Here's a way of looking at these (or this) troll(s) and the broader mentality behind trolling:
They partly want to destroy this website, but they're just as much along for the ride. After this site is barren and absolutely hopeless, where does a troll go? Somewhere else. It's a love-hate relationship; they pretend this site is pointless, but it's important to them. I'm sure it's already obvious, but this statement of littlegirlrapedandsodomized is a pretense:
"This place is like that movie One Flew Over The Coocoo's, if all the "trolls" (Jack Nicholson) were to leave it'd be all pleasant with Nurse Rachet "come take your medicine" and whether they know it not even the mental patients want that."
He's implying this site somehow keeps us in a state of 'blissful ignorance', that we're 'slave to the system', but this has nothing to do with his true motivation. He cares nothing for our state of mind or well-being, he's just trying to further fuck with us through philosophizing and diversion. You can't let a use speech to obscure your understanding of him, never trust anything a troll tells you, unless you understand them well enough to filter through the bullshit on your own.
While they have a general disdain towards the 'less englightened', normal users, they need them; exploitation is the troll's source of validation. For the most part, unless you're really good, trolls aren't terribly effective at trolling each other, they're too cynical (and don't give enough of a shit) to take standard troll-insults seriously--this is why it's important to think like a troll, if you understand the mechanics, they have no power. With no one to belittle or one-up, the troll has no purpose.
In a nutshell, it's about dominating other people.
But, provided you don't allow yourself to be a victim, a troll can be amusing.
Why do you guys report sincere stuff?
