- spdionis 8y agoProbably the volunteer ones are the most realistic and dangerous.
- Cthulhu_ 8y agoYup, I'm fairly sure the online Trump hype train was 10% trolls and 90% people tagging along for the ride. Then again it died reeeally fast right after the election, so now I'm not sure anymore.
- thetrumanshow 8y agoOr more abstractly: influencers and followers. What makes them trolls, exactly? Also, no surprise things die down after an election, since it’s not the hot topic anymore.
- r00fus 8y agoHow certain are you that they're actually volunteers? Astroturf seems to be a lot more lifelike these days.
- swarnie_ 8y agoTake a browse through any EU geographical subreddit. The paid and unpaid trolls are easy to spot.
