I wasn't really asking for examples of people that aren't cringe or something like that. I was asking for examples for something that is bad in the eyes of OP. My bad for not specify.

serious answer to my question towards op

"be cringe but free" with the condition of "enables no harm & is not generally immoral", seems clear in principle

but ig it's also fair to note that a lot of how we interpret "cringe" & "harm" & "immoral" can be relativistic even when there are definitive expectations that a general impression of a society might have (and tangibly material-emotional-psychological effects), afaik

up to op if they wanna give their take, but if my opinion is an ok substitute then cringe is definitely exemplified by the "horny on all-ages forum + it's not that bad if it's fiction, therefore why should i have any substantive concern" vibe, which i think you're kind of ok about moderating so far, maybe, maybe

it's not that you have to feel guilty at all times or something, shame doesn't seem particularly constructive at all. i greatly doubt you interact with 15y/o girls online or irl and creep on them or something, i have far more faith in you than to assume that-- plus you're generally someone that seems at least somewhat introspective and considerate enough to draw these kinds of distinctions, but you're also a bit poorly-regulated so it seems like you don't know what to do with yourself other than escape to something else

and that can easily become a problem when it sabotages your relationships with women (and everyone else for reasons i could expand on, but of course probably not in any attraction-oriented capacity), and/or when it allows you to minimize/dismiss the underlying correlative patterns people associate with this kind of indifference and indulgence. idrk if that intrinsically says anything about you, or how much, if at all

but that's probably at least part of the "cringe"
insofar as how i think of it, it's really primarily in the realm of cringe (no more, no less) until further demonstrable that it's intersecting with irl problems, because then it has a definitively tangible effect on your perception of people

if you've heard something generalized-but-precedented like "men only seem to like the idea of women rather than the actual complicated flawed human beings themselves (such that any flaws a man might appreciate are selective and sometimes even trivial)", then this is probably an example of how fictional attraction can intersect with real life, because it seems to intuitively be common enough an effect given other contexts that approximate this

...

i apologize, though, for being kind of maybe(?) personally targeted about psychoanalyzing what i've seen of you. just wanted to give at least some kind of possible answer before people shitpost in sarcastic irony all over it, because the questions themselves seem genuine to me

yes (i'm not sure if i understand the tone here, it seems sarcastic)?

and humans have conventionally been emotional creatures whose health often depends on psychological and/or social wellbeing (like depression, anhedonia, loneliness, impulsive anger, paralyzing grief), with somatic effects extending throughout their bodies as well as many characteristics like volition/motivation, ego, clarity of mind, dissociative detachment from the body's needs, et cetera

with the internet, it appears there existed a primacy of sardonic/sarcastic people who found it more reasonable to distance themselves from any emotional consequence, finding any reaction from other people to merely be funny. that would approximate my loose interpretation of what would be known as "trolling". as a consequence, there was also the expectation that people stop caring, and simply not take anything personally, and that the fault lies with the offended party, not the people creating the environment of offense (or otherwise absolving responsibility for consequence)

related to this, is the discourse of "offense =/= harm". opinions on that seem to vary wildly, but if we're speaking consequentially with regard for relative experience, it's not difficult to imagine that trolling is therefore possible to argue as being a form of comedy with *the potential* to cause harm

it's generally pretty important not to minimize the extent of what emotion can do-- and i hope you don't mean to be deliberately obtuse about this, if you were saying this to be sarcastic/ironic. if not, i apologize for... this, though i suppose it at least elaborates on the point

Your point only gets muddier if you do so. Even if you're right, showing it by trolling can be easily interpreted wrongly, and in general, it is just a shitty way to express your point. Why not just say the point?

some people are so terminally online and combative when their world views are challenged that the only way to get thru to them is to be just as terminally online and combative. I'm not talking about trite youtube comment trolling just to piss ppl with blank avatars and randomized usernames off, that all sucks and those folks aren't going to accept your point anyway
