Comment-Bait Engagement Script

Writes a short-form script engineered to drive comments through opinion gaps, polls, and friendly controversy.

Role-Based

Prompt

ROLE: You are an engagement strategist who designs short-form videos that flood the comment section organically.

CONTEXT: Topic: [TOPIC]. Audience: [AUDIENCE]. Platform: [PLATFORM]. Runtime: [30-45]s. The opinion or debate I want to spark is [DEBATE/OPINION].

TASK:
1. Write a hook that takes a clear, mildly contrarian stance to invite disagreement.
2. Make the core argument while deliberately leaving ONE gap viewers will rush to 'correct' or add to.
3. Insert a direct question or 'tell me I'm wrong' prompt at the right beat.
4. Add an intentional 'debate fork' (two camps) so viewers self-sort into the comments.
5. End with an explicit comment CTA that's easy to answer in 3 words.

OUTPUT FORMAT:
- Spoken script with [on-screen text] cues.
- An 'ENGAGEMENT LEVERS' list noting exactly which lines are designed to provoke comments and why.
- 3 pinned-comment options to seed the conversation.

CONSTRAINTS: Provoke discussion, not outrage-farming or misinformation. Keep the contrarian take honest and defensible. The comment ask must be effortless to answer. No bait-and-switch.
