internet trolls
Internet trolls are individuals who deliberately provoke or upset others online by posting inflammatory, irrelevant, or offensive comments. Their goal is often to elicit strong emotional reactions, disrupt conversations, or create chaos in online communities. This behavior can occur on social media platforms, forums, and comment sections of websites.
Trolling can take various forms, from harmless jokes to serious harassment. While some trolls seek attention or amusement, others may aim to spread misinformation or harm individuals. The impact of trolling can be significant, leading to negative experiences for those targeted and creating a toxic online environment.
