Socrates: A Troll?
Socrates asked “outrageous” questions to “bait people to answer”. He “delighted in sowing discord”. He “inspired flaming rhetoric” and “purposely provoked and pulled people into flaming discussion.”

He “tried to make us believe that he was a genuine skeptic with no hidden agenda,” and he was “divisive and argumentative… searching for the truth”. He “provoked people to insult him,” and he was “an expert in reusing the same words of his opponents and in turning [their words] against them.” He may have “had an agenda.”

Was he a troll?
