Trolls are reinforcing the bubble by "proving" that everyone outside of it is purely an asshole with no intent to have a conversation, merely to insult and ridicule and try to cause people to leave the forum.
The problem is the labeling of them as trolls, is what I meant.
There is no such thing as trolls, that person you call a troll is making a joke or making a point and you're too far inside your own bubble to not call them an asshole.
No, the person who's harassing someone for being different isn't making a joke or a point. They're harassing someone for being different.
People who try to make others commit suicide don't have a valid point.
Okay. I believe you.
I'm not familiar with those.
The sorts of things I've seen are more like Berta Lovejoy / Doritan Cheeto.
The few, the proud, the unwilling to be quietly wrong in their own corner.
You need us. :)
Nobody needs the people who harass others and attempt to ridicule them into silence.
Incorrect without further qualification.
There are people in the set of "others" who very much deserve harassment and ridicule--consider people actively working against the common good, like Scientologists or other online trolls or robber barons or city bosses.
Internet trolls are the people who dox others and drive them to suicide.
We can achieve more without them than with them.
"If you don't agree with the person who made this video why are you posting here?!?! Get a life troll!"
Trolls is the heroes of the internet, the diversity.
