A person who deliberately tries to annoy people online to get a reaction. This can also be done IRL, but is most commonly done when hackers go onto multiplayer games and screw up everyone's game or when typing deliberately stupid comments onto social media and waiting for replies.
-In-Game example-
Player 1: You have to jump to the other side!
Player 2: Okay, I'll go for it! *jumps*
Troll: *hacks and makes player 2 fall*
Player 2: Crap! Someone hacked me!
-Social Media example-
Troll: man i hate those mooslums!!!!1!!1
Triggered people: What is wrong with you? You have completely disregarded a country and have shown great amounts of disrespect. This is why people hate America.
-Real life example-
Friend: Hold on a sec, someone's at the door *walks away*.
Troll: *shakes up friend's Coca Cola bottle*
Friend: Oh, it was just the mailman. *absent-mindedly opens bottle and it spills everywhere*
Troll: HAHAHAHA!
Friend: I hate you!

A journalism site that has also branched onto YouTube with videos. They make content that is widely hated yet loved at the same time. It just depends on your political views.
Many people hate them for their click bait titles and posts that are 'so relatable', which basically means they are very obvious and not thought provoking. Buzzfeed is also hated for how they will twist and bend the truth just to get their way. They'll create fake news but accuse good news channels of doing the same. They fight for minorities to be free of stereotypes by stereotyping majorities, and say it's not okay to stereotype but let minorties do this to majorities since they aren't in power. This hypocrisy causes people to hate Buzzfeed.
Despite all this hate, Buzzfeed gets a lot of love, too. Some people enjoy their comedy posts and find them funny. They have made entertaining series, for example their show called The Try-Guys, where four average men try crazy things, is pretty funny. Some people think they are making a difference with their political videos. There are also lots of videos/posts with interesting facts that earn Buzzfeed some love. The main thing thst people love about Buzzfeed is that they offer a lot of content, and most people can find something that they enjoy.
Whether you love it or hate it, Buzzfeed down to its core is just a jouralism company who owns a website and different YouTube channels.
