Trigger-baiting

Trigger-baiting is the act of deliberately creating content designed to provoke a strong emotional response, typically anger or outrage, in order to boost engagement or farm for views through algorithm-driven exposure.

Trigger-baiting people can be harmful, especially when it leads to online bullying and harassment.

Deliberately doing something considerably cringe to gain views, likes, or in general attention on social media OR in real life, making someone cringe. So exactly like rage bait, but with cringe.

don't make it bait

Another way of saying "don't be obvious" when you're doing something that you don't want someone to know about.

*Friend 1 leaves his cookies lying around*
Friend 2 to Friend 3: Imma steal some
*Leaves pack in a different position*
Friend 3: Bro don't make it bait

Friend 2: My bad
*Moves it back to make it not bait*
