What type of a person must you be, to be a troll on the internet?

… thought you were an insurance adjuster not a psychologist… learn something new every day I guess

A lawyer

Nah, some lawyers are good. Especially when you need one.

But the reason you need a good lawyer is because of other lawyers. And your good lawyer still extracts a heavy toll.

I think I just trolled on my bloody kansas thread, my bad.

Unfortunately, some consider individuals with differing opinions, beliefs, politics than themselves as trolls. Often, these so called 'trolls" make legitimate cases/claims and demand answers. Very often, when the opposing side cannot discredit the accusation or claim, but still believes the narrative they are pushing, then the opposing individual is labeled a troll, conspiracy theorist, kook, lunatic, anti-semite, fascist/Nazi, grifter, cheeto, deplorable, libtard, orange man hater, TDS you name it, etc, no matter which side one is on.

Just because someone whole heartedly disagrees with us does not mean they are a troll. Our job is to discredit them, with facts and truth, and prove to them why their opinion or stance is wrong, if it is indeed wrong. Not to shame them and stop the conversation by belittling them and calling them a troll. Nobody got anywhere by shutting down discourse, the only way forward is to face it. This is very very easy to do if we are on the side of truth, and NOT selling and pushing lies ourselves. Once we start pushing some falsehoods, then we have serious problems.

With that said, there are certainly people on the internet that stir the pot to create chaos. They are most certainly trolls and evil as well. I have zero use for them and they should be shut down, ridiculed, and called out for what they are because a true troll has no legitimate truth backing them. They do it for a very simple reason, and that is to create chaos.
