2005 - people don't know what a troll is and take everything seriously
2015 - everyone knows what a troll is and nobody takes it seriously
2020 - everyone knows what a troll is but takes it seriously anyway

we're at a sweet spot where you can say practically anything dishonest and people will get triggered, and some people find that funny

This behavior is often a coping mechanism for insecurity. Chronic trolls are typically individuals grappling with deep-seated insecurities or unresolved personal issues. For them, the internet becomes a playground where they can provoke emotional reactions from others. Your attempts to correct or argue with them only provide the nourishment they seek - a temporary boost to their self-esteem. They have no interest in a fair exchange of ideas - trying to reason with them is like playing chess against an opponent who will just sweep the pieces away and announce themselves the winner.

That said, there can be good-natured trolling, especially among friends, where it’s done for mutual fun and everyone is in on the joke.

Need gold coins for fancy bridge.

It's easier than trying to build self esteem the conventional way, like accomplishments.

And goat is delicious.

Some just enjoy it. Kind of like that annoying kid in class behaves the way he does.

Because stupid people often think they're smart, so it's fun to show them they aren't.

For fun i suppose?
