Michał Chmielewski wrote that the reach on social media no longer depended on the number of likes, shares, or comments. He compared posts with 1,000 likes and 6,000 views to those with 50 likes and the same number of views, questioning the logic behind such results. He claimed that posts criticizing the European Union, supporting Donald Trump, and presenting Vladimir Putin positively suddenly gained popularity. According to him, new accounts had a better chance of reach because profiles marked as anti-Trump, anti-Russian, or pro-European were at a disadvantage. He added that this could not be changed because platforms are private companies, and the situation fosters radicalization and the spread of false information in the electoral programs of extremist parties. As an example, he cited the unsuccessful attempt to initiate a referendum in Warsaw. Chmielewski wrote that there were many negative comments on social media regarding the management of the capital, which could create the impression that Rafał Trzaskowski would be almost immediately dismissed with the support of 80% of residents. As he pointed out, not even the 130,000 signatures needed to conduct a referendum were collected. He expressed hope that in the upcoming parliamentary elections in Poland, the outcome would not be decided by algorithms written in the USA. #media #polityka #dezinformacja (translated)

Marats Kasems continued to discuss his so-called list of members of the Oushen gang, which, according to him, included supporters of the deported Ragozin from Latvia. He described Alla Berezovska, number 40 on the list, as an advocate for pro-Russian individuals and claimed that she was excluded from the organization "Reporters Without Borders" for spreading misinformation. Regarding number 42, Vladimir Buzayev, Kasems wrote that he had long been a deputy of the Riga City Council, submitted complaints about Latvia to international institutions, and had been an associate of Tatjana Zhdanova. He linked number 45, Mikhail Fishman, and number 102, Natalia Sindeeva, to the TV channel "Dozhd" and expressed the opinion that they were offended by Latvia. On number 87, Alexey Yevdokimov, Kasems pointed out that he worked for "Sputnik Latvia" and published 15 articles there in 2017. According to Kasems, Yevdokimov left the portal not for ideological reasons, but because the chief editor Valentin Rozhentsov had not paid him for his work; he had complained to the media holding's management and demanded his honorarium. Kasems referred to number 167, Pavel Levushkan, as the oldest representative of the Levushkan family. About number 189, Vladimir Vodo, he wrote that the Russian citizen had lived in Lithuania, worked as a commentator for "Sputnik Lithuania," and was deported from Lithuania in 2024 for disloyal views towards the state. Number 195, Kristina Hudenko, he identified as a journalist for the Russian-language version of "Delfi," while number 159, Anatoly Golubov, was mentioned as the former editor-in-chief of this version, having served for 25 years. Kasems claimed that Golubov had long shaped the views of the people he labeled with a derogatory term. Kasems believed that the list of advocates itself testified to the correctness of Latvia's actions against Ragozin. He also questioned whether these people acted on their own initiative or on instructions, and whether Ragozin truly cared for them, or if his case was being used as a pretext to act against Latvia and its efforts to protect the country from propaganda. #Ragozins #propaganda #vatņiki #Delfi #sputnik #propaganda #Delfi #Ragozins (translated)

The conductor wrote that as a child he did not like older people because he had to let them sit on the bus and he heard insults from them for behaving otherwise. Nevertheless, he made room for them and stated that he treats them politely even today, although he does not cheer for them much.

An exception for him was an older woman who worked at their school. He wrote that he liked her for her character and sense of good and justice, and that she asked him the previous day if she could consider him her son. On his father's 80th birthday, he wondered if he should hug him. He stated that he loved his father and respected him very much, but due to their upbringing, they did not hug.

Vojtěch Boháč wrote that Donald Trump had declared the day before that Russia was behaving well towards Ukraine and not causing it too much harm. According to Boháč, this statement came a few hours after a drone hit a park where children were playing, killing two girls aged one and eight, and injuring seven other children. Boháč questioned whether Trump was bribed or acted out of significant incompetence. However, he added that in his opinion, the US president was primarily in a difficult situation: in less than two years, elections for Congress were due, in which, according to Boháč's estimate, Trump faced defeat, and afterwards he would have to seek a way to restore his reputation. Boháč also wrote that Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping were planning a trilateral meeting with Trump in China on the sidelines of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit. According to him, it could take place at a time when Trump would be angry at his surroundings after an electoral defeat and overlook his own responsibility. He believed that Putin and Xi could take advantage of this and offer him an agreement that Trump would see as a way to a historical legacy. He described November as a possible turning point, after which, in his view, "Trump 3.0" could emerge in a strengthening alliance with Putin and Xi Jinping. He added that he had written a commentary on the situation, which he published in another post. #DonaldTrump #Rusko #Ukrajina (translated)
