- **Accessibility, "trollslation"**: I like to leave cool [funny words](nigger.md) and phrases ("learn to see") in Braille script so that it looks like I'm trying to help (Braille message found by a statue is assumed to be there to describe the statue), people have no idea what it actually says and they think I'm helping the disabled when I'm actually trolling them. Can also be done with uncommonly spoken [languages](human_language.md), for example one can print a poster that says something positive in several common languages (like "Have a nice day kind stranger <333"), but the [Chinese](chinese.md) translation could say something slightly different ("The chinese must be this tall to shop here.") :D

{ Back in the times of [fax](fax.md) there was a cool troll known as "black fax". As the name suggests, the goal was to fax a completely black page to waste the receiver's ink :D ~drummyfish }

{ I got asked a very good question: is trolling in fact [fascism](fascism.md) and how can I, a LRS supporter, like it then? This topic can get pretty complicated, trolling is probably like games themselves, it is a simulation of behavior that could otherwise be unethical, we always have to think about what's happening -- sometimes what's called "trolling" is just bullying without any creativity, which is not trolling in the right sense; other times trolling is seeking self benefit (fun on detriment of others) which is normally unethical but may be fine as a part of game, and other times trolling may aim to bring fun for everyone, in which case it may even be selfless. Seeking fun (a kind of self benefit) on the detriment of others is, at least by our definition, a form of fascism. I enjoy the acts of trolling, and though it may be partly an imperfection of me as a human being, I try to keep it compatible with LRS in the following ways. Firstly I never support actually very harmful trolling (such as "cutting for Bieber") to be DONE, though I do enjoy reviewing the cases that already happened and I may find them both funny and sad at the same time -- this is similar to how one can be a pacifist and completely reject violence while still finding some value in watching gore videos. Secondly trolling may be done to entities that aren't living beings, for example companies or states. Thirdly I may support acts of trolling that I don't think are significantly harmful, for example lighthearted pranks (the kind of joke you play on someone and it eventually entertains both of you, but it mustn't be taken too far, harm must be negligible), or Internet trolling. It's similar to sports or video games -- it is completely acceptable (and desirable) to create environments -- which must always be entered VOLUNTARILY -- that simulate amoral behavior and relieve some of our amoral animal needs, for example those for competition or fight, despite such behavior not being acceptable in other contexts. I.e. it is for example acceptable to kill each other in video games. Internet, or at least a great part of it, is such an environment -- it is a kind of playground anyone can enter voluntarily, that's known to have the kind of trolling game going on. On the Internet we only interact by speech and speech alone can never hurt anyone -- if one cannot bear reading something on the Internet, he can avoid using it (at least that's how it should be). ~drummyfish }
