      Because outrage is the best way to get engagement. Engagement sells more ads. More ads means more money.

      We have optimized our society very poorly

          You could optimize around meeting everyone’s basic needs. Only human greed prevents us from accomplishing that.

      You think this is race baiting?

        His handle is Rev. Ray Cistman…

        I think you might need to walk this back a bit.

          You’re telling the wrong person… I’m not the one triggered by a joke that’s barely Boondocks level edge.

                No, it would just clear up some confusion about why you’re so willingly obtuse

                  If you wanted to clear this up you could just admit to the fact that you are still suffering from a bit of white fragility… which is not some irredeemable sin, you know.

                    Yeah I’m good — you not being able to digest context clues has nothing to do with any supposed white fragility. Great try, not sure why you’re race baiting — you should look inward and figure out what makes you hate white people so much.
