When i first heard the word trolls the first thing that comes to my mind is the cartoon, seriously. But this issue just so threatening to each student especially those trolls with regard to DDS cause some of the students are having their duplicate account which was manage by other people. It was alarming because if that troll account posted something against the government the troll account might be accused and the name of the person might be in danger. That's how it works

That's the real danger. TROLLS ARE THE ENEMY.

Are there any constructive means of stopping these destructive people?

I am feeling so hopeless. :cry:

Have you considered turning off comments or reporting the trolls?

Fortunately for me I'm not popular enough for trolls to care. I delete unwanted comments. If it's a comment that really disturbs me I may take the extra step and report it.

This thing with trolls is that you have to engage them. That's how they keep foolishness going on. I don't engage them. But I do wish there was a Delete Button.

The rate in which people in authority treat public is socially awkward. They use their power to cover their evil

Thankfully, Facebook eradicated some DDS pages that only propagate fake news and hate speech towards activists and human right groups. Now, our coward president asked the Facebook to stop deleting their paid fake news proliferating pages and also suggested to take down the anti-government pages like Rappler, which is one of the credible source of news in this country.

Just as the old adage says, don't feed the trolls. Just ignore or delete their message or report them so the site will delete their post.

The fact is that being very active on social media, especially YouTube can be risky. We have even heard of news about some folks making politically sensitive videos and getting threatening phone calls.
Some journalists even faced attacks on their lives.

Yet, what if the comments come in Thousands. One cannot go on reporting or complaining about Thousands of them.

They have a quota, they got paid whenever someone replies to them. Ignore and report is the best way to destroy them.

Trolls are everywhere, even trolls are trolled in India. I do troll the trolls by mocking their stupid and unrelated posts. However later I understood that if they are not ignored, they will make their worth(less).

If there are thousands, you can just ignore those ignorant nonsensical comments. Trolls just want to trigger you. Don't let them give what they want

Their populations decreased in Facebook but they still thrive on Youtube. Facebook combats them with fact checkers now.

I don't really trust facebook fact checks. As they are a left leaning company. They of course will even
say lies that benefit their agenda is true. And anything that hurts their agenda as false.
But they got scared when the NY Post a real news source posted a lot of dirt on Biden.
They even blocked it from being shared... i don't see that curbing trolls..
i see it trying to control the flow of info which is dangerous..
