Creators and audiences are stuck in a toxic loop:
Outrage brings attention
Attention brings engagement
Engagement brings money

Have algorithms trained us to become reaction machines instead of thoughtful users?
And are creators fueling division just to stay relevant?
If everyone’s shouting, is anyone really saying anything?
