>>42294788Ragebait isn't a new word. I'm not sure I've really seen post-millennials use it as of late*, but it's not a new word and has been used with reasonable frequency in the past (i.e. it's not a word like "tranny" which while old was never used as it is today).
*Due to your claim, I've looked around a tiny bit and don't see much of a difference compared to old usage, again unlike something like "tranny". If you could perhaps provide evidence that post-millennials are using it exclusively over "trolling" (which I still see occasionally; though certainly it is not as common as it once was, that has been the case for some time, I'd say, probably due to the mainstream popularity of the word), that would be great.
