Outrage as Entertainment: Why we’re addicted to anger
In this modern world of endless social media scrolling and heightened divisions, do you ever find yourself looking for something to be angry about? Perhaps you click into Twitter with the intention of seeing what the "other side" has to say fully expecting to get riled up about it? If so, you're not alone. Many of us have found ourselves caught in this "outrage as entertainment" cycle. Are we addicted to outrage? What purpose does outrage serve? Is this type of morally cloaked anger prosocial or are we merely feeding into a self-serving neurobiological brain loop when we go looking for injustices? What biases underpin our perceptions?

In this article we’ll flip this perception—the one that vilifies triggers—on its head. We'll explore why welcoming emotional triggers is a necessary step in the process of deep healing. And how the things and people that trigger us serve as messengers and as tour guides, leading us to the areas that need to be healed.
