Slang / song lyrics
English term or phrase: VC crew
Part of lyrics from "Misfits" by Amy Stadt

So you got your little groups and gangs
You got your VIP
Your member-only things
Your happy-clappys and your VC crew
And if you get in their way, they got 10 on you

バーチャル・コミュニティ・グループ
Explanation:
I originally thought of ビデオ・チャット・グループ, but I'm guessing based on the context, the year the song was written and the age of the song writer at the time that this has something to do with internet groups. It also ties into the next line where if you attack one of the group's opinions, ten members of the group will attack back.
