A ragebaiter is someone who deliberately creates content designed to provoke maximum outrage — the architect behind the inflammatory takes, misleading headlines, and deliberately offensive posts that send the comments section into chaos. Rageba iters understand the algorithm rewards anger and consciously engineer their output to trigger it, often while publicly playing innocent when called out. They're distinct from people who are simply wrong or offensive: the ragebaiter does it on purpose, with calculated precision, and usually profits from the engagement their manufactured fury generates.
Don't give that account any engagement — they're a known ragebaiter who posts inflammatory stuff just to watch people melt down.
