The trick is to keep your comments vague enough that you can respond to any criticism with "that's not what I'm saying, learn to read". Notice that at no point do they explain what they actually mean, though. Only that all criticism of their point, whatever that might be, is wrong.
Naw, the trick is to twist a basic comment into a three paragraph rant, include tons of "facts" that aren't there, and then try to rage bait others into your made up "argument".
Even better when the original person does explain what they meant and others don't bother to read it, but fully engage in the rage bait.
If the text you quoted (requoted below because you seem to have a strained relationship with truth) is what you call rage bait, I can't help but wonder what your take on actual rage bait might be.
