"Right now Twitter trending topics are specifically designed as part of the big outrage machine. Many of those topics are obviously written by professional outrage activists."

Do you have proof for this? What distinguishes the writing of a professional outrage activist vs. an amateur outrage activist? What's the difference between an activist and an outrage activist? I hope it isn't whether you agree with that particular bit of outrage or not.

Without proof of your claims, is your comment outrage about alleged outrage?
