An unintended action or behavior that ends up being offensive or controversial to others. This typically occurs when someone is unaware of the cultural or social implications of their actions, leading to misunderstandings and potential discomfort for others. It is not deliberate, but it still can have a significant impact on relationships and social dynamics.
Hey, did you see Jake's new hairstyle? He let his hair get all tangled and messy, and now it looks like dreadlocks. I don't think he meant to offend anyone, but some people are taking it as cultural appropriation. It's totally a passive offensive situation.

Get the passive aggressive antagonistmug. A special breed of passive-aggressive behavior that feels nice on the surface but is completely fake, emotionally empty, and served with a side of sarcasm. It’s the art of acting supportive, polite, or complimentary — but you know deep down they don’t mean a single word of it.

Examples:
“Oh wow, you wore that? So brave of you.”
“Thank you for your opinion. It's definitely... something.”
“Of course I’ll help. I love picking up other people’s slack!”
