Attitude. Certainly not content.

I am quite disappointed that I have to explain this point. But to make
it crystal-clear: I often criticized ICANN myself (see the archives of
the GA mailing list) and many people who do so are certainly not
trolls (I could mention Michael Froomkin for instance).

I basically agree but it has nothing to do with Joe Baptista's sexist
comments or Jeff Williams' empty and unsubstantial messages.
