If you amplify an obvious sock puppet outragebait account I cannot take you seriously as a person and I don't believe anyone else should either.
If you're quotedunking from fucking twitter I cannot take you seriously as a person and I don't believe anyone else should either.

In our attention economy Trump & the rightwing have pretty successfully set the nation's agenda for the past decade. Dems haven't been very successful at outragebait and clickbait and coordinated attacks and the other assorted nonsense that dominates the public screens.

They do like the outragebait and creating us/them and hate-objects. And maybe this will work and Trump will get a rally around the flag to help his sad approval rating (idk!). Maybe it's a better newscycle for him than economy sucks, Iran sucks, market went down, massive debt, corruption, and etc.

Huh turns out my ForYou feed is 80% nsfw content. That's not exactly what I was trying to curate. Weird choice between outragebait and onlyfans lol. Gotta try something else.

Yah, but they didn't!
And that's The Problem.
They willingly chose to believe some random outragebait.
They chose to harass Kiseff.
They very consciously picked the wrong choice.
Because going "hold on, let me see this" is so out of style.....
Prolly they will sweep their actions under the rug.

I've had so many constructive conversations since coming here, I don't worry about monetized outragebait and bots, no one's advertising supplements at me in the comments, and I can manually adjust my feeds to see the content I want to see.
I'm really enjoying it.

Invading Greenland is to distract from being a sentenced felon. Annexing Canada is to distract you from tax cuts. The Gulf of America is to distract you from Co-POTUS Elon.

God, the "I st/and with V/ic" crowd being a misogynist harassment campaign makes SO much sense and matches up with my expectations. A lot of them were just in it for clout and only wanted that outragebait youtube revenue, too.
It's just really nasty how obsessive people got about him.

Lot of “intellectuals” on here posting the latest outragebait NYT headline day after fucking day.
Every day, like trained monkeys, first reading that newspaper then spreading its propaganda.
Can you please expect the bare minimum from yourselves? Either stop reading or stop being shocked.

I left Musk's hellsite for a reason. If I wanted outragebait, I'd still be on there.
So I have a similar policy going as Bryan.

I've gone to blocking folks who post tweets or crap from other social media outlets. If I wanted to see those, I would still be on those crappy sites.

Trump backed down from both tariffs and sending migrants on military planes, and if you think this outragebait is gonna get you subscribers you're wrong.

And this is kind of a meme, but it's true. People came here from Twitter and brought with them the culture of Twitter. And the same people who are popular on Twitter for posting stupid bullshit, outragebait, ironic nonsense, are bringing their followers, too.

Vice outragebait probably sells a lot. I think all the videos of people outside with the AVP are guerrilla marketing tbh

Ok my whole Discover feed is starting to become political outragebait.
Not why I'm here, I need to start using that "Show less" button.

So much radicalization & hate was peddled ironically, using schrodinger's jokes (e.g say sometime outrageous, then if people get mad say "jk, jk, ... unless...")
Plus a bunch of outragebait was based on context collapse of "obvious" jokes.
It's a feature not a bug that most on here are earnest

I can fix my recommendations with a couple of clicks, by never using autoplay, and by having a 900 video long "watch later" playlist from reputable historians, musicians, language learning podcasts, and crafting content, but I also can tell what's outragebait because I wasn't born yesterday.

Honestly, at this point, I don't even think he deserves the blame for this. Like, people do this to themselves; he merely provides the testing grounds to see if they can overcome the outragebait brainrot.
