I think that's the wrong angle to take.
People who obsess over cringe are people who desperately need to find someone to feel better about. It's a symptom of low self esteem and self-loathing, amplified by internet-powered vicious cycles.
That MAY mean that that person is also "cringey" by someone's reckoning, but that framing traps you in the same framework of self-loathing.
This is an extremely toxic mindset, and it is something that you should always work hard to break yourself out of.
