This is an outrage! - Princess Donut

This is why I abandon morality and just do what I feel like doing.

For me it seems to lead to making conscious choices at the store, setting up a monthly donation for a charity I believe in and generally trying to indiscriminately treat people as I would prefer to be treated (I just don't expect reciprocity, because fuck morals).

This is a ridiculous and unbelievable statement! How DARE you.

I don't know if it is in general but social media has definitely made it so (or amplified it.)

I think moral outrage is one of the only forms of socially acceptable bullying, ie, you can say anything to someone who is transgressing whatever the trendy social outrage is. (Give someone shit for wearing child labour and "you don't know..." Etc.)

Well yeah, feeling like you're better than others/have a higher level of elite thought feels amazing.

Anything that produces the Good Feeling Chemicals™ can be addictive. That includes smug superiority.

(Mmm, yeah... That's the good stuff... 🤤)

Man, every time someone acts shockingly immorally I just get sad, and if I'm mad that's a secondary feeling. None of it is addictive. I'm addicted to people doing the right thing when it's difficult. 🤷

I cannot disagree more,

This is just thoughts to become part of the mob of the problem, with every problem, because moral-ethical outrage is the beginning, there are tons to be outraged about & it so intersectionalistic that all are affected by all problems!
