Know Shaming

''Know Shaming'' is the petty social act of making someone feel smaller or stupid for literally not having known the information someone is telling them. Know shaming can occur in social or academic discourse, but also in interactions around media or celebrity consumption.

Those who know

a term used by braindead Gen Alpha kids to show the absolute monumental trauma given by understanding the context of a image or clip.

Often it displays a regular trollface and then a disfigured, dark trollface. The dark trollface is to show 'those who know'.
