Clickbait Jockey

Radio show presenters/hosts who do not achieve their status by merit or talent but by their ability to divide opinion and create social media mountains out of molehills. They are also prepared to endorse conversational topics which would, in regular discussion, send a glass-eye to sleep. Naturally, they think twitter is a reflection of the zeitgeist.
"Welcome to the show. Today's topic, is Donald Trump really an introvert? Call in now on..."

'autistic' clickbait

A phrase made by Sawtooth18 on Scratch, someone who makes these types of projects is obviously autistic, and/or it can grab an autistic person's attention.
'autistic' clickbait projects are usually grounding/ungrounding, alphabet/number-related projects, and other cartoony, colorful characters.
Example: search up "Klasky Csupo gets grounded" and you'll see those vids, also there are 2 or more characters, 1 thumbs up and the other thumbs down.
It’s just that the chance of them being neurodiverse is very high.
(No offense to autistic people, I'm autistic myself)
Lil' austin wanted to watch the Ipad, so mom gave him the Ipad. As he was watching, older bro, Narchy, saw him watching sound effects g major stuff and 'autistic' clickbait.(Since Lil' Austin was autistic himself) He had no idea who came up w/ these
