Distribution of cringe

[an exponential graph is shown] GLOBAL CRINGE DISTRIBUTION Differences in the perception of cringe between countries are taken into account Cringe levels are adjusted and expressed in international cringe units The average cringe levels are barely enough to make it in a high cringe country 50% of the world’s population lives with very little daily cringe

[a professor explains] As you can see on the graph above, we live in a society™ in which the distribution of cringe is very unequal

[the professor keeps going] The closer you get to the top, the more cringe is concentrated in the hands of a small elite

[the professor concludes] And at the very top is Elon Musk, who has reached maximum cringe levels

    Sometimes good people are the most cringe though. Remember Hilary Clinton? “Pokemon Go? Pokemon GO TO THE POLLS”

      Except that she’s an awful example of “good people”, what with being a war criminal Neoliberal shill for the military industrial complex (including AIPAC and other Israel-related corruption factories) and other billionaire-centric interests 🤷

      She sure as hell is cringetastic, though.
