no joke, everyone bullied by cringe culture is still the big targets on today’s social media:
fat people, weebs, furries, young and/or beginner artists, alt communities (scene, emo etc.), leftists, lgbtq+ people, women, otherkin/therians, neurodivergent people
cringe culture is alive and well.
“cringe culture is dead!”
no it’s not. like i totally get saying this when you’re from an alt community or have an unconventional hobby and want to have fun, more power to you, but cringe culture literally never died. in fact, in the past few years, it’s actively been getting kinda worse
i remember back in 2016 at the peak of ‘cringe culture’ that it was still very easy to avoid. cringe was a genre that could be filtered and blocked. you could stop watching leafyishere and keemstar and whatever. you could very easily just see an EPIC SJW CRINGE COMPILATION and scroll past and forget about it. they were popular, sure, but you as an individual could ignore it. you had to actively go to a ‘cringe’ subreddit or scroll through the pits of deviantart to view cringe-related content.
cringe culture doesn’t need to call itself cringe culture because cringe culture has become normal internet culture.
it isn’t a niche anymore. it isn’t something that you can just switch off or block out. it’s in short-form content, in AI content, on social media. mocking people’s appearances and hobbies and interests and mannerisms isn’t a ‘cringe’ thing anymore, it’s just an average day on Instagram. AI content farms regurgitate everything tenfold. the divide between right and left has never been as defined on the internet as it is now.
