Polbait

A form of bait designed specifically for political purposes, extremely common in online political communities. Polbait involves posting inflammatory political content not to persuade or inform but to provoke outrage, entrench division, and energize one's own side at the expense of dialogue. A polbait post might be a deliberately misleading headline, a quote taken out of context, a caricature of opposing views—anything designed to trigger maximum political emotion. The goal is not conversation but mobilization: to make your side angrier, the other side crazier, and the center impossible. Polbait is the engine of polarization, the fuel of culture wars, the reason political discourse is now a combat sport.

Example: "The meme was clearly polbait—a deliberately inflammatory caricature of the opposing party's views, designed to provoke outrage. And it worked: thousands of angry replies, hundreds of furious threads, days of argument. No minds were changed; no understanding was achieved. But engagement soared, and that was the point. Polbait had done its job: polarize, provoke, profit."

I was surfing the net when I came across a random pooba diver offering to pay people $100 to swim in their septic tank and film himself while doing it!
