i knew this guy that, probably out of all his unstructured time, a good 70% of it was spent writing reviews and commenting argumentatively on reviews of books on the amazon website. he admitted to me that he never read any of the reviews, but was quite certain of his positions. it should be noted that he was supposed to be spending some time cleaning the apartment he lived in or looking for work to help his much younger girlfriend, who was the sole income earner and general handler of household tasks like paying bills, preparing food, and keeping the place tidy.
years later, she sent his ass packing. within a year, he had turned into hard into trad greek orthodox shit and posting anti-islam/anti-LGBTQ+ diatribes on facebook, replying endlessly and at length to anyone who disagreed.
at a certain point, if arguing in defense of hot takes becomes its own end and if you're addicted to the conflict of arguing, you may not care how you get your fix.
