I just can’t wrap my head around reacting to a clicked “like” or “laugh”, etc…. Reacting to that the same as if there’s a physical posted answer.

It just doesn’t pass the smell test of “this is trolling” to me. 

Please give some additional consideration to this.

First post "back" is a troll.  

Who would have ever guessed (basically everyone but 1776)

It’s uncool to drag people into a sidebar they’re not involved in.

Yep.  Fair enough.

My sincerest apologies to 1776, but not to anyone else.

I agree. He chose to no longer engage in the conversation, but instead just laugh reacting to many posts. Its most definitely trolling.

Abstract

This thesis examines the impact of emojis on user engagement within online discussions, particularly focusing on the trolling behavior on social media platforms such as Reddit. The central problem addressed is understanding how different types of emojis—in emotional, informational, and popularity-based categories—affect user interactions and engagement in online communications. Through a robust methodological approach, combining quantitative data analysis and Random Forest regression modeling, this research meticulously analyzes emoji usage patterns and their correlations with engagement metrics like upvotes and comments.

The results highlight that emotional and popular emojis significantly enhance engagement by facilitating emotional expression and connection among users. In contrast, excessive or inappropriate use of emojis, especially those less popular or predominantly informational, tends to reduce engagement. These findings suggest that while emojis can serve as powerful tools for enhancing communication and mitigating conflicts, their misuse can lead to decreased user interaction and potential misunderstandings.

Based on these insights, the study concludes that understanding the context-specific impacts of emojis is crucial for both content creators and platform moderators to foster healthier online environments. Recommendations for future research include exploring the effects of cultural differences on emoji interpretation and expanding the predictive modeling to other platforms to generalize the findings. This work contributes to the broader discourse on digital communication strategies, offering guidelines for more effective and empathetic engagement online.

Quick question, since the President has issued orders banning transsexual women from participating in sports why doesn't the ban go both ways. There are women who have transited as well. Is it ok for them to hang out in our restrooms or locker rooms? 
What about sports, that's no addressed, can they play on the men's golf team if they so desire?

At some level, I think it's a deep-rooted fear that they'll glimpse a female athlete, their lizard brain will go "she's hot!", then find out the athlete was transsexual, so they'll then think that makes them a homosexual

How is it going to be enforced? Does someone from the school or government inspect what inside your pants? 

that's just what they will do -"The only way to protect girls in sports is for us to inspect their vaginas."

NCAA prez said that there are about 10 transgender athletes, which equals less than two one-hundredths of 1%.

but if you stick to traditional gender roles, no one will question your identity, and you will stake by unmolested.

who do you think MAGA will target?

They're already on the Trans porn sites and meeting the drag queens at the motel after church on Sundays.  Its all projection. The loudest trans and homophobes are in the closet.  Book it.

It's like when Naziholic was convinced the boxer from Algeria was trans in a country where it is strictly forbidden. It's not about protecting girl's sports; it's about being able to attack girls you don't find feminine enough.
