When someone ghosts out of shame, usually temporary.
This happens after doing something they swore they wouldn't do, or that they feel guilty about having done.
Can be used among good friends, because friends don't usually permanently ghost, but they do ghost temporarily out of shame.

When you fart in class but your crush is sitting next to you, so to save yourself from death by embarrassment, you look over at that one crazy popular person, pinch your nose, and yell "EWWW. YOU NERD. YOU SMELL LIKE MY GRANDMA. SHE'S DEAD."

Sheep shaming is the past time of radical leftist groups which involves shaming people because they are voicing their opinions or standing up for their rights. The sheep who are the target of sheep shaming receives threats, ridicule, and also sometimes hate mail until they become paranoid and sheepish. This practice was banned ones however it was reinstated when people started to become more aggressive and brave.

A kind of en-masse guilt trip spread by newspapers and other media. Has its roots in archaic beliefs/notions of deference and paternalism that go a long way to fortifying nationalist sentiments and spreading xenaphobia. You only feel national shame if you swallow that sort of bullshit.

Trigger-shaming (verb):
1. An act of deliberate humiliation or degradation inflicted on a triggered person (or non-person) after their attempt to create a safe space through positive expression.
2. A tactic of embarrassment by those who disagree with one's right to be triggered. Most often used by individuals who are themselves triggered, but hide behind bullying to belong to the heteronormo-nativty scene and submit to societal pressures.
