An interesting study would be “outrage” culture. It seems that social media and global connections certainly exacerbated our feeling of seeing or being closer to other cultures and countries. And feeling that what is different can be scary. It may also have started with the industrialization and its effects on becoming aware of stuff outside your locale, and ofcourse missionary work in the colonized world. From local accents, local customs, local dresscodes that pretty disappeared in these two hundred odd years. Only recently do we see lots of reclamations and restoration of that (and sometimes a form neoism where the original as completely disappeared)
