		Rygian on Feb 5, 2025 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Avoiding outrage fatigue while staying informed Your comment relies on the broken assumption that outrage is caused by the outragee having stupid opinions/being stupid. It fails to account for the majority of outrage-inducing news where the stupidity is at the source.
