Mentioned as not being a troll for "telling the truth"...

Right, because "truth" is a completely not subjective concept.

Aka: "it's only trolling when I disagree with the opinions being expressed"

it belongs not to the serious person to be a troll but to the one who lacks education
Among the maxims on Lord Naoshige's wall there was this one: "Matters of great concern should be treated lightly." Master lttei commented, "Matters of small concern should be treated seriously."
