I don't think it's all 3rd hand.
There's definitely a lot of 2nd hand outrage. Look at Reddit. There's tons of popular subs that exist for no reason other than to shit on other people for doing certain things. Every now and then we get a HN thread where it's basically just everyone bitching about whatever thing the article is about. I'd call that 2nd hand outrage.
