literally just stepped in the house this was perfectly timed cam

Same here. Just got home from volunteering, so this is perfect

[@georgiagembel1185]

Same ahahah

[@rainbs2nd]

Rage bait is pretty much 90% of twitter now. When I'm scrolling through the Timeline, most posts are blue checkmarks sharing absolutely insane opinions or saying objectively wrong things, and it's usually just for people to disagree with them in the comments.

[@jailoranges]

So true - one of the main reasons I deleted it. The same with threads too, I always get recommended rage bait on insta to try and get me to download it

[@xofi.]

I swear rage bait was a blue comment I'm not going crazy am I?

[@Xxkandykilla]

⁠@@xofi.nah i saw that too

[@wils35]

Is it all kids on these twitter and tiktok? Do adults actually go on there and view the crap?

[@elerigwen8013]

nah cause i hate it soooo bad, ik it’s bait but i can’t stop the rage flowing out onto my keyboard 💀 i wanna delete twitter but there’s some funny asf posts on there sometimes 💀

[@Steambean-4]

Cam just wanna say I love how down to earth and humble u have stayed over the years, you’ve not let the success of ur social media career go to ur head like 98% of influencers plse plse don’t ever change. Us Doughnuts 🍩 need u to cheer us up I always binge watch ur channels wen I’ve had a bad day. Thankyou

[@ekuLsemaN]

I'm a big jj fan, but his attitude, actions and business decisions and partners recently have made me feel really uncomfortable. I've lost alot of respect for him and honestly this is tarnishing his legacy. The legacy he's worked and preached so hard about for years. It's embarrassing 😕

[@MassiveEverywhere]

Exactly, he’s always mentioned how legacy is important to him but clearly he cares more about money based on these last few weeks, really disappointing

[@clairycontrary1658]

Legacy!! 😂😂 I don't think KSI and legacy belong in the same sentence 😂

[@Cf-82]

It's the worst time possible to go in business with Mr beast

[@JordanMillsTracks]

honestly I agree, i realised he was ragebaiting pretty quick into the dantdm thing and its honestly sad to see him so actively manipulating his audience, used to be a fan of his

[@taboo1459]

Nah, load of rubbish. K to the S to aaaaaaIIIIIIIgght 💪👍😁

[@parasite-b9604]

KSI saying "womp womp" instantly got my back up. Now I know where idiots on Instagram get their echo chamber of words and terms from. Influencers need to stop in general. They have a lot to answer for with modern day society.

[@456coolkid1]

The only person online I don’t mind saying ‘womp womp’ is Adam McIntyre because he uses it to highlight idiots on the internet that need correcting.

[@Annamarsellaa]

Cam please get Arthur hill, Arthur tv, Bach and George on and react to old X factor auditions, they are class 😂❤

[@jadeshepherd8627]

Hopefully not the vid of the pink tribute act though, the producers behind the x factor made her look awful, which led to her getting cyber bullied by tons of people. The woman (I can't remember her name) had made KZbin videos about it

[@crazyknitter22]

Those who base their content solely on making people angry won't last forever. You can fool people for a certain time but at some point people just get bored of it and move on. It easy money for them. I guarantee you, producing good content that keeps people hooked and creates a loyal fan base is a harder but a far better way forward and it will earn you a good living in the long run and maybe even lead to great opportunities. Keep going Cam, you are very entertaining and your research is exceptional. As for what you said about rage bait, don't fall for it, donuts. Same with trolls. Scroll and forget about it. Don't feed the trolls and the rage baiters!

[@Harriet-n4v]

That alarm genuinely sends an indescribable pain through my body. I think it needs to be studied

[@arsenalthouse3035]

Cam, this was so good. I really enjoyed the analysis. Please please do more vids like this

[@CamKirkham]

Thank you 🙌🏻

[@nathangaspacio6128]

Feel bad for the other sidemen in all this. They don't benefit from any of the promotion KSI has gotten from this, but they all have to deal with the negative attitudes towards him going forward.

[@lukewarmape603]

Not to get all parasocial but Vik especially seems so fucking done with JJ and that’s before all this shit

[@nathangaspacio6128]

@@lukewarmape603 I think they get along alright off camera but Vik is not a fan of JJ's on camera personality. Especially on reacts lmao.

[@jextra4096]

How do you know

[@lukewarmape603]

@@nathangaspacio6128 Yeah ofc i'm sure they're still good friends, do not seem to have a good professional relationship though

[@nathangaspacio6128]

@@jextra4096 Common sense. KSI's ragebaiting primarily benefits prime, lunchly, and his new music. It hasn't really promoted any Sidemen products. The only effect I can see it having for them is putting fans off from watching the Sidemen channels because they dont like KSI.

