You
know the people I’m talking about – the ones who constantly blog with
Leftist postings, usually parroted, designed to rile up conservatives -
especially the ones who don’t allow comments. The people who think drug addiction should garner sympathy, unless the person who experienced it is a hugely successful conservative talk radio entertainer.
I’m not talking about the people who make thoughtful or sincere responses to our own blog postings or to columns.
I’m
talking about the trolls who are seeking attention for attention’s
sake, apparently to waste your time because they have so much time to
waste themselves.
There are better places for us to peruse blogs
of opinions, thoughts, and experiences different from our own. Unlike
Lefists, we don’t panic when someone disagrees with us, so we go to
those places to see what the Left has to say.
Apparently, some Leftists like Townhall.com better, and so they troll away here.
Don’t
poke them. Don’t even click over to their blog entries. They confuse
the traffic for agreement with their paranoid assertions. It’s best to
leave them alone as they post away from their mother’s home. They need
to vent, because a lack of understanding about how the world works can
be frustrating, especially for someone who can't take disagreement.
Pray for them. Don’t poke them.
