AI-generated videos promoting Poland’s exit from the European Union have appeared on Polish-language social media, featuring non-existent, attractive young women advocating for “Polexit”.

One TikTok account called “Prawilne Polki” published content showing women dressed in T-shirts bearing Polish flags and patriotic symbols, European analytics collective Res Futura said. The content targeted audiences aged 15 to 25.

The videos featured statements including: “I want Polexit because I want freedom of choice, even if it will be more expensive. I don’t remember Poland before the European Union, but I feel it was more Polish then.”

    If I lived in Russia, I probably wouldn’t want to fight a civil war. I’d just leave.

    I think that the problem that the Kremlin is going to face isn’t a civil war, but a combination of population leaving and having a hard time attracting immigration. Like, sure, the people in power get control of mines and oil wells and such, but they’re going to erode the country with policies like this.
