One who tries to shame or discredit by feigning offense on behalf of groups to which they don’t belong. Critically, a concern troll never contributes anything to improve matters. The criticism is the point, not righting the wrong.
Concern Troll: “You didn’t put alt text on your image! You’re just another ableist pig who hates the unsighted community!”
OP: “I’m sorry. What alt text would be helpful to a blind person?”
Concern Troll: “How should I know? Do you see ‘free accessibility training’ in my profile? Educate yourself on your own time!”
