OP reminds me a lot of this guy I know about, born around 2000 years ago, fell in love with an egyptian prostitute, lived his life honestly and to a code, tried to elevate the poor and downtrodden until he was finally trolled to death by one of his most trusted companions.

OP is Julius Caesar

The only time I've really gone off and actually posted in people's space vs just laughing at them here where no one important sees it is bitcoiners on reddit. Because bitcoiners are horrible people and I have no qaulms about giving them poo poo.

are the same thing!

I don't get how anyone can take the internet seriously. The internet is basically a MMORPG where the main goal is to gently caress with everyone else.

Yet some people surely do. And there are those who every day make the choice to mock or victimize them because they fail to engage internet interactions with a sufficient amount of ironic detachment.

this mode of apprehension isn't phenomenon of knowledge
I mostly use trolling in specific situations as a rhetorical device to walk someone into realizing some position they're holding as being hypocritical or whatever, if i felt they were acting on bad faith assumptions. The other common use for me would just be what I would call "bond trolling," or the usual hazing of people in your social group in a non-malicious way as a sort of natural social ego control.

Everyone on SA is an anime-loving human being virgin, and you probably shouldn't care what any given goon thinks of you. I do agree that this community hates itself too much, tho.
