Social media is no longer a tool for connection but a viral outrage machine that harvests and monetises our worst impulses. As a result, we are being driven apart: politics is becoming more extreme, young women are following dangerous health advice and young men are adopting the sexist attitudes of their grandpas. Most troubling: it has spawned a new class of powerthose who know how to game the outrage economy to change how you vote, what you buy, and who you hate.Welcome to the era of Angertainment. Social media outrage is an entire industry. Rage-baitthe 2025 Word of the Yearisn't just an internet annoyance, it has become the supreme vehicle for building political and cultural capital.

Darkly funny and terrifyingly urgent, Angertainment provides a chilling look at how the fusion of anger and entertainment has upended everything from the family dinner table to the halls of government.Coper doesnt just show you how the world was broken; he hands you the toolkit to fix itthe groundbreaking first manual for dismantling the outrage machine.First, we must understand it. Then we can work to defeat it. Shipping may be from our Sydney, NSW warehouse or from our UK or US warehouse, depending on stock availability.
