Call-out culture
Call-out culture is when individuals publicly point out or criticize others for problematic behavior, language, or actions, often through social media. It aims to hold people accountable and promote social awareness. While intentions can be to encourage growth and change, it can sometimes lead to public shaming or controversy. The practice emphasizes transparency and responsibility but can also create tension or defensiveness. Overall, it's a modern way for communities to address issues openly, though the impact depends on how it’s practiced.
