Fake Outrage

Fake outrage, usually generated as a way of trying to create a controversy for the purpose of political smearing. Often used as a weapon of both left and right-wing tards who may or may not use threats to achieve their goals. Usually involves but is not limited to emotional appeals involving issues such as gay rights issues, racism, religion, etc.

These individuals can be easily identified by refusing to engage in logical debate on said issues, because they either are incapable of doing so or they are purposely doing it to 'stir the pot.' Instead, they regurgitate talking points in an attempt to appear educated on a topic when they really aren't.
