A rage bait artist is an individual whose entire online presence/personality is defined mostly by their topics or demeanor in which they incite rage by using intentionally provocative wording that is meant to further antagonize through manipulation tactics such as cherry-picking, red herring, or otherwise disingenuous logical fallacies meant to paint a particular narrative rather than the more complex truth.
