I looked up aliquant and still don't know what this sentence means. I like it though, I might try to use it sometime.

From the article:

 

The researchers define online trolls as those who try to influence public opinion by boosting “misleading” and “inauthentic comments.” 

 

My experience is that fools believe what they want to believe and are heavily influenced by their pre-existing prejudices.

 

I'm aware of a near-prefect example of this right now on another Thailand-related forum, but I'll let discretion prevail.
