Trollwashing

The practice of using cyber threats, abusive language, and the ill-defined term "harassment" coming from a small number of internet trolls to distract from broader legitimate criticism of one's own poor behavior and to make oneself the victim.

It often includes the implication that non-abusive critics are somehow in-league with those sending death threats, using racial or sexual epithets, etc. as a way of smearing anyone who criticizes you. It also often involves mischaracterizing jokes and mean words as violent (see Anthony Rendon below). While trollwashing is a red herring used by a wide variety of political ideologies, it is most often associated with poorly conceived SJW talking points.

Prominent examples include:

Sky News anchor Cathy Newman after her disastrous interview with Jordan Peterson.
California Assemblyman Anthony Rendon after screwing over his progressive supporters.
Kathy Griffin after pretending to decapitate the President.
Hillary Clinton throughout the 2016 election.
Anti-GamerGaters like Anti Sarkeesian, Zoe Quinn, and Brianna Wu literally all the time.
Anita Sarkeesian: *makes incoherent, illogical horseshit video*
Entire internet: "This video was incoherent and illogical. Here are many legitimate reasons why."
Like, 2 guys: "She's a dumb bitch."
Anita: I AM THE VICTIM OF CYBER VIOLENCE ANYONE WHO CRITICIZES ME IS A RAPIST REEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Me: I'm so sick of this god damn trollwashing.

Trollgagement

Trollgagement refers to the act of inciting or encouraging negative or disruptive behavior in an online community or platform through the use of trolling tactics. It is a combination of the words "troll" and "engagement," indicating a deliberate and intentional effort to create conflict and generate attention. Trollgagement is often used to spread disinformation, cause harm, or simply to stir up trouble.
The internet troll's goal was to provoke an emotional reaction from the members of the online community through their trollgagement tactics.

Trollage

Troll + Collage = Trollage, a collage to catch trolls.
A mash-up of images, references, and quotes attributed to the wrong people. These are usually taken from movies and shows of the science fiction or fantasy genres, or have a geeky pop culture theme.

The monumental amount of conflicting pictures and erroneous quotes from the wrong characters are sure to elicit corrections from the trolls who don't get the obvious joke.
