Fucking duh. They also can't tell they are being gaslit by bots on all their stupid conservative pages. Boomers are fucking stupid.

Kinda wish I knew what a thirst trap was..

Someone is "thirsty" for sex. A woman (or a broad approximation there of) exploits that thirst, hence "trap".

The "woman" is the thirst trap. Woman is in quotes, because it's almost always not a woman, but a bot, or one of many accounts run by scammers.

Good-looking person, usually dressed and/or posing provocatively. Often includes engagement-bait-type caption.

A thirst trap is specifically attraction as bait
