Compromised Cringe

The internal confliction of when something is cringey but you don't say so because a person you're close to enjoys it.

This term originated on a Pewdiepie Minecraft livestream while discussing TikTok.

"If my grandma did a TikTok I'd be like, 'oh that's awesome!'- but inside I'm like, 'bro grandma that's so heckin cringe dude'."

"There needs to be a word for that feeling - compromised cringe!"
