First, you are conflating being ashamed with people shaming them thers.

Second, it doesnt follow that shaming 1 thing means shaming everything. And surely you can recognize that there exist some things that people should be ashamed of?

And surely you can recognise that others can have a very different view of what's shameful, that's at odds with your own rosey view of it as a tool against self destructive behaviour?

Various religions and political groups have used and continue to use shame against the lgbt community, using monikers like sinful or perverse to shame them for who they are by grading them against some flawed ideal that they themselves often fail to attain.

It doesn't work selectively, if society can shame you into not posting homophobic tweets, they will do so with everything else non-conforming?

Please head over to X and observe the homophobic tweets.

Are you fine with both these tweets and people smoking fentanyl in public, or can social pressure do some good in both cases?

In your society girls go around in underwear? nice!

Sorry, I really had to :)

Maybe they are permanently stuck in the 80s and only allow baggy suit pants.

Or I guess… it’s probably a bit darker and they are not talking about a western country.
