That’s something that’s hard for me to grasp. The New York Times has an illuminating article on internet trolls, as noted by Jon Lebkowsky and others.
From the article: “All vigorous debates shade into trolling at the perimeter; it is next to impossible to excise the trolling without snuffing out the debate.”
I really don’t want to agree with this statement, but it’s hard not to.
