This is not a troll:
It is not a troll because it is fiction. A cartoon. A figment of the imagination. We do not have to search everywhere to protect each other from these kinds of trolls because they do not exist.
Internet Troll!
Does anyone not understand what is meant by an Internet troll?
These do exist. They come to social media to stir problems/cause flame wars. Does anyone not get this? Does anyone not know how to deal with Internet Trolls? (If you don't, here's the secret: give them no attention, since attention is what they seek. Easy enough, huh?)
The reason I ask is because anyone who comes onto this site who does not represent exactly what we expect is instantly labeled a troll.
Why? Is it our civic duty to announce this "fact" as if no one else can tell? Do we explode if that "fact" is not made public? Do we lose brownie points if we aren't the first people to state that "fact?" Will everyone die, get hurt, maimed, or otherwise fall into some deep crisis if this is not stated as quickly as possible? Can God not work, if we do not state this "fact" the very second it hits our brain? Can God not work, if we hold off on this "fact?" Can God not work if we never mention this "fact" at all?
And, is it a fact?
Because surely it seems more like a "Where's Waldo" game on this site. (I found him first! I found him first!)
But, yo! Look at that picture above? Have you ever found him first? That is a troll. Someone who is out to disrupt things -- cause anger and flame wars -- is an Internet Troll.
A. We know what a troll is, so you really don't have to be the first to find Waldo.
B. They aren't some vile, foul creature from a swamp. They are hurting people.
C. God is quite able to help hurting people.
D. We are quite able to help hurting people.
E. Calling everyone who is different a troll does NOT help hurting people.
How's this for an idea? Stop playing Where's Waldo! If you don't want to help someone who is hurting, then feel free to leave the place where they are showing their hurt. If you don't know how to help a hurting person, shut up! That, quite often, is how to help a hurting person.
But calling him/her a troll? Really, really doesn't help anyone. Not us. (Because it's not like we don't know what a troll is.) Not the person. Not even you!
Capiche? (Italian for, "Do you understand?)
I've had it up to here (hand whisking above my head) with the amount of truly hurting people this site pushes away simply because there is a need to play Where's Waldo, and the people coming ain't exactly like the people here already.
Get over it already! No one needs a Troll Guard. Consider yourself fired from a job that you never had! We serve God!
