What exactly is a “hot take” in this context?
If someone were to post “How McDonald’s makes their burgers” would it be a hot take because In-N-Out also makes burgers?

- onlyonhckrnws 4y agoA hot take here is anything that remotely triggers cognitive dissonance.
- yallpendantools 4y agoMaybe don't present a problem as "American" when the problem is global? The problem is not so much that America manufactures poverty as much as that the consumerist(/capitalist) economic system the majority of the world depends on manufactures poverty. The article is just listing out American symptoms of a global disease.
- braingenious 4y agoI’m still not following here. If somebody were to post their personal experience with chlamydia would you reply with be “It’s a hot take to not mention the very serious problem that chlamydia poses to koala bears. When I read about something happening somewhere, I assume that that means it isn’t happening elsewhere.”
- jspaetzel 4y agoA hot take is defined as "a quickly produced, strongly worded, and often deliberately provocative or sensational opinion or reaction (as in response to current news)" So you can't really do a hot take on a personal experience. Because a personal experience generally isn't "hot". You'd just be an a-hole. You might be able to have a hot take specifically about chlamydia in koalas though... ouch. Lets try... "Koala bears keep dying because they cant keep it in their pants" See the difference? AKA Click Bait.
