Mammalian brain · Emotional Priming

Outrage Framing

Content built to trigger moral indignation spreads faster and is judged less; outrage narrows attention, raises sharing, and can be pointed at a target on demand.

An everyday example

A screenshot stripped of context that has you sharing before you have checked the source.

What it can cost you

Acting and spreading on a frame someone chose for you; decisions made angry.

Warning signs

  • I shared before I checked.
  • I feel certain and angry at once.

One thing to do

Anything that makes you furious gets a 24-hour hold and a source check before you act or share.
