This is the full (WIP) ranking of different types of bait and their effectiveness and features as of September 2026

A tenet of baitmaking is passion. To make effective bait, you yourself have to have some sort of connection or passion towards the takes you're posting, if not, it will be of lower quality, it won't be as fun, and you'll be working against yourself. If you're a white christian, It's hard to make anti-christian or anti-white bait. Thinking of proper bait posts will create cognitive dissonance and won't be effective. If you're a Brown Atheist however, those are far better options. Even if posting takes you don't actually agree with, they still more or less align with your identity and ideology. They are more like an extension or radicalization, than a full 180.

The writing style you should use depends on the bait you use and how high your IQ is. Certain types of bait benefit from more retarded, crude vocabulary and sentence structure, while others prefer more serious, formal, and complex speech. This concept may be harder to follow for ESLtards.


—-Satan tier bait:

Anti-White bait
<Still the gold standard. Well made posts will attract seethe from everyone. White europeans, Amerimutts, Unself-aware Browns, and Self-hating Browns. This bait benefits from calm, serious typing style, with data and infographics. Alternatively, it can be done with a more violent, ruthless tone, and gore of piss and whites dying.

Anti-Christian bait (Atheist and Pagan style)
<This is more effective than the Islamic style, because the comebacks against Atheist and Pagan perspectives is a lot more limited and weak. This attracts a lot of seethe, but in recent times, it also brings in genuine discussion

—-Allah tier bait:

Stochastic Anti-brown bait

<Unlike regular anti-brown bait, this one has extremely high effective words in to words out ratio. Good for if you feel lazy or just want to make people type. This one works basically by accusing completely random people of being brown. For example, refresh the page, take the most recent post, and reply with "You're not White lol". Reply rate is very high.

Anti Amerimutt bait
<9/11 demonstrated that this is highly effective, especially if you draw it from a pro-islamic perspective

Anti-Christian bait (Islamic style)
<This is often rarer than its counterpart, and draws in a lot of replies, but it's a lot more mutually offensive and less pure seethe than its counterpart. This is due to the widespread nature of anti-muslim propaganda, and questionable excerpts from various Hadiths.

—-Ba'al tier bait:

Random Bullshit, Go! bait
<An excellent type of bait for coordinated groups of multiple people. Spam threads which are nothing but low-effort irrelevant boring nonsense. literally just spam SNCA threads, keep bumping them, and it's surprisingly annoying for board users. Doing this alone won't work super well.

Kike bait
<Surprisingly effective for a quick few replies. Pro-israel takes will attract seethe, but this bait should be used sparingly or it gets old.

Tranny bait
<This is similar to faggot bait, but generally more effective as it draws passion from the deep seated autogynephilia of soykikes…. Sorry, I meant to say, knowledge and proximity to troonslop and related concepts. It's effectiveness scales with experience, but you'll probably troon out if you continue.

—-Christ tier bait:

Faggot bait
<It's hard to pull this type of bait off since posting bait requires at least some passion for the subject. If you're not an actual homosexual, this can feel over the top and not genuine and you'll only really attract other faggots with unenthusiastic responses rather than real seethe. Even if executed well, it's not the best.

Goon bait
<Just post gooner material. Not explicitly porn, but erotic material. It actually works extremely well, however, it will feel like a dirty tactic and unearned reppeys if you're not a gooner

Colored penises bait
<This one doesn't need much introduction. It's old and a bit tired, but legendary. Still carries some power

—-Deus tier bait:

Reddit memes
<It's fairly simple to open up a new tab, go to reddit, and spam copypaste from r/memes. This won't attract much attention on its own. You'd have to start looking around in r/traaaaaaaaaaans2 and related subreddits for more faggy and troony memes, which veers off into their territory. Even then, quality remains better than quantity, and it's not very fun.

Anti-brown bait

<This kind of blurs the line between normal rhetoric and bait. Needless to say, it's not very effective for garnering seethe. Most brown /pol/ users don't give a fuck, or they're trapped in the delusion that they're actually white.

Anti-muslim bait

<Once effective, now totally useless

If anything important was left unmentioned, feel free to say so. It's a Work in progress
