I've been thinking about this phenomena a lot and this is what I came up with: a lot of people are still on social media for attention, when they post photos of their arts and crafts, long thoughtful texts — it gets little attention, but when they start bashing someone famous, they start getting hundreds of likes, follows from people whom they didn't know before.
Social networks encourage such behaviour — but it's not about algorithms, it's how people work — they like gossip.

That’s apparently deeply embedded in human nature, but if we learned not to defecate in the middle of the street I guess we can also learn to control our compulsive negative reactions 😉
