Neither do I. I do like guessing them though, especially users whose participation online is largely toxic and quickly hostile.
There was also that study I saw posted to lemmy asserting “trolls” and cyber bullying positively correlated with negative personality traits like sadism and narcissism. So I get what you’re saying, some of them are just younger people who’ve lost their way online. Or perhaps they’ve experienced similar behaviour online so now they’re copying it (another article I read said this is a possibility). For this user, based on their post history, I don’t really see that.
Some people just enjoy engaging in that sort of behaviour or can’t help it due to their upbringing.
