A person that is addicted to feeling self-righteous rage stemming from a victim mindset. The have little to no understanding of the issues they champion beyond what they read in memes from the social media influencers they follow. They share these angry memes like mindless drones and identify with them, even if its for causes that would harm them personally, because they get a dopamine hit from being part of a wider social movement and fear being ostracized for thinking for themselves.

Get the ragebaitermug. A nonsense internet word created by terminally online zoomers. It was originally called "rage bait", but they removed the space in the middle for some reason. To put it simply, ragebait is the act of saying or doing something with the pure intent of angering others, whether it would be for your own entertainment or seeking attention. This is mostly done over social media, because the ragebaiters themselves are pussies who hide behind screens.
Person A: "Undertale is overrated af. The game looks like shit and the idea of 'making your own choices' has already been done way before, this is nothing new."
Person B: "2/10 ragebait. Try harder."
Person B: "2/10 ragebait. Try harder."

Get the Schrodinger's Ragebaitermug. A post made to get people to interact with the video out of anger, which in turn makes the poster money. Common ways to ragebait are acting absolutely idiotic (example: "American is the only language on earth") or saying something everyone disagrees with (example: "Depression is not real." Usually, ragebaiters are trying to sell something, such as an online course. Ragebait is not to be confused with trolling, which is one purely for the poster's own amusement instead of financial profit.
