新素材·年度词汇 Have you ever felt angry while scrolling through short videos or social media? You might think you're just in a bad mood, but actually, you may have fallen for "rage bait"—the Oxford Word of the Year 2025.
What is rage bait? It's easy to understand: "rage" means anger, and "bait" means something to attract. So, rage bait is online content made to cause anger and upset on purpose. This term first appeared in 2002, which was used to describe a driver's overreaction to another's overtaking signal. Later, with the rise of the Internet, creators make it just to get more clicks, comments(评论), or shares.
Rage bait has many common forms on social media that you may have met. For example, some short videos overstate(夸大) small arguments between classmates, such as "Students who refuse to share books are bullies". There are also posts with one-sided views on popular hobbies, like "People who like this game are wasting time". These headlines make you uncomfortable, angry, and eager to comment. ▲
Teenagers react more strongly to negative feelings than positive ones. When they feel angry, their brains release a chemical called dopamine(多巴胺), which makes them want to watch more similar content and comment angrily. This creates a bad cycle: the more angry they feel, the more such content the app shows them. Some students even learn bad words or unfair opinions.
More and more people are talking about rage bait because they realize how it changes our feelings. For teenagers who often use the Internet, knowing how to deal with it properly is very important. This makes it necessary to learn some practical ways to stay away from its negative influences.
