HN is exactly the kind of strategic target for these guys. HN is not widely read in Russia, but it's widely read by power users, people who translate and re-print tech news on russian websites, etc. Hell, I'd say that half of decent articles from Habrahabr (one of most influencial russian collective blogs on tech) are translations from HN frontage. So, it's only natural to create a left-leaning, anti-US climate in a website like HN and others.

It's also almost religiously policed by people who don't seem likely to appreciate shills.

Nobody likes shills. That doesn't stop them from being effective.

No, the relentless policing does.
