Trolls and mob mentality

This was an interesting article on modern "journalism" (in scare quotes just to include forms of non-professional media, like blogs, and non-traditional subject matter like how-to articles). Specifically it discusses how modern media purveyors (in an increasingly competitive bid to capture scarce readership) are taking a page out of the playbook that internet trolls have been using for over a decade now in order to more deeply engage (or enrage) their audience.


I think that direct, strategic assaults on readers’ self-conception have only recently become a deliberate technique. To me, Slate’s “You’re Doing It Wrong” cooking columns are the epitome of the trend (“you make pumpkin pie with condensed milk? you’re an asshole”), and represent a more dramatic divergence than one might first think from the counterintuitivism the brand is known (and gently teased) for. But examples are everywhere.

The opposite dynamic seems to work nearly as well: people love to be told that they’re great just the way they are. I think this is the lens through which one should view much of Gawker Media’s output, from their shaming of racist teens on Twitter to their outing of Violentacrez the Reddit troll. The moral judgments underlying these articles aren’t wrong, which makes them very hard to argue against. But the public performance of those values is clearly about flattering the sensibilities of the audience — “gawker” is exactly the right word for it. When the formula works, there’s an element of triumphalist mob mentality to the proceedings. To me, at least, this often seems more odious than the pathetic and easily-dismissed troll’s gambit.

In some cases, a single article can benefit from both strategies, simultaneously trolling and flattering. Usually this involves an attack on a cliched straw-man — the NYT’s recent piece on hipsterism fits the bill, as does this Philippic by Jill, er, Fillipovic. You can count on some portion of the audience to angrily recognize themselves as the ones being caricatured, and another portion of the audience to pat themselves on the back for participating in the shaming of that imagined subclass. Everybody wins, except for the part where they’ve just demonstrated themselves to be petty, provincial rubes.

I definitely do this, in real life and on the blog. I am sometimes annoyed by how effective it is, when used by people who are challenging my own interests. I have a friend who considers himself a professional troll, and I sort of respect the artistry of it when I see him create antagonism and xenophobia out of no where. But perhaps because I am actively and daily aware of the fragility of the social fabric and the potential fallout from disturbances, I still worry about mob mentality. We fight so hard against "rogue" nations having nuclear capabilities, but in a lot of ways this is a much bigger vulnerability.

  5. I thought you might like this, so I loved it up.

    Up From The Sofa


    On her porch, nature was everywhere: sumptuous and beautiful. It was for people who were not nasty, like a factory that churns out black smoke until it pollutes the town and then the city, and then the surrounding cities until it pollutes the country and is demolished before it pollutes the world.

    Some people were not made to sit in God's garden, with it's graces.They were made to do novenas. They were made to do Hail Mary's and Our Fathers, counting the rosary beads until they were old and their hands were gnarled. They would say, "Help Me, Jesus", as they walked through their day, doing various chores, old lady chores. They were not made to smell the new earth or touch their face to the noonday sun and in that moment, be perfect.

  6. :) Good Morning Sociopathworld!!!!

    Iam excited to see a new Up From The Sofa here today!!!!

    PS- I have seen that picture up top somewhere, I didnt see the laptop but I have seen the smiling face. In fact, a friend of mine was also there and we called it the "Smug Face". If that isint a smug smile, I dont know what is! LOL

    2. Interesting!!!!! Thank you for letting me know that, now it makes sense that it is a trolling face.

      Also, if you imagine a troll behind their computer messing with somebody who fell into their "troll trap",they would probably have this smug smile on them because of their self satisfaction of knowing that their attempts at being a troll actually worked :)

    Someone I respect, on here, told me I need to be more direct and less passive aggressive when I have something to say. Yesterday, I did that. I spoke my mind, in a direct way. You need to start sharing the truth about who you are and what you feel, rather than trying to start petty fights
    I think you are a very cool person, myself!

