I don’t recall this poster, **mundylion** , but they have been around since 2010. They just dropped this turd in P&E. Sounds like a MAGA troll to me.

They show up every so often to drop another right-wing propaganda turd in the punchbowl while pretending to be the voice of reason. They rarely stick around afterwards.

Oh I do, he’s practically a right wing caricature yet at least appears sincere. Though I strongly suspect he dials it up to 11 specifically to troll the libs.

To me it’s **worse** to be sincere about these kinds of comments.

It’s like Trump; he is so absurd he looks like someone trying to imitate Trump but exaggerating, yet it’s just Trump.

Be careful linking posts from this thread. It ends up calling posters trolls outside of the pit due to the back-linking.

No, but outright lying about the contents of other posts is rather jerkish behavior.

True. Too true. And assholes are still annoying.

Some are entertaining, but that one is not.

I was going to engage the troll but I realized there is no point. This kind of person isn’t hear to learn stuff, they’re here to tell us why we are wrong. 100% immunity to reasoning. But I take consolation in the fact that this poster lives in hell by their own choice. They will never, ever live in the world they want to live in no matter who is in charge. And they’ll wake up every day and confirm that choice and commit themselves to it again and again and again.

Hijack alert:

Wow. Thank you, @DWMarch. I don’t have a dog in this trollhunt race, but you know how sometimes you’ll read or hear something that goes “click” and suddenly you feel better and are able to get a new perspective on things? This did for me. I get really depressed and angry when someone is a continual jerk and asshole (like my Trumper brother in law) - I think I can deal with it better by remembering your post.

Hijack over.

He was fairly obvious. Hopefully he gives up now.

Werewolf dude in the ‘Democracy dies with us’ thread is beyond obvious trolling.

My opinion, worth what you paid for it.

I responded early on because his ‘Oh im just popping in here for a chuckle at you silly people getting the vapours over this minor issue’ schtick was too much. He is still going on and reeling in the responses.

This poster checks all the troll points for me.

-Arrogant ‘rational bystander’ crap  
-‘I’m above all you silly people and your emotional reaction’ routine  
-relentless weasleing responses  
-vacuos argument

I don’t recall this poster from earlier, but his behaviour in this thread disgusts me

How many posts between, say, 6 months ago and when he registered?

Pretty sure the werewolf is a recently revived sock. They are clever enough to clearly avoid violating board rules.

I called him out for it right away to his face, because it’s the Pit.

His defense was that he wasn’t trolling, but he was saying something intentionally inflammatory just to rile people up.

Um, that’s the definition of trolling.

Of course, in the Pit it seems like a bit of trolling is acceptable so I doubt anything will come of it, and I wouldn’t expect anything to come of it. And I’m okay with that, I know what the Pit is.

I do think it’s worth noting though, so that in the future anyone dealing with him can be notified that this guy does troll the board. To me, even if you can avoid moderation by doing it here, you still have no credibility.

Absolutely not ruling that out; in fact I got a bit of a sock vibe from that account even before this latest thing.
