Curious me here, how would you troll?
For example, in the r/newzealand Reddit which is full of bleeding heart social justice warrior lefties, I would post comments in support of one of our minor parties that sits more centre-right on the spectrum (there is an election on at the moment)
That really riles them up, I get a heap of downvotes but also a couple of supportive comments from the 2% of other people on that sub that dare have a different opinion from the hivemind
omg this is just poking the bear. I love it
On other unrelated things, this is why political groups should be not reserved, leaves an echo chamber that traps people