      I will tell you what I see in you. You are a cool person: smart, funny and real. You care to engage with people or you would not come on here. You want "social interaction" as that is what this is, albeit text.
      However, you shoot yourself in the foot when you start petty fights with people because that is not what you are really looking to do. You are looking to connect. That will be 25.00 ~

    7. "That will be 25.00"

    8. 25 is darn cheap. That is my low self esteem talking.

      Delete
    9. Don't you see how you project yourself onto everyone, and every interaction here? Not everyone comes here for social engagement. Many of us have real lives for that. We are not all trying to "connect" in some deeply emotional, communal way.

      You claim to enjoy the honesty here, but whenever someone touches upon a REAL issue you have, you A) seek to placate the person who confronts you, B) engage in splitting C) become so angry and vehement that one can literally visualize the spittle fly. Alternatively, you seek to minimize your turmoil by decompensating into a bunch of anons so as to distribute and "share" the emotional burden.

      You claim to hate platitudes, but the moment anyone gets close to pushing a real button by exposing an uncomfortable truth, it enrages you. You tolerate only watered-down pablum, served up with a rubber spoon. I know when I am getting close to your "real" issues, Monica, as your vitriol is directly proportionate to your discomfort.

      It may be that I am a blunt bull in a china shop, Monica, but your trinkets are old, dusty and fragile. Perhaps they need to be trashed, and replaced with more solid, functional models.

      You are only attracted to an idealized notion of what you think a sociopath should be. In truth, the real deal disgusts you every time you are confronted by it.

    10. You got some good points, Alterego. However, I do not think you understand the mechanism of coming out of disassociation, as I do not think you realize YOU are disassociated, but we should agree to disagree because I don't like sparring, for the sake of it.
      Anyway, Blessings to you !

      Delete
    11. I do not think I am disassociated so much as a bit emotionally shallow and relatively unempathetic, which in my case, is related to narcissism.

      I was not "sparring just for the sake of it", I am simply mirroring what you project by telling you the truth that I see.

      Blessings to you too.

      Delete
    12. Alterego
      I don't know if I can express what being disassociated means to me. I have done most of the "good things" in life, if not all. I was not there. I was not present. I don't have worldly aspirations such as be popular, make money, etc
      I want to feel my own body and feel my own feelings. Then, I will be happy sitting on my porch, reading a book, having coffee with a friend, playing music, whatever.
      Now, everything is the same, as if it is covered with heavy glue.

      You say I have no life. I am getting ready to play music professionally in my friend's band. You say I have a "stupid ministry". I have so many people ask me about Jesus, who never would ask a Christian.

      You don't know me, Alterego. In that sense, you are talking out of your backside.

      Delete
    13. Like I said, I do not pretend to "know" you, I can only mirror back to you what you *project* here.

      Also, I never said that you have a "stupid ministry", I merely questioned whether you use it as an excuse to "justify" your frequenting this blog so much. As my ex was so fond of saying, sheath the claws, woman! (Or in your case, perhaps I should say the claw-hammer. Ahem.)

      What makes you insecure about your ministry?

      Congratulations on your musical success. I'll never relate, as I can't sing for shit. :)

    14. I am not insecure about my ministry. People don't understand it, but that is, usually, traditional Christians. I reach whacky people like I am :D

By being in new age communities and just being a person who does not judge, but tries to love( with emphasis on the "tries", as I fail and have a lot of my own ego issues and emotional issues, as is obvious) but when Non Christians have questions, they will come to me and ask me about the Bible.

      Delete
    18. When people ask us about Jesus, on here (or mock us and harass us) they really want to know, many times. Everyone knows there is a power with Jesus, even if they won't admit it. There is an inner seeking for God, in every man. In many people, it is very covered over, but it is there. Hence, all the vitriol at Jesus.

    19. Monica, there is something I have been wanting to tell you about your numbness: You're not numb because of what was done TO YOU, you are number because of "what you have done to others."

      Lies. In fact, just on this page you've judged Rembrant extensively.

