Abstract
⺠The PageRank model of opinion formation on directed networks is proposed. ⺠It is tested on networks of the Universities of Cambridge and Oxford, LiveJournal, and Twitter. ⺠It is shown that the society elite can impose its opinion on the society. ⺠Bistability appears for an elite with divided opinions. ⺠Totalitarian opinion is more strongly pronounced for the LiveJournal and Twitter networks.
