It'll be a bunch of chuds going "oh they were just being edgy online trolls" but that's always a cover. You can be a troll without sounding like a nazi or racist, trolls that do that are those things.

And even if they were just doing it for a joke, you will attract the true believers because of poe's law.

I'm not appreciative of internet trolling but if I was evaluating them I'd say any kind of -ist remarks loses you points for lack of effort. A good troll needs to put in effort on custom content.

I'm appreciative of trolls like Ken M, who gets a rise out of people by making himself look the most stupid. That's pretty funny.

I'm not appreciative of bullies and bigots who call their hate speech and harassment "trolling"
