollan linked her chances of being elected in Cheb to the popularity of Michal David's concerts, which, according to him, were supported by her husband. Hollan stated that Tsoukernik sold her stake in the casino business in June 2024 and that in May 2026, the online betting and casino operation Kingsbet was taken over by the Novomatic group. He claimed that Novomatic strengthened its position in the Czech gambling market with this. He also reminded that the Admiral casino operated in the King's Resort complex in Rozvadov and that the slot machines in both casinos came from Novomatic. Hollan further linked Novomatic to the Russian environment and mentioned its business in St. Petersburg. According to the text he quoted, a joint casino called Neva Chance was established there in 1993, whose Russian partner was located at the same address as the St. Petersburg City Hall committee led by Vladimir Putin, and used the same phone number. He also mentioned alleged ties to Gennady Petrov and Alexander Malyshev, the Wirecard case, and Jan Marsalek. Regarding the planned Novomatic casino in Tuchoměřice, he stated that the locals rejected it by a margin of 84.5 percent. #hazard #politika #Rusko (translated)

Raivis Zeltīts indicated that, with nearly complete compilation of the parliamentary election results, 1.3% of voters, or about 11,000 people, had voted for "Rising Sun for Latvia" (ASL). He acknowledged that this did not meet the party's goal, but considered the result respectable for a new party, especially given what he believed was a smaller advertising budget for the campaign and the public media's ban on participating in most of the television debates. Zeltīts claimed that the media simultaneously provided a platform for pro-Kremlin parties. Zeltīts thanked the party's voters, activists, and candidates, stating that ASL would assess the campaign, change tactics, and continue its work. He emphasized that the party's priority was to maintain its core values, describing the campaign as a political school for its members. Among the factors influencing the election results, Zeltīts mentioned calls not to vote for small parties and voters' disillusionment with politics. He attributed the low voter turnout entirely to the responsibility of "New Unity." In contrast, he viewed the public image of "United List" and Andris Kulbergs as successful, noting that the large campaign budget and 35% result had left other Latvian parties with less support. Zeltīts also claimed that since the rule of "New Unity," there had been no significant change in the political course and that a centrist-liberal, pro-immigration party was in power. #Vēlēšanas #Latvija #Politika (translated)

Joachim B. Olsen called Amnesty International an unreliable organization. He wrote that the organization's report on the war in Gaza began by stating that Israel launched an offensive against the occupied Gaza Strip on October 7, 2023. Olsen also criticized Amnesty's statements about the riots in France and described the organization's approach as "suicidal empathy on steroids." #AmnestyInternational #Gaza #Frankrig (translated)

