You make it sound like 'troll-folk' are identifiable, and do nothing but 'troll' (whatever that is). In fact, this word is almost always applied to someone with whom we have a disagreement. It does not apply to them in general, usually just the thing we disagree with. This sort of dehumanizing generalisation is not helpful. Mark

Ray, troll-folk are not slow to make this argument for themselves. I hardly think this list needs its complacency undermined, or whatever you think you're doing with this special pleading. It is wretched stuff.