    23. Let me say this, my worldly aspirations are secondary to coming out of disassociation. If I don't, it doesn't matter what I have, where I go, or with whom because it all feels the same.

    24. Look, Monica told me a few months ago that any anon posting as Monica not from her google account is not her. I don't respond to anons pretending to be Monica. If that's you, Monica, post from your google and say so and I'll address your comments.

    26. All right. I have begun to understand you better these last several months, I'll say that.

      You are very judgmental. You're always judging others AND yourself, Monica.

      Also, you do put a lot of stock in your image. You run a psychic astrologer business and you often mention class or lack thereof, so how can you say you are not interested in money and appearances?

    27. Also, you do put a lot of stock in your image.

    1. Alterego, Ukan can be "harsh" but at least he speaks the truth and does not vacillate like you do. We have heard your "sister in Christ" routine for so long it is tiring. Christ spoke the truth - he didn't sugar coat it. Monica is the farthest thing from a Christian I have ever seen. Get real!

    2. Haaaaa yes he did, but always in love. I've got to work on that. Being civil is not the equivalent of "sugar-coating" the truth.

      Ukan is on a different page altogether. Comparing us is like comparing apples to oranges.

    3. I have not always seen your civility so don't go there. Instead I have seen anger and ego.

    4. As for whether Monica is genuinely Christian, that is not for me to judge: how can I pluck the speck out of her eye when I have a log in my own, clouding my vision? Who am I to say whether Monica is or isn't Christian? Faith is very personal.

      Delete
    5. We know her by her works, lies, cons and lacks empathy.

      Delete
    6. I have certainly let my ego parade about here, but I cant say that I have ever been truly angered.

      I think that is part of the problem. Perhaps it is difficult for individuals with low empathy to actually perceive the human connection behind the lines of text. I cant fathom how anyone might get truly hurt, angry or emotionally distraught by anything anyone says here, so I tend to project that reality onto others. Not unlike Monica, albeit in an inverted fashion.

      Delete
    7. I have lots of good works, but I lack empathy too. I fuck up all the time, and I have a manipulative, callous nature to boot, which renders me even more prone to hypocrisy. But I believe that salvation is by faith- and thank God for that- because none of us are truly "good". But even that depends on your definition of the term, much like what it means to be "Christian" for every person who appropriates the label. I try to derive my definitions from my personal understanding of what the Bible teaches, but I know I that I fall far from the mark.

      Delete
    8. I could quote you bible scripture but I won't. You see I believe God leaves the presence of those that practice bad deeds - and that is why there is no growth.

      Delete
    9. If God were to leave those of us who practice iniquity, we'd ALL be up the creek- bar none. Jesus said: "Let he who has no sin cast the first stone", and they all dropped their rocks to the ground.

      Thankfully, God never abandons us. The Bible states very clearly that he is faithful even when we are not. (2 Tim. 2:13)

      To quote Scripture:

      So I find this law at work: Although I want to do good, evil is right there with me. For in my inner being I delight in God’s law; but I see another law at work in me, waging war against the law of my mind and making me a prisoner of the law of sin at work within me. What a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body that is subject to death? Thanks be to God, who delivers me through Jesus Christ our Lord! (Rom. 7:21-25)

      "For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord." (Rom 8:38-39)

      Does this give us a license to sin? No. But the Bible makes it clear that our growth is a lifelong and ongoing process, and that God never abandons us, no matter how much we fuck up.

  14. I didn't have a point to lose. I have stopped making points to monica a long long time ago because her entire existence is pointless. her life is just a void of nothing and a testament to the failure of her family line. lets all be honest here falter. if she was being tortured to death in front of us can you honestly say that you would step up to speak for her worthless life? I doubt it, because deep down you know she doesn't deserve to be here in the land of the living. the fact she is still living with how retarded she is, is a freak accident.

