An internet user (usually on tumblr, discord, or reddit) who makes convoluted claims that a group, event, or idea is morally wrong in order to make themselves seem morally right. Most of the times, their methods involve claiming that something completely innocent and irrelevant is bigoted in some elaborate way. They are common in fandom spaces.
"I've been getting so much hate for writing characters X and Y as romantic in my fanfiction because some virtue shark had to accuse me of "perpetuating the belief" that male and female characters can't be friends. That's not even something I said!

Get the The Shark Effectmug. A word often used to describe dangerous dog breeds such as Bullterriers (Pitbull, Stafford) and Mastiffs (Rottweiler, Dogo Argentino, Boerboel) because they tend to have large jaws, sharp teeth and muscular bodies, which goes with the ability to severely injure and kill other humans and animals.
"My crappy neighbour recently bought an American Pitbull Terrier, the jaw was so huge that it reminded me of some kind of land shark. I heard they kill more people than all other breeds combined!"
