Trolls

You’ll never get rid of the trolls.

If I was writing “rules of the internet” then that would have to be #1.  Because trolls only have one goal- to exist.

Trolls don’t have agendas.  They don’t have have an axe to grind or a point to make.  Trolls don’t have principles.  They just want to exist.  They just want to cause chaos.  They just want to “watch the world burn” as it were.  They exist to exist.  To prove they can keep existing no matter what.

Not that there aren’t activists, agenda-types, or those with axes to grind.  But they’re not trolls.  They just capitalize on the work the trolls do.

Which is why you may eventually settle down the agenda.  But you’ll never stop the trolls.

Best thing to do is just starve them of the attention they sustain on.
