The troll effect

When somebody on the internet starts trolling in a comment thread, it often elicits more people to come and troll (for the lulz). The larger the "troll train", the more trolls it will attract. This is known as the troll effect.

User 1: Wow! It's so nice to see another rover on mars!
User 2 (in reply to User 1): Bet they didn't tell you that the footage was all recorded in a studio!!
User 3 (in reply to User 2): Shhhh!! Brainwashed people are sensitive to these truths. Careful with what you say ;)
User 4: This is obviously all fake. I call BS.
User 5: You guys really believe that this is real? lmao
User 6: Can you trolls just shut the fuck up? You're only amplifying the troll effect.

troll

-Somebody that an internet "community" disagrees with, e.g. about a game, the debate of genre vs art, the community's own grand selves vs someone with a particular criticism.

-Right-wing propagandists and manipulators.

-Somebody who deliberately provokes and uses confusion tactics and logical fallacies aplenty on the internet. Often and increasingly with a confused fake-moral ideology.

-It's strange how everything is perfect and better than life itself here except for those troll-topics.

-I'm not a troll, I was proving something to you about yourself, then you called me names. You are a troll. I am just very clever at argument and considerate about people who want to be exploited.

-That guy there is legit and has to be protected from a troll. I want to suck his dick for being so not-a-troll.
