| If I am going to spend thousands of dollars to rent the use of a venue, I would be concerned about the ethics of the owners. If I am going to donate a few bucks or buy a ticket, that is going to be of less concern. I am not going to look that hard (and even if I do, since I am spending so much less I will not care too much). I really hope you are real because I love the wierd lapses of logic you make. But I know you are just playing. I enjoy playing along. |

| After this many years of the internet, I would think all of us can spot a troll all the way across Times Square. | |

| True. But after the last few years, we've also seen that beliefs and behaviors that seemed relegated to a deranged minority are actually widespread and fueling the rise of right-wing ethno-nationalism and authoritarianism. Summertheater may just be a troll, but little they say strikes me as unreasonable in this day and age. It's funny, I take summertheater neither seriously nor literally in the content of what they post, but I do take their belief system literally (as well as their dedication to the long con). If they are a troll, they are displaying the language, taking points, and intellectual dishonesty of a larger movement that is currently setting the agenda of our global financial and political systems. I'm not saying you're wrong to read them as a troll, I'm just saying I'm not so certain that the truth is obvious. |

| were it JUST the political posts, I would be more inclined to see this your way. But we are talking about the champion of late seating, early show times, etc etc etc For me it is a stretch seeing those as anything but trolling. (Maybe not in the first instance, but clearly in the repetition.) I am sure that there is a DSM but clearly it is calculated to draw attention. (And succeeds, lest we leave unchallenged inanity on the internet.) A poseur? Maybe not. A troll? I think yes. | |

| I hear you on that, but I just see more derangement there, particularly if we actually believe that summertheater is scrolling through weeks and weeks of seating charts to check for unsold seats. That behavior is actually what makes me think they're legit, or else sincerely devoted to a very elaborate con on a message board that doesn't seem worth the trouble. But perhaps I'm still not cynical enough, lol. | |
