the Social coordinates of likes, shares and positive comments from the 348 members in the Facebook group 'The digital ambassadors'. The group's purpose is according to the description 'to spread the socialist messages, take on the political debates in the kommentarsporene and go in the right with the conscious or unconscious misinformation about the Party and our politics'.
But the group's administrator also urges that the members writes the critical issues and comments to the party's political opponents in the Left.
How do they:
In a lookup from the 8. may 2019 calls on one of the group's three administrators Anders Bak Cohr, there is souchef for the Socialists kampagneafdeling, the members of the group to comment on a notice from the then Danish prime minister Lars Løkke Rasmussen's Facebook profile.
'Dear friends. Now will Lars Løkke apparently lead social-democratic policy. After four years with milliardbesparelser on welfare, he will sudden put in. It is very disingenuous. Part like the following. And send some hard questions for the Loop here:'
the Advertisement relates to a proposal to increase the public velfærdstøtte with 69 billion. crowns.
even Though the only response to the lookup is coming from an ex-journalist and former communications consultant for the Social democrats Troels Trier get the comment likes from several members of the group.

- What are you thinking, that the group's purpose is?
- I think that it is a group that is for support. A kind of digital supportgruppe or what to call it. So we are being encouraged to go in and like and write a comment if it is something, we can go in for. But it is not the case, you will be kicked out if you do not do it.
- Have you been out and like in the past?
- I have not done it so much during the Mette Frederiksen, because I have been at odds in the policy. But I do it sometimes, when I can vouch for it.
-What do you think about that the Social democrats have such a group?
- I think that it is something that most parties have. But since they are secret, it's not something we know very little about.
- What do you think about that the group is secret?
- for some, it may well not be another. If it is now an open group, it would seem a little strange that we are asked to like and write. I will as well admit, that it is a little strange.
- Why do you think it is strange?
- Oh, it's to be called on to back up. Somewhere it should not be necessary.
- Why do you think so you do it?
- It is well to change a mood. Either a mood in relation to something that is positive or negative.
- It is very common
Ekstra Bladet has been in touch with the administrator Anders Bak Cohr to clarify whether it is 'to spread the socialist message, when it calls members of the group to ask tough questions to the party's opponents, or whether it is a regular troldehær, as you call organized groups, making use of profiles on the internet.
He refers to the political rapporteur, and medieordfører Jesper Petersen, who, however, neither has created or manages the group.
- It is very common for a political group to organise itself in such a way so that you can effectively disseminate its political message, he says to Ekstra Bladet.
When asked for his calls to comment on the political opponents to lookup, such as Lars Løkke Rasmussen, says he:
- It is part of being politically active to go in the political debate, when there is something you disagree with or when used wrong information or incorrect figures. When the Left has used his reign to erode velfærdsstøtten, is it sensible to criticize it, he says.
- There is not a troldehær, but a group of people working together for a common political message.
