Facebook is like 95% ragebait by volume, so, not big surprise.

The surprise for me is Facebook paying for it.

Now you’ve seen a small fraction of the shit they’re up to. This is a terrible company. Carry this knowledge with you and share it with others if you are so inclined.

Facebook pays them indirectly all the time by pushing their accounts. Then they use that platform to push products and collect compensation accordingly.
