Description:
The word 'trol' comes from the 21st century English internet slang word 'troll', meaning a person who deliberately comments in a contentious manner on the internet in order to upset people. It was borrowed into Common from the internet culture of the early period.
Over the years the meaning has changed. Initially, the base meaning of the word expanded to include the same kind of behaviour offline and extended to include someone who was just disputatous or quarrelsome by hyperbole.
However, even by the late middle period, when the first Globalist states arose but before the founding of the New World Order, there started to be a shift to using the word to refer to any proponents of dissident, non-Globalist ideologies, from peaceful human rights activists to the most violent religious extremist and racist terrorists. Since the foundation of the New World Order, the Order likes to use the word 'trol' to lump together all of its opponents and equate peaceful dissent with violent terrorism, and this has come to be the dominant sense of the word.
Because of this very charged sense, the milder senses of the word have fallen into disuse unless the speaker wants to be very provocative.
The older meanings pertaining to arguments or disputes can still be used, but it's highly charged due to the association with political criminals and terrorists.
Noun:
As a noun, 'trol' means an ideological criminal or enemy of the Global state, stereotypically a violent terrorist of any ideological persuasion. Less commonly, it could have a sense of just a quarrelsome or unpleasant person, but it's a strong word to throw around carelessly.
The derived form 'trolysyn' can be used as a word for sedition, as well, less commonly, as disputatiousness in general.
Verb:
As a verb, 'trol' means to commit a terrorist attack or an act of sedition, which can include peacefully dissenting speech. It is a transitive skurun verb taking an ergative person performing the act and an absolutive target. The antipassive pali form is also often used, with a sense like be a trol, commit trolish acts.
Modifier:
As a modifier, 'trolys' usually means 'associated with terrorism or sedition', although it's can also have the sense of 'disputatious' if the speaker wants to be hyperbolic and shocking.
