It's been theorised that we evolved to find embarrassment so unbearable because in the past, being ostracised by your tribe was literally a death sentence. Cringe is second-hand embarrassment, so we simultaneously feel both the pain of imagining being them, and also the desire to publicly reject them, so as to make it clear we are not in their group and do not condone their behaviour.

I agree. A lot of healthy couples who post things on the internet often expose themselves to very hurt or misguided people that love to wander the internet and project their very unhealthy views onto their posts. For instance, many people on the internet cannot comprehend the idea of trusting your partner and the fact that cheating does not happen in every relationship. Or that some girls genuinely dislike the idea of cheating in general, they've been too hurt to acknowledge that not everyone is the same. It's very bizarre when you've been exposed to many good and healthy relationships and see people genuinely believing they don't exist.

I feel like it has much to do with insecurity. We cringe more at what we know we've done or seen personally done in the past, i.e. doing something embarrassing on stage or otherwise in front of people you don't know. Natural human conformity combined with the anonimity of the internet can be a vile compound. Cringe is everywhere. It is the inevitable byproduct of sincerity. At least in that second video it is. In the first video, it was a slightly misguided attempt at making something relatable, and the second video was a purely innocent display of a very odd personal display of affection. Not the worst thing in the world, and somewhat embarrassing, yes, but ultimately, no one is hurt and no one is even inconvenienced. Nothing says you can't share weird love online as long as it's not explicit. I dunno. Tldr: I think people need to calm down and find some other hobby that makes them feel good.

@@donaldwobamajr6550 This. Maybe people had to have been there at the time, but it should be remembered that Dean, who had been polling 1st in Iowa (and in the whole race) for months, lost momentum at the end and came in 3rd place in the final tally; then he gave the "scream" speech to his Iowa crowd, after a disappointing finish, which is why people felt it was bizarre-after all, why would you give "victory speech" energy when you came in lower than expected? (Though, looking into the situation, the reason he seemed "too energetic" was actually because the media microphones weren't picking up the crowd's volume that he was shouting over, thus making him seem like he was shouting over near-silence.) Anyway, he didn't lose the nomination over that scream, because he arguably already lost his chance with that third place finish; while there's an argument that the media's over-replaying of that scream cost him New Hampshire the next week, the writing was already on the wall that Dean was done and Kerry/Edwards were the new front-runners.

I feel that Cringe is the same as any other emotion. The reaction you give is what you feel about it, but like any other emotion, there is a spectrum of feelings. Some react extremely over cringe causing hatred. Others embrace cringe, thus cringe videos are made. People are weird, even though we are unique, we all feel alone. This is why we tend to join groups, and communities, but end up joining groups inside of groups. Some try to be like others, others try to figure out who they are. Some realize what they are, and what part of the group they accept or associate with. At the end of it all, we are all lost and seeking someone to be part of.

Hasanabi had also claimed that they were cringe, and even made fun of their idol group dances, accents, and stereotyping them as Korean. Meanwhile, the same TikTok community that harassed some idol group of girls who just wanted to have fun would be the same community who would fall in love/idolize with Devon Erickson, the 2018 Colorado school shooter. They made tons of edits and videos begging for his freedom, despite being a convicted felon.

its more like the fact she filmed it. theres nothing inherintly cringe about someone doing this in public, its the fact that she filmed it like a twat that makes people not like it. i hate people filming ever little bit of their lives, thats what is truly sad my dude.

[@LadyNari773]

@@rhyswhittington8759 then just dont watch it. what is truly sad is other people living their lives and not bothering you and you hating it.

[@dman6093]

It's not anger because "oooh, how dare they be happy IN MY SOCIETY!" It's aggravating because it's grown people acting like children with no sense of awareness or irony. "ZOMG FOAM" is middle-school humor that is annoying to be around in real life, and shaking so you get a huggy is five year old behavior and you shouldn't be proud of acting like a 5-year old as an adult. Don't try and make something so simple into a "society hates happiness" thing.

[@yinggamer7762]

Inside high school “gym” class, it’s “embarrassing” to run the track. Only 5% do it, it’s really sad. Kind of off topic but still in the same category.

I hope that last woman is okay. Its shitty how all that stemmed from pretty much harmless cringe, yet also not really surprising bc the Internet can be the shittiest place to people who dont deserve it

I really felt for that woman who started crying. It seemed like she had good intentions, but maybe didn't realize that not everyone on the internet would see it that way. Sure, it was a bit cringe-worthy, but there's no need to be so mean to her, especially after watching the second follow-up video. It's pretty messed up that some people get their kicks from making someone really upset. Shame on them.

