well this is the consequence of a platform not having a downvote button. people think that having a downvote button causes controversies because now people can be angry at other people, but actually it allows people to downvote bad content to remove it from the algorithm without having to click + write a comment.

This is the exact reason conservative streamers have risen as quickly as they have. It’s all rage-bait engagement farming.

Pretty much every form of content these days is engagement bait. As it turns out, the only things advertisers care to clutch their pearls over in the modern age is sex and drugs. The only concern otherwise is getting as many eyes on it as possible, and nothing gets attention quite like outrage.

I guess this is what people mean when they say there is no such thing as bad publicity!
