    It can be SO tempting to reply to someone who’s being a jerk, but it’s very rarely worth it. I restrain myself because nobody “wins” an argument online. It’s just two bickering losers.

      I’ve literally changed my position on important matters due to patient and considerate discussions that occured entirely on the Internet (Facebook of all places, if you can believe it). But yeah, with a jerk acting as a troll, that’s not going to happen, no matter how much you might wish for it.
