<div dir="ltr">Huh, thanks! Kat Williams (a comedian). Has a riff about that. Basically he felt at one time if you didn't have 'haters' (trolls) because of some issue they have. You might be doing it wrong. Basically if you don't have people challenging you (even as jackasses/trolls/haters) you need to step up your game. At least that's his thinking.

He does a very good job in a small book placing our modern (stigmatized) troll within the larger space of contrarians. And he talks about a lot of pop culture, too (from Nu-metal to Guy Fieri to Jesse Pinkman. His pithy _wit_ gets a little annoying at times. But I definitely recommend it.<br>
