The paper presents a large‑scale study of ragebait—content designed to provoke anger—on Japanese posts on X. It introduces a labeled dataset created with a large language model, trains Japanese language models, and builds an ensemble classifier that detects ragebait. Applying this detector to a vast dataset reveals that ragebait is especially common in politically and socially contentious topics, spreads faster, and elicits stronger negative emotions than non‑ragebait posts.

The paper presents a large‑scale study of ragebait on Japanese X, developing an ensemble classifier trained on a dataset labeled with the help of a large language model. The detector was applied to a vast collection of Japanese posts, revealing that ragebait is especially common in politically and socially contentious topics such as politics, discrimination, public health, and interpersonal conflict. Ragebait posts spread more quickly and elicit stronger negative emotions—anger, fear, disgust, sadness, and surprise—than non‑ragebait posts.
