Outrage Culture

From Ascension Glossary
(Redirected from Online Shaming)

Outrage Culture is depicted by dramatic outbursts in which people claim their moral superiority and crave public recognition. We see this in people’s politically and morally charged social media posts where the comments sections overflow with fights.

The colloquial definition from Urban Dictionary defines outrage culture as when “people play the victim card and bend over backwards to be as offended as possible when they really aren't.”

People on social media platforms constantly rage against one another and relish taking offense to everything to societal detriment. This causes outrage culture to devalue the importance of sharing ideas and tolerating different opinions.[1]

Outrage Culture, Political Correctness

The western value system in the United States has been deeply mired in the effects of the Outrage Culture, building momentum through targeting the youngest minds to enforce classifications of Political Correctness for the purpose of censoring free speech and aggressively shaming people into submission. The orchestration of the plandemic along with the economic devastation of Americans, the utter destruction and anarchy in major cities, informs us of the intended direction of the current globalist agenda. Which is to destroy the American Constitution through spreading hatred and continue to demoralize its citizens in any way that they can, in order to attempt to stage their coup d’état.[2]

Political Correctness

In the early-to-mid 20th century, the phrase "politically correct" was used to describe strict adherence to a range of ideological orthodoxies. In 1934, The New York Times reported that Nazi Germany was granting reporting permits "only to pure 'Aryans' whose opinions are politically correct."

As Marxist-Leninist movements gained political power, the phrase came to be associated with accusations of dogmatic application of doctrine, in debates between American Communists and American Socialists. This usage referred to the Communist party line which, in the eyes of the Socialists, provided "correct" positions on all political matters. According to American educator Herbert Kohl, writing about debates in New York in the late 1940s and early 1950s,

The term "politically correct" was used disparagingly, to refer to someone whose loyalty to the Communist Party line overrode compassion, and led to bad politics. It was used by Socialists against Communists, and was meant to separate out Socialists who believed in egalitarian moral ideas from dogmatic Communists who would advocate and defend party positions regardless of their moral substance.— "Uncommon Differences", The Lion and the Unicorn.
