In reality, people seem to follow these lessons.

Lesson 1: Never read the article—why bother when the title is all you need to fuel your righteous fury?

Lesson 2: Craft your response based solely on the title, preferably in all caps to ensure everyone knows you mean business.

Lesson 3: When engaging with comments, remember that everyone else is always wrong; they are part of a grand conspiracy against your unparalleled wisdom.

Lesson 4: You're not just right; you're a beacon of truth in a sea of misguided souls. Let that light shine, unburdened by facts or logic.

Lesson 5: Insults are the spice of life. Aim for at least two per sentence, and bonus points if you can weave in a creative metaphor involving farm animals.

Lesson 6: Always assume the worst intentions. If someone agrees with you, they're obviously being sarcastic. If they disagree, they're a troll.

Lesson 7: Grammar and spelling are for the weak. Your ideas are so powerful they transcend the need for coherent sentence structure.

I am untethered and my rage knows no bounds

How we taught the lesson in my day

"You're not obligated to respond", combined with "nobody else cares about your quarrel but you and that idiot" are the two maxims that make my social media experience better. Sometimes I feel like arguing, but if I think someone's arguing in bad faith, I just block 'em.

Life's too short to spend time interacting with morons.

People will rage at anything they don't like... Sometimes just stating a fact will get people going into spiral.

Ragebait is a fake concept invented by woke liberal media

More like "Don't believe anything you read on the internet". That would reduce the raging as well.

It should be taught in school, and tested. You shouldn't be able to graduate without basic emotional intelligence.

I disagree!!!

This is one of the reasons I left Reddit (that and getting banned multiple times in a row). At some point I realized it wasn't worth it anymore.
