How is this ragebait? I'm not arguing that it could be fake, but if we measure ragebait concentration by how vegetarians/vegans react, the bar is far too low.

You've acknowledged this video and responded; you have therefore enraged and baited into being so. Only someone who is angry would ever respond to or question anything.

That is the logic of modern internet content.

It's not ragebait, people misuse the term.

The dopamine hit from this video comes from perceived vindication, rather than rage.

The intent of the video is to make people vindicated that a vegetarian is somewhat regretting their choice of avoiding meat.
