Гимговы ватаги

Гимговы ватаги - ватаги людьов с державных верстов безпеки, каки робют в межугимге, кабы гонять и бесчестить правильных блоггеров, заказывать вольготному обсуженню розных премметов, и спевать публично мшенне, како выгодно пределенной володе.

This phenomenon has been discovered in RuNet by a group of investigative journalists led of Anna Polyanskaya, a former assistant to the Russian politician Galina Starovoitova [1]

They found the appearance of organized and fairly professional “Squads”, composed of ideologically and methodologically identical personalities, who work in practically every popular liberal and pro-democracy blogs and internet newspapers of RuNet in Russian blogosphere. Troll squads appeared suddenly on Russian language forums only in 1999. They have been presumably organized by FSB, according to Polyanskaya and her collegaues. [2]

The people from the Internet “squads” have a number of distinct features some of which are the following:

   * Boundless loyalty to Vladimir Putin and his circle
   * Respect and admiration for the KGB and FSB
   * Hatred of dissidents and human rights organizations and activists, political prisoners and journalists, especially Anna Politkovskaya and Sergei Kovalev.
   * Anti-Americanism and anti-Westernism.
   * Accusation of Russophobia against everyone who disagrees with them.
   * A favorite method of the Squad is to accuse their opponents of being insane.
   * Low cultural level
   * Round-the-clock presence on forums. At least one of the uniform members of the brigade can be found online at all times, always ready to repulse any “attack” by a liberal.
