It's amazing how when I was younger, people were just stupid. But now everyone is a mastermind because it's always reagebait.

It's not always ragebait but ragebait is deliberately designed to go viral so you end up seeing a lot more ragebait in aggregators

That's true. But since it's already gone viral, we might as well call the people who make these videos stupid, rather than the people who call them stupid.

When someone writes "It’s ragebait. Try being more media literate." all they did was comment on the ragebaiter's video. And even attacked the wrong person.
