1306731 2012-10-16 04:56:00 This is interesting - the workings of the mind belonging to a self-confessed 'troll'... A troll makes her case (www.stuff.co.nz).

I think Karma is going to bite her back now her name and face has been published.

What a lot of people can't differentiate between is somebody who is being a bully online, and somebody else who is simply being facetious while playing devils advocate.

I do it a lot both online and in real life. She says it best in the actual stuff article:

"I try my best to always be facetious, but not malicious," Cochran says.

"Most of what I do, I do with great jest and playfulness. I'm not trying to hurt anyone's feelings, I just want to make people think and laugh along the way.

"I also look at [trolling] as a form of culture jamming, in the sense that it can disrupt the status quo to hopefully stop and make people think for a moment. I'm an activist as well and absolutely have no problem trolling people that are activists too, even if we're on the same side.

"I troll Anonymous, I troll Occupy, I troll Wikileaks. I do it because I'd like them to see the hypocrisies of their and our ways and as a reminder that the emperor wears no clothing.

And more...
