Doomscrolling. 🥵
You know the word.
Here’s the vocabulary behind it.
Rage bait: content engineered to trigger anger, because anger travels faster than facts.
Echo chamber: you only hear voices that already agree with you.
Filter bubble: the algorithm serves you more of what you clicked yesterday.
Variable reward loop: the slot-machine mechanic behind infinite scroll.
Social engineering: manipulating behavior at scale by exploiting human psychology, not code.
Predictive programming: the theory that repeated exposure to a narrative makes you accept it as inevitable.
Technostress: the clinical term for what your nervous system does after 20 minutes of all this.
None of it is accidental.
It’s a business model, and your attention is the inventory.
Own it, or it owns you.