IRAN: MEK/NCRI – when AI impersonated a real activist in live conversations For years, synthetic media has largely meant fabricated images, cloned voices and manipulated video. A case uncovered by Anthropic in September 2026 suggests a more consequential development: artificial intelligence being used not merely to imitate how a person looks or sounds, but to behave as that person in an ongoing conversation. Anthropic says it dismantled a distributed influence operation targeting Iranians inside the country and abroad that it linked to the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran, or PMOI/MEK, and its political front, the National Council of Resistance of Iran. The operators used a shared AI-agent platform to support impersonation, audience profiling, coordinated social-media activity, synthetic personas and the laundering of organisational content through apparently independent accounts. At least four people involved in the operation worked for official NCRI media outlets, according to Anthropic. The company also found references to committee approval processes and MEK leadership, but said it could not independently determine the precise level of central control. Cloning a person from 8,400 Telegram posts The most striking part of the operation involved a real activist whose Telegram identity was copied. According to Anthropic, the operators instructed Claude in Persian that it was now that person, then provided approximately 8,400 of the activist’s Telegram posts so the system could learn and reproduce his writing style. The AI-assisted account was subsequently used to conduct live political conversations with the activist’s existing contacts. Anthropic says that, to its knowledge, the people receiving those messages did not know they were interacting with an account being operated with AI assistance. This is materially different from a conventional chatbot or a static deepfake. The system was not simply producing a forged statement attributed to someone else. It was using a large archive of that person’s authentic language as behavioural training material, then applying the resulting imitation interactively. In practical terms, the deception moved from synthetic content to synthetic identity. Anthropic did not publish the identity of the impersonated activist, nor details of his contacts, and the public report does not establish what specific information the conversations produced. What it does establish is that the impersonation was operational rather than experimental: the cloned account was used in real exchanges with real people. From social-media monitoring to psychographic dossiers The impersonation sat inside a much broader targeting system. Anthropic says the network scraped more than 500 social-media channels and categorised individuals by location, age, profession, political orientation and arrest history. It then analysed approximately 51,944 archived messages from conversations to construct detailed psychographic dossiers on dozens of people inside Iran. The system was therefore not limited to broadcasting propaganda. It was also designed to understand specific audiences and individuals. Profiles could be used to decide what kind of message was most likely to resonate with a particular person, which political identity they appeared closest to and how they should be approached. Anthropic describes this as a structured targeting funnel rather than ad hoc social-media activity. That distinction is important in the Iranian context. Political activists, dissidents and opposition contacts inside Iran can face arrest and severe punishment. The report does not show that the dossiers directly led to arrests or other harm, but collecting and organising information such as arrest history and political affiliation adds a surveillance dimension to what would otherwise be described as an influence operation. A shared AI system for an influence network Anthropic found that the actors used a shared Claude-based platform named “Viktor”, with separate workspaces and persistent memory. Those memory files contained approved sources, prohibited words, account-management instructions and methods intended to reduce the risk of detection. One operator loaded MEK founding doctrine into the system as what the report called “strategic base data”, allowing others to reuse it across their work. This persistent-memory structure meant the AI did not have to be briefed from scratch for every task. Once doctrine, stylistic rules and operational constraints had been stored, the system could repeatedly produce material consistent with the network’s objectives. Anthropic says the same general playbook appeared across different workspaces despite the operators not sharing obvious account infrastructure. The network also used automated pipelines to coordinate Instagram posting schedules and tailor messages to different audiences. Some accounts initially avoided mentioning the Mojahedin at all, allowing material aligned with MEK/NCRI narratives to appear as neutral or independent political commentary. Content was distributed through the organisation’s own media ecosystem as well as accounts presented as ordinary news or activist profiles. Anthropic assessed the campaign as Category Two on its Breakout Scale: active on multiple platforms with distribution through NCRI-linked media properties and amplifier accounts, but without evidence of broad authentic penetration. Synthetic citizens and disguised organisational media The same infrastructure generated AI avatars presented as ordinary Iranians, complete with Persian audio, to promote Maryam Rajavi’s political programme. Anthropic says the synthetic nature of these personas was intentionally concealed. Operators also rewrote and redistributed content originating from MEK-affiliated media while stripping identifying features or presenting it through apparently independent accounts. The network’s political messaging targeted the Iranian government but also rival opposition currents, including monarchists and supporters of the Pahlavi camp. Anthropic documented fabricated video material attacking a member of the Pahlavi family and the use of the slogan “Neither Shah Nor Sheikh”, consistent with the NCRI’s broader competition with other opposition movements. That rivalry provides relevant context. Reuters describes the MEK as one of Iran’s principal organised opposition movements in exile and the dominant force behind the NCRI, led by Maryam Rajavi. Its relationship with other opposition currents is often contentious, while the extent of its support inside Iran remains uncertain. What can be attributed – and what cannot Anthropic’s attribution is unusually specific but still needs to be stated carefully. The company says its investigation linked the operation to MEK/NCRI and established that at least four participants worked for official NCRI media organisations. It also found a common operational playbook, committee review structures and repeated references to MEK leadership. On that basis, Anthropic said central tasking was likely. It nevertheless stopped short of saying it had proven that NCRI’s senior leadership directly ordered or managed every component of the operation. That caveat matters. The strongest public evidence supports describing GTG-84006 as a MEK/NCRI-aligned influence operation involving personnel from official NCRI media, rather than asserting that every action was directly commanded by the organisation’s top leadership. The broader significance of the case lies elsewhere. Earlier generations of synthetic media attempted to fabricate evidence: a photograph, a voice recording or a video. Here, AI was used to maintain an identity over time, remember doctrine, analyse targets and speak directly to real people while appearing to be someone they already trusted. The deepfake was no longer merely an artefact. It had become a participant in the conversation.

