I do want to avoid those. Not sure why you have such an issue with other people avoiding those, getting advice to avoid those and giving others advice how to avoid them.

I don't have an issue. In fact, I have over 200 filters for my own email. But it's still interesting why since it underpins the whole post and isn't really explained.

It actually is. You just have to stop assuming it is about convincing you to care or about you in general.

It is for people like them and about people like them.

People like to be outraged and outrage generation makes for good clickbait.

The only reason I’m interacting on this post is because I feel a mild sort of outrage about the author’s mild outrage. And I feel like a bit of a sucker because of that.

Presumably the intent behind my reply wasn't clear - you can make up your own mind about it.
