Angertainment is a great way to describe the emotional experience most social media platforms are optimizing for.

"This is about politicians politicizing the LGBTQ community for their own gains. What this does is pull us back and actually hurt trans youth because they need this health care. It’s medically important." @sarahkateellis.bsky.social on @cnn.com this morning⬇️
