Include a basic definition of what you consider trolling. Because people seem to deem a huge variety of things trolling. Silly comments are fine but no direct personal insults.

    I troll everyone on occasion. Really just depends on the context. I do think I’d need to know your definition of nazi though.

      this article is a pretty good examination of the term

      Fascist regimes are characterized by authoritarian governance, the suppression of democratic institutions, and the concentration of power in the hands of a few. Redemption rule saw similar tendencies in the South, where democratic processes were subverted (with open terror) to maintain white supremacy.

      pretty much what we have in the states right now, and i would extend the name “nazi” to those on the bottom rung who support the nazi regime, even though they fight tooth and nail to distance themselves from being nazis-- if someone’s talking about “antifa” (anti-fascist, note) as if it’s some evil organization that’s trying to replace white people, then it’s a safe bet that person is a nazi
