professional troll farm.

Seems Chalice was targeted by some rival years ago. Someone is still bank rolling these attacks after all these years.  Wouldn't you like to know who that is?

Internet trolls are not a new phenomenon, in fact, they’ve been around since the late 1980s. However, in an era where cancel culture has become synonymous with cyber-bullying, we spot the rise of a new genre of trolls altogether—ones who are backed by a company’s payroll to infiltrate, manipulate and control online conversations surrounding their rivals. Welcome to the nasty little business of professional trolling.

What is professional trolling?

Professional trolling can be summed up as the coordinated efforts to spread online ‘disinformation’a subset of misinformation that is deliberately deceptive and misleading. The practice essentially offers governments, political parties and tech firms a fast and cheap way to weaken their rivals. This is done by exclusively employing people to carry out such trolling activities.
Typically roped in from developing countries, these employees are responsible for posting troll comments on various social media forums. They work in organised groups by setting up call-centre like operations, later following companies and influencers targeted by their employers. Masquerading as ‘one of us’, they then infiltrate the comments section and manipulate the conversation by inundating social media with conspiracy theories.

Subjecting other users to social media conditioning, these professional trolls distort the truth by copy-pasting curated thoughts infinite times until they pass off as truth. These fabricated lies are then picked up by other users who end up liking and even sharing these thoughts in their own social circles.

 

In many ways, professional trolling can be compared to what is happening in the US’ news landscape and the infiltration of pink slime in the country’s local news.
