Even in my USENET heydays, I can't say I was ever a legitimate "troll". But I've long been rooted in wanting to tease people a bit, I think mostly for having been the first born to a couple siblings.
As for politics, I see merits in various sides.. but lean toward being less amenable to "helping" others in ways I've deemed don't really help when seemingly opening the door to alternative forms of subservience. I believe people need to "stand on their own two" as much as possible - which I consider in accord with Darwinist thinking.
I'll admit I've been a lucky motherfuck in a lot of ways. But I definitely took the bullhorns when needed, so I expect similar of others. But I definitely acknowledge some come from places in which doing that is essentially "not humanly possible".
As always, the devil is in the details....
