What Do You Think Of The New Round Of Trolls?

A few days ago I found out that Amy became a troll. She used to be one of the most respected people here. She is now hanging out with homophobic, racist, consipracy-theory-believing trolls. To go to the community that she is now on, click on this link. https://worstjokesever.com/community

OUT WITH THE TROLLs

This post may include affiliate links.

A message from Cosmo:
1. Do not fight back with insults
2. Fight back with compliments, and stay in control of the narrative
3. Do NOT make it personal.
4. Remember: inside every troll, there is a human being
5. Do not respond with snarky comments
6. If there are multiple trolls together who are in control of the narrative, ask questions.
7. If you knew a troll who used to be an anti-troll, try to remind them of who they are.
8. Respond with good manners: if someone says kys, say no thank you.
9. Comment in a neutral manner.
10. If someone is getting cornered and pushed to their limits, immediately intervene. But only intervene by conversing with the victim in a casual manner.
11. REMEMBER: conversing like the trolls can cause you to become a troll. Anger causes more anger.
12. REMEMBER: trolls are insecure. They cover up their insecurities by bullying others due to their insecurities.
13. REMEMBER: the best way to help a troll about their insecurities is by making them talk about their insecurities.
14. Try to stay away from troll wars, unless necessary. Examples: attempting to reclaim a community; attempting to integrate a non-troll community into a troll community; trying to stop a troll from pushing one’s limit, etc…
15. REMEMBER: trolls can be extremely stubborn pricks. They stick to their opinions because they truly believe that they are correct.

A community is like an olive tree. It can be used for good or evil. It can be turned into sword handles, fences, stakes, cages, torture weapons, and more. Communities can be evil.
But it depends on perspective. Olive trees are more than just the evil that can be created from them.
If you look at a slice of olive wood, you see one of the most beautiful woods ever. The inside of olive trees represents the deep beauty inside a community. If you look at the outside of an olive tree, it looks extremely ugly. But it is an ordered ugliness. And if you look long enough, it looks beautiful.
The beauty of society does not come from a glance but from a long study of its outer structure.
Now, the roots. The roots expand far and wide. Everybody in a community has their roots.
Back to the wood. Wood is one of the most used building materials for thousands of years. Wood can be used to build houses, bridges, paper, scaffolding, paintbrushes, bowls, and so much more. The wood of an olive tree also represents the expansive dedication and versatility of a community. And the roots support us far and deeply.

And the care we put into olive trees. It takes a lot of nurturing and dedication to grow olive trees. With dedication and sacrifice of resources, comes a good and beautiful(ish) tree.
And finally, the fruit. The olive is one of the most important fruits in society. It can make olive oil, a flammable liquid. It has been in many societies. Myths have sprouted around it. And most importantly, olives are the fruit that brings more olive trees. A community influences those around it and plants the fruits for more communities. I planted my olive into the WJE, and a community will rise. That community is us, pandas.

Wait. No. We will not fight them. There is one more part of olive trees: the olive branch. The olive branch is a symbol of peace We will extend an olive branch. -Cosmo, bp member. Let the community that olive (pun intended) grow!

I think that they all are going through something and just need to be ignored. the last time this happened, they all eventually went away so hopefully that will happen this time. just downvote and ignore. i know it’s hard, but im hoping that this will work out.

Only joined a couple months ago. Disappointed to see the trolls, but also feel kinda bad for them because I don't think they realize what they're doing. Saw some of amy's old comments and was trying to figure out how such a genuinely nice and all-around amazing person ended up with that community. Heartbreaking really. Hopefully they all realize the harm they're causing and try to stop it. Best wishes to everyone.
