You Mean Trolling? is a phrasal template that is used to mispresent various illegal or heinous acts as trolling a certain category. This can be done in numerous ways, although the most common one is by having a picture represent something related to the act, while a Trollface is photoshopped on top of a character in the foreground.

The character was widely talked about online as all other Loki's shown in the series have been human, adding to the mystery of the multiverse. The character has a shocking scene in the middle of his debut episode, and since then has been featured in a myriad of memes putting him inside other scenes of the MCU, as well as comparing him to the Marvel version of a Baby Yoda character.