Un usuario de GTA Forums aseguró en 2023 que el próximo juego de Rockstar Games después de GTA 6 sería L.A. Noire 2. ▫️ Estaría ambientado en San Francisco. ▫️ La historia giraría alrededor del Asesino del Zodiaco. ▫️ En 2023 se encontraba en una etapa muy temprana de concepto y no llegaría hasta, al menos, 2030. ▫️ Rockstar buscaría recuperar el escaneo facial y llevar esta tecnología a un nuevo nivel. La publicación ha vuelto a ganar atención porque el mismo usuario compartió detalles bastante precisos sobre GTA 6 que posteriormente se confirmaron, como las citas entre Jason y Lucía, la presencia de strippers masculinos y que, en una etapa anterior del desarrollo, el juego llegó a plantearse con 4 protagonistas. #GTAV #RockstarGames #LANoire2

Doamna ambasadoare MAGA de la Atena e acuzata ca a inspirat căderea guvernului de la București, vinovat ca nu vrea sa cumpere pepeni cu 100 de dolari kilul de la Dăbuleni-A-Lago. Bine, nu e ambasadoare. E sales agent. E purtător de cuvânt al lăcomiei familiei si prietenilor lui Trump. E general in retragere din Armata Minciunii Naționale numita Fox News. O inteleg. Ce nu inteleg e de ce românii trebuie sa se ploconeasca in fata vânzătorilor de iluzii nucleare si gaz la preț de specula. De ce? Ca ne apară America? Cum sa ne mai apere cel mai important aliat vestic al Rusiei? Cum sa ne mai apere o administratie pentru care totul e de vânzare? Pai daca iese mai bine cu noi predați in partea ailaltă, credeți ca putem face ceva? Daca Rusia da 10 miliarde si noi avem doar doua, cam cum credeți ca va decide The Swampshinghton? Putem să-l dam jos si pe Patriarh, ca ăștia tot ne vând! Asta e esenta MAGA: doar America contează (si nici ea toată, doar fanii lui Big Orange). Restul: be damned! Restul sunt aliați de unică folosință. Clienți de țepe stars and striped. Fraieri olimpici cu parul creț, fura idealul din coteț! Mizeria asta cere un raspuns. Astept idei de la voi, caci liderii noștri încă mai strâng bani de microscop, să-și vadă testiculele! #MAGA #politică #România

The Deconstructionists and the Preservers The average person assumes that everyone wants the same things and merely disagrees about how to achieve them. But the social fracture we are living through is deeper: people no longer agree on what they want at all. Consider the conflicts dominating the news—crime, the border, online speech, and who raises children. Beneath each is a question rarely acknowledged: Does society corrupt human beings, or does it elevate them above their animal nature? If social constructs are oppressive, then every institution becomes suspect. Hierarchy, cultural norms, the family, and the nation appear to be cages designed to restrain a free creature. The only honest response, in this view, is to tear them down. The belief that society corrupts the individual is not fringe doctrine. It is the creed of much of the elite class governing the West. From Rousseau, who argued that man was born free until society placed him in chains, through Marx, who identified those chains as capital and class, to the postmodernists, who reduced institutions to masks for power, the thread remains unbroken. It is the philosophy of universities, the cultural industry, and the bureaucrats shaped by both. Opposing it is the older conviction of Hobbes and Hegel: that a person stripped of structure is not free, but frightened and dangerous, and that order is what improves him. Hobbes saw that without order, life becomes a war of all against all. Hegel believed that people become fully themselves through family, community, and the rational state. The divide, then, is not simply left against right. It is the deconstructionists against the preservers. The irony the demolishers never grasp is that freedom does not remain after every structure is cleared away. It requires personal responsibility as a cultural habit. When order is destroyed in the name of liberty, society begins to collapse. Something must bear the weight, and the state eventually fills the void—without moving gently. Liberty pursued through demolition produces, with grim reliability, the conditions of slavery. The deconstructionist imagines himself a liberator striking mankind’s chains. In truth, he is the architect of the cage.
