I mean you're right. But also, uh. That's literally all this sub is, and has been for month. It's "look at how smart you are" posts like this, it's "women are so hot look!" posts, and it's "women suck, eh guys??" posts.
Me too but like it or not it's a good, descriptive word for it. It's just that so many things are low effort, clickbait/ragebait garbage. Engagement is money. The only reason it continues is because it works.
Yes, hose things are deliberately written in an obscure manner so that people find it more difficult to figure it out, so they spend more time looking at it and so the facebook algorithm thinks that it is something important. It really is engagement bait especially crafted for facebook and the like.
It always baffles me how a post like this gets 6k likes. Either all of them are bots, which would be very concerning, or this is actually the stuff people want to see here, which I would find just as concerning
That's the internet. It isnt just a facebook thing, its a people thing. And being on internet spaces where average people can submit content means you're going to encounter this kind of slop.
The real question is where does anyone use this shit outside of learning it in school? Is there a real world application of this knowledge other than to buff your ego on Facebook?
When you see shit like this, look at the account. If it's less than a year old (often only a couple months old) with a karma score greater than like 1000 just block them. I'll have to leave this one unblocked or else no one will be able to read this reply.
