I'm from Ukraine. Since 2004 'political protest person' jobs, have been popular over there. Different demographics are needed for different causes. Sometimes the political technologists are looking for older ladies. Other times they need a young crowd. One time I heard a woman say they paid them with grain for standing around, downtown, for an hour or two, waving flags they were provided. I now realize, looking back, how many events were staged, downtown capital of Ukraine, for political reasons. There used to be a lot of free music concerts downtown on the weekends. People just randomly would stop and watch and listen for a while before being on their way. One such concert in June of 2011 had many large Ukrainian flags in the crowd. I always wondered where people got the flags with pole, so fast, if they are random people walking downtown. Well, now, i think, these were specially placed people, with flags placed throughout the crowd to evoke nationalistic feelings. This was political technology in play, not actual, real people standing with Ukrainian flags.