[@0nly_198]

literally have thousands of accounts muted on twitter because of how much i refuse to engage with rage bait

[@millahewitt]

honestly a top tier vid, I love when you do this video essay style videos picking apart stuff like this, especially when its to do with analytics and profits and the way these systems work. honestly, the recent fall off of ksi has been super interesting to watch as he's gone from the of the top KZbin creators loved by almost everyone in the uk to a huge sell out

[@caitlan]

Rage baiting is a good marketing scheme don't get me wrong but alot of people will take it literally, especially people like me who are on the spectrum (autism.) Atleast you've helped some of us who can spot signs of it easily now because of this video. btw I love your videos!!

[@AutismoMa]

Got autism myself and I'm so glad for this video explaining some of these things. Knowing whether it's real or not is so hard, I think all this stuff is real cuz I never understood why someone would fake this stuff or want to be known for these things.

[@johnniequick1756]

Steps to beating your rage bait habit 1. Type comment 2. Proof read comment 3. Look in the mirror 4. Shake your head at yourself 5. Delete comment 6. Repeat steps 3 and 4 everytime you see a mirror

[@nathangaspacio6128]

Sometimes I'll type out a response to a ridiculous comment then think "why am I writing this?" and delete the whole thing.

[@RobbieKing-ze9oh]

It better yet just block the account 👌 thank me later

[@Double.D.Tootss]

As an American, rage bait enrages me because there are SO MANY REAL THINGS TO BE ANGRY ABOUT RIGHT NOW. The ultimate definition of "touch grass." Touch grass and burn flags. Be so for real rn

[@chloebudd8022]

IM SO GLAD YOU SPOKE ABOUT THIS!!! honestly sick of seeing rage bait everywhere, theres no genuine influencers around anymore in the UK 🥺

[@princesspixxie]

Cam I've watched you for years, I've been here over several accounts since the garage videos. Totally agree with getting a genuine audience as you've built the doughnuts (Arise). Much love Cam x

[@CamKirkham]

This is so class to hear, thank you for supporting over the years !

[@Annamarsellaa]

Cam your posts lately have been 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@Georgia-i8k]

The thing I hate most about rage baiting is the compassion fatigue and the misinformation that it can spread. And also the feeling of powerlessness when it involves animals and children.

[@brandonlee7382]

This is such an important topic. I fall for this alot. You are right the people make zero progress in the gym on purpose. They get alot of opportunities because they famous and even calabs but they decline them. Thanks for this video.

[@Pickledwitch]

I hate rage bait, but you're right about it being an interesting development. Newspapers have been doing it for decades already, we all know a sensational headline sells papers, rage bait is just the social media version of the same tactic. From a psychology perspective it's really clever, humans naturally pay more attention to things that provoke anger or fear, it's a survival instinct. I don't blame content creators for doing it since the algorithms make this content the most desirable but I really do wish it would stop, mostly because it clogs up my feeds with shit that isn't real. There's also the fact it's deceptive, a lot of people don't know what's happening and believe the rage bait is true. This can create dangerous situations, after seeing it enough people can be mad enough to actually act on these posts instead of just commenting on them. I've even seen a parent using their child to make rage bait and get engagement, this kid is getting abuse in the comments section. It's unethical and harmful in many ways, I feel like there needs to be a crackdown on it now because it's just gone way too far.

[@hollyfrx]

honestly I'd rather be a kindhearted, likable influencer with 1k subs than a rage-baiting, unpopular and hated influencer with 10mil subs

[@dxwsonsgirl.x]

sameeee

[@urmomgoestocollege69]

proud to say I've never saw a beevo video that hasn't been from a commentary KZbin channel 🎉

[@lisamgreenleaf]

Ahhhh young Cam, I've only been watching ya a couple days but you come across as such a sound lad. When I hear "ha'way man" or your voice at full high pitch, I just know there must be sheer audacity playing out.

[@rosiedollface]

Your opinions + views are SPOT ON ! That whole KSI part that you spoke couldn't have been more accurate too. It's sad to see him get that low, because his song is possibly like Rebecca Black's 'Friday' (He even responded to her tweet about him talking about her song in a little clip hahahaha), KZbin analytics are also my fave, been using KZbin/Twitter since it pretty much began + we didn't have any of this... I'm baffled of wehre it's come from + mind blown to see how popular rage baiting is.... great video as always you lovely little wholesome donut hah :D

[@Lorenzo_02]

Getting called a donut makes my weekend thanks cam !

