Tone-Deaf is an internet slang term used to describe a person who lacks sensitivity or awareness when discussing or reacting to certain topics. They fail to understand the seriousness or impact of their words or actions, often unintentionally causing offense or demonstrating a significant lack of empathy towards others.
Examples:
– Someone commenting “Just get over it!” on a post about a person expressing their struggles with mental health is being tone-deaf by disregarding the complexity of the issue and showing a lack of empathy.
– Sharing a meme joking about a tragic event or making light of a sensitive topic without considering the potential hurt it may cause demonstrates being tone-deaf.
