covid bait

A person with one or more visible risk factors for severe Covid-19 illness, especially if the factors are within the individual's ability to mitigate.

Jerry's over 300 pounds and I saw him sharing smokes with the other factory workers. That guy is covid bait, it's just a matter of time.

Red-Baiting

A logical fallacy that consists of making an accusation that some person is a communist, often with the aim of discrediting them. It can also be used to discredit an idea. It's most used in politics, often by right wingers when discrediting anything slightly left leaning.

Red-Baiting can be boiled down to: "Anything I don't like is communist!"

Religion baiting

Religion baiting is a sub genre of fear baiting. It is type of content that usually starts with “scroll if you hate Jesus”. Which uses Religion as a way to stop you. And it uses fear of going to hell as a way to make you watch the video. The content creator then proceeds to tell you to comment, like, and subscribe if you love Jesus. It makes kids interact with their video pushing it to more people.

Some of the worst people on earth: “I have an idea! I should use Religion baiting to get more subscribers on my shitty Roblox YouTube Shorts account.”
