Musings on trolling and logic.


This is more for my own amusement than anything else, but it does show how susceptible people are to trolls, and how people don’t do basic research before commenting.

I grabbed a screen shot of comments on the Sister Wendy discussion (about the Serranno piece 'piss christ')
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L9pAKdkJh-Y
, because i noticed most of the comments, far from being about the video were directed at this character  ’amayagab’. Who comported him/herself by saying Sister Wendy was a sinner, the art was blasphemous and that the people watching are immoral. A quick check on the channels homepage , and a look at the background confirms that this is a troll account. Probably a part time troll, since they have other content up. The more sophisticated troll,  would have a channel identical to the real nutters.

I know that the people who comment on youtube a lot, are people who do it for all kinds of reasons, they often have no perspective. But i think it replicated how people operate logically in the real world.