[@Granny_Cat_Lady]

Cam, I am one of your older followers, but I love watching you - you're a breath of fresh air & hilarious to boot 😂🤣😂 I was diagnosed AuDHD at the age of 42 & anyone unfortunate enough to know me knows my special interest is aviation, so they try to avoid the subject around me, but when I find a fellow ND person I love them to get onto the topic of their special interests, it fills me with such happiness to see a passion in their eyes & their body language changes as they get more excited by the topic, it's like riding their wave the happiness ❤ To be fair I scroll through KZbin shorts & if the video is loud & or the person is over-excitable it's an instant turn off so I scroll on past, it's too overwhelming for my ND brain to deal with, but I enjoyed this video because now the reasons behind those noisy & irritating videos makes a degree of sense - I shall still be avoiding them like the plague, but it's good to know why they exist 👌 Incidentally, I have started calling people Doughnuts 🍩 ... Thanks Cam 🤣😂🤣

[@Psmith-9778]

Beavo doesn’t even have to rage bait me just the look of him pisses me off.

[@Sally-Anne-osmer]

It’s just sad man, they’re swapping potential long term notability for short term popularity based on negative behaviour. That’s never gonna end well ✌🏻

Not the alarmmmmm 💀im genuinly scared from waking up to that sound

[@Hayley448]

Love coming home from a shit day at work, chilling out and watching Cam

[@Vlow_vr]

The problem w/ KSI's rage bait is the long term effects it will have & how it affects the ppl in his circle like the Sidemen. Ppl will stop watching them eventually & I'm sure his fellow creators will not appreciate it cuz it makes them look bad as well.

[@liamkelly1999]

The news and media have been using RageBait for decades now. A story where nothing happens or even something good happens would never sell. Never forget that the news and the media is a BUSINESS. There are profits at stake.

[@hilton9697]

Watching this whilst being hospital only had to skip the foody parts, but entertaining and very informative you know, nice to see someone so passionate about an interest like algorithms, thankyou Cam 😊

[@darcytelevision]

glad we got 2,500 likes on the last video so this could drop today been buzzing for this to come out

[@DoraSometimes]

400k Cam!!?! Congratulations! Every single one if those is well deserved. You're one of the most unique creators - your quick mind, insane sense of humour and perfectly dosed sarcasm are F*CKIN' BRILLIANT!!! 🍻to many more!

[@moophq]

perfect timing cam, just sat down for dinner after work

[@flaurasaurus]

Love this video Cam! You did such a good job of calling out this style of content - and I love how passionate you are about this stuff x

[@alexluvvsu]

times like recently make me happy that creators like you that i’ve followed for years have stayed the same, like i remember when XO shaved your hair n eyebrows off n you had to buy fake krave or something for the background when you used to film in the “cupboard” but even though i remember you always being open abt your struggles, you never fell into these sorts of rage bait / hate content for the money n kept being genuinely yourself and it makes me believe you truly are a lovely person with a good heart 💚 plus you’re from the north east, so that adds bonus points xD

[@minion2702]

So glad you mentioned your podcast, ive got something new to listen on the way to work

[@isaacjimmy5022]

Really love to see you branching out and making more videos just because you're interested in them - always makes for the best content imo!

[@Only_ra3z]

Cam posted, drop everything!!!

[@tiffanyprice4452]

I feel like sometimes it’s not necessarily a rage bait situation but fed up of hate and purposefully annoying the haters. I’ve used it before just to mock them. That being said I feel like the difference is when they start using it consistently because they noticed it’s a quick money maker! Cracking video dude!

[@g0blin1823-y]

Cam is literally my daily news 🫶

[@charlottedelamo5928]

i’m so happy somebody made a fkn video about this!

[@DutchBirrd]

i'm SO glad you brought up candy because i've followed her for like 3 years at this point and when she started on tik tok she made bait content similar to what she does now, but for like 2 of those years she was on private and made totally normal weight loss content until (i assume) she wanted more engagement?? and now she's back to her baiting ways 😭 honestly i respect the grind but when you've followed her for so long the bait is so blatantly clear

[@hehkulamppu05]

9:35 CAM! Do not apologize, it's fun to learn new stuff from people who are actually invested in what they are talking about. So keep telling us about youtube (or other) analytics. ✨✨

[@Shortnsweetedits]

I’m a person who works in data and has data analytics as a special interest (F1 based atm) and I loved this video thanks cam!

[@BennyBoy025]

I was kinda hoping the Sidemen videos would be safe from his trolling, but no. In the calorie video a few weeks back (probably their biggest stinker in years), he screams DanTDM at one point, then in a fifa video a few days ago he made his character called DanTDM. Just makes me want to skip past any point of a video where he's in it. A person who I've grown up watching who's known for funny and goofy acts and personas, now is a man in his 30's selling his dignity for money and success that he doesn't need. He's essentially reached Saudi league status.
