Oh yes, I'd like to outlaw the hot take. They're usually just thinly-disguised attempts to signal virtue and divide people from each other. Not to mention, they rarely exhibit rational or reasonable thought; just emotion. I don't need to know how my favorite stationery store feels about the ongoing war in Ukraine. That's not what I signed up for!

Yes! Hot takes - that's a wonderful way to describe these destabilizing outbursts!
