Trollism: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 08:22, 1 July 2004

Trollism is an Ideology that idealizes the activities of trolls. Trollists not only accept the label troll but they are proud to "be a troll", they claim to be trolls. It's doubtful that this can be done without depriving the word troll of its essential meaning (negative judgement from a dictator or group perspective) or creating a logical paradoxon.

Seen from the outside trollism concentrates on the valid points and positive effects of trolling and neglects its de-constructive content. So it appears as a simplification. Sysopism and Trollism seem to be two sides of the same coin: misuse of power. One is the result of the other in a hen-egg relationship and each of these ideology claims to be necessary to control the negative effects of the other.

 Just to start the discussion. I hope as the newest troll I have the right to provoke it. -- hele314
