    Outrage sells clicks and views better than anything except maybe disaster with a side of pretty young white girl.

    They want to sell you outrage. So that’s what you see all the time.

      Indeed. It’s less modern society and more three Twitter handles that are probably the same person retweeting themselves because you can find someone saying anything on Twitter to justify any made up faux outrage headline.

      Meanwhile the ‘smart’ people eat it up. How many comments in this thread lol?
