    Of course. Perhaps I should add that I’m not from a native-English speaking country. I’ve seen lots of times where people, mostly not so highly educated (which is a large segment of the population), just don’t see obvious satire as it is or in their hate make the jokes part of their argument set.

    Partly because they only understand half of it or are willingly blinding themselves and just further fueling their rage.

    Just saying, source / certificates might mitigate some of those issues or at least make them easier to debunk for the ones who they forward their ‘evidence’ too.

      I think a service that certifies people identify would help a lot with online trolls. I do not know how it could be best implemented without privacy issues. However i am of the opinion that privacy online and not is very misused. So we can fight a losing battle, or we could all accept being associated with the things we post and say online. And if we accept a online identity that is linked with our real life identity we could uproot and rid ourselves of bots.
