Abstract
The article presents the results of the consideration of protest mobilization triggers in the Russian Federation and the Republic of Belarus in 2020–2021. The applied research methodology is based on a hybrid strategy that combines cognitive mapping, social media analysis and event analysis. As a result, the authors reveal that the primary mobilization of protest was carried out based on a resonant event in the political sphere. To build an engaged audience, economic and social discourses were used. Protest moderators use value-influencing techniques and manipulative technologies that perform the task of scaling and forming attitudes of agreement with the ideas being promoted.
