Spread this around. Name and shame anyone who is engaging with this company or its products. Unfollow and unsubscribe even if it hurts. Refund your tickets for any convention that lets them speak. Do not let fascism into your retro gaming hobby, how we respond to this will be a defining moment.

Notably, Jarosław Wolski, the Polish political scientist who was a primary source of the AfD social media bot claim, has now retracted his statement and apologised (more of this, please!). German journalists have also confirmed the graph was fake and AI-generated.

Apologies and Correction. I would like to apologize to all Readers for providing false information and a graphic suggesting that bot activity around AfD had dropped by 56%. According to the findings of @niebezpiecznik, which cites the opinion of the Cemas research institute, the Hasso Plattner Institute, and the "Polisphere" think tank, there has been no permanent and measurable decrease in pro-AfD posts. Moreover, the original graphic in German turned out to be Al-generated. Unfortunately, my post with the disinformation reached millions of views, for which I would like to apologize to all readers once again. Of course, I take full responsibility for what I did, and simply and humanly, I am ashamed that I misinformed you. I also apologize to the contested opponents who were the first to point out that I was wrong. To avoid further disinformation, I have deleted the post. From now on, in topics not strictly related to the military, I will adopt the principle of providing citations or original sources whenever possible. Or clearly stating their absence/unclear source of information so that it is visibly evident in the post. JW. Rate this translation:.! A German journalist has tracked down the original graphic that sparked a wave of controversial (to put it mildly, untrue) reports yesterday and today about a drop in activity from Russian bots/trolls. He created it-"24-year-old steward Frank"—and marked it as ...generated by Al (which we already suspected yesterday). Unfortunately, the politicians who shared this material further failed to keep that marking (intentionally or by accident 1ºr) and didn't indicate the source either. What's more, the German research institute Cemas, which deals with disinformation, the Hasso Plattner Institute, and the Polisphere think tank have officially X denied observing any drop in the number of posts that could be explained by an attack on Yandex. "Neither the activity of existing bots nor the rate of creating new ones has declined, as shown by the data we're collecting." Well, those are data from Germany, though. Meanwhile, in Poland, Minister Siemoniak said that "ABW has noted a radical drop in the activity of Russian bots online. This is a phenomenon observed worldwide after the bombing of three data centers." But ABW hasn't publicized anything on this matter so far. Here's hoping they do. That would be something!! For now, we know that "worldwide" apparently means everywhere except Germany...

Divest from Harry Potter and JKR, y'all. It's okay to feel sad about no longer engaging with something that meant a lot to you, but a fictional world that funds a very real assault on trans rights will never be more meaningful than caring about the safety of trans folks.

Welcome to #TransTuesday! There is NO ethical consumption of Harry Potter Not the books, movies, or tv show. Not licensed games or merch. Not fanfic. Not even pirated. EVERY bit keeps the franchise alive and enables JKR's transphobia If you truly care about trans people, you need to let it die

Hi, I’m a sighted alt text user! Here are some reasons I use it: - Slow Internet on an airplane - I’m over 40, I have no idea who that celebrity is - Bluesky broke images again - My vision sucks and that text is too small to read otherwise - Conveys further context and authorial intent

When Gregor Samsara awoke one morning from troubled dreams he found he had died and been reincarnated into the animal realm. Reborn from a beetle's egg, he could now think only of seeking detritus to eat and surviving long enough to mate before dying and being reincarnated once again.
