Rage-baiting is a manipulative online tactic used to intentionally provoke outrage and strong emotional reactions from users. The primary goal is to increase internet traffic, online engagement, revenue, and support for the content creator. This is achieved through the use of inflammatory headlines, memes, tropes, or comments designed to elicit angry responses. By manipulating users into reacting emotionally, rage-baiting can be financially beneficial for those employing such tactics, attracting subscribers, followers, and other forms of support.
