Triggerbait (Content Making)

A content strategy that deliberately invokes sensitive topics—trauma, identity, politics, abuse—to provoke visceral emotional responses and maximize engagement. Unlike reactionbait, which often aims for general shock, triggerbait targets specific psychological vulnerabilities. Creators may feign trauma, mock genuine suffering, or create content designed to “trigger” certain communities (e.g., making light of sexual assault, mocking mental health struggles, trivializing historical atrocities). The goal is to ignite controversy that drives algorithmic amplification. Triggerbait exploits the fact that outrage and pain travel faster than thoughtful content, treating real human suffering as fuel for metrics.
Triggerbait (Content Making) Example: “The video was titled ‘Why victims are just too sensitive.’ It had no argument, just provocative statements designed to make trauma survivors flood the comments. Textbook triggerbait: using others’ pain for views.”

An alternative to evidence-based decision making, "decision-based evidence making" is the practice of collecting evidence to support a pre-existing decision, rather than using evidence in any way to inform the decision itself.

This technique typically involves cherry-picking sources or relying on bad or unreliable authorities to justify or legitimise (after the fact) a questionable decision which has already been made.
Dr. Daniel Jernigan resigned from CDC in 2025, telling reporters that Robert F Kennedy Jr seems to be "going from evidence-based decision making to decision-based evidence making" as the Centres for Disease Control began citing debunked studies to support a dodgy claim that vaccines cause autism.

Not what happened.
Hym "You're making shit up because you though I was making shit up. Your skeptical and attitude towards me and people like me is why you didn't believe me and not a lack of evidence and now you are trying to exclude me from a remedy that you only know you need because of me. This is not gratitude what you are doing here. You are trying to make it worse for me and I did not do that to you."
