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!”

Pauper Trolls
noun – satirical, cultural-political slang
Definition:
A group or subculture of perpetually disgruntled, economically stagnant individuals—often older, embittered, and clinging to nostalgic political slogans (e.g., "Make America Great Again")—who congregate (virtually or metaphorically) under bridges of misinformation, grievance, and lost relevance. Typically resistant to progress, allergic to nuance, and suspicious of facts, they bemoan modern life while ironically using its tech to spread their discontent.
Origin:
Coined humorously by a grandchild observing certain TV personas, the term gained traction as a biting generational critique—“out of the mouths of babes!”—for those stuck in cultural or economic stasis while blaming everyone but themselves.
Example:
"When Grandpa starts ranting about the 'deep state' from his Facebook bunker again, my little cousin whispers, 'Pauper Troll alert!'"
Related terms:
Grievance goblins, MAGA mopers, Boomers under bridges, Keyboard cavemen, Foxhole dwellers

When one has been trolled for so long and so hard that they don't even need to be trolled anymore. They just keep posting text walls of gibberish, providing the troll who enacted auto-troll a priceless victory.
Thing 1: You see SilentRuin on the forums lately? Baron just posts a word or two and SilentRuin spends hours typing responses.
Thing 2: Yeah, Baron's really got him set on Auto-troll.
Thing 1: I've never seen someone on Auto-troll so hard!
Thing 2: Well, Baron's the man.
