Internet Trolls

Trolls on the internet are becoming more common every single day. They will interact with any type of post to stir up some drama and divide people. Internet trolls will comment under any tweet, regardless of the original context, to voice their unwanted “opinion” on the matter. If the original post has to do with something negative that is happening in this world, they could reply with a counter argument stating that what is happening is actually good. Trolls even post in the comments of those mourning the deceased to mock their death. On Twitter, the most common phrase is “well maybe if *insert name* stanned *insert kpop group*” along with “anyway stan *insert kpop group*. This most recently occurred with the death of Disney star Cameron Boyce in July. Trolls were in the comments of media posts replying with tweets like this, which made a lot of people very angry. Trolls don’t just stop there. Since the current president is heavily active on twitter, and is not favored at all by the majority of social media users, in the replies of Trumps tweets one can find many internet trolls along with supporters and those that are opposed. However, sometimes it can be difficult to spot the trolls from the Trump supporters. What is posted on social media can affect politicians and the supporters. One tweet from years ago that is controversial now can be brought up and shake up the whole internet and suddenly cancel culture has begun. Internet trolls can be dangerous and interacting with them can cause a major headache, so it is best to just ignore, report and block their accounts.

A lot of people enjoy the kind of trolling that illuminates the gullibility of the powerful and their willingness to respond.
