Thoughts on the Cringe Channel?

[TheAnimatorOfficial 567]

Normally I actually enjoy cringe of some Bronies because A, they're funny and B, the community treats it as satire (example: FilthyFrank).

 

But the Cringe Channel, especially the Facebook page, is just depressing to see. Nothing against the admins but the community is where the line is crossed. They seem to legitimately want us shot dead and don't know what comedy is, not to mention spamming unfunny memes and proudly calling themselves nazis.

 

I may not be a PC policeman but this is a lightyear too far.

I have something of a love-hate relationship with these places. On one hand, I totally get why these things are cringey and can find them pretty funny sometimes. However, the most I do is chuckle and perhaps think the person needs to grow up a bit. I certainly don't find it funny if they're is mentally ill or if the material was taken from a private space. My problem with a lot of cringe communities is that they go way overboard and abuse the 'internet is a wild west' mentality as a cover for behaviour which would be completely unacceptable in any other context.

It's not like there isn't cringeworthy things in the Brony community. Some of it is legitimate, but often it just annoys me. Publicly humiliating people is what really bothers me, especially if they haven't done that much.

 

Most of the cringe posts are pretty much saying the entire community is weird and cringeworthy, which is what annoys me.

 

They do the same thing with the furry community too. Again, not saying there aren't "cringe" things in it either, but most of it is attacking the whole community, which is what bothers me.
