Is Outrage Culture Turning Us Into 'Mean Girls'?

from Big Small Talk · host LiSTNR

Outrage culture, cancel culture, and the rise of the “mean girl” accusation - this week, Hannah is back on Small Talk to help me unpack what’s really going on in comment sections right now, and why it feels like other women are increasingly the target. From the algorithm rewarding the angriest opinions, to comments being used to shape our own views, we get honest about our thoughts on the pile-on.  We dive into the evolution of “girls girl” culture, and how a once lighthearted label has been weaponised into something far more cutting. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
