It's too close to call, but fucking hell, the liberal candidate just said how he wants to build bridges and be a president of all Poles, the conservative one is quoting the Bible and says how he would fight the evil other side – and yes, he's a former pimp lol. I hope the pro-European side will win but for fucks sake, half of my country just voted for a fucking gangster. This is insane any way one looks at it...
Edit: it doesn't matter, it seems like we're fucked. No official results yet, but it looks terribly bad with the late poll results.
Yeah the thing that worries me with Cambridge Analytica is how little we hear about its successors. That definitely wasn't the end of the experiment or its competitors. For a start most of its staff formed a new company Emerdata Limited and later Auspex international.
It may have changed now that Trump and Russia exposed the alt/far rights as clowns, but before that this sub was (still is ?) an alt/far right cesspool when social issues are brought up.
The Protocols of the Elders of Zion is a fabricated text purporting to detail a Jewish plot for global domination. Largely plagiarized from several earlier sources, it was first published in Imperial Russia in 1903, translated into multiple languages, and disseminated internationally in the early part of the 20th century. It played a key part in popularizing belief in an international Jewish conspiracy.
The text was exposed as fraudulent by the British newspaper The Times in 1921 and by the German newspaper Frankfurter Zeitung in 1924. Beginning in 1933, distillations of the work were assigned by some German teachers, as if they were factual, to be read by German schoolchildren throughout Nazi Germany. It remains widely available in numerous languages, in print and on the Internet, and continues to be presented by antisemitic groups as a genuine document. It has been described as "probably the most influential work of antisemitism ever written".
I used to play Fortnite with a friend in Belgorod, and despite sanctions, yadda yadda, we've never had any issues sharing anything back and forth with one another - be it media, news, etc.
