Troll

Ukraine and Lithuania

Some Republicans want to betray Taiwan, but DC will not let them succeed. Some Democrats want to betray Israel, but DC will not let them succeed. Anyone familiar with America’s defense and national interests knows why. But I often ask God in prayers, what about Ukraine and Lithuania? Why has Ukraine not received this blessing? Why does Lithuania have to bow to Russia? In relationships and work, many women, including my own mom, call me a scumbag, a heartless person, and irresponsible. But I want the United States to take responsibility of Lithuania and Ukraine. I spent two years trolling everyone I love, even some innocent little girls. I hope the United States starts to face up to the problems in Ukraine and Lithuania. They are your shorty, too, they are your boo thang, too. Sephardic Jewish law requires the man to take care of all his wives in polygamy.

What is a Troll

A successful troll can be successful, by adopting a point of view contrary to their own and exploiting its weaknesses before a fellow proponent. A troll knows his enemy by trolling as his enemy.

A good troll plays a polemicist, with the hope of exposing the arrogance and irrationality of his target. A naive and unsuspecting victim is much more likely to deal a statement in absolutes if approached by someone appearing equally vehement of the contrary. A troll must sustain their position, however unlikely or immoral it may be. Ecumenicism does not exist in the world of troll.

In is no coincidence that induction of emotional outbursts in others is a salient feature of successful trolling. Indeed, it has been suggested that this property allows for a redefining of trolling as a critical analysis of human nature by socially deconstructive commentary.

In addition to being a valuable addition to discourse, trolling is a leisurely activity. One who opposes conventional wisdom need not be a revolutionary nor fool, merely a connoisseur of the fruit of uncertainty which gives so many imperious souls the indigestion that is rage.

Trolling is trying to get a rise out of someone. Forcing them to respond to you, either through wise-crackery, posting incorrect information, asking blatantly stupid questions, or other foolishness. However, trolling statements are never true or are ever meant to be construed as such. Nearly all trolled statements are meant to be funny to some people, so it does have some social/entertainment value.

“Trolling” isn’t simply “harmful statements”. Intentionally insulting/libelous statements are “flaming”. Just as bad as trolling is “Feeding the Trolls”. This is when people say stuff that they know will prompt someone to respond with a trolled reply and/or replying to comments that are blatantly from a troll. This is especially true when a troll first makes his comment/reply, and (usually many) people respond, either trying to correct the troll, or express anger at the statement. At that point, the trolling was successful and has been fed. When encouraged by success and feeding, trolls often return.

The most essential part of trolling is convincing your victim that either a) truly believe in what you are saying, no matter how outrageous, or b) give your victim malicious instructions, under the guise of help.

Trolling requires decieving; any trolling that doesn’t involve decieving someone isn’t trolling at all; it’s just stupid. As such, your victim must not know that you are trolling; if he does, you are an unsuccesful troll.

Signs that your trolling is succesful:

  • Your victim screaming in all-caps at you.
  • Personal attacks (Calling you a retard, idiot, etc).
  • Being an Internet Tough Guy.
  • Making a crude remark, before quickly logging off before you can retort.

A good troll has properly calculated actions to cause as much disruption as possible.
