David Hogg Thinks His Conspiracy Theorist Trolls Are Full of Shit - Motherboard
 This attitude is consistent with Hogg's previous declarations. He's gone after everyone from former sheriff and noted media hated David Clarke--he said "You disgust me" after Clarke tweeted that the Parkland teens were connected to George Soros-- to Fox News host Laura Ingraham and her advertising revenue. He chalks this approach up to his age, which is both encouraging (today's teens know how to harness and handle the internet better than any of us) and depressing (this is likely the only version of the internet they've experienced.)

"[We're] the generation of 9/11, the recession, cyberbullying, and school shootings," he said. "We've had to live around that and through that our entire lives. We've had to learn to deal with these sick fuckers that are saying this stuff, that are out there, claiming that we're not real people, claiming that we're actors--and we know not to let this stuff online affect us."

(The attitude may also come from his mother, who at one point said, in reference to online threats made against her family, "You fucked with the wrong mama bear.")
