Trolls of Singapore Pte Ltd

Hey all, the following image is a screen grab from what I saw on my Facebook newsfeeds earlier today.

This post got me thinking, if all the said trolls were to unite under a single banner, what would happen? Well, I doubt life would be any different..... but nevertheless it is an interesting point made. How nuch of an impact would they make on society? Then again, do people who "troll" and "flame" even have any positive impact at all?

Occasionally I do come across a few flamers. Most of the time I struggle to comprehend why they do what they do. They write relatively lengthy articles on social media lambasting others, whatever for?

It is a given, and a basic fact that all of us as individuals have different opinions and views. We vary in preferences and behaviour. Occasionally we come across individuals we do not agree with. I respect that these "trolls" and "flamers" believe strongly enough in their cause to lambast those who are not in line, but sometimes I wonder whether the syrong language thwy use would be the most effective in knocking whatever sense into others?

A molotove cocktail isn't going to convince riot police to stop stopping a riot.

Contrary, it makes the situation worse. Both sides would more likely not see eye to eye, and that brings about they question once more. Why would you do that then? Since it would not solve any issues, but instead cause more chaos and drama, and the only people who would agree with your actions are already one way or another on your side, what is the value of your words?

Trolls of Singapore Pte Ltd would most likely implode due to such questions. When members turn on each other in a bid to defend all their personal ideals, I see no future for such an organisation based upon such dubious and questionable inifying factor as simply being "trolls".

Unless of course this organisation is one of hideous, monstrous abominations that live in swamps. Then maybe they would survive. As a political party, perhaps.
