You should try counter-trolling. If you come across a troll in a comment section, hashtag, feed or whatever, you start mocking them directly without engaging with whatever they want you to. They're generally not used to being mocked back this way so they either get mad, and go into a dumb flame war with you and you alone, or abandon the thread and try somewhere else. You can then chase them around basically reverse-bullying them until they give up and leave. It's incredibly amusing if you have the spare time for it. Even better is encouraging the troll's original targets to join you in laughing at the troll, turning them into a communal e-pillory.
