“…The differences lie in the fact that young people aged from 18-25 were likely to associate collecting petitions with an event taking place on the Internet that does not require a detailed study, while young adults aged from 25-30 associated a petition with an official event (the document), carried out in an offline format, on the streets, that requires serious and careful consideration. This aspect partly confirms a greater influence of the Internet technologies on young people aged from 18-25 and their greater activity on the Internet (Brodovskaya & Huang, 2019;Brodovskaya et al, 2017).…”

“…For example, the research question of political activism and propensity to protest has received widespread attention. Brodovskaya and colleagues (Brodovskaya et al 2017) used online services to monitor social media, from which they extracted social media posts relevant to protest political activity in Ukraine in 2013-2014.

The current study is a content analysis of news comments posted on the Russian social network VKontakte to investigate the expression of opinions on material well-being. Based on NLP methods, we analyze the main groups of expression, which are considered in the context of formulating evaluations and appealing to social norms. We analyze the content of discourse at the micro-level; analyze how attitudes towards the topic of material well-being are expressed through evaluative and normative statements; and identify the key actors of the discussions. The analysis shows the prevalence of generalized statements, which consider their country and people as a whole, opposed to the outside world. The most significant problems, such as price growth, unemployment, are not actively discussed. One's own situation is usually characterized by neutral or positive assessments, while a generalized judgment about the life of the "Russian people" is predominantly assessed negatively. It is shown that on the basis of a negative assessment of the current state of affairs a person appeals to the social norm. A significant share of normative statements are prescriptions, which are less connected with references to specific individuals or organizations. Thus, the discussions do not show any tendency for Russian citizens to impute to the country's leadership the obligation to take measures to change life for the best.
