Grifter/ragebait culture has created a climate where every criticism or mildly controversial thing gets blown up into a shitstorm.
That said, I'm not saying people aren't allowed to be pissed off by say PS5's price hikes, online check-ins, or game key cards or what have you, there's still room for legitimate criticism, but unfortunately there's a whole economy built around constantly looking for the next thing to get fake-outraged over, just to get those clicks and ad revenue.
There's whole channels dedicated to this and sadly they often get a lot of views.
