@iMartyn@BoingBoing sexist bs not trolling.. Trolling is dropping in on a thread and adding a polar opposite opinion to elicit a response. -
@Darthgreg78@iMartyn@BoingBoing Sexist bs is definitely trolling. Ask any female blogger.@EverydaySexism has many examples. -
@Rapunzal@iMartyn@BoingBoing@EverydaySexism idk if I can lump abusive and borderline criminal comments in with things like "you suck" -
@Darthgreg78@Rapunzal@BoingBoing@EverydaySexism no, as I recently saw an example, trolling is humourous, rape threats are not.#simple -
@iMartyn@Darthgreg78@BoingBoing@EverydaySexism Rape threats are never ok. -
@Rapunzal@Darthgreg78@BoingBoing@EverydaySexism correct. Rape threats are never OK and never trolling.

@BoingBoing Rape and death threats aren't trolling. @wilw -
@Clarrisani@BoingBoing @wilw They are the worst kind of trolling because they not only seek to invalidate the op, they aim to cause fear. -
@Rapunzal@BoingBoing No, they are rape and death threats. That isn't trolling. Calling it trolling minimises the seriousness of it. @wilw -
@Clarrisani@kdwald@BoingBoing But you're right, not all trolls are as loathsome. The last thing I want is to minimize rape & death threats -
@Clarrisani@kdwald@BoingBoing @wilw They deserve a New category. What should we call trolls who's behavior escalates to violent threats? -
@Rapunzal They should be the same category as all other rape and death threats, be they verbal or via mail.@kdwald@BoingBoing @wilw -
@Clarrisani@kdwald@BoingBoing @wilw I agree. Those running twitter & other social media sites need to take reported threats seriously.
