You need to get out of the bubble if you think that it's all a paid troll army. Did you see the latest Republican primary? There are a LOT of people that buy into this stuff. The reality is that right-wing Internet communities have become almost entirely defensive and driven by counter-narrative because they lack a narrative of their own other than "I'm not a bad person." If you want proof, you don't need to look much farther than how cobbled together and narrowly relevant the "free speech" defense to Milo's troll tour has been, but there are plenty of examples. I think it would be great if people counter-trolled them, but then you have to adopt their tactics, and that means going after their credibility instead of their moral deficiency, and also understanding what they think to the point that you can throw things at them that they haven't formulated a defense to.
