Queer-Baiting

Queer baiting is a marketing strategy that utilizes fictional media and/or entertainment to draw attention to LGBT/Queer members in order to benefit and/or make money while attracting the attention of more people.

Person A: Have you heard about the celebrity who posted a sexually suggestive photo of themselves with other females with the statement "I love girls"?

Person B: Yeah, it's a little odd because she isn't even a lesbian? It's like Queer-Baiting.

freedom-baiting

The efforts of politicians, and the media to generate support of the masses by stating that their right to speak, act, and think as they wish is somehow threatened by a certain person, group, or nation.

Master-baiting troll

The creepiest kind of Facebook troll.
The type that sits on Facebook community pages tagging you in everything to get a rise out of people and bait you in.
Sometimes they even may feature your photos in their own groups.
It really gets them off.