      What I have to laugh about is how you keep going on that you are some quasi psychopath that goes around being a do gooder and spreading christ, while standing up for people who are obviously worthless. There's no way you scored 27 on any PCLR while you are mother fucking theresa. You are just trying to infiltrate the wicked here to spread your useless message of jesus in a bid to make yourself seem holier than thou. It won't work.

      I don't struggle with it. I revel in it. I don't like people like yourself coming on like this is something people should struggle to eliminate. We are not ashamed of who we are. Why fight a good thing.

      That's the difference between psychopathy and some melodramatic narcissist. While you paint the picture of inner strength from some bollocks that you were ashamed of in the past, I'm accepting myself to point of self obsession. masterbating on the world of losers that contrast to my own greatness. Everyday I feel exhilarated and excited to the point of megalomania. god has nothing on me right now I spit on him and his pathetic followers.

      How can you say that monica you are the most delusional person that ever stepped foot on this site by a landslide. You spent two years so far on here chasing your tail and calling it progress. You don't even have to tell jokes to get people to laugh at you, because your entire existence is a punchline on the rest of mankind.

      Are you really so broken that you think calling out a woman on having a maternal streak is an insult? It's a compliment, fucking lunatic.

    31. It wasn't meant as an insult. Is that a sensitive spot there, mother hen. having maternal instincts must be new to you. i have to wonder, how does it feel to finally care?

      I have more tail and ass than anyone on here, because I am an ass head. I dare anyone to say they are a bigger ass head than me. I will kick your ass head, if you do.

      Delete
    33. No, it is the most frequent thing you say about me lately. I thought it very weird that you seemed to throw 'mother hen' at me as if was an insult. If you didn't mean it as such, I stand corrected. I do care about some people to the extent that I'm able. Having maternal instincts isn't new to me at all. I'm the oldest child in the family. It's pretty natural.

    34. aren't my insults all just my curiousity getting the best of me, mother hen? i wanted to see where it came from. where it was hiding and why it was hiding there. why it suddenly came bursting out like geyser that built pressure over the decades.

      Did you think that my exposing your mousy cowardice was intended as a compliment, braveheart?~

      I never get angry here. Stop taking this place so seriously.

      Ukan said: I don't struggle with it. I revel in it. I don't like people like yourself coming on like this is something people should struggle to eliminate. We are not ashamed of who we are. Why fight a good thing.

      I am not ashamed of anything in my past. If I were, I would not have been so transparent about myself here, of all places. Your wife was right about my being shameless.

      Why would you be offended by someone hoping to channel their psychopathic traits into more constructive outlets? It is not as though you're "taking one for the team", or actually give a shit about any of the "pathetic idiots" (to quote you) who frequent this blog.

      I am left to wonder why you feel threatened by the presence of strong, self-confident women who share similar traits, but choose not to waste them on abject cruelty. Your clinging so hard and fast to the notion that anyone who is not mean like you is weak and pathetic only serves to underscore your insecurity. Why do you feel the need to defend your sadism, and how you think it relates to psychopathy, if you are such a bloody "legend"?

      I watched my father burn everything to the ground more than once, only to see him come around in his seventies and realize that family is everything.

      I am not going to repeat his errors. Instead, I am going to sharpen what's good and cut off what's weak. I am going to build a freaking empire out of the things that matter to me. I started out piss poor and I have I have only my heritage to bequeath. I have no intention of ripping it to shreds on a bored whim.

      I dont need to step on others to bolster my self esteem, ukan. That's just weak and pathetic.

      But I do enjoy arguing with you! :)

      The amount of guilt and shame you carry with your bible makes me sick. Your giving to children is just some feel good nonsense you are too weak to produce in yourself. It's an image, falter, and you are fucking with nature by helping those children survive.

      Delete
    39. Bullshit. You are avoiding my questions in an attempt to control the direction of this conversation.

      Why the hell would you care what I say here unless you felt threatened? Why does it bug you to think that someone who shares traits with you might also be kind? Why are you so invested in being the One True Model and poster child for a personality disorder?

