Actual trolls should be able to spot this fairly quick as they often have multiple accounts and interact with their alternate personas. I would expect this to mostly silence wrong-think. e.g. anything not aligned with the group/tribe narrative. Another variation of this is echo-chamber [1]. The difference is creating a self contained echo chamber and the person leaving a comment will never see comments from real people.
