being a hater and being a troll are different but idk how to articulate the difference
Trolling inherently involves another person. A troll is trying to waste your time and/or generate a reaction. It is entirely cynical.
Hating can be done in private, even monasticslly. But hating at a person is an invitation to banter. The goal is to hit that perfect funny/cutting/true sweet spot, and it's fun if the target of your hating can return with an equally funny/cutting/true comeback.