      You need to stuff people into boxes in your mind to ensure that you always feel superior to them. That way, when you are overshadowed in terms of success, you can point to what you consider a weakness in them and feel better about yourself.

      You say that I'm weak because I help children and it makes me feel good? What does that make a person who needs to sustain the reputation of douchebag of the year in order to prop up *his* image, like you? Because an image is all it is. I see through you.

      Because you keep telling me I share traits with you stupid cunt. I don't share anything in common with you at all. you even said it yourself just today. You said that we are apples and fucking oranges. Now we are two peas in a pod. I don't have anything in common with you at all, women. You are imagining things.

      You are sitting here telling me that you don't feel empathy and you are a almost psychopath while you defend all these wastes from getting molested on here and you spend your time tending to abandoned fucking children. Come on lady. this is getting retarded. I got to ask you why you are obsessed with constantly claiming duplicity when there is no other side of you. It's like you want to be more complicated than you actually are to be interesting. pathetic falter. pathetic.

      Delete
    42. We *are* apples and oranges, but all fruits share certain elements in common. I cant help my genetic heritage any more than you can help yours, Pillsbury Dough Boy. :)

      Like you, I am aggressive, power-oriented, and driven to succeed. I am extroverted, impulsive, manipulative, relatively fearless and prone to irresponsibility. Unlike you, I am not proud of myself for acting like a vicious douchebag. Unlike you, I have chosen to harness my strengths in ways that will benefit others as well as myself. What's it to you, you selfish loser?

      I've claimed to have LOW affective empathy, which isn't the same as saying it's non-existent. Twisting my words will not strengthen your case, because I have actually been very real and honest here.

      This is not about my comparing myself to you, kannit. You go on this tired little rant every time someone who is not exactly like you claims to have psychopathic traits. I am hardly the first, nor will I be the last.

      Again, why the fuck would you care what anyone calls themselves unless your identity were so wrapped up in the necessity of securing your special status so as to feel superior and uniquely "interesting"?

      Pathetic, ukant, pathetic.

      Oh, but he does try. Hard. Are you so retarded that it isn't patently obvious to you? Are you so lacking in perspicacity that you can only see one facet of a human being, to the detriment of all others?

      I think I know who you are. Since when have you been too cowardly to confront me as "yourself"? Afraid of losing face, because you couldnt follow through with leaving, yet again?

    5. You're right. You had something you used against me, something I couldn't beat and you threatened me with it. There was nothing I could do against it. I also remember you being sweet at the beginning, and then being cruel. I could hear your voice, yelling at me, saying cruelties. Your sounded extremely angry, with a touch of mockery. That mockery part was what got under my skin the most. I don't remember being scared, but I had a feeling I didn't enjoy at all.

      Delete
    6. This is where your version doesn't match mine:

      I'd threaten and mock, your're right. I'd be cruel. But I wouldn't sound angry, at all. My voice would be soft and sweet; full of honey, as it delivered its blows to your self-esteem. My cruelties would be pleasures you couldn't help responding to. But the mockery would be there, and it would really get under your skin .....

      Delete
    7. It really would. I don't know which one would get to me the most, the angry voice or the sweet voice. The sweet voice makes you look as sweet as sweet can be while destroying me entirely.

    Falter doesn't share similiar traits with me she is the exact fucking opposite. She's a do gooder that helps children. A christian. She dreams of breaking the law but doesn't do it. If you think that's me you need to get your head examined.

Did you buy it at Wal Mart? Did you try to get a CHEAP one? Did you go to the bargain bin where hot pink tube tops that would fit a small sausage stay? Did you rummage around the bright,lime green sneakers? Did a funky old lady with a tattoo on her chest offer to help you, but you didn't want to be bothered? You thought you didn't need her help. You were fucking educated, for God's sake. You don't need old ho's telling you how to shop the bargain bin. Then, you get into your car and drive to the light and it is yellow, eternally yellow.
