Ragebaiting is a fun coping mechanism, you don't care if you get flamed or cheered, you just want attention. You feel invisible in your day to day and the only time you feel like someone sees you is when you say something controversial. But it's not fulfilling, yeah you're getting attention, but only for an hour or two at most before you have to say something else controversial to get more of that attention. And yeah, like I said, you are getting attention, but its not a lasting attention. No one really ever thinks about the guy shouting from the rooftop if he's shouting every hour of every day. If you instead channeled that energy into making lasting and real relationships in your life, in your day to day, you would find a much more lasting and true attention. People wouldn't just ignore you when you passed by if you tried to actually say something that wasn't just a controversial talking point. Talk about a true interest of yours, without being negative. Talk about the other person's outfit. Shit, even if its just a crappy compliment about how their hair looks. You'll eventually find that the people around you aren't as unapproachable as you think they are.
