Are We Addicted to Outrage?

The hosts of Redacted Opinions discuss how constant online controversy fuels anger and division, arguing that algorithms, media, businesses, and politicians profit from outrage because it drives attention, clicks, and money.
They debate whether people are genuinely angrier or simply exposed to more anger, citing social media sensationalism, context-free viral clips, and how extreme statements can be punished by some while rewarded by an energized base.
Using examples like Trump’s media dominance, polarized debate around Gaza and rising antisemitism in Canada, and a Pew 2026 finding that most Americans think social media increases political division, they warn that team-based politics and personal hatred threaten democratic compromise.
Ultimately, they conclude the demand comes from viewers themselves, urging listeners to fact-check, seek context, ignore rage bait, and take responsibility for what they click, share, and amplify.
