Russian Bots Flood Polish Social Media, Allegedly Aiming to Sway Public Opinion

Warsaw, Poland – May 31, 2025 – A recent video circulating on Polish social media platforms highlights concerns about the extensive use of Russian bots to manipulate public opinion. The video's creator, who chose to remain anonymous, claims a significant percentage of online engagement on certain topics is generated by these bots. "In Poland, the majority of comments are from Russian bots," the speaker states in the video. The video's focus is on the bots' alleged attempt to sow division among Poles regarding their stance on the European Union and Ukraine, and to influence the recent elections. While the claims require further investigation and verification, the video raises important questions about the integrity of online discourse and the potential for foreign interference in democratic processes. The video's analysis of election results and online commentary could be used to further investigate the extent of this alleged bot activity and its potential impact on Polish society. Further research from independent fact-checkers is needed to verify the accuracy of the claims made.
