Also there are examples of what people see as outrage that is in fact manufactured to create the narrative that a subset of people or unreasonable and constantly seeking outrage.
Not to mention it was reported and widely known that Russian bots were pretending to be all party affiliations and spreading fake outrage in order sow chaos. People like to point a lot to examples on social media as examples of outrage when those are the most susceptible to bots and instigators. Then you have Cernovich weaponizing fake outrage to try and get people fired and being successful at it, and that has a dual purpose of creating outrage fatigue for when legitimate criticism arises.
Speaking of, people mistake criticism as outrage a lot, which then creates scenarios of the person responding to the criticism being much more outraged than the person presenting criticism on a subject. If I find a Christmas songs lyrics written decades ago to be creepy out of context today it doesn't mean I am upset or outraged about it, but rather it would be worth exploring the context around those lyrics at the time they were written and if that song works today. Which now I have a greater understanding of the song Baby it's Cold Outside thanks to someone raising criticism about it. So next time you see someone offering a different take or criticism of something totally "normal" from your childhood, listen to their criticism and dive into the history. At worst you will come away with a better understanding on the subject matter, and may find no one was actually outraged.
