A long-form response post or comment made in a Q&A scenario, which feigns genuine interest in answering the OP’s question or solving their plight in the first paragraph or two, but reveals the commenter’s ulterior motive upon further reading. This motive could involve trying to convert the OP to the commenter’s religion, pushing political propaganda, pushing a sweeping lifestyle change like minimalism or veganism, attempted cult or MLM recruitment, or advertising a product or service. It can also be a convoluted form of trolling, in which the flytrapper’s goal is to waste the OP’s time, give a false sense of security, then try to make them feel shame or embarrassment for asking the question in the first place.
