Actually, question for the class. Looking at the posts from **Humpy** and **SA** on the subject of the **Tangerine Dream Machine** , how sure are we that they are actually different people? Because they sound eerily similar. Either that or they’ve both been turned into 15 year old girls who think that Trump is a rock star. _You guys just don’t get him. He’s sooo dreamy. I could listen to him talk all night. He’s sooo smart. You’ll see. He’s the best._ ---

**Einstein was a Hippie** is the only true troll listed so far…say, how about we don’t make lists? ---

> [@aldiboronti](#): > > You honor me, Sir. Should we not just widen the scope and call all Republican supporters on this board trolls? It would certainly save much needless verbiage. Some Republican supporters on this board wouldn’t deserve it. Personally, I think you doomed yourself with that “Lookit Obama’s reading list! No Shakespeare! Whotta doof! Herp-a-derp-a-berp-a…!” ---

If the Gray Ladies were passing around a single brain cell for Perseus to steal, they’d still be one up on these stooges. You don’t have to troll all the time to be a troll. They troll often enough that I have them all on ignore. I’ll admit it took longer for octopus and aldiboronti, but they did cross the threshold. And, no, I do not have all Republicans, conservatives, or even Trump supporters on ignore. Just the ones that decided to troll. Well, and Starving Artist, because he just fucking pisses me off and never seems to have anything of value to say. Still, he’s not a troll. ---

> [@Doctor\_Jackson](#): > > My take, based on media reports and these boards: > Republicons - money grubbing, God loving, look out for #1, pay your own freaking way, get a job and get off my lawn swindlers > Demogods - know everything, never been wrong, assume they win all arguments by default (see first 2 characteristics), bleeding heart, panty waist income redistributors > Independunces - honestly, without basis in fact, think they have a chance to win any election higher than dog catcher. > Libertaruins - anarchists in patriotic attire, share delusions of influence with Independunces Dude, you started an ATMB thread because you were upset that people were being mean to Trump. Don’t try to pretend you’re some equal opportunity guy. ---

> [@aldiboronti](#): > > You honor me, Sir. Should we not just widen the scope and call all Republican supporters on this board trolls? It would certainly save much needless verbiage. Yip. That’s why Bricker and Oakminster and Shodan and Shagnasty and other decent Republicans are on the list. You just aren’t one of them. You’re not even American, yet you’re just like all the other Republitrolls, particularly since Trump was elected. You do not act in a way that is distinguishable from the other people on the list. ---

> [@aldiboronti](#): > > You honor me, Sir. Should we not just widen the scope and call all Republican supporters on this board trolls? It would certainly save much needless verbiage. No. There are posters of a conservative inclination on this board who aren’t listed here and would probably never be singled out like that. You’ll also note that of the ones who are listed, there is disagreement about whether some are truly ignorant trolls (and conversely, no disagreement at all about some of the others). It’s not about being right-wing, it’s about being so fucking stupid and fact-averse that the poster in question is functionally a troll whether it’s intentional or just due to a delusional propensity to take an extreme right-wing position on absolutely everything regardless of the facts. ---

> [@jayjay](#): > > PAPER TOWEL TUBES Just when I had succeeded in wiping that post from my memory… 😑 Are we limiting this to people on the board? I’m asking because the fuckwicket who was roaming the office at lunch randomly yelling “MURICA” would certainly qualify. ---

If the Gray Ladies were passing around a single brain cell for Perseus to steal, they’d still be one up on these stooges. I disagree with the entire list, given that it’s supposed to be a list of trolls. My contempt for **Clothahump** is as broad as the ocean and twice as deep, but I swear to God, I get one more reported post 'cause he went into a thread that’s wall-to-wall “You suck for voting Trump,” and posted, “No, you suck for voting Clinton!” I’m gonna start banning people at random. It’s the fucking Pit, people. You’re _supposed_ to be assholes to each other in here. The same goes for **OMG!** and **doorhinge** , double for **octopus** and **aldiboronti** , and whoever suggested **HurricanDitka** should take an ax to their computer before they post stupid again. ---

With that said, other than maybe **Einstein** I don’t agree with the list. Jerks, most of them, yes. Pinheads, some, sure. ---

Perhaps the tone of condescension and smug yet unearned superiority leads to unfortunate backlashes and alienates those who are on the fence? A few thousand people less annoyed by left wing nuttery and Mrs. Clinton would be president today.
