 Trolling (as a verb) is a fairly recent term that has evolved alongside the [Internet](internet.md) and whose meaning ranges from an activity of purposefully causing [drama](drama.md) (mostly on the Internet) for entertainment (the original, narrower meaning) to just shamelessly abusing rules of any system for self interest on the detriment of others (wider meaning, e.g. *[patent](patent.md) trolling*, pre-election *media trolling* etc.). Core value of the narrow-sense trolling is simply [fun](fun.md) on the detriment of others -- usually making someone angry -- but not every fun making can be called trolling -- bullying weaker, for example, isn't trolling, despite it bringing some fun; trolling has to have a bit of cleverness in it, it typically finds a way of legally do something nasty, i.e. [hacking](hacking.md) the rules of the game. Trolls are those who before the Internet would be called something like jokers or pranksters, however [real life](irl.md) pranks have limited potential -- on the Internet on the other hand trolling can flourish (likely owing to the aspect of [anonymity](anonymity.md), lack of nonverbal communication, lack of consequences and responsibility and so on), so this [art](art.md) has evolved into something more, it is by now an inseparable part of Internet [culture](culture.md) (and should probably become protected by Unesco). Some forms of trolling provide so much fun they're even illegal. Trolling is not about being [evil](evil.md), it is about having fun, it is cherished by cool people who don't take things too seriously and can make fun of themselves and is therefore embraced by forums like [4chan](4chan.md); on the other hand it is demonized by those without sense of humor, those who fear the power of humor (e.g. dictators and fascists) and those who mostly get butthurt by it ([reddit](reddit.md), [Wikipedia](wikipedia.md) and other "safe space" networks). [Evil](evil.md) is always afraid of fun.
 
+In [modern](21st_century.md) times **trolling is started to be demonized and even criminalized**, similarly to demonizing "conspiracy theories", politically incorrect jokes and other forms of free thinking and art, that's why it's important to support trolling more. Back in the day trolling may have been seen as annoying at worst, nowadays people will try to push laws for punishing "trolls" and promote the idea that it's a dangerous, possibly life endangering mental illness, labeling someone a troll is quite close to labeling him a psychopath or terrorist. Don't fall for this, let trolling prosper, it's simply fun, people's culture, folklore, humanity and art.

 NOTE: That who performs trolling is called a *troll*, a word taken from Nordic mythology where it stands for a fantastic, weird kind of creature that lives in forests, caves or under bridges. Trolls are often a [race](race.md) in many fantasy universes (e.g. Warcraft, LOTR, Harry Potter, ...) -- there their appearance isn't very unified, some make them big, stupid giants, others paint them as tall but human sized creatures with tusks and so on. Further on we'll just be discussing trolls as related to *trolling*.
 
 Trolling is highly associated with the troll face [meme](meme.md) -- the face has become a universal trolling symbol.