People die in war torn countries everyday get a perspective pal this shit means nothing

[@charlie4039k]

​@@theberserker_of_falconia​@theberserker_of_falconia so what you're saying is just because something worse is happening, anything that is bad, but not as bad compared it isn't worth acknowledging? Just because real people die in wars, it makes it okay to harass & send death threats? If someone robs, doxxes, assaults you, and you complain or speak out against it but someone says "people die in war torn countries everyday get a perspective pal this shit means nothing" that makes it okay? You're the one who needs to get a perspective.

What a dumb roastie 🤦‍♂️

[@lemonmeat]

another thing i'd like to say, the bigger reason the pancake lady was cringe is because after people pointed out the girl in the background or made jokes about it, the pancake lady eventually started making videos zoomed upclose to the girl and dogging on her.. for no valid reason. after she recieved backlash for THAT she continued to be extremely rude to people. SHE IS CRINGE. and deserves backlash (not death threats or whatever though of course,) as rude people are cringe and it's the golden rule. HOWEVER, the love surge lady didnt do anything. no one was harmed in the video or anything, she didnt start attacking people or being rude, she literally just existed. Yes, you can feel the cringe feeling, but just SCROLL AND IGNORE. going out of your way to harass someone for literally doing nothing wrong is 100x more cringe.

[@sharkray3938]

I believe that cringe is the only thing that makes people feel bad over something anymore. Murder, Betrayal, Scams. Thats all stuff you can get desensitized to. But cringe, no that will stick with you. It's not that cringe is the worst thing you can do, it's that people online are so bad at handeling the slightest annoyance of an emotion that they go on to send death threats, because they can't be desensitized to cringe.

[@autylynn]

I believe the girl dancing in public about food is cringe. But sending sa threats and death threats for two people in love isn’t okay. It’s disgusting.

[@ozitopolar]

They were still cringe and it wouldnt have been bad to get clowned on for it, but they took it way too far.

[@seyerus]

They’re not death threats, these people aren’t threatening to kill them, they’re wishing death upon them. Very different.

[@katie_cant_compute]

It’s a such high school behaviour, to think being mean- basically being a bully- is okay or funny but when it comes to embarrassment, that’s where the line is drawn. I guess because with being a bully comes power, embarrassment is literally the feeling of no power or control.

[@антоха_гандохин]

I don't even think that kids in high school still do, put these people in kindergarten 💀

[@Scyborg832]

The only lack of control in embarrassment is possibly the lack of control of your image. Other than that its a biiiig stretch to define embarrassment as "no power or control". Its literally just being perceived as outside the social norm by failing to meet societal expectations in performance or behavior. And then the shame of being evaluated negatively by others. THAT'S what embarrassment is.

[@Lil_Yuri]

High school is still too mature. Middle school.

[@katie_cant_compute]

@@Scyborg832 yeah you’re right, in hindsight embarrassment doesn’t literally equate to no power. It just kind of feels like that in the moment. Yeah, loss of control over your image/ reputation is a good way to put it.

[@michaels.3709]

I'm not a psychologist/sociologist, so folks with that background, please chime in. I remember seeing somewhere that it's a universal human trait (and possibly of all primates) to take social rejection very hard because, back when our ancient ancestors lived as small, wandering groups, being socially shunned was akin to a death sentence. Those social groups were vital to survive, and so being alone was almost a guarantee that you wouldn't last long. So over millenia, a high sensitivity to social norms and social expectations evolved to connect a reaction of disgust with behavior we viewed as "outside social acceptability". So "Cringe" could just the modern incarnation of this "social survivalist" evolved behavior.

[@icecreamaddictroxas]

I've heard of this too

[@janinebelleestrada7096]

​@@icecreamaddictroxasisn't that like an instinct that if someone does something weird or acts weird even for views in social media are a sign of an unwell individual in the eyes of strangers. You don't wanna add ill individuals into your group if you don't want and the others to get sick. Just as how the rejected male lions form their own group after being thrown out of a pride.

[@skinni_the_P00hBear]

We mightve studied this in Social Psychology because this sounds very familiar

[@tommibear4013]

This sounds about right. I should also add that we humans are social creatures, and interaction is very important to us. When we have that many negative interactions with other humans, it can cause serious emotional and psychological damage, causing problems with self confidence, social anxiety, and possibly isolating oneself to shut them off from the negative experiences (which unfortunately also shuts them off from positive interactions as well)

[@lbow5479]

"Why is cringe the worst thing you can do online as a content creator?" Because lots of content consumers are teenagers who, by cosmic law, will spend this phase of their lives obsessing over how others see them. They hunger for attention yet live in constant fear of ~being embarrassed~ Only the humiliation of their peers can truly sustain them. Some teens never grow up, instead taking the form of insecure internet goblins who feed on the tears of cyberbullied children.
