Wow, you're a troll doll collector now.

Not at all. I take the view that "a troll" is merely someone expressing a minority opinion two years before it becomes common currency among the same mob who called the prescient fellow a "troll" for disillusioning their smug certainties.

Or alternately, a troll is someone with a histrionic personality disorder, lacking in original thought and recycling ultra-conservative or opposition talking points to gain attention, usually with a flourish here and there just to point out his superior intellect. I think the APA is working on diagnosis of "troll disorder" or "infantile trollism" for DSM-6.

From the Urban Dictionary:

"Top definition
Internet Troll
A person whose sole purpose in life is to seek out people to argue with on the internet over extremely trivial issues. Such arguments can happen on blogs, Facebook, Myspace and a host of others.
The best thing you can do to fight an internet troll is to not answer..or report them."

That describes Jute very well.

Cheers

In fact this does not describe Jute whatsoever. It is a perfect description of Slocumb who is telling us about this country while living in another. Beatie who lives in one of the most leftist enclaves in the universe other than California and makes comments only in opposition to Jute and I such as his recent ridiculous claim that you become a member of the AAAS only to get a T-shirt and Krygowski who opposes Jute and I on nothing other than general principles no matter how wrong he is. In person the comments from any of these would gain them a broken nose and that is what they are here for - to say things they wouldn't dare say face-to-face.

You might want to observe your own postings as well. I don't know about the rest of the US but the California state debt is requiring taxes so high that companies that aren't leaving are being bankrupted. Bicycle sales are at an all-time low despite use of bicycles for transportation is at an all time high in California as the roads grow progressively more and more crowded while at the same time crumbling. The State Debt is more than half of the Gross State Product and is growing larger by the minute - the state is bankrupt in reality because of Democrat policies that are taken not to help one F-ing individual in this state other than their own elections. All of the metrics of California are either at the bottom or very near it. And this is what Trump is being assaulted with and the people here actually agree with it when they are supposed to be those intelligent enough to understand what these policies do. We have our own little Club of Rome followers.
