A not-so-new but aggressive defense mechanism has been unleashed in the blogosphere. Say something bad about Islam, scientology, Al-Goreble-Warming, and other things and you will get comments like this: A boilerplate Scientology response which came in here a couple days ago.
And some pro Al Gore global warming proponent posted here.
Both of these are long, well written and comprehensive. How come? These are people who attended a seminar on how to do this. Seminar blog commenters have these things in a file. They troll the blogosphere using Googles Blogsearch and post these comments in an attempt to deal with whatever the issue was.
That is their right, I guess, but they are long winded and not on topic many times. And, it’s not really debate.
I am going to find a half dozen things I give a darn about. I’m going to prepare a general comment defending whatever that is. Then I am going to troll the blog search engines and find people who are critical of or incorrect (according to me) in their opinion.
So should you.
Turnabout is fair play.
