I was there 3000 years ago when the interwebs was just starting

and trolls were seen as trouble makers who would post to get people riled up and arguing . They thought it was fun and they liked to disrupt.

Now legacy newspapers and tv are trolls, posting bait to rile people up to get hits. They don't even believe half the shit they post.

It's not good enough, we deserve better.
