Paid Trolls

My "sh%$ty little blog" doesn't rate them, but Barry Ritholtz problems, particularly in his posts detailing Megan McCardle being a stooge of the Koch brothers, is something I've seen before.

I do believe that there are people being paid to troll his comment section.

I believe this because I am an alumni of Netslaves, where the sysop Patrick "Splat" Neeman was getting web design business thrown his way by Lauren "Uncle Meat" Bandler, and so was allowed to troll with impunity.

It destroyed the board and the community.

It's their goal.


H/t for the xkcd  for the cartoon, which does not obscure the naughty word.
