- incomingpain 1y ago>Between the Reply Guys playing devil’s advocate and You're a troll if you're playing devils advocate? I'm thinking they need some re-calibration. >It seems like people who post on r/unpopularopinion are all trolls. How do you moderate that? "all trolls" it seems to me their definition of a troll is rather vague and broad? >In the early 2000s, if I saw that, I would think, oh, that person’s trolling, they don’t genuinely mean they want to deport immigrants. But now, I do think there are some people who genuinely mean that. 9/11 happened in 2001. There wasnt anyone genuinely talking about deporting immigrants? Anti-muslim sentiment was pretty high is how i remember it. George W Bush had multiple big programs to send illegal immigrants home. >So most of the time, 99.999999 percent of the time, I just block. I’m really block-happy. So how do you 'out troll'? You block? lol what a terrible article.
