But trolling has become the main tool of the alt-right, an Internet-grown reactionary movement that works for men’s rights and against immigration and may have used the computer from Weird Science to fabricate Donald Trump. Not only does Trump share their attitudes, but he’s got mad trolling skills: he doxxed Republican primary opponent Senator Lindsey Graham by giving out his cell-phone number on TV and indirectly got his Twitter followers to attack GOP political strategist Cheri Jacobus so severely that her lawyers sent him a cease-and-desist order.

I noticed that Joel Stein seems to think that foul language, threats, and harassment are only practiced by alt-righters. He must have missed all of those death threats towards policemen and towards whites generally from #BlackLivesMatter social media following the deaths of Trayvon Martin and the various street thugs who've been shot by police officers.

I see far more truly abusive posts from the left than the right. The problem is, the left sees many factual statements as abusive. Such as pointing out that their so-called common-sense gun control laws would accomplish nothing to stop the mass shootings that spawn calls for such.
